I think the whole PVP and GVG focus in Guild Wars is why all the best PVE skills keep getting nerfed. The PVPers just whine when they can't beat a build and Anet nerfs the skills under the guise of "game balancing".
Spoken like a true PvE player. Hammering on the same skill list everyday and killing the same thing without actually understanding counters/balance etc... Why come into a PvP thread only to start whining? I myself have played for almost 2 years and there has always been skill nerfs why should it change now cause you might have to come up with something else to kill those char? OMG BLACK DYE!

Just making a pre-emptive comment: I somehow doubt ArenaNet will release the event exactly at 12:00 PM PST (which is in exactly 1 hours). They have always been inconsistant with times...and it's their lunch hour.

10g says they'll be at least 1 hour late!

The original 6v6 change was 1 hour late from the ETA. I strongly hope it isn't more than an hour.

Apparently, I was right. The event hasn't started. Why am I always right when I'm pessimistic?

EDIT: Apparently the original announcement said "around" Noon PST. NCSoft has some good lawyers. Still, it's dissappointing.

Time's are usually pretty on-the-dot when they're specified, though they're not always.
When they elect to give a 'general time' it tends to be a somewhat wide margin, but honestly, it's better than "sometime on friday", which is probably the reason they give an estimate at all.

I just capped sandstorm so they better not nerf that! haha.

As inconsistent as they are, on average I'd say the updates are usually on time...I mean NF went live hours early which I thought was really cool. There was one major update, can't remember what it was, that was probably around a day late though...that was not cool

i find the new sticky about a delay to be odd, why does it take until the updates LATE to hear these things, why is there no forewarning?

Yeah, he name is Dralspire.

Well, I hadn't considered the Snowstorms. That seems valid.

But can we just have the skill balance notes NOW?! I need to analyze!

I'm not surprised. What would have surprised me is ANet doing anything on-time.

I would expect a 5-10 hour delay on this, judging by what that guy said. No use waiting around for it.

Oh, it's a valid reason for it to be late arriving, I'll give them that. Now where is the reason they couldn't inform us of it being late before it was supposed to arrive and the reason this had to be translated from a German fansite.
