Today I went to gank Koosun with my mesmer like I usually do and he shot me through the wall. Did they make it LOS transparent? His portal spawns his minions with far less agitation as well.

Mrscoombes · Aug 22, 2006, 08:53 PM // 20:53

That isnt a nerf. If you want to use this "Internet speak" please use the URL I pm'ed you to get it right first.

Draxanoth · Aug 22, 2006, 09:13 PM // 21:13

Wow, what a language Nazi. You realize nerf also means reduction in efficiency yes? Could I possibly have meant the run itself and not the mob? Nice job, you get a gold star.

Kijik Oni Hanryuu · Aug 22, 2006, 09:15 PM // 21:15

Lol Drax the nazi part was uncalled for but you are right that sounds like a bug that needs to be fixed.

Dr Strangelove · Aug 22, 2006, 09:20 PM // 21:20

Triple celestial storm still ganks all the bosses in Raisu pretty quickly.

Jeremy Untouchable · Aug 22, 2006, 09:23 PM // 21:23

They made it so you cant spell gank thro the walls, not a nerf, check notes on the last update, fixed bugs and problems in that zone..........hello nerf bat, nice to meet you. gos to show dont share your farming spots if you want them to stay the way you like them. OUT

Mrscoombes · Aug 22, 2006, 09:27 PM // 21:27

I see you like to shun any means of help by using generic insults and attempting to look 'leet' infront of everyone. It doesn't really work for you. Also, it's not called "language nazi" its called "someone who simply doesnt like to see language abused". Nerf does mean to make weaker/less efficient. Something shooting through a wall is not a nerf, it is a glitch. If koosun's spells were permanently halved in effectiveness by an update...yeah...that'd be a nerf.

She sent me PMs and all kinds of dumb stuff about something that had no bearing what so ever on what I was asking about. I didn't appreciate the higher than thou attitude about something that makes no difference what so ever. Especially since the meaning of nerf isn't a cut and dry thing. Anyone else consider increasing the delay on a spell a nerf? I do, but you certainly aren't "weakening" it's dmg amount. Same goes for a run, reduce efficiency = nerf.

ANYHOO, back on topic, Koosun can shoot me through the wall now. Not the other way around, I was never able to hit him with LOS through the wall. I thought the reason he didn't fire back was because obsidian flame was line of sight only, has it always been pathless?

onerabbit · Aug 22, 2006, 09:51 PM // 21:51

If you Read the Recent update, they fixed Riasu Palace (Explorable) or something, i went there the other day, Kai and Koosun now attack.

so no, its not a nerf, Anet fixed a glitch.

mrscoombes....high horse....get off of it

Draxanoth · Aug 22, 2006, 10:03 PM // 22:03

It's still "doable" but my efficiency of the mesmer is lost till I figure out another way to stay alive. Have to be able to take the ob flames. Can't stop enough of them currently. On the bright side, if less people farm him, the extra time per run might be offset with more drops.

Backfire might be useful now that he spams though.

Mrscoombes · Aug 22, 2006, 10:12 PM // 22:12

If you consider punctuation a high horse, then that's just a shame, really...

Ganik Thress · Aug 22, 2006, 10:22 PM // 22:22

Well honestly, be a little more open-minded, not everyone likes to type like yourself.

But yeah, I noticed this as well the other day.

Gli · Aug 22, 2006, 10:29 PM // 22:29

Mrscoombes, if you're going to prattle on and on about someone's language skills, you'd better make damn sure your own posts are absolutely perfect.

'Infront' indeed...

I was going to point it out, then got lazy. But while I'm here, I say "indeed" to you and that I also expect proper punctuation and capitalization.

Best that I can recall is that ob flame has not always been pathless. I could be very wrong though, so don't quote me on that.

ANET needs to give people like you a "Win" button just so you shut the hell up. If you want an "efficent" way to "farm" for "drops", go get a job and leave my game the hell alone. I've never understood why people like you even play MMOs. I mean you can either spend your time:

A. In an MMO doing repetive actions over and over again to get an imaginary item.
B. At a Job doing a repetive actions over and over again to get a real item.

Why not just get the 2nd Job instead of playing the MMO?

Mrscoombes, would you please stop "trolling".

On topic: So now they can attack trough walls?

Obsidian Flame always went through walls.

The fact is that ever since the update which is shown in the update notes you cannot use spells through walls whereas for some reason monsters can.

BTW http://redwing.hutman.net/~mreed/war...tm/troller.htm

Ozric · Aug 23, 2006, 12:35 AM // 00:35

Yeah Obsi Flame has never been a LOS spell.

Votin' with mrscoombes though, if someone had no idea what 'nerf' was and came to these boards to try to figure it out, they'd prolly come away with,...

nerf: something that doesn't work the way you'd like for it to.

That's just too loose. ^^
