Sovarica.4368 Posted January 26, 2020 Share Posted January 26, 2020 This util section feels like an empty fridge you're always looking but you never find anything good.There's too many utils that are never used and are taking too much space with the small handful of skills that we already have. It just promotes generic toxic build diversityWe have Ranger spirits for one.. I have never seen any ranger use any. Warrior banners haven't seen any wars use them since core release. Some of the DH skills like the one that reveals shroud is pretty useless in PvP. Elementalist weapons I have never seen an ele use the Lightning Hammer thing in PvP haven't seen Frostbow in a long time. Warrior ''Fear me'' is never used that warrior kick skill I haven't seen anyone use that either. I'm sure there's more and I know a lot of us look closely at utils and never seem to find anything that works or is fun. I hope things will get worked out but what do you guys think of the unused utils? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Za Shaloc.3908 Posted January 26, 2020 Share Posted January 26, 2020 We'll see what happens in the balance patch, where they have stated they are reviewing every trait and skill. One can hope that the dead utility skills have a bit of life breathed into them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dantheman.3589 Posted January 26, 2020 Share Posted January 26, 2020 Change thing just because they are uncommon or not seen on streams doesn’t make it right all the time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fueki.4753 Posted January 26, 2020 Share Posted January 26, 2020 It could be worse.Arenanet could force you to have bad utility skills in your slots on every profession, not only on Revenant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One can hope that the dead utility skills have a bit of life breathed into them.I'd suffice just to have six skills of every type on all Core professions, and not just Elites. One of the balance issues is that Elites can specialise into using the same kind of skill in every slot but Core players need to skip heal or elite slot, etc.This affects alot of traits, some runes (like those that trigger on Shouts or Wells), and such too..

Alin.2468 Posted January 26, 2020 Share Posted January 26, 2020 The build of this game and it's balance is around PvE, not around PvP/WvW. The majority of players actually play PvE, and the big money pit is there. So it's normal for the game to appear like many spells are not for PvP, because it's not mainly focused on PvP.

Its so long that its going to rarely have uptime use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
