What does everyone have against farming monks. i've farmed everything from chickens to griffons, to ataxes. what does arena net have against us. we dont hurt anybody. we dont stop other people from making parties or exploring. we just go in for personal gain. and we pass our items on to others. why go through all the trouble to nerf farm skills and zones just because of a few farmers.

please voice your opinion here if you are a farmer. i wanna start a United Farmers Coalition.

peace.

I think all the gold sellers on ebay are backed by anet. They're POed that we don't need their services. Someone has to pay the bandwidth bills.

The above is posted as sarcasm in case some are too dense to catch it.

I'll have to do my farming route before I can say whether or not I agree.

Takes about 30 seconds longer. Eh, no biggie.

You're talking about the nerf to Balthazar's Aura right? If so, that had nothing to do with PvE. It was an unbalanced skill. Not terribly unbalanced but still none the less. It just makes solo farming a little longer really.

not for my friends Me/Mo... fast casting sup in the fast casting helm... he's like...
"Oh thats a problem? ;D"

Ruik however was solo'n scorpions with my mending; him vs 40+ scorpions... NERF PRINCE RUIK IN RUINS OF SURMIA TOO GAWDLY.

Farming goes on, even post-update. You don't need a vastly overpowered skill to do it. Use some effort for once.

One and Two · Sep 30, 2005, 06:16 AM // 06:16

Hey, dont worry. By tomorrow, one of your "friends" will have posted a solution that you can copy/paste the skills and the attributes. Ya lazy shit~

Naprius · Sep 30, 2005, 06:17 AM // 06:17

ive been smart, ive created a monk after the update so i dont see the difference and i dont feel bad.

that's clear thinking , that is.

If you are referring to the September 29th update and balancing of skills, um, where should I start? Or rather, what should I say? I sometimes play an E/Mo smiter in UW, the secret back-up tank that no one knows about until an aaxte or two break through the lines of our warriors and come running after everyone else...ok a little off topic. But I am fairly experienced with playing a E/Mo solo build, though I never really actually solo any part of UW. And from my experience before and after this update, I can honestly say that it barely affected my skillset, if it affected it at all. Ok, so I had to make one skill change because of the update but that was basically it. So really, this update was far from any type of nerfing. or at least, any nerfing on the part of ele and monk skills :P

I find it a bit funny, that everytime there is any small change made to the game and/or skills, people automatically complain "NERF! NERF! NERF!" so i'm curious, what's up with that? Well, I guess I can go on these forums and get my daily dose of laughter after each and every game update :P Good stuff

"NERF! NERF!"

Patch notes....(@#%*&#%(*&^$@*^~)
-September 2005

"OMG WTH WHY DID THEY NERF? THOSE IDIOTS!"

Guys, nerf is a part of online games. Spawning pools got changed to 200 minerals, anyone remember that? They nerfed zergling rushes.... =(

Naprius · Sep 30, 2005, 06:36 AM // 06:36

i still liked protoss better anyway..

One and Two · Sep 30, 2005, 06:39 AM // 06:39

My guardians own your stupid photon cannons....

I hated when the newbs started throwing cannons ALL OVER THE MAP.

Then they're surprised that the cannons started dissapearing...lol~

Once I destroyed all the cannons by just constantly sending zerglings...

Really? That's what you do? I could have sworn you went in for personal gain, and then sold your items to others for ungodly high prices to further your pursuit of getting Fissure Armor for all 4 of your characters...

Savio · Sep 30, 2005, 06:41 AM // 06:41

You all suck. Bunker rush FTW!

OT: This happened when the oh-so-great Prot Bond was nerfed, Monks were standing around ToA whining. They said they'd stop healing for free or whatnot. End result? Nothing. Learn to adapt.

One and Two · Sep 30, 2005, 06:42 AM // 06:42

Dark templars own bunkers so hard...wth are you smoking

unienaule · Sep 30, 2005, 06:44 AM // 06:44

Obviously he's got 3 SCVs on it with Missle Turrets and Siege Tanks. And you're stuck in your crappy base, too.

OT: Monks, bring it. I've got my Ob Flesh up, so you can't even flame me. Evil solo monks should just go die. There. I said it. Burninate!

Naprius · Sep 30, 2005, 06:46 AM // 06:46

how about seeing nothing and suddenly a whole fleet of protoss carriers appears above ur base, shooting every zerg to smithereens

One and Two · Sep 30, 2005, 06:47 AM // 06:47

Damn. (goes to corner, plays 3198-way team cannon defense, ect.)

Either that, or I go back to zerg and bring my guardians.

for the carriers...shit. I"ll just send all my crap to you and see who dies faster...lol.

The carrier thing is only bad on those stupid zero clut maps...

You can't have too many drones in one area on ladder maps~

Eet GnomeSmasher · Sep 30, 2005, 06:47 AM // 06:47

You dont need a monk to farm.

The "nerfs" arent because of farming but for general balance issues.

Monks still can farm.
