Game of Bones.8975 Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 What currently blocked weapon would you like to your "X" profession to have access to? I'm not asking ANET to do anything like this, so stop typing about all the hassle in changing the profession's make-up/skills/traits or combat imbalance it would cause. I'm just asking you to have fun before PoS comes out and think of the current weapons, current professions/specializations, and what combinations you would (nearly) pay to have access to. I would like to see what a rifle toting Ranger would be like, or a dagger/dagger Revenant, or a pistol/pistol Necromancer. Even if I could run around in a separate location that has no effect on the PvE, WvW, or story-mode. (much like the beta weekends) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CharterforGw.3149 Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 Wouldn't really want a weapon, rather would like to see a battle-axe skin for a war-hammer weapon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hevoskuuri.3891 Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 I would personally love to see hammer on Mesmer! Maybe featured with an elite spec that focuses on scaring their enemies with frightening nightmare illusions and darkness, bashing away creating death and destruction with their hammer. Oooooh boy.

Omar Aschi Popp.7496 Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 Why not greatsword for theif? Why no scepter for war? Why Anet? Y? Wai? Woy? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rauderi.8706 Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 Not that we have Claws in game, but I want them. :grin: Focus for Warriors. Because it'd be weird. Maybe as a ranged spectral whip to yank targets in closer. Ranger Rifle, for reasons. Might as well have the full ranged kit. More axes to more classes. Because I want my mileage out of Astralaria. :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lotusedge.6743 Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 Sword offhand for thief. Like a reduced mobility close range DPS build. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Panda.1967 Posted September 22, 2017 Share Posted September 22, 2017 My answer... simple... the same answer I've had to this question since before the game launched... **ALL** Seriously... I want to see ALL weapons available to all professions, without elite spec requirements. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blodeuyn.2751 Posted September 22, 2017 Share Posted September 22, 2017 I'd like to see whips introduced. But as for current weapons, hammer or greatsword on Ele. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because I want my mileage out of Astralaria. :lol: I was thinking that a warrior could wield the focus and just beat people over the head with it, kind of like a bar-brawler. I would've said brass knuckles, but a lot of the foci are really weird shapes. On ranger, I'd like to have access to both pistols and rifles. I really don't see a good reason for the class not to use firearms and stick to bows for their ranged attack. And I wouldn't mind seeing either a two-handed axe or lance type weapon if we adding in new types. I mean, my inventory is already bursting to the seams with the equipment I carry and a new weapon class would just add to that, but there's something to be said for versatility.

Palador.2170 Posted September 22, 2017 Share Posted September 22, 2017 Rifle on Elementalist would be normal on skill 1, but skills 2-5 would be VERY high damage. They would also knock off part of the Elementalist's life when they're used. Risk vs Reward, right? Very high risk, very high reward. Greatsword/Hammer on Thief. If you played CoH, then all I have to say is "Titan Weapons". If not, the basic idea is that some attacks are locked out to start with, and the others have a long wind-up to the swing because you're swinging such a large weapon. But when you DO make that swing, you get a short term buff called "Momentum". And while that buff is up, the attacks lose that wind-up, and the other attacks unlock (basically, you can only do them when you've already got the weapon moving). Get your attacks in as fast as you can, until your Momentum runs out, and you have to make another slow swing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could see an engineer coming up with some good uses for a cross-bow; Rapid-Fire, poison, net arrows (arrows with a filament between them the reduce speed) ...

SmirkDog.3160 Posted September 22, 2017 Share Posted September 22, 2017 I'd like to see greatswords be given to Revenants, mostly because that's the profession I play and greatswords always get good skins while everyone else gets screwed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oglaf.1074 Posted September 22, 2017 Share Posted September 22, 2017 It always seemed weird to me that the world of Guild Wars never made to logical leap from Bows to Crossbows and then to Firearms, but rather went straight from Bows to Firerarms instead.

Zackie.8923 Posted September 22, 2017 Share Posted September 22, 2017 i don't think they should keep adding new weapons, instead, they could revamp existing weapons to suit a specific future spec. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sorudo.9054 Posted September 22, 2017 Share Posted September 22, 2017 i have bin waiting for a 2 handed axe and 1 handed hammer (and no, a mace is not a one handed hammer), have also asked for a whip and knuckles so we have some interesting weapon choices for ones.
