Rodrick.1942 Posted March 18, 2020 Share Posted March 18, 2020 I don't even know if I should continue to use war to roam. After they "fixed" spb's F1 again, I feel myself become pretty weak against everything, however if you use full divider build/durability rune and defense trait, it's indeed that you basically become immortal by spam F2, (even against a small roam group), but that's all. I feel like anet want to push warrior's position to front line meat wall much further, all u can do is take damage , cc , bootstrap, and pray.Solo roam is basically dead(unless you avoid all roam group you meet).There's one thing I noticed, berserk didn't get hit so hard...so it's possible to team up with support and u go full dps build (nearly to pve Zerker build but a little adjustment for survivability) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jobber.6348 Posted March 18, 2020 Share Posted March 18, 2020 Warrior is more duelist like rather than a very tanky 1 shot machine like before.Good Warriors won't suffer that much from the increased TTK, but bad Warriors who were carried mainly by lucky Arcing Slices and Whirlwind Attacks are gonna straight up die to everything.

Right now Burn DH is WAY too powerful even with only half condi gear. I left my legendary armor, backpiece and trinket on my warrior last night lol, so I was running around with only 1k condi damage sans might stacks. Still was melting people. Getting an 8k burn tick is not hard right now, and I was getting 5k ticks last night even after handicapping myself inadvertently.Reaper with Lich Form up is also REALLY strong right now since Lich Form's damage didn't get nerfed. Use Lich 5 to debuff their Vitality, Lich AA for 6k crits.@Yasai.3549 said:@"Psycoprophet.8107" said:Lmao means a lot from a rev player. War is weak as $hit right now.

Looks pretty balanced, potentially 5k life back if you get a good FC in. Aristocracy is a strong rune pick, and with some of our might sources nerfed I expect more people will run it. RedShark runs something a little similar for zerging, but this one looks like a good roaming build. Have you tried Merciless Hammer for the adrenaline gain?Warrior is still pretty durable on the whole. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you tried Merciless Hammer for the adrenaline gain?Warrior is still pretty durable on the whole.Merciless Hammer not that great tbh.The entire build revolves around Might makes Right for Endurance and Sustain per stack of Might gained (which is alot)If yu land a single FC, it's 300 HP no questions asked, if yu land it on multiple people, it's more, and even more when combined with Draining Rune.This is also lessens the risk of taking T3 camps solo. How the build works :FC/Shield Bash/Stomp/BullRush are yur main Aristocracy poppers.Use them liberally (except Stomp, it's a stunbreak).Even if the hit doesn't disable the target, it procs anyway because Body Blow doesn't say yu MUST disable, only when yu land a disable. Might makes Right will synergize extremely well with this over Merciless Hammer for EnduranceMore Endurance = More Reckless Dodge = Damage If yu really really really want more Adrenaline, use Signet Elite.It's more than enough, plus doubles as a chunky emergency 1.2k health heal if needed (again when used with Might is Right) If yu feel EXTREMELY TROLLY, run full Zealot's Trinkets.Yur Might makes Right will heal for fatter amounts, but yu lose alot of damage.

I'm well aware of MMR. MH has no ICD on the adrenaline gain, so one FC that hits 2 people gives 20 adrenaline with MH traited. It becomes more of a discussion of what you need more of, adrenaline or small heals and endurance.Also, go full troll. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RUS.9265 Posted November 8, 2020 Share Posted November 8, 2020 I've been playing a warrior for about a year now, mostly on wvw. Avarage score of mine was 1:10 win/death in 1 on 1. Now it's about 3:10 and getting better. Never tried any other classes, cause warrior is a reall challenge for me. And that's what i like about him.Yes, arenanet want to see the warrior as a front line meat. I've tryed many builds, but tanky SB with hammer and mace/horn is my best card in zerg so far. CC is my all, and pretty allways being "last man standing" with guardian. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thx Anet, perfect balance!!problem is not it takes 1000% skills, if it ever took skill to begin with I'm fine.anet literally made warrior lowest skill cap class of all. every single plat 2+ player maining other classes can instantly pick up any meta warrior build and be effective.like tempest support, took a long time to practice and even required ele mains to be good.but healbreaker, literally everyone can play.there's literally 0 benefit for you to main warrior for a long time, because it doesn't take much to play it at a competitive level (plat2+) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Myror.7521 Posted November 8, 2020 Share Posted November 8, 2020 @felix.2386 well you know he just mean power warrior not the Healbraker version of it. The Healbraker Warrior is legit so braindead and so unfun to play .... me as a Warr main since release playing it once and leave it behind after one match cause its so effektive while need like 0 skill. For the Power Version of Warrior @kenshinsoul.3604 is actually right. Warrior on Power Build is actually one of the (if not the) hardest Build to play well in the curent state of meta..... you would ask why?. Well cause they overnerf Warrs healskills hard af while do all its cc skills to 0 Damage (it was like 4k hitting Bullscharge) so Warriors Builds do not only loose tons of heal ... it also loose tons of damage while the whole meta is full of blind spam skills what is the hardest counter thing for warrior. SO Healwarrior is actually ezy to play low skill high effortWHILE Power Warrior (all Builds litterly) doing so low damage and get so low sustain that it need high skill to play but you will get also low effort from playing it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apolo.5942 Posted November 26, 2020 Share Posted November 26, 2020 skill demand and class performance should never be linked.That is the perfect recipe for trash tier classes that never see play. (aka pretty much warrior right now). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Myror.7521 Posted November 26, 2020 Share Posted November 26, 2020 @felix.2386 well if you rly think Warrior is the easiest class to play then sry but your totaly wrong. It is the easiest class to play against bad players .... that is true. If you go and fight other rly good players it is just like one of the hardest classes. Why? simply cause as you said the class is rly easy to understand mechanic wise BUT that made it also easy for enemys to evade your hardest hitting CC and Damage skills. It end ub in a mutch mutch harder match ub, cause of you need to time skills perfectly and just fool the enemy by fake casting skills etc. Other classes are just then hard mechanic wise but if your good with the mechanics its easier to play against better players, cause moste mechanics safe your life and not the fact that you fool the enemy with some tricks.

Low skill floor, but high skill ceiling whereas something like a daredevil or dragon hunter is a higher skill floor, but lower skill ceiling.
