it is fairly interesting. Playing badly as one class, can negatively effect others. Wizards can really annoying rogues for example. by using too many knockbacks, when they are not needed.Yeah they fixed GF aggro generation in addition to making dc astral shield no longer "stack" thus no more dual dc groups. Those were bad even back in beta but they were "safe" so bads ran them all the time.
Now every class has a niche, a role they excel at that when combined with other classes roles allows a strategy to be formed. But again, no class is absolutely needed and you can get by without x class just the strategy changes. Its basically the "cleanest" way to do class interdependancy/'trinity' combat in an action mmo.
GFs are a control class, control via aggro. They are basically add tanks/kiters which is a pretty important role in most dungeons given how boss fight mechanics work, constantly spawning adds/etc. But again depending on the group makeup their role changes. In 2gwf no tr groups they are main tank style / tank everything class.
Not to give you buyers remorse or anything but I'd be willing to buy your account for $20.So anyone still playing this regularly? I just managed to start playing a bit after 5 months when I tried out one of the beta weekends. Bought the founder of the north pack and never even got to play till now. 5 months with no internet except your phone will make you crazy. Is there still a guild or anything around?
Precisely why I don't play GW2. If the game doesn't take itself serious than there is no fucking reason for me to play it.If your unicorn mount doesnt have a rainbow mane then you're not trying hard enough. They need to take note and copy GW2, because who of you wouldnt want to strut around town with this weapon:
P.S. I'm not actually sure that's real, it just shoots rainbows on my video settings which is good enough!
