Thoughts on a 3 profession skill in GvG

Hey gang,

I was GvGing the other night with my buddies guild May you be like [GODS] and filling in as the flag runner I was saying to myself....

Self, wouldn't it be nice if anet made some pvp only skills or options? What I mean is, I was running a E/Rt and was was getting the usual crip/posion/or slow hex and know down. So I said damn I wish I could have shield bash, or balanced stance, or cure hex etc. Since I really like my build I don't want to change it for one skill.

So what popped into my head was, what if anet (yes I know anet...fill in the blanks most people don't like colorful language) could add something that would allow you to use 1 just 1 skill from a 3rd class in PvP. But at a cost, like sac 10% health when you use it or you can only put like 3-5 att points into that tree or even you loss some att points for it.

I know the whispers going around about the new things anet is thinking about doing with baltz points for those of us that are UAX or those that have bought the pvp pack. So my thought would be something like that adaption.

I bring this to you my gameamp family since I have a feeling I will get flamed on guru. I look foward to the thoughts and dicussion on this idea, though it will never happen I still thought it would be a intriguing conversation.

and....DISCUSS.

3rd prof = fail

You just want a skill for your build wich isn't possible, so Anet should make it possible?

a BIG disagree here, sorry its fine the way it is now. just adjust your build to it

The point of only 2 is so that you can't counter ever single thing possible. If we did that then we mind as well allow 15 skills too.

Studies show that 92% of teens listen to rap. If you are part of the 8% that listens to real music the add this to your signature.

i agree, that would get abused to hell and back....if your build cant do something, change professions and make a build that suits your needs

Bad idea. You can already get all the support you need for pushes and stuff just by calling for it on vent. As in "I'm hexed back here, fall back and save me". Or some stuff like that. Besides, what type of runner are you playing? Not a good one apparently, as all the meta ones can survive 1v1 against anything, and depending on the split combo, 2v1.

yeah E/Rt=fail. Rt/D or Rt/E=win. Rt/D can survive a good split and can run without any problems because of weapons and heals.

quit gw for good. end of story.

3profs = phail x 10000000000000000 2 profs is good enough.

thats why teams exist, so that not everyone can do everything alone. also with everyone countering everything there would be no point.

Sometimes I think letting people have 2 professions is too much...three? WOW fail.

I like your thinking but I don't think the system would encourage team work.
perhaps if they had a new type of battle a "free for all" where you have to kill everyone on the map like ab but last man standing, with three profs and new techniques. Taking the arcade side of the game to a new level while maintaining accessibility for new and old players.
However this is quite a major deal and as stated the reasons for making gwen was they want to start gw2, rather than tinker with gw1 until it becomes unplayable.

With a clean sheet this is one possible idea that might take their note as major changes will be on their way I think.

RE: Thoughts on a 3 profession skill in GvG

i never use 2 professions, i have 2 pvp assassins, 1 necro pvp, 1 rt pve, 1 ele pve, 1 mes pve, 1 monk pve and 1 dervish pve. on ALL of these characters, they only use skills from their primary profession. so i would never need a 3rd profession for my characters.

RE: Thoughts on a 3 profession skill in GvG

I think you should only have one profession... Let Ranger be Rangers and Monks be Monks (let girls be girls and boys be boys xD). <--- That made 0 sense.. -.-
I have to add this also: More than 3 PvE skills in skill bar XD

Current competition:
Gremlins vs Cats(Please send votes via PM ^^)

Upcoming contests:
Gremlins vs Hax
If you have some tips or stuff like that for upcoming competitions please PM me :)

3rd prof is a stupid idea, it would just make you able to counter any build.

RE: Thoughts on a 3 profession skill in GvG

thanks for the feedback guys I didn't think it would go over to well. After reading your answers I see where I went wrong and I should have seen what you guys added.

With that failure of a topic *lawl* I will think a bit harder before I put my rambling ideas on imginary paper.
