Stam build useless, need global achievement

good day everyone,

my main build is a Stam DK, sure its not the best class and build for DPS but I love it, and as far as i can remember, at least a year ago, its still very much viable for trials, just came back to the game recently, and seems Stamina build reputation is drown to drain, sure some Guild still allowing stamina build to join Trial, but some guild not even allowed Stamina build to apply for trial, even at normal, its insane

sure, i don't mind to make new Magicka build character, its easy enough to level up, and gear is not a problem because i'm a hoarder, but my only concern is achievement, i don't want my main character don't have achievement that it should've had just because its a stamina build character

either make achivement global, or fix this complete imbalance on endgame content, please

note: not sure if this problem already occured since when, but honestly i don't pugging trial that much because of timezone problem, at least with guilds that i join in back then, theres no problem running trials with stam build in vet or normal

    Maybe respec to a mag dk for a few months? They're really fun too.

    Would it be of any help to simply respec your stamDK into a magDK? A much smaller investment than fulling building up a new character (mount training, Undaunted, FG, MG, Psijc, Antiquities, shyshards. . . ). Since you enjoy the stamDK, you can spec back to stam if/when you want to if the magDK doesn't work out or you simply prefer the fun of you stamDK. Don't underrate fun! Enjoying a build beats doing trials in my book.

    yes, you guys are right, its simpler option, and i tried, i tried to play magDK on my other toon, its just not fun, mag DK feels too slow and sluggish

    magNB on the other hand is ok, not as good AKA fun as my stamDK, but useable, but because of that, it become this kind of problem

    Your stamdk could go tank for pve achievements. Close to what you like and mostly just a few cp and gear changes to get there.

    You're saying some guilds are not letting stamina characters join normal trials? You're right, that is insane but sounds like a problem with them, not the game.

    Some of it is pointless elitism but the fact remains even if you get into trials on a stam toon the groups then want mag toons for the vet content so why bother mastering trials on stamina ?

    It's horribly out of balance - but in PvP stamina probably has the edge so the chances of PvE getting fixed seem low - in fact U30 makes stamina worse as far as I can see.

    For Stamina DK you can always switch to tanking if you want achievements in group content. Race is not that important as for DD builds, and the investment is minimal. You basically just change gear, CP slottable stars and maybe move some points from stamina to health (even with full stamina 40k HP is doable) and you're good to go.

    If it is only matter of achievements, change race & once you finish, get back to your favourite one.

    Id write why but then I would end banned for usage of colourful language that insults people who do so.
    What can I say, saw such jewels as being removed from normal group before we even started to do content cause my tank on alt acc is ONLY cp 400

    ikr...but look, for newer trial, sure, i get it, i somewhat understand....probably

    but this problem happen even if they only run nAA and nHRC, i meant c'mon....a year ago i played theres no problem at all running vAA and vHRC using whatever stam build you want, this just show how screwed Stamina Build generally are that they not even viable to run normal vanilla trial

    I'm thinking when the alternative options suggested are including "Just respec your entire build" and "Use crowns to change race" then the problem is just as much on the game as it is with those strangely elitist guilds.

    This is concerning to me as a newer player.
