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.

I know a lot of people were panning warrior, but I'm waiting to see what it feels like. I don't think it's wrong to have some simpler designs too, and for me at least I prefer that a lot of the time.

Same with Rev, I know people felt like it was a little weaker than others but I think it might be pretty fun. The only thing I was thinking about that one was the spammable main skill should be on 2 or 3, not 5.

Ranger is probably my top pick out of the whole thing.

Engie was the weakest for me. I just don't get how it fits the class fantasy at all. The visuals almost look more like warrior to me, and there's almost no gadget theme at all.

Hyped about the ranger and thief spears, rev seems like a good WvW weapon too and could be a good power ranged option.

The others I didn't really look at, I saw the teasers and red the blogposts, but they didn't hook me. Which could also because the classes er not that interesting for me.

I think some were interesting but overall I can't shake the feeling they are a poor replacement for new elite specs. If any of them end up being good it will probably become the new go to weapon for every spec of that profession, which isn't really good for variety.
