The page with the three proposals that we're considering -- none of which rolled to Live in total, of course -- is right here.

I sincerely hope that it hasn't nullified the UT Sounds.

Probably loading GW:EN content as well.

Oh you have got to be kidding me. This is their stealth attempt at balancing PvE-only skills?

So what's changed about the EULA?

Meh, I don't really care about the PvE skill thing. I never had more than one on my bar at a time before anyway. I dunno how I feel about districts dissolving, though it probably means more nonenglish speaking guilds will be advertising in American channels. But that might be acceptable to be able to find more parties. And I think I like the rest (I haven't gone in game yet).

The boxing skills are going to be useless like this, unless you want to essentially play as if you had weapon attacks for 2 different weapon. Really not happy about this nerf, especially with the large number of new PvE only skills we'll be getting with GW:EN.

natuxatu · Aug 23, 2007, 11:19 PM // 23:19

you still don't know if you can use them other than in the boxing ring though as far i know... i don't know why people complain... guild wars usually knows what they are doing and will fix it accordingly or change it back if need be. The game goes on.

Edit: I'd love a slight change in the user interface graphics as you did a few times.. i think twice.. it just helps stimulate the eyes with something fresh to look at

i doubt this applies to any of the mini games, but just to the normal game.

and really who cares, would you rather them make the skills weak as a hell through nerfs, or just limit you to 3?

Also i hope the use option one for glad points, its alot more time friendly, i might be willing to go for ranks in it if i didnt have to waste time getting streaks.

kurzick/luxon skill + sunspear skill + sunspear rebirth signet

many people use all 3 of those, so there's no room for gwen pve skills

So the Euros can visit US and vise versa, but what about the asian servers? Is this going to be due in the future?

Sniper22 · Aug 23, 2007, 11:32 PM // 23:32

Wow finally american/europe switch is now available, i even suggested this recently in the suggestion forum :P. Maybe they really do listen to us heh.

Theus · Aug 23, 2007, 11:33 PM // 23:33

I wonder why they're adding the populations of the American Servers and European servers together?

Couldn't be because GuildWars is dying could it?
I mean..it seems pretty damn pointless to do,especially since we have had the International district to meet up with other players on other servers.

Sorry about that, guys. We are testing things related to Gladiator titles on the Dev Server, as you know from that recent Dev Update. It looks like a portion of one of the test items rolled out to Live.

We'll get that fixed really soon. And if you lost any points or rankings -- don't worry -- we can fix that at the same time. You may want to hold for the next new build so you don't get a winning streak interrupted by the build.

If you lost faction due to the gladiator's title change, causing your cap to lower below your current faction, will it be reverted as well?
I just lost nearly 10k faction due to losing my tier 3 gladiator's title.

Horrible timing, considering the GW:EN preview begins in less than 8 hours.

Ah well, accidents will happen.

I don't think there is necessarily a reason to do it per se. Just that there is no reason not to do it. As long as the servers can handle it, why not, ya know? I mean, favor is no longer linked to territory, and that was really the only reason to keep them separate before, I guess.

so are you going to complain that we can only have 8 skills next?

being allowed more then 3 would make no sense, there has to be a limit otehr wise you could max out all ranks and take all pve skills and be way unballanced.

well untill recently the only reason to not allow it was favor of the gods. now favor isnt based on region, so no reason to not allow it anymore

Well,with everyone having favor,couldn't they simply move to the International District and use the UW/FoW Areas?

It just seems like alot of work for nothing at all,since the International district was already there.

And now,chances are,the server populations are going to become lopsided.The majority of players are going to move to the continent that has the most "Favor" minutes.Unless they're being shared.And if this is the case,why didn't they simply keep the former formula of using the International Districts?

As of right now I only see this as a way to merge two dying English dominant servers.

I'd imagine Sunspear Rebirth Signet is going to fall off of most bars in favour of Resurrection Signet, since its effect is underwhelming in terms of PvE skills.
Lightbringer's Signet is rarely used, and Lightbringer's Gaze is great, but restricted to rather specific areas/monsters.

Beyond 1 or 2 currently existing skills, depending on the build, there's plenty of room. Underwhelming, though usable Kurzick/Luxon Sunspear and Allegiance skills will simply be dropped and forgotten completely. At least, after GW:EN players get to high enough ranks to make use of the new skills.

My guess is only "There's Nothing to Fear!," Critical Agility, Seed of Life, and possibly "Save Yourselves!" and Never Rampage Alone in some builds will be run in the future.
Of course, if the first three are nerfed, and the bar is lowered, other skills may see play, but nobody's going to be hurting for not bringing them.
