Like the title said: Where's the SF nerf staying?
The whole economy collapsed in 2 days...[except for runes then ><]
Anet is planning on nerfing, I know, but can't it go any faster?
It ain't fun anymore

I hope it comes together with the update from the bonus weekend of EOTN.
Leave your own remark about the SF thingy too though ^^

Koricen · Jun 19, 2008, 04:09 PM // 16:09

Can making threads about SF be bannable? Please?

Snow Bunny · Jun 19, 2008, 04:11 PM // 16:11

a few month's ago, ecto's were also 4.5k @ trader
difference now is that shards are more expensive (around 2k, dunno exactly) and that runes are more expensive

If you don't like SF, just don't use it.

Is this a joke?

Dumb as these SF threads are, no-one really cares that it "makes the game too easy." They care that it "makes the ectos I invested in too cheap."

Dude, i logged in just to say this:

Stop beeing selfish just because you got a whole stack of ectos and dont want it to devalue. Let us, normal people, have our ectos too so that we can buy obsidian armor (not the chaos gloves, wich are ridiculously ugly, seriously, i should call the fashion police on you). If you dont know where to spend yours "stakx" of ectos give them to the people who know how to spend them.

Im tired of all this "dont make me poor k thxs lulz" thing.

Here are some news flash kid: Guild Wars 2 is coming and you cant transfer your ectos to it! So what are you going to do it with them when it comes you?
We aleady saw how ridiculous some can be when they announced that you couldnt tranfer gold/crafting materials to GW2. We had a whole lot of "make us tranfer ectos plz" "brilliant" "IDEAS".

Seriously.

When has it EVER been fun to make money purely for vanity and no real benificial rewards?

Wait. Don't answer that. I think I'm safer not knowing. This is worse than when Ursan was made.

I do like it, but just everyone uses it now to easy farm ecto's ><
No fun...

Phineas · Jun 19, 2008, 04:29 PM // 16:29

The nerf is lurking...

You've probably read this in the Developer Updates - Skill Balance Changes - 18th June 08 thread:

Quote:

"Some players have objected to changes in the last update to Ether Renewal and Shadow Form. We have not seen any actual negative impact from the Ether Renewal change, but we are still evaluating the high efficiency of Shadow Form farming builds. We will continue to monitor this issue and may make adjustments in the near future."

So it's not like they don't see the damage being done.

For my tuppence worth, I'll say that ANet will wait until they're sure that no more units of EoTN will be sold on the basis of Glyph of Swiftness.

So what you are saying it was fun when you used it to farm ecto and once you got your fill and seen everyone else doing it you want it nerfed.

Typical

CronkTheImpaler · Jun 19, 2008, 04:35 PM // 16:35

two things

1. yea im thinkin bannable

2. i whipped up a sin in like 2 days ascended and all just to farm some quick ectos. there dropping in value!! oh well!!! life will go on. the economy in GW is in its state because this game has been out for quite a while. everything has been gotten the traders got all they need and then some of everything. ECTO's will NEVER reclaim there former glory. neither will vigor Ab's sup monk all that. it is what it is!!! thats all.

"The primary goals of the balance updates made on June 12 were to round out PvE-targeted changes we made in the last update, to improve a few underpowered skills, and to address PvP play balance issues.

Some players have objected to changes in the last update to Ether Renewal and Shadow Form. We have not seen any actual negative impact from the Ether Renewal change, but we are still evaluating the high efficiency of Shadow Form farming builds. We will continue to monitor this issue and may make adjustments in the near future. Similarly, we know that the powerful Ursan Blessing is always the subject of much discussion. Some players feel it makes the game too easy while others think it is fun. We have not chosen to make any changes to Ursan Blessing at this time, but we will consider the matter as we move forward. Finally, we know there are continuing concerns about Wounding Strike from some PvP players, but we do not believe that changes to this skill are warranted at this time. We have, in this update, altered several other skills that are commonly used in conjunction with Wounding Strike in GvG. We will observe the consequences of these changes before revisiting the Wounding Strike issue."

Now get over it. Please make that link a sticky.

Ate of DK · Jun 19, 2008, 04:39 PM // 16:39

Yay, another Shadow Form thread.

Guess one can say that Anet will probably nerf Shadow Form on the same day that Ursan Blessing gets nerfed. In other words: That might take some time.

Balance PvE? Who cares? xD

EroChrono · Jun 19, 2008, 04:42 PM // 16:42

This so called economy was messed up even before the SF buff, this is just a kick while it's already down..

Anyways just give it some time, soon SF will be nerfed, the favor will be back to normal and everybody will have used up their UW scrolls, and every thing returns back to normal, and tons of people will make threads about it.

Alexandra-Sweet · Jun 19, 2008, 04:43 PM // 16:43

Here it is.
