Angry It's offical! A.Net HATES trees!
One of my all-time favourite skill changes was the balance of Debilitating Shot.
The only reason why I REALLY love it is simple.
It has shown a superb lack of thinking things through in terms of what a certain skill's change does in the persistent world of GW. In PvP the skillbars change after a balance - in the persistent world of PvE that can't happen without the input of A.Net!
So what did this change bring?
Well, Debilitating Shot used to be an unlinked skill.
And the lovely Redwood Shepherds LOVED using it!
Then the skill was moved and all of a sudden - the guys STILL love using it.
Too bad their Marksmanship is 0!

And now - we have a new contestant for the best skill change!
Energizing Wind.
The skill was trashed a week ago.
Too bad that nobody though of the poor Oakhearts!
Yep, you guessed it!
Their Beast Mastery is .. once again ... 0!

Won't somebody please think of the chil ... I mean ... TREES!
Not only do we make toilet paper out of their brothers and sisters ... now this too ....?

XD Wow, good updates ANET. Atleast they pay attention to what they're doing.

I can't count how many Assassin monsters have an incorrect combo, it's just Arena Net not thinking long enough about monster's skills/builds.

Actually, it was nerfed some time after Nightfall was released.
They decreased the +health from 200 to 100.

I'm sure they'll change the trees. They already changed the forgotten priests.

It's not that ArenaNet hates tress, it's that Izzy is too shortsighted to see how PvP balance affects PvE monsters.

Ya, it was never really about the HP in the first place imo, that's just like a bonus to the condition immunity.

Yeah, they should buff all the plant monsters so they actually pose a threat to players. I'm sure the PvErs will love that.
