Keira Wildflower.7304 Posted August 12, 2018 Share Posted August 12, 2018 Can we bring back the trinity? It is the most balanced system to date and it promotes teamwork and hinders trolls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maddoctor.2738 Posted August 12, 2018 Share Posted August 12, 2018 No because it's a terrible "system". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Perses.9683 Posted August 12, 2018 Share Posted August 12, 2018 One of the reasons I play gw is for the lack of trinity. I’ve played plenty of mmos that have the trinity system and if I want it I can go play one of those again. No need for gw to go there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Late For Tea.1846 Posted August 12, 2018 Share Posted August 12, 2018 If you want to play the trinity, play one of the other thousand MMOs out there. I for one play GW2 because of the lack of a trinity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Donutdude.9582 Posted August 12, 2018 Share Posted August 12, 2018 I am afraid the "trinity" will never return to Guild Wars 2. One of the core philosophies of this game was to move away from the standard tank/healer/DPS that is prevalent in almost _every other MMORPG_ on the market. Personally, I feel they have done this remarkably well and I doubt they will ever return to it. As a side note, the only play in the game that I can think of this appearing in some form would be raids. If you are really looking for the more traditional setup, give raids a go.

phs.6089 Posted August 12, 2018 Share Posted August 12, 2018 Yes, we don't need trinity here. We have SUPERHOLY PENTA in GW2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raizel.8175 Posted August 12, 2018 Share Posted August 12, 2018 I don't understand this thread. This game easily has the strictest trinity-system I've ever met in any MMORPG - at least in raids. Whoever had the idea to stack the most important support-functions onto the designated tank- and healing-specs needs some serious tutoring on healthy game-development.

crepuscular.9047 Posted August 12, 2018 Share Posted August 12, 2018 why??? why do you want GW2 to become any other MMOs GW2 is fun because it does not go with the traditional templates a light weight version was introduced since HoT to accommodate for raid, but in other areas there is really no need for trinity the path the game went with since day 1 was about self sustain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sariel.2143 Posted August 12, 2018 Share Posted August 12, 2018 The only reason I still like trinity is the nostalgia I get from remembering older games I played. Other than that I prefer it Gw2 style :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is the most balanced system to date and it promotes teamwork and hinders trolls. In order to bring back a strict trinity it would have needed to exist here in the first place and it has not while I have been here. This game does not lend itself well to that and was not designed around it. It works fine the way it is. At this point in the games history as well this is not even something that is regularly complained about anymore. I am just guessing but I am thinking that you are in the small minority of players who want this or even cares to still discuss it. Thank you for being civil about it but I don't think that it is the right direction for this game to take. Maybe in the future they will try a more classic game like that but who can say.

Blocki.4931 Posted August 12, 2018 Share Posted August 12, 2018 Why would you say that what we have doesn't work? Because it's a mild trinityand it works- So? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shaogin.2679 Posted August 12, 2018 Share Posted August 12, 2018 I mean, if you want you can already play with the whole tank, healer, 3 dps as it is. Just use the lfg system and ask for what you don't already have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Algreg.3629 Posted August 12, 2018 Share Posted August 12, 2018 no, and we should remove whatever "roles" crept into the game in recent years too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Felipe.1807 Posted August 12, 2018 Share Posted August 12, 2018 Bring back trinity? We dont have this kind of stuff on Raids allready(worst decision Anet ever made by the way, Raids and trinity should never had a place on this game)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoseofGilead.8907 Posted August 12, 2018 Share Posted August 12, 2018 A trinity-like system is already available for those wanting to play in those kinds of roles. The fact that this game was not designed around needing the trinity set up is what initially brought me to the game, and I don't want to see this game go full trinity.

Ephemiel.5694 Posted August 12, 2018 Share Posted August 12, 2018 People saying there's "no trinity", yet ignore Chronomancer and Druid who were designed to be Tanks and Healers respectively. The whole "there's no trinity in GW2" ended in HoT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AliamRationem.5172 Posted August 12, 2018 Share Posted August 12, 2018 While I think it would have been better for the game if they had embraced the trinity from the start, I don't think turning the game on its head now is a viable strategy. The entire house of cards is built upon the non-trinity foundation at this point. For good or ill, I think we're riding this train until it runs out of track.

Lost Dimension.9014 Posted August 12, 2018 Share Posted August 12, 2018 DPS role to Tank role ratio is pretty bad in any MMO, so I prefer we have no tanks at all. We actually do not need it imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khisanth.2948 Posted August 12, 2018 Share Posted August 12, 2018 > hinders trolls. Did you mean "make griefing easier"? Make a tank. Drag event mobs to the wrong place constantly. For example drag every frog on top of octovine for every burn during AB meta. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is the most balanced system to date and it promotes teamwork and hinders trolls. It's already back! With an extra! Chrono Tank Druid Healer Warrior Bannerslave DPS Now i just hope Arena Net gets of the lazy chair and starts adding out-of-expansion Elite Specs so they can grow the Roster and leave the Holy Trinity state into the better "no-trinity" one where any class can fill those roles equally effectively or at least there's 2-3 Elites per role. Since Raids and even since HoT released, GW2 has been in it's worse state ever in regards to it's balance. The power creep brought by Elites without enough choices of Elite Specializations diminished the game a lot. And unless they stop using semantics excuses (like when they renamed Traits into Specializations, to quash the critics that if there's only one, then it's not really specializing), and saving the improvements for the biennial Expansions, it will be 4-6+ years until we reach a critical mass of specializations that allows for that issue to resolve itself. But it's highly unlikely that this will ever come to pass, Arena net since HoT has shown to be in a state of not risking anything and doing the least possible to profit the most possible. Every time something gets suggested the answer is always in the vein of "too much work", and "have to prioritize new content"... Well... That's not working great.
