@@akhsdenlew1861 Same with Guardian only having an axe (soon to not just be exclusive to FB) and torch as condi weapons for a class that is themed around blue flames and has a virtue that burns foes. It doesn't have a single ranged condi weapon. Hoping the dual pistols they eventually are getting are ranged condi weapons.
Might as well make main hand mace a main hand support. Have pommel bash apply barrier to your party and have mace burst or counter blow create a water field so you can combo warhorn blast finishers to heal.
It's not just the problem of this one weapon, every class has this problem that some weapons are simply bad. This whole new dev team has been spending over two years changing numbers instead of taking care of the weapons and utilities in each class for me it's powdering a dead body instead of solving the cause of the problem But it is what it is
Indeed. We need someone to consistently yell at Anet for not doing their job properly. Most GW2 content creators are looking at the world trough rose-tainted glasses or have not enough dedication to make enemies, and im still too small to be heared. Give time, we'll get there someday.

Warrior's mace needs total rework. When they finally get ranger's sword work, they can start new decade long project to move on to maces. Too bad we might see all the cool ideas for warrior mace rework moved to rangers mace skills. XD
I'm torn on this one Captain I'd never just pick mace as a fun weapon, because it's not. Using it kinda reminds me of those dreams where you're trying to punch someone but you're moving like you're in molasses, ya know? I only ever use mace when I'm solo against some turbo boss thingy. In those cases mace shield has saved me. But it's a war of _attrition._ It is painfully slow, but it works so it's better than nothing i guess. I'm more curious to hear your proposed changes Actually, what I'm really interested in is to hear your opinion on all warrior weapons, and potential changes to them
perchaps i'll make that video, sometime i the future, but im afraid ill have to learn animation from scratch, or at least improve at editing, to properly visualise my ideas.
I think Skull Crack should cause the warrior to go flying towards its target like Earthshaker does. Also, I didn't know Aegis had that interaction with Shield Master.
"Pummel Bash" hits 1 target and does no damage, "Scull Crack" hits 1 target as well, "Counterblow" depends on enemy actions to deal damage and auto chain's DPS is insanely backloaded. simple range increase won't fix any of these problems.
ok, I have to give my take on it, I do agree mace is most definitely the worst weapon in general, but I do run main hand mace with pistol in one specific group PvE build for two reasons, you barely auto attack with it and it provides one extra block. The build in question is shout alacrity bladesworn in which you barely even touch your main weapon, spam pistol, spam crack cocaine around you and still get very good dps despite being more of a support brick wall. does it work in PvP fuck no does it work in WvW maybe, the only thing I know for sure is that alacrity on warrior will be nerfed.
Alac Bladesworn indeed might be only build that finds mace prefferable. Which highlights the question "why" and answer: "Becouse you barely exit Gunsaber anyway". :DDD

It's weird that Berserker's Mace F1 is a condi hit but the whole weapon has 0 condi skills
it's wierd that so many of warrior's weapons are only power oriented.
Sword and longbow are like the only condi weapons lol

Guardian is Warrior's best weapon.
i love offhand mace. no one expects it so the CC lands very often. That is whenever the projectile doesn't hit a pebble and disappear.
That's basically every warrior's grounded projectile. Damn these are afwull XD

not "might" but "will" as with everything ranger related.

I would be curious to see what your suggestions would for mace then. I like the defensive concept for a weapon, but it is a bit lackluster admittedly.
I'd propably only leave auto chain unchanged lol.
@@captaincrapface7337 Naw, the 3rd hit needs to apply aegis to everyone around you. :^)
@@xoawolf that would make more sense as replacement for "Counterblow" as it's practically what it already does.
another good vid captain! what do you think is the best way to play berserker for now ?
Either LB+swords condi or GS+sword-axe power. both with Discipline and Defense. everything else differs from game to game.
@@captaincrapface7337 thanks ill be sure to try them out!
@@mr.baddie5914 ur welcome
i think they can increase mace autoattacks range and it will be great.
"Pummel Bash" hits 1 target and does no damage, "Scull Crack" hits 1 target as well, "Counterblow" depends on enemy actions to deal damage and auto chain's DPS is insanely backloaded.
simple range increase won't fix any of these problems.
@@captaincrapface7337 It was sarcasm
@@xecor4450 plain text is bad at conveying sarcasm, and I play warrior for a reason.
Maybe give sword 4 rip some QoL love as well. Remove having to target the impaled enemy for rip would be nice.
There are other weapons than Axe, GS and Sword?
Warrior's Maces aren't real they can't hurt you
Dat longbow Berserker fire field though

A glorious one. I wish mace wasn't garbage indeed. It's a what? 10 year old concept for a weapon?
