...if you build it, it will come...

Hermos · Jun 18, 2009, 08:11 AM // 08:11

Shouldn't it ruddy well be today? Normally I'm a patient person but two weeks of "Sorry, we've been busy" is a little bit patronising.

MMSDome · Jun 18, 2009, 08:22 AM // 08:22

We get our free money this Thursday.

And a skill update probably not for a month.

Yes it sucks and makes no sense.

Abedeus · Jun 18, 2009, 08:25 AM // 08:25

EEEVEN A MIRACLE NEEDS A HAND!

You cry, and I cry, tralalala,
You moan, and I moan, tralalala,

'Cause eeeven a miracle needs a hand!!

I guess today another weekass skill update and nothing for a month.

KiLLi4N · Jun 18, 2009, 10:22 AM // 10:22

So it's now or next week? (now or never, lol)
Well, to be honest, if they had sth prepared for us, they'd probably give us a hint.

HollaBigj · Jun 18, 2009, 10:34 AM // 10:34

Regina probably will says, I'm sorry we smoked too much pot and forgot to release the new update, myyyy bad. Please forgive our short-term memory.

Yeah, you caught me bsing around. Maybe today or next month, who knows. Patience is virtue, you never know it will be awesome update.

Menlai Littiz · Jun 18, 2009, 10:35 AM // 10:35

tbh im getting very bored of gw's atm, updates are taking ages and some of the skills that really need balancing arent being..... i mean they balance RoJ ok... that is one Smiting prayers skill, what about the other spells that have 20 secs + recharge times making them useless in PvE ? and for that matter completely unneeded i mean the ones tht do any real damage compared to ele's or necs are ... projectile spells -.-... and people say "Smiting prayers are crap because monks can heal so well!", they cant if thier divine favor is being sacrificed for Smiting prayers now can they!

mazza558 · Jun 18, 2009, 11:52 AM // 11:52

I propose for the next BIG update (e.g the Fall update), the focus should be entirely on revamping all unused/under-used skills to bring them all into the game. If functions need to be changed, then so be it.

Make the skills of Smiting Prayers, Blood Magic, Wilderness Survival, Tactics, the entire Ritualist line, Water Magic, Mesmer skills, etc, more useful and varied. Give the Mesmer more uniqueness rather than being a poor man's Necromancer in PvE. Maybe a Mesmer elite skill revolving around instant skill recharge, in Fact Casting?

E.g

"Arcane Languor - 5e, 30r, 1/4 cast:

This spell interrupts target foe's current action. If that action was a skill, that skill is interrupted, all your skills are recharged and you gain 0...15 energy. If you fail to interrupt a skill, you lose 30...10 energy"

^2nded, don't forget paras though as a ranger using a spear with NRA is a better user of their attack skills, and their 'support' skills fail compared to other stuff in pve. However there are rumours about some 'pvp lovin', despite the last one doing no favours for pve, so any changes are likely to stick to pvp...

edit:Oh yeh and Regina said they aren't allowed to tell us when the next skill update will be during the massive QQ thread last week, more guesswork...
