(feedback on new classes)
With all these new skills, you can't help but notice what has NOT been adressed. While many old builds are being hurt by the new professions, some of the most nutorious ones still work.
For one, the touch ranger. I looked at all the skills and I couldn't find a single one that would be practical in countering them.
Sure you can now remove blind (and add it) in different ways and you can enable teammates to strike them through defensive stances. But there is no GOOD counter to touch rangers.
You would think after having NO actual counter to life stealing for so long they might make at least ONE skill to counter it. One elite skill (for any class, maybe monk) is all we need.
I can't think of anything else right now, but I'm sure there's something else out there that seems strangely unaltered.
This is NOT intended to be a touch ranger flame thread. If you want to dicuss touch rangers, go here: http://www.guildwarsguru.com/forum/s....php?t=3072605

Slowdown hexes and degen. If they cant touch you they cant heal.

I think there are quite many counters to Toucher Rangers as it is and to get to the point that the new professions dont have any counters.
They do imo
A warrior deals lots of damage but have a hard time hitting, I browsed quickly through the paragon skills and they had atleast 3 or 4 skills that were shouts/chants that made an ally next skill attack being unblocable/unevadeable
It seems like you expected a total counter profession against touch ranger while there is one. Mesmer, they are there to be a pain for the opposing teams, shut them down or pay for their actions.
Of course this is just my rant

It's only been a few hours since the new skills were revealed when this thread was started so it's far too early to say whether or not these skills are useful against (as an example) a Touch Ranger. You cant possibly gauge usefulness just from a glance.

If you can't counter a touch ranger, well, I see a whole lot of WoW in your future.

What did I say in my post? Do you people not read full posts before posting?
Oh it's easy to just jump on me because I put this thread up a few hours after the release of the new skills. But you fail to see the point of my making this thread.
I want feedback on what people think of the new skills and what builds got messed up by them, and what builds didn't change (mostly the latter).
