There is a difference A speed clear can be fun. However, the people that are doing speed clear and are complaining about this 5% change are the ones that are farming and only farming.

Mostly people equate fun pve with getting through the challenge. If one wants more than that, then one is looking for farming efficiency. The 25% -> 20% is not affecting the challenge itself, it is changing the farming efficiency. The only thing affected by this are very specific, very broken (shadowform) builds.

Also, let me reiterate, PvE is so much more fun now that I am expected to bring or contribute to a conset in zones that I have previously cleared without them.

Still the Essence change isn't anything. Neither was the PvP change. And the /report change is just begging to be abused.

Im curious what anet is paying izzy for? I can nerf op shit into the ground as well as he can... ill do it from home and take half his wages. Profit for anet. Seriously now, three months three shitty skill updates. I think like 10 skills have been updated. What, gw2 skills are taking all ur team... please they havent done enough of gw2 to post screenshots, let alone start considering skillls. Im now curious. WTF does Izzy do?

The nerfing of the skills was needed, and im all for it. However, 3 skills in 1 month is a bit like... who gives a shit.

Upon reading these comments one gets an impression that the sky is falling.

QQ moar, pl0x.

Inra · Nov 07, 2008, 07:23 AM // 07:23

It is nice that they toned down b-spike

. But isn't:
'fixed a bug that caused Inner Fire to heal Health instead of gaining Health'
another Destroyer Core farm nerf (i'm not sure that Scourge Healing would still work).

Anyway, overall i was hoping for more skill changes.

There are people who would do it for free. I bet someone could spend 30 minutes a day in their spare time and come up with better ideas than what we've seen in the past year or so.

So yesterday, I totally decided to try out WoW.
And it seems that the gods of GW are sending me a message that my decision was correct.
Go me!

Girl you should see me at Vizunah yesterday!
We got to the bookstore and then I notice that Menhi and Togo both got stuck (again). So I share this info with the Local party - and the guy rages. He /resigns, then leaves thus killing his whole party.
And in that moment I was like - Girl, if ONLY Inner Fire would finally make them gain HP rather then heal them!
Dude!

Ye that might become a huge problem. Now people will be reported for incorrect prices, even if they didn't basically do anything wrong.

Just yesterday I was selling some ToT-bags for 180g each and a guy told me he's going to report me for scamming because they were worth only 150g, lol.

Anyone wanna save me reading 5 pages and summarise why scrubs are whining THIS time?

As for the update, nice work on the bspike and Experts Dexterity fixes Anet

Not enough nerfs, too many nerfs, wrong skills nerfed, game is bad, people are mean etc... Usual stuff.

Windf0rce · Nov 07, 2008, 10:35 AM // 10:35

Good skill changes. Glad Expert's Dexterity took a big hit in PvP, hehe, it was really broken.

QQs about this update so far (none are my opinions)(not all in this thread alone):
-New tonic is worst so far, even the norn is better.
-Meta still sucks. QQ I not play this month.
-"I dont uze Angorodon's Gaze 4 teh energiez, I uze it for my 123 spike".
-BSpike QQ from the people who expect to win by clicking 1-7.
-ED QQ because... well look at it :P, they should of made it a prep if they didnt want it to be good with read the wind.
-/Report scammer is useless.
-/Report scammer will be abused.
-What is counted as a scam?
-"OMGZZZZ 5% nerf to essence, game is OVER!!!"

fenix · Nov 07, 2008, 10:48 AM // 10:48

Cheers Supervillain, here, have 10 internets.

It seems people are kinda bad then.

a) Tonics are stupid in the first place, so who cares
b) Who cares if you bad PvErs won't play this month, you'd never get anywhere anyway
c) Angorodon's was always for spiking, now it's changed so that it isn't dumb in PvP. Good fix.
d) lool, if you're mad about bspike, learn to play
e) ED was overpowered, now it's fixed.
f) /report scamming is dumb, I agree.
g) See above. It will be abused like CRAZY
h) Scamming is dumb people falling for bad tricks
i) if you need essences to win, you need to find a new game

I think that covers it all.

shoogi · Nov 07, 2008, 11:38 AM // 11:38

who the hell uses /report anyway, that system fails, always did, and most probably always will.

skill changes are good.
