No you don't! Thats like saying a CW needs some abilities to fight melee?
You have abilities at your disposal to utilize that make you immune to cc, and you have sprint, almost ranged prones too! GWF need toning down not more!
just inspected both of your chars on gateway and for your build everything ill be OP.
so can you just stop QQ
mostly people still don't know how to fight against gwf,
i notice this a lot of times on a PvP match, they still attacking non stop to a GWF and thats the Error.!
When GWF use "Unstop" dont atack whit Encounter/daily use only At-will skills!
than you see it's coming to the end then go focus him.. use all ur Encounter/dailys
its easy kill if u know how,
<::::::[]==0 GwF 0==[]::::::> ● Still waiting for the promised Improvement ●
lmao this Thread is such a joke, people who dont know how to play their class just got owned by a fully geared gwf, and come here to cry your probems away.
Just FYI, Destroyer Spec GWF's NEED UNstoppable and defensive stats that they currently have to still be viable in PVP.
Which by the way was the whole point of Mod 3. Teo Put DMG Farther into the Destoryer Tree, so the base dmg from Full sentinel builds is reduced.
GET IT RIGHT, GWF's do As much dmg as they do BECAUSE THEY ARE SPECCED FOR IT.
If Your class is not doing enough dmg, THEN SPEC FOR IT.
TR's Specced into Perma builds, ARE NOT SPECCED FOR DMG, Spec into it.
CW's who are meatball spec, ARE NOT SPECCED FOR DMG, SPec into it.
HR Is by far the most broken class currently, with GReater plague fire given UNlimmited stacks of the new ability.
HR can beat ANY CLASS 1v1, ANY CLASS.
Get your facts straight people before you come here and waste my time, and the Developers times. Thanks.

Hilarious so your idea is to not attack the GWF that is destroying you and kindly wait for his Overpowered Tab Feature to end in the hopes you'll still be alive to focus him down?

You couldn't be more wrong! Noone here is complaining they got owned by a 16+k GWF while I / we may have 14k-15k... The issue is they are to powerful and have a tab feature that is far and beyond over powered, then you add in Unstoppable Recovery and Destroyer Purpose and you have a self healing, immune, killing machine that can prone, slow, and stun you with a sprint readily availible!

How many dodges do you think people have? Also how pray tell does a GF dodge? I think your 8 yr old theory is as silly as your comments!
So we just move out of the way, and we can survive? Because the GWF will surely not follow us or use one of the plethora of abilities to prevent you from doing so.
You're right, EVERYONE THIS KIND GENTLEMAN HAS FINALLY SOLVED OUR PLIGHT! ALL WE HAVE TO DO IS MOVE OUT OF THE GWFS WAY!

I agree! Hes still working on gear 14.8k gs not great but not <font color="orange">HAMSTER</font> either! Hes got pvp gear, CWs cannot compete at a high level without team help. No amount of defensive stats are going to help a CW, and if you think all CWs need is to stack HP and DEF stats you are..... I'm not even going to continue!

Omg HE SO SMAWT . I would really like to see a GWF roll another class and teach all of us newbs how to destroy them.
■ roar: bugged, ranged, recharges too fast - should be a debuff or buff, not a cc
■ FSL: AoE, ranged prone... ranged?? prone??
■ sprint: should have higher stamina burn rate
■ Threatening Rush: bullshi* at-will. should be an encounter with recharge time (a la Deft Strike)
...nobody "moves out of the way" of the GWF.
Lawdy, the way these GWF sympathizers are describing its as if because people are stupid and dumb that they can't "move out of the way". Heaven knows every class tries -- and finds it impossible. The TRs are the only class that can really "move out of the way", provided their stealth is ready. If lucky they can escape with maybe half of their HP blown to kingdom come in the first 5 seconds they are unluckily snagged by the series of bullchi* AoE/ranged CCs they throw around randomly.
Stop making excuses. Be a man. If you know something to be broken, stop using it. Otherwise, you've got no right to be speaking of 'balance.'
For a meele class, the line between make it op and useless is very thin. PS: See how GF suck for example. If you remove or nerf unstoppable, you will make GWF another GF. Because even the most pro GWF can be killed by some top TRs, and HRs. and some CWs hit very hard. However, i do agree gwf is op in this mod. as meele char, it is stupid it has so many CCs and so many ranged skills. I believe with ROAR nerfed we will see more balance. since roar is the skill that allows gwf to successfuly land 100% of rotation "takedown+ibs" + dailies and smash ppl. roar is so broken, it go through unstoppable. it prevents unstoppable, and make the char <font color="orange">HAMSTER</font> forever.
gwfs 1 x 1 now is so <font color="orange">HAMSTER</font>. if both gwf have about same lvl of gear and skill, wins who is the luckiest and lands more critical. and roar really make the 1 x 1 <font color="orange">HAMSTER</font> too.
I dont think FS is as bad as roar cuz the high cooldown, however, i still think it is a stupid skill for a meele character. GWF Should be feared on close combat, should survive and destroy, but it should not have the tools to close gap so easy as roar, FLS, threatening rush... they should rely on "sprint" and skill to make it happen. I play gwf since mod 1 when they were close to useless on PvP, and i feel ashamed of playing it now, so many new players playing it everyday and thinking they are "pro"...

