Full Counter becomes ridiculously powerful, the more opponents there are against a Spellbreaker. Someone had mentioned it before but I'll say it again: Full Counter should grant something like a 5,000 life barrier rather than a straight invuln. I also believe that Full Counter shouldn't be unblockable.

Off topic, are you playing again now Heim?

> @Aceofsppades.6873 said:
> I think most classes suffer from this problem.
Yes and No
NO
Mesmer can be power or condi
Guard can be power or condi
Engie can be power or condi
Thief can be power or condi
Weaver can be LR or Sage condi
All of which can be viable even high plat in ranked.
Never seen a condi soulbeast/ranger at that
YES
Classes are somewhat locked into mandatory traitlines like mesmer to inspiration
BUT
With my example above, the new especs provide that freedom for mirage, I don't even think the meta runs inspiration

Just tested with the pet, it's wing buffet doesn't push the downed. Your Wing Buffet in Beastmode does tho. So this a bug?

Well actually its 35. Don't forget to add the Beastmode is already on a 10 second CD to begin with.

Secondary complaints are that the power just isn't there, (Honestly, power ranger hasn't been decent since sword animation nerf.) , I can't swap pets while in Beastmode, and the F1-F3 aren't strong enough.

Needs A CC, It's an elite spec weapon that doesn't even synergize with its own Trait line. You cannot proc Twice as Vicious with MH dagger.

Kiting is the best solution and evade shatters, should be easily doable even in core ranger and lets not forget cleansing sigils, SoR, Bear stance even? It's just about timing it right. Spiritual Reprieve also gives resistance.

I would honestly just raise the CD of FC. Giving you guys less immune, and resistance procs, so there is actually a period of grace for other classes.

No offense but of course you wouldn't understand. You are a warrior main, you will never understand.
Also, not of those classes you mentioned can take a 2v1 or a 3v1. Thief does not have immune either. Funny you bring up 3 classes just to match the capability of 1.

Well, mesmer and thieves are not as sturdy as warrior too. So can you imagine that putting it all together in 1 class? Resistance? Check. Stability? Check. Immunes? Check. Passive Healing? Check. Mobility? Check.

Instead of giving us raw stats, how bout we just get a % stat of a particular pet, like for example
you gain 10% of the primary stat of a pet family outside of Beast mode, and 20% when is beast mode?

> I'll admit, it's not a perfect solution tho.
Well we can do that, but here is the problem then, so you don't use the f2, and the pet can't hit moving targets, so you are basically using the pet's CC in Beastmode which is locked by double cds (beastmode and the skill itself)

I think the only reason people use gazelle because its bugged. Dude, you can change electric wyvern into Stout and It will be more useful than any pet in that category. First stout pet's F2s are all awful in pvp, second they can't hit moving targets.
Reason I moved Electric wyvern because making it versatile pet makes it locked into just CC, F2 is a cc, third skill is a CC, BM skill is a CC then the F3 would be a CC also.
Another thing you forget is that how many stout pets do we have compared to other families?
