SoftFootpaws.9134 Posted March 24, 2020 Share Posted March 24, 2020 Warrior is mostly meant to be a tank, hence their rediculously high base stats, their access to Mace/Shield, etc. Spellbreaker takes this even further, although Berserker does give them a pure DPS option if they want to take it. Expecting more damage on a class with the highest base stats, one of the highest condi clear rates, and one of the highest access to Weakness, Cripple, Immoblise, hard CC and Stability..Warrior has a low skill floor, but also a high skill ceiling, so more damage would make them simply unbeatable (War main, btw).But if you want a specific answer to why Warrior damage is so "low", look at classes like Guard, Ele, Thief, which must take Vitality, or some other defense. Warrior is balanced around having easy access to any stat set they want, even full glass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warriors aren’t weak. If you aren’t doing damage then it’s a build problem.It's not necessarily a build problem. The damage is definitely on the lower end, but it's much more based on actually hitting with your high damage skills. You can't just 1 shot with bulls charge into arcing slice anymore. True, but I mean the few weak warriors I’ve fought...nothing hits hard lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fantasylife.7981 Posted March 24, 2020 Author Share Posted March 24, 2020 the critical arcing slice which is like the biggest hitter is 4K while on Max DPS gear so zerker amulet+Soldier Rune this is not including might stack. Now you can't even stack might on warrior anymore after nerfs, I say 8sh is usually the range you are on might stack because they dissapear before reaching high. 4K criticals on a skill that gets blind and range is 150 is pretty clowning.

Crozame.4098 Posted March 24, 2020 Share Posted March 24, 2020 Wars not too bad in 5v5, but is shit in 2v2. And get hard countered by certain classes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its simply broken.That's because condi in general is over-tuned.Arenanet forgot (or actively avoided) toning it down together with power damage, despite it having been stronger than power before the changes-for-the-sake-of-changes patch.

monotony.4931 Posted March 25, 2020 Share Posted March 25, 2020 Condition damage in general is not overtuned.Core condition Engineer is still lackluster. Some professions can cleanse the conditions I apply almost instantaneously. Then their active and passive healing brings them back to full health. Those builds aren't even full support/bunker. They dish out considerable damage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I'm on top of the stairs on one side, and my opponent(let's say thief) ports to the other side; unless I have a ranged weapon, I have to RUN to the opposite side, up the staircase to the top to get the thief. By the time I get back up there the thief ports again!You can dodge or gs3 from 1 side to the other Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mortrialus.3062 Posted March 25, 2020 Share Posted March 25, 2020 Warriors are definitely not hitting crazy hard any more and I haven't been too impressed by them but I've seen builds with so much healing, cleanse and sustain they can literally stand still and not even attack you like a training golem and sustain indefinitely.
