GFs are definitely NOT useless, and yes I have one, but it doesn't have top gear anymore. I think the situation is similar with CWs, where only 10 people out there know to play it. But when you finally meet one of those great GFs, they are a nightmare, very good tanks (is that block meter ever gonna go away or stop regenerating? heh) and decent damage burst with CC. But you need very good gear, good spec, good race etc. I've seen with my own eyes some of these GFs wrecking top tier GWFs 1vs1, and making short work of permas and CWs all day long.
Comparison with GWF is that GWF is just way simpler and mindless to play. GF is a tactics class. You need to think and many times adapt as needed. GWF is a smash face on keyboard class at any level but the highest premade, where even as a GWF you must have brains.
They're simply one-trick ponies. Only one trick to master, but if that one trick is not mastered, then worthless.
It's basically trying to set up the highest [damage + tank] specs as possible, and then in combat, going into an alternation of:
(1) Bull Rush → spam prone → spam prone → .. ad naseaum..
(2) block until prones recharge
(3) go to (1)
...gee. So fun to play.
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.'

well a GWF is the upgraded version of a GF. ive seen many GFs that i can say they are full dps(not much hp just about the regular 28-33k,the regular 45% defense, not much defelction, and the sad part is that pvp armor deosnt give regen and 25% crit(max ive seen), not much arp pen) and yea they are full dps, but max attack ive seen in all of them is 9k. 9k is a bit low when a tanky GWF can get 8-9k DPS with 40% defense 30% deflect 40k HP regen 10% atleast, ive seen some GWFs with 40% recharge speed(even more than DCs), and a min of 30% crit chance. why using a GF if GWFs DPS much faster, are much more tanky, and the most important of everything, THEY ARE CC IMMUNE oh and yea if u compare bonuses from stats of a GF and GWF u will see a great difference xD. we can all say that GWFS are the sons of GFs, TRs,CWs. GWFs got the good sides of every class

What about GWF?
Take damage = profit.
GWFs are like...
(1) sprint - spam CC - spam CC - IBS
(2) game over
