KIIIL.1860 Posted July 7, 2020 Share Posted July 7, 2020 The list of changes for the warrior seems positive, but is that so?increased damage conditions , total PvP bonus and ....... "Break Enchantments" and "Loss Aversion" for PvE ??? it was funny for me .What do you think? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lan Deathrider.5910 Posted July 7, 2020 Share Posted July 7, 2020 Anet is scared to buff warrior, so they are taking baby steps. OH weapons do need reworks/buffs but what Anet did today isn't quite there yet. The OH Sword change on Impale pulsing cripple could be nice though, and more might on Rip fuels sustain, but I doubt many people will take it still.

LordTemujin.5498 Posted July 7, 2020 Share Posted July 7, 2020 Warrior is now almost useless in WvW ... Sure they buffed a couple of abilities... BUT with the rise of scourge pirateship , melee will be suicidal . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cryorion.9532 Posted July 7, 2020 Share Posted July 7, 2020 This balance patch did not solve any issue with warrior. No 300 sec cd trait changes, useless buffs that are too situational, offhand weapon buffs won't make them suddenly usable... like think about it, is damage the reason why sword and mace offhands were bad all this time? Cripple pulse on sword 4 is really not enough, they would have to add some better synergy with cripple like getting fury or might per cripple, etc.Sad and disappointing how they suddenly changed the powercreep reduction mentality and buffed professions that didn't need any buffs (or at least tone down other overperforming things at the same time)... like wtf...

Rodrick.1942 Posted July 7, 2020 Share Posted July 7, 2020 still can play condi bunker zerker for solo roam or tank spb for zerg fight. i dont see the future of power build, right now, even after this positive patch LOLSince that power 2.0 patch, more and more people switch to condi bunker build, in the meantime all power damage are gud so hard. so if you want to be effective as old power build, either play glass zerker and team up with carry Healer, or more defense-oriented spb but that make you unable to fight against all classes that run condi bunker build like core necro or mirage alone.( because you basically hit like wet noodle to them) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smoosh.2718 Posted July 7, 2020 Share Posted July 7, 2020 I am surprised they didnt add a brave stride icon on when its ready to be deployed.But yes overall this has changed nothing on the warrior other than the chance of landing 1 movement skill in 10s.Some of these number tweeks dont fix things that are jarring and so 2013. Sword Rip is a horrible skill to use due to having 4s to catch your target be inside them and then rip the sword, else it misses.I do hope we see a balance patch that brings something more than 'agressive changes' that were advertised.

Ferus.3165 Posted July 7, 2020 Share Posted July 7, 2020 the offhand weapons sword and mace need a complete rework. Clunky and slow animations, low range or slow projectiles. None of them feel like you "fight" with those weapons. Number crunching won't do anything for those weapons because they are so outdated. There are many other skills that need an update aswell, like hundred blades and the sword f1. Those skills were good in 2012 but today they are damn worthless.

Many of the enemies at least have Might, or effects that create Might for their allies. I've used that spell before the buff too, because it's an easy way to aoe tag mobs without using a weapon skill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lan Deathrider.5910 Posted July 8, 2020 Share Posted July 8, 2020 Well it helps SpB in FotM…Brave Stride change is nice though. PvE you never need another source of stab ever, but the 10s CD on the competitive side made it feel like it wasn't quite good enough. something like a 6-8s CD would flow better.

Psycoprophet.8107 Posted July 10, 2020 Share Posted July 10, 2020 Anets definition of aggressive buffs are like their balancing decisions, very confusing. The buffs they did were trivial and changed very little, the fact they stated they'll be watching these changes to assure they weren't to heavy handed shows their disconnect from this game and its classes almost to a humorous degree.What a joke!
