Not this topic again....

Let me guess. Ranger?

I would love an update to Skirmish Chests (as long as they update old ones).

Nothing in them that makes them worth opening.

PvE Condi Berzerker.

What else is there?

Or... we could increase the gold per hour for WvW instead?

Even with boosts the normal lw reward track is something like 3-4g per hour.

What legendaries exactly?

Weapons? Armor?

And how is Playing PvP/WvW a grind?

When was the last time you have seen a Berserker outside of Raids.

Or a Power Berserker?

Hi!

* Berzerker has not seen any typ of rework or changes.

* Dragonhunter had some changes.

* Herald had a rework.

* Chrono had a rework.

* Reaper got buffed alot.

* Tempest got buffed alot.

* Daredevil had some changes.

* Druid had some changes.

* Scrapper had a rework.

Sooooo.... if im correct here.

Berzerker should be the next HoT Elite Spec that gets a rework.

Dragonhunter is fine but could need some attention.

I dont think Daredevil needs to many changes.

Lets pray to the Balance Gods that the Berzerker is next.

Make it playable in PvP.

Make the power variant playable in PvE.

If you play Ranger then its clear why WvW players get hostile.

Seeing a Ranger Icon in Squads is pure frustration for WvW players.

Especially when the Ranger has alot of AP.

Then it feels like trolling.

Banner in WvW? What is this? 2012?

And condi problems on Warrior?

How?

Medi Scrapper was my favorite build to run in WvW before they deleted it last balance patch.

But i seriously don’t know what wrong with what i said.

With this balance patch, you don’t have to change gear.

Only one trait change from before.

And at max 2 utility changes.

(And why did your post not show up for me?)

> Feel free to post your tempest build that heals for more with more efficiency...hope it doesn't take 1 week worth of reading all ele traitlines though.

That is not even a good firebrand build and why no utilities?

I will post a build later (im at work sorry) but soothing mist alone is like 10-11k healing per second permanent.

Firebrands job is not healing alone.

Also the only good healing on Firebrand is his heal tome.

Outside of it, the healing he does is simply not worth talking about.

But hey, its you who gets outhealed by not even a good Firebrand build.

You do realize that Firebrand is garbage at ACTUAL healing people.

If you think the numbers Firebrand can push out are high..... then you never played a proper healing build.

Tempest outhealed Firebrand before the patch by a huge margin.

L2P issue.

Step 1) Build a Mediscrapper like normal.

Step 2) Slap the purge gyro on it + maybe flamethrower for a 6 sec cd blast.

Good job! You now play the new buffed medi scrapper.

Diet Bait. No spices.

Was strongly against it but would kill to keep it!

Love it!

I was strongly against the Mount but i LOVE it now.

I only had this Kitty for a few hours and i will stomp everyone trying to take it away from me!

Do you play Base Ranger?

That would explain alot.

> @"felincyriac.5981" said:

Fun Fact.

Mesmer is also not Meta for Zerging.

Roamer Scrapper.

Roamer like Mirage or Deadeye have the decensy to kill you in under 1 second.

Scrapper has enough cc to keep you in place for ages but not enough dmg to kill you in a timely manner.

/sit JUST KILL ME ALREADY!!!!!

Double Mirage!

You know.... i thought about Soulbeast.

Technically it is almost identical to Hammer Rev.

Both have Utility Skills with the main purpose of buffing your allies.

(And Stances are amazing)

Both only use minimal traits for support and the rest for dmg increase.

Both have an offensive Aura.

Spotter/Assasins Presence

Both would run a mix of Marauder/Berzerker/Valkyrie gear.

The ONLY difference between Soulbeast and Hammer Herold are the weapons.

Rev Hammer is Amazing in zergfights.

Ranget has no usefull weapon for zerging.

Believe me. If Soulbeast had Revs Hammer.... ohhh boy would he be meta!

The only way for Ranger to become Meta would be to give Ranger an Ranged AoE Weapon thats not based on Projectiles.

There are two main problems with making Ranger Viable in Zerg Fights.

1. You would have to change sooooo much with Ranger.

2. Ranger has to compete against other classes for Squad space.

If you would go the Support role, you would make druide compete with:

Firebrand

Heal Rev

Medi Scrapper

Heal Tempest

Good luck on this front.

For the dmg role:

Scourge

Weaver

Hammer Rev

Good luck with the only one „good“ Zerg Weapon being Warhorn.

Buff Rifle Dmg.

Its only used in openworld fun builds

and it sucks even there.

Make Longbow F1 10 Tragets and tick faster.

Maybe after over 6 years Warrior gets a good Aoe for Openworld farming.

Buff GS in PvE only.

Same reason as Rifle.

Buff Power Berzerker.

Redesign useless traits like Brave Stride.

Choose your Fighter!

Firebrand

Scourge

Herold

Weaver
