1st off your completely wrong about SV/AV, they do not run away because i still VwK farm the UW and ive never had a whole group run away from me, before and after update.

SoJ, i dont know because i deleted my 55 monk, im now realizing that was a bad idea because its slowly coming back with new builds.

As for SS, this was the most used Necro spell in the game. The fact is, you dont even need to know how the game works to use SS back in the day.

For these nerfs, i dont find them to be a problem. More like a challange, I've already developed new builds to cope with the update. Best of luck to you, and that you do the same. But you will not get Anet to change their update

plz this is so old and stale and also so untrue. Plz dont post such nonsense if u cant make real argument.

On the topic now.

I love the new changes and i am PvEer only. I love the new challenge now so its not all the same and easy as it was --> group mobs around ur tank SS/nuke em.. yea I am good.Amm... no I was dead boooored.

Well but I do agree with u on farming issue. Since I havent farmed much before the "nerf" i dont have much money now so I need to find a way to do some farming somewhere to improve my finances

*picks up a 210 grade eyeglass*

holy crap! hell no! that is the three main solo farming skills that will ruin GWs economy!

About AI behavior:
Thats why they are called ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE. To show some intelligence. Attacking an enemy and simply dying by AoE spells without even trying to avoid it = Artificial Idiots.

/not signed

sample situation:
if your a caster and maybe (just maybe) your a primary or secondary mesmer and those AI gank on you (hopefully they attack in melee), and if (just if) you have SV/AV on your skillbar, use it on you. and viola. you just outsmarted those AI. you said they will just hit once right? well at least they will stop spanking your behind for a while and you will have time to kite.
(my sample situation is merely useless but, it has a lesson)

and while we're at it...

Anet: add some damn command-line cheat codes. I want /godmode NOW!

for those who didn't catch it - /sarcasm

well all I can say is where you were using them and HOW you were using them must have been totally pathetic... cause SS and shield still works fine for me...

And besides. They made the NPCs act more player like. after all if a PLAYER gets a hex on them they don't Blindly attack like an idiot now do they? And if the smite has SoJ on him do you still hit him? No of course not. so Why expect a NPC to? This just goes further in making the game more realistic... now if they would just make the Mobs look around and see their buddies being attacks and gank up on you till you die... Now that will add another layer to the AI... As it is The game is still really easy, and gets easier all the time with all the upgrade options and enhancements... Its nice to see them make some Previously abused areas Get some AI update to make them more traditional missions in party sizes.

Face it How many people get to go all the way down to the spawning pools with a full party into the Underworld? Not many cause all anyone wants to do is 1 or 2 man farm ecto... Poppycock... I want to clear the UW and do every quest down there one weekend afternoon. I have done this in the past with my buddies and was extremely happy with the results... If more people did this I think you would be also...

BahamutKaiser · Nov 03, 2006, 03:51 PM // 15:51

This is just dumb, they nerfed all the DoT and alot of AoE spells for Elementist and Dervish, most only hitting adjacent foes now, as if they were ever really working great in PvP or PvE, and your complaining because some good backfire skills don't kill enemies but just force them to flee, that is an effect by the way, enemies that arn't attacking prevents damage.

So the admins think its cool to delete perfectly decent posts do they?

Mistakes Mistakes.

: P Only sarcastically. The whole "cookie cutter" build thing doesnt hold any appeal for me. Sure, it probably works, but you might need a bunch of "in-depth knowledge" that I either dont have/dont want to look up constantly while I play. Thats one reason I enjoy being able to change secondaries in any town/ outpost now

Oh yeah really.....Prove it. Who ever said that or is that what you THINK and is that your OPINION. Some people love the PvP aspect of the game and some people are heavily addicted to the PvE section of the game. The game was originally designed to be a balacne of both and reamins still.

I agree with Jesse. I seldom PvP (but i do) I prefer the PvE story of GW.