Best GWF I heard from yet. The only one who acknowledges that they're sort of OP. Look on to the lower bracket PVPs you have a bunch of GWFs coming your way 60 is gonna end up 5 GWFs vs 5 GWFs soon
I play swordmaster / destroyer. If unstoppable was changed drastically it would completely ruin the spec for any sort of pvp (though it's not that great as it is)
What people need to understand is that GWF that isn't specced IV is actually not that super in pvp. I'm gonna say again, it's not unstoppable, it's the long range aoe prone + takedown, it's too much.
All the problem GWF's are IV, if you face a swordmaster, which would be very rare, you will notice they are alot easier to manage, takes alot of work as Swordmaster to outplay other classes (Especially IV GWF lol)
"Your post limit has been exceeded. Please purchase more Zen to continue."
After Gentlemancrush applies his fix to Roar, please come back to this thread and continue to wager on further nerfs to the GWF. At this time more GWF's will have their level 60 alt HR in reasonable gear and the cycle can continue.

I have a suggestion but Im afraid if I put it in the words I have in mind I'll offend someone again ( such fragile feelings people here have ). When you picked that DC at character creation you didnt expect to be a killer right ? Depending on your answer you can stop reading. In case you are not an idiot please continue.. The DC heals/buffs himself and his allies and does some damage/cc all while sliding back and forth around the node. As both a 16.3 GWF and 14.5 GF I've met DCs in pvp who stay on node unable to die and hold it till their mates come and clean house. You are not a bloody battle cleric dont expect to kill a GWF solo, you are supposed to survive him. If you cant do that look at people who can and learn from them.
Row, row, row your boat, Gently down the stream.

Since no GWf answers, me a nameless GF step ahead to tell you what GWFs would have told you ,if were not busy trolling the domination battleground at the moment:;)
1.You just kite the enemy GWF by using your dodges.Well ok the GWF might sprint like a 50% mount.... and then have threatening rush...... and ,or RANGED cc but....eh.....YOu just kite!!Got it???
2.After you kite sometimes the usually slow GWF might catch you.No problem!!!As stated by all GWFs here ,GWF class is severelly underpowered and needs more buffs!!So you don't have to worry.Use astral shield and your chains....but....chains don't work during ustoppable....but..you....eh...use....em...
3.Ustoppable pops in.Easy part.As many GWFs stated countless times in the forums during unstoppable it is very easy to fight a GWF.How?You simply do not attack and wait 6 secs to go away..It will finally .It is just a matter of time.Can you not wait for 6 secs???Gosh.
4.You just died during unstoppable mode of a GWF?so?PVP is more about domination points stop being a nuuubbb and ride your horse and go again mid..(so to kill you again we the GWFs and to rank up in leaderboard)
^^^^^^^
These are the usual answers of some GWFs.Ok i transformed them a bit and made them ironic but the essense is there.They will tell you the same non logical nonsense over and over again more to convince themselves and then you.
And the real answer to your question as attested by every non GWF class since the begiining of mod2 and up to now:
"Any tips on how a DC can 1 v 1 a GWF please?"
No tips.You cannot.

