We have arrived at an ideal meta

[NorthernRedStar.3054]

Where every beginner can stand still while doing damage and the enemy players can't possibly punish them fast enough because they're a bunker (or support, same thing nowadays really), bunker condi or revenant.

But let's keep our torches lit for thieves, aye.

[Leonidrex.5649]

yes buff sb5, cuz it bugged once.

[Avatar.3568]

No, Rev and guard are stupid, we are since a year in a bunker meta, this is not beginner friendly this is dumbed down

People wanted it, people got it. At some point everyone will get bored of it and quit (beside bots lol). AI plays itself then (insert terminator, matrix emote here).

[ollbirtan.2915]

Totally agree, thief needs nerfs! Thanks!

Who can stand Still? With Meme Guardians and Necros the entire field is burning and tormenting, with ccs.

On the bright side, all these condi bunkers dominating the mode are giving me a legitimate reason to play support core engi :^)

Enjoy that unironically, you (and begrudgingly Woodstock) earned it.

Shrug

Let people enjoy the meta they created.

Real players stand still every time

Bunker meta is noob friendly and a role. And makes games more interesting.Pick a friendly meta that new players can adjust to quickly or old meta where everyone was heavy dps and a fb scourge duo for the bunk. More people left pvp for new player and old cus the madness of it than ever before.In this meta new players are joining cus things like mm necro* that ain’t a problem, role play supports and simple dh reaper is easy to get teeth into and learn. And all of them are easy to understand. I would of kept war pre nurf to.Only prob I see is bunker rev as it’s not noob friendly at all 1 good player could hold vs 3 gold . But every other build would have to kite out and give them point

Nothing had changed

Well I agree the new fb scourge meta will be core grd and bunk rev both hard to kill and together unkillable

[GuriGashi.5617]

Agree that the meta feels more enjoyable than in the past months. Heralds need a slight nerf and it would be perfect

Guardian main.

[Myror.7521]

@snoow.1694

Nerf conditions, renegate shortbows power dps, herald dps (only a bit), and in general some bunker stuff (core guardian/ spellbraker fullcounter cc(for real give it low damage back instead of that 1 second daze) and the meta would be perfect in my opinion. xd

I missed what made Gw2 fun : fast paced action combat.Now everyone is just snail's pace non-action combat.

The issue isn't as much that the combat got slower. It did, and one could even argue it had to get slower. The issue is how they fundamentally flipped the old reward hierarchy around.

[Drakonhammer.2148]

I wasn't a fan of the <3s burst meta we had for a while, quite some time ago, but yeah, there needs to be a middle ground here. Some builds are stupidly durable without needing the skill to back it up atm, on the other hand there are trapper runes where you can bounce around in super speed and stealth to constantly break targeting on a specialisation that should not be able to do that as well.

NUUUURF STEAAALTH ! =)

[TheBigPlay.7504]

Nerf bunkers
