Hey Folks, I just want to know what your thoughts are about the new spear skills, which Anet streamed on friday.

I have mixed feelings about the skills and desinges they showed. To be fair some classes are getting unique effects and a new type of gameplay but I think some skills seem to be overtuned in terms of competitve gameplay not to mention the graphic effects some skills have. I´m curious what the beta-event might feel like. Maybe the new skills will be balanced or getting balanced later on (most likely after the beta). For me as an Ele-Main I like the skills I got but I can understand the discomfort for people playing their class not getting the skills or playstyles they wanted.

What do you think about the new skills? Do you like their desing and gameplay? And are you satisfied with the skills your mainclass will get?

    It’s hard to know exactly how well the spears will perform before testing. They will no doubt adjust skills as needed. Can’t speak on the gameplay since we haven’t played with them yet.

    The designs look cool, but like many streamers have mentioned, some of the ground effects could cause issues with enemy telegraphs.

      That was exactly my concern. Some effects look so overloaded that crashes might occur easily.