Someone got their Guard broken way too many times while tryin' to block the Unstoppable ?
Row, row, row your boat, Gently down the stream.
Merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily, Life is but a dream.
You'll survive the first burst.
You'll apply Chains.
You'll apply Divine Glow.
You'll prepare to dodge.
You'll dodge.
You'll apply Exhaltation.
You'll Dodge.
You will spend a long time doing this, but eventually the servers will go down for Mod4.
As a point - a lot of tiny hits generate more determination than a few larger hits. Don't use Sacred Flame or any other At-wills that hit often, stick with Brand of the Sun and the lifesteal buff.
Your bottleneck will be tied to gearscore, fresh 9-13k gs GWFs should lose to this more often than win. 15k is co-op.
What needs to be looked into is the restoration of your Single Target control powers that were NERFed in PvP.
THAT was your method of countering his Unstoppable and knockdown/prones. It Was to use Repel to push him away OR paralyze him or immobilize him.
Once they made the stupid mistake of removing those things from your side of PvP, or shortening their duration to almost nothing, suddenly you're in shoes where all his work... and none of your counters to anything he does works.
Well no wonder you can't compete anymore, and he looks like a GOD.
What REALLY needs to be looked at is the absolute reversal of all the classes PvP nerfs up to this point, as THAT is what caused the current situation... GWFs are just fine and have always been.
Whats MISSING... is your COUNTER to all of their things... so of course... you're now in shoes where all theirs works... none of yours does.
Why the hell you would want to PvP in those shoes in beyond me... I'd just walk away and let them stroke themselves off alone if I were you. Because obviously you're not allowed to participate in PvP... they are.
Another thing that needs a good reversal is the Rogue damage nerfs. These were stupid and short sighted. They would be able to compete with any GWF if they had their damage back.
There was NEVER anything wrong with the GWF powers and abilities... what you ran into was some idiot that did not understand the REAL balance of the classes and suddenly assumed that EVERYONE should fight toe to toe like a GWF...
... forgetting that the other classes are not designed to handle that kind of tank battle.... IT THEY'RE NOT A TANK...
Yes it annoys me.... they created an unbalanced issue, where there was none before through this short sighted lack of understanding.
Its called... shoes of your own making.
Very smart post.
CWs- need control back
TRs - need damage back
GFs - need to be more tanky
The issue on WHY a gwf needs things like threat rush/takedown/roar etc is because its so easy to kite/negate damage in this game with a dodge. GWFs dont have a roll or dodge mechanic and let me tell you how frustrating it is to IBS or even takedown someone to THEN AFTER the animation is complete "blink" away... Lukily for us, takedown if missed resets to a 3 second CD, if that was taken away that would suck.
Another issue is that GWFs NEED threat rush to even compete with HRs, their infinite dodges are really just stupid, as a GWF my only hope in keeping up with them is to literally spam TR until I can roar+takedown and hope ONE of those two are not dodged so I can set up my IBS. Unstoppable means nothing when you cant hit a target that dodges.
So like this person put it, the ONLY tone down GWFs need atm is honestly the roar fix, and a small damage nerf to Dest specs. THEN CWs need their single target CC back, AND TRs need their damage back THEN HRs need their dodges nerfed to maybe 3 with longer range.
GFs need to be more tanky (in the area of block meter lasting longer) and overall I think DCs from my experience are fairly decent. Just my 2 cents...
unstoppable is fine bro. the "ranged" attacks like roar, FS, threatening rush that make the gwf *****for a meele character.
imo they never should have gotten the best abilities from the GF class. That was a nail in the coffin for GF, and a lazy way of adding a new paragon path to GWF.
GWFs dont have a roll or dodge mechanic and let me tell you how frustrating it is to IBS or even takedown someone to THEN AFTER the animation is complete "blink" away...
Imagine correctly anticipating a takedown, dodging, and the rubberbanding back to where you were, now prone.

Your bottleneck will be tied to gearscore, fresh 9-13k gs GWFs should lose to this more often than win. 15k is co-op.
Very smart post.
CWs- need control back
TRs - need damage back
GFs - need to be more tanky
The issue on WHY a gwf needs things like threat rush/takedown/roar etc is because its so easy to kite/negate damage in this game with a dodge. GWFs dont have a roll or dodge mechanic and let me tell you how frustrating it is to IBS or even takedown someone to THEN AFTER the animation is complete "blink" away... Lukily for us, takedown if missed resets to a 3 second CD, if that was taken away that would suck.
Another issue is that GWFs NEED threat rush to even compete with HRs, their infinite dodges are really just stupid, as a GWF my only hope in keeping up with them is to literally spam TR until I can roar+takedown and hope ONE of those two are not dodged so I can set up my IBS. Unstoppable means nothing when you cant hit a target that dodges.
So like this person put it, the ONLY tone down GWFs need atm is honestly the roar fix, and a small damage nerf to Dest specs. THEN CWs need their single target CC back, AND TRs need their damage back THEN HRs need their dodges nerfed to maybe 3 with longer range.
GFs need to be more tanky (in the area of block meter lasting longer) and overall I think DCs from my experience are fairly decent. Just my 2 cents...
Imagine correctly anticipating a takedown, dodging, and the rubberbanding back to where you were, now prone.
It's a ping issue I guess and goes both ways.
