umm no it dosen't, I kind of like aura having a longer casting time now because I'm sure bonetti's will completely refill my energy bar. The changes made farming griffons easier, just takes a little longer now.

John doe Ranger changes to jane doe necro and you can not speak to them anymore.

Like someone said it's been like that for quite some time. What you can do is add the character name to your friend list and it will tell you the alternate they are on. Then you can whisper that alternate.

I'd be willing to bet the cooldown time on Savage Slash was reduced.

Damn ataxes.

PINK NUMBERS
whenever you gain energy with a skill or by Soul Reaping you see pink numbers above you displaying gained energy.

# When you cast a spell that boosts or drains the Energy of another character, you can now see floating numbers showing the Energy change.

Reading Comprehension FTW.

Secret Change!!

When you sign onto Guild Wars every six minutes, you find out the Guild War devs have found yet another way to make GW less fun to play.

My favorite idea: Making a skillbar at the top of the screen so large that my 76-old grandmother can read it from half a mile away. On top of that, when you interrupt a skill, you feel like you're being thrown a party with all the lights flashing and blinking, taking up half the screen in their enjoyable show of animated perfection. The first time it happened today, I couldn't tell if I was being banned from Guild Wars or I successfully performed a "Distracting Shot" on an enemy whose upper torso was no longer visible due to the flashing skill bar covering half his body.

I have to give a thumbs-up to the latest update. I look forward to more in the near-future.

Sounds like you might need to customize your screen a bit.

Flame Burst and all other AoE fire skills have been INCREASED AOE size.

EDIT: I've only tested Flame Burst and Rodgort's Invocation.

Signets, at least sig of weariness, are getting blacked out by power block, which is only supposed to affect "spells".

KvanCetre · Oct 03, 2005, 02:05 AM // 02:05

Did they change Shiverpeak Stragglers? I admit its been a long time since I've done this quest, but I remember the rufegees being ascalon soldiers, not men in fur coats. Also, for the first time, they weren't being killed as soon as I got to them...

We try very hard to include all changes when we do an update. Sometimes things are noted as changes that (1) were reported in an earlier update or (2) are functioning as always, but perhaps the player never researched the stats before.

If there are truly changes that were not included in the Update Notes, we want to know about it: Name, statistics, purposed change, etc.. With so many of us looking at the notes it's hard to believe that something slipped through the cracks, but we will investigate. I don't mean "It seems to have changed" or "It went from 10 to 5" when it was never 10. Actual factual changes that weren't in the notes will be investigated.

Thanks.

KvanCetre · Oct 03, 2005, 05:30 AM // 05:30

Would you like them posted on the boards(like this) or sent through email?

Takkun · Oct 03, 2005, 05:32 AM // 05:32

I remember trying to use the Soul Barbs skill with water hexes three days ago and it wouldnt work... and now I can actually the the additional 25 damage being done from that effect.

Just throwing it out there cause I don't remember seeing nething about it in the notes

i know that this is not "very" on topic and interesting but Italian Language is messed up, i mean, Blood Renewal is still at 33% in ita (even if it works on 25%) and i hate Peace and Harmony ....
in eng it reads : "...when you cast a spell not targeting an ally..."
in ita it reads : "...when you cast a spell targeting an enemy..."

i asked myself 100 thousand times why it breaked when i used aegis or the like :P

One of the unsung change we noticed Saturday night, as we lit the first of the Borlis Pass beacons, the message read:

4,789,386 beacons to light

I don't think my husband was quick enough to get a screen shot though. My initial thought was that his hands were going to get burnt as the torch burned down to a stub lighting that many beacons.

Thats happened before.

Only Necrotic Traversal was listed to have removed the delay... Thanks god they removed it from consume corpse too... now it's an usable skill.
