KrHome.1920 Posted July 13, 2021 Share Posted July 13, 2021 (edited) I live in a parallel universe. I encounter a lot more bunkerbeasts in smallscale than scourges. Scourge is trash in anything but the zerg. Even with a pocket support it is incredibly easy to kill with a 2v1 focus in wvw. This is not pvp. We have actual damage, that melts barrier in the blink of an eye and superior cleansing sigil in wvw.

I'm fine with deleting them as well though. I'm curious, why you people try to push condi builds so much, while they should stay as support thing? 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So if you wanna get rid of conditions, well all those specs will need to be revamped, start writing up your suggestions. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kamikharzeeh.8016 Posted July 18, 2021 Share Posted July 18, 2021 i mean condi is pretty annyoing. resoluation doesn't help there a lot, and the removing of resistance in the old manner also wasn't good there. conditions are just too easy to spam, and allow people to run still big bulk. but yeah, any internal balancing the fighting system of gw2 had has been thrashed into the bin with feb2020 update anyways.... it is what it is. we can only hope anet doesn't make it even worse. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shiyo.3578 Posted July 18, 2021 Share Posted July 18, 2021 Every meta is unfun in this game. They "balance" the game but no meta is ever fun to play in. It's been an issue since 1.0. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kamikharzeeh.8016 Posted July 21, 2021 Share Posted July 21, 2021 it's rather like a "someone always complains" issue... just that it'd help to have people really understanding what they play and do in this format that Wvw is - and doing balances AROUND that meta. this never happened, so they scuffed it with feb2020 balancings. idk to who or what they listened, but stealing some dmg and making everything feel tons more bulky, slowing down the whole thing to maximum staleness... probably wasn't the smartest thing.

Arheundel.6451 Posted July 23, 2021 Author Share Posted July 23, 2021 Current smallscale "meta" is: condi herald, firebrand hybrid, holo/scrapper, scourge, Tempest warhorn . Like 3 teams out of 4 will run that cheese....AoE pull into Condi AoE spam, super tanky boonspamm with ress signet/glyph and that will take several decently played power specs to bring down....after at least 20-30m if lucky. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The issue is never a single condition, the issue is we have specs capable of pumping several stacks of different conditions on the target by using skills/traits on a very low CD/ICD and to make things worst ...... FIFO system = asinine implementation of condi clear where the condi user doesn't require any tactical thinking, it's all about spamming AoE condis on the target while abusing the passive sustain/tankiness of condi stats 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ArchonWing.9480 Posted July 23, 2021 Share Posted July 23, 2021 Yep, it's the supports that are the real villain! This thread in a nutshell: https://imgflip.com/i/5hf9pj 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loke.1429 Posted July 26, 2021 Share Posted July 26, 2021 (edited) stop trolling the op with your bs agenda. I completely agree with OP. The current meta is the worst i have played since beta. Tanky boonspam without any downsides, and brainless condi spam, extremely quick application of those also. My full bers power build is useless against this garbage. I also play tanky builds but its just boring gameplay. They dont die, I dont die. I log off. Edited July 26, 2021 by Loke.1429 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XenesisII.1540 Posted July 27, 2021 Share Posted July 27, 2021 But boon vs condi combat is teh best! 11 out of 10 boon ballers agree and love this combat! Their opinion is correct, and everybody else is wrong, and even if you do agree, you're wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kuma.1503 Posted July 27, 2021 Share Posted July 27, 2021 Meanwhile running around in WvW with this weaver build. I've almost forgotten what condis look like at this point. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alliances are around the corner, but balancing has nothing to do with that. So I really wouldn't expect any class balancing until after the expansion launches and we get to see how all the new broken stuff interacts with all the old broken stuff, like they did with PoF and the scourge massacre. Unless of course they plan any major combat/mechanic changes like they did before HoT with all the condition changes, but doesn't seem like it, or again it probably would be implemented around now. So don't get your hopes up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

schokelmei.8271 Posted July 29, 2021 Share Posted July 29, 2021 (edited) I still don't get the point here why we are talking about a condi meta, when any condition you apply at once is a boon for your team? It's basically the best that can happen when you get loaded with condis. Edited July 29, 2021 by gebrechen.5643 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigo.9037 Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 The only problem with conditions is the ones that can stack burst levels of condi. It’s intended to be DoT, but some specs apply so many stacks that it becomes a burst. Confusion , burn and torment come to mind. also about the condi roamer meta.. dude. Imagine if you got pulled into a nade bomb. You’d be dead before you could start clearing the condis from cherald. It’s not really the condis in that situation, it’s the aoe spam and supports.

kamikharzeeh.8016 Posted August 1, 2021 Share Posted August 1, 2021 anet should really revert the purity of purpose nerf... condispam atm isn't funny anymore. cannot be that u need a scrapper at every corner just so u dont get nearly oneshot by a condiburst. condis and cc are just too easy to stack and abuse.... with power dps numbers been absurdly low, the game probably really never has been as unbalanced as it currently is. full pirateship is working against zergs that aren't min-maxed, which are by far the most. really good zerg or even blobs nearly became a rarity.... if the new specs are providing strong condi options, this will be a big mess. time for 2 scrappers or two firebrand per party then, to stop too crazy pirateshipping... 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
