Problem is, it will be so much awesomeness that it'll make Anet's servers go poof.

That, and we'd all look far too good doing it.

This has something to do with how many BAD warriors there are. Its rediculous how many HORRIBLE builds Ive seen some warriors run. Whereas its hard to make a Paragon horrible cause you can put just about anything on them and still do great DPS and turn god mode on with your shouts.

The reason I hate paragons is because they have Warrior level armor and do warrior level damage at range and can turn entire parties into nigh unstoppable behemoths

Sadly I heard about such all warrior feats after the armor stacking nerf-would've loved to get in on some of that.

It's really easy to make a paragon horrible, just look at some build threads around here.

Paragons didn't get the nickname IMBAgons for no reason! The skills "There's nothing to fear!" is reason enough to bring one! On top of that if you have a Warrior with "Save Yourselves!" you basically have god mode in your group right there with those 2 skills alone. People dislike Paragons for some very stupid reasons... I like to think of playing a Paragon as playing a "Stupid Alarm", if people don't invite you because they think Paragons are weak, then you're probably better off with a pure henchmen group...

Oh nooez !! You have to actually shout in RL when you use a paragon skill ?
I'm doing it all wrong then >.<

I agree with Kain: paragons are made for partys not for 1v1.
But alot of people don't get that.

Seeing how this thread mentions alot of gw players believing how Paragons suck, it's very possible and even likely that people will consider your statement seriously.

All of us understand it's supposed to be a joke. But jokes are supposed to be funny.

I've honestly haven't played with or even noticed a single Paragon outside of Nightfall yet (PvE)(started playing again for about a week or so). Perhaps the lack of players using them is why they aren't accepted.

They've successfully Nerfed the Warrior into Oblivion due to the Paragon though.
