Don't touch my op toy. Everything is perfect...touching anything will be a complete disaster....well at least for me.

If it can't be fixed - delete it.

So why not delete all specs and go back to Core?

 

Why didn't you ask for reaper delete last year? Or rev delete last quarter? Or xyz delete?

 

Why is it only ok to delete things when YOU don't like them?

Right?

(tbh I dont know why I expected anything other than nuke nerfs. I'm just glad Anet doesn't give 2 flying fucks about threads like these)

[StonePower.8321]

I love how OP wants to nerf stuff like "sun and moon style" or "natural healing" even though they are terrible and no one uses them lol.

[OriOri.8724]

Your proposed spellbreaker nerfs are weird to say the least. I hate SB, have hated it since it was first announced and we got to see the ridiculous mechanics and skills it has, but your nerfs are not good ones.

 

1 - Full counter's damage is fine, its the multitude of other effects, both baseline and traited, that are too much, especially for the low CD. Pick literally almost anything else about the skill to propose nerfs, but nerfing the damage is just downright strange, and does nothing to nerf SB's sustain

2 - Sure, I can get behind this, since Warrior already has a decent amount of passive healing via adrenal health and their heal signet.

3 - This trait is still pure cancer against condi builds, even if you remove resistance. I would reduce the amount of conditions to 3 (or even just 2 honestly), but make it transfer conditions instead of copying. Then also remove resistance, or bring it down to 1sec duration . Since it would be transfering conditions now, it would still alleviate a lot of condi pressure from the SB when they use FC, just by virtue of having fewer conditions.

4 - If you nerf the healing so significantly then reduce the cast time to 1sec at least. But I would rather see the amount of condis removed lowered by 2 or 3 if this skill even needs to be nerfed (depending on how you nerf FC, the sustain of SB is already heavily influenced, and remember that this has to compete with heal signet still. nerfing it too much means no one will ever use it)

5 - Can't agree. Every elite spec got a 30s stunbreak with its utility skills. No rational reason to make Warrior's a 40 sec CD. That said, 5sec of Resistance and superspeed every 30 seconds (potentially 10sec of resistance in WvW) is absolutely ridiculous. I would reduce the effects to 3 sec of superspeed and 3sec of resistance. As it is, Warrior and SB already have tons of access to resistance, no need for such a high uptime from this single skill, especially when it also gives you superspeed

 

There are other things that could be addressed. Like sight beyond sight. Its fine really, but as it is its nothing more than just revealed spam, which I can't agree with. FC does need to be addressed, but definitely not the damage aspect.

[Mikeskies.1536]

Those Spellbreaker changes are mostly non-sensical.

Full Counter only hits for like 3-4k. The damage is fine. Full Counter needs a slight radius reduction to 240 units.

Revenge Counter needs to lose the resistance and limit copied conditions to 3 (at most).

Sun and Moon Style healing needs to be increased to 10%. The quickness ICD needs to be removed.

Natural Healing needs an activation time reduction to 1 second.

Featherfoot Grace is perfect as is.

[Darknicrofia.2604]

FC's biggest problem is that its an aoe unblockable daze that transfers conditions every 8 seconds. Not the amount of damage it deals.

It is copy conditions, not transfer conditions. By the way i prefer transfer conditions 2 or 3 is fine, resistance can go as well.

I am fine with condition transfer instead of resistance.

 

But it should only transfer to 1 target. Potentially transferring 2x5 conditions to 5 targets would be OP again.

lol at the necro changes. yeah that wouldn't be hilariously broken at all

As a PvE warrior player, I approve of this suggestion.

Bottom feeder classes (core necro, reaper) need care and help.
