What are you talking about? In the current light armor meta grit doesn’t do shit for you.
Every time I play spear I can just outstam and pump a bruiser and force them to waste every ability. Rapier, mage can both easily do the same.

Let’s nerf everything into the ground. Only GA WH and IG are allowed to survive.
WDYM? if you compared literally just the fire staff with no secondary weapon Vs any other weapon I could agree with you.
But paired with an IG, VG, or rapier it is super deadly….
In the current PTR fireball can almost 1 shot a light player.
In live you getting dropped to 50%.
Flamethrower can kite and dps down a melee. and it has a great dps/escape skill.
It could use a little more utility but it’s no sleeper weapon.

My dude. Do you not play competitive in an arena? GA/WH is a joke and in a bad spot.
It’s seriously only overturned in wars. Which who gives a shit about that because Wars are broken and only 5% of the player base ever gets to really enjoy.

If it’s not gonna go, grit should be finite. Exhaust grit bar = grit over. Then they’d need to be out of combat to regen it. Or we could add grit regen mechanics.
Just a thought anyway.
I do not and I’ve seen plenty of ga wh doing just fine in arenas. Maybe GH WH shouldn’t be supreme in every piece of content and every situation. That’s the problem with the nerf culture. They think they should be great against everything and if they come up against something that gives them trouble they cry for nerfs.

sounds like ranged players to me
can’t kill healers nerf
sns giving them problems nerf
It’s useless and not allowed in war
I don’t think anyone should be stun locked
yet you want grit gone
funny
Like I said. It’s OP in wars because there is so much going on and other stagger damage it’s hard to dodge incoming huge hitting WH GA attacks. Plus there’s Gwell.
In any other content it’s damage is sub par in PVE (really only used for crowd control which feels more supporty than the VG currently) and in small scale PVP if your a half decent player you’ll never get Hit by a GA or WH outside of path of destiny unless someone sets up a stun or KD combo with you.
WH/GA is the lowest dps in arena matches. It only has kill viability as a combo then it becomes pretty deadly. Otherwise it’s pretty much a joke.
As a spear player I love just embarrassing a GA and WH by outstam and punishing them. It’s also generally the easiest role to just focus and burst down.

I think its OP yeah but I deal with it. I actually understand why its needed for melee clumps though. Too me it blocks too much. If I land a vault kick on your head then I think it should interrupt anything you are doing. Just like if you hammer slam me it interrupts anything I am doing.
it doesn’t block stuns.

Bro it has the longest wind up of any skill in the game before going off. You can literally counter or just dodge to the side. If I decide to go cheese ass spear/rapier you can take a WH user from full to death before you get hit once.
and yet it has dominated this entire game since at least beta.
Lemme guess… now you are going to come back with but but but they were fighting all noobs.
Well then the game is broken then because last time I used vault kick I could land it on someones head and it wouldnt do shit. Sweep never works at all.
Im aware you can dodge it jesus. You do have to time it right though because one dodge is not big enough to get out of the area. Or use two dodges.
Look man I’m not trying to give you a hard time but that video isn’t a great example.
WH/GA can end your life if you have a team mate that combos well with you.
In a 1v1 it’s just too easy to dodge and stam out them then punish them badly with a CC lock.
A hatchet can invuln and chunk it down fast or use gorilla tactics to take one out.
A good mage you won’t even touch if their S class in skill level
A good dex will out stam or just kite you until your gassed and pump you.
Any good healer rocks a rapier so your not killing a healer.
Literally the only time it’s a concern is if you have a good partner that can combo, but even then if your team mates know how to peel it just negates that play.
Please explain how GA WH is a problem for you. Any good mage or bow will double it’s number in arena they are the real threat right now. Have you ever gone up against a double mage healer team? It’s literal cancer.

Ok so we went from “only being good in wars who cares” to " its only good if you team up" and “1v1 its not good”
I mean really. Plenty people use it in wars, oprs, and arenas and do just fine. I show that and you move down to 1v1. Nobody cares about 1v1.
GA/WH is not a problem to me. My initial statement was “Yes lets nerf everything to the ground until only GA/WH/IG is the only thing that exists”
You can not debate that GA/WH has been meta for the entire life cycle of launch. It doesnt need to be the best at every single situation for that to be true.
Is this video also a “bad example?” (4) New World Great Axe/War Hammer Arena Build! - YouTube
or do you want to make an excuse again?
