    I hope the combat has stronger identity in this one. Really love GW2 but the combat felt very flimsy and each identity seems like tried to be different from usual rpg roles and never had a solid identity that felt as good as classic roles.

      I’ll probably get blow back but I was never a fan of the combat. I’d prefer tank heal dps. I love literally everything else about the game except the combat.

        Come a long way since launch (which like technically could’ve had those builds but no real need since dungeons didn’t have much use for them cuz 5 DPS just blew stuff up before you die) and now raids and fractals have use for roles for either DPS or boon support which comes in DPS, heals, and tank flavors. Every class can do pretty much every role now, which I find nice to be able to find something that clicks with you and not have to switch off that class.

        Some classes still have niches, it’s not all mush or anything, but it’s nice.

        There’s tank/support/dps in GW2 for sure, but pretty much every class can build for any role and it’s only relevant in raids.

        My Mesmer (a mage with the lowest health and lightest armor) is my best and toughest tank in my character line up.
