Anyone playing an Obsidian Flesh Tank in NM should be playing "Hello Kitty Island Adventures"...not Guild Wars.

Probably a future (soon) update, since it was already mentioned that this 'slipped' into this update.

Dervish update is out of the way.
One step closer to Winds Of Change (at least thats what i'm excited about).

One of the things that's jumped in my mind now is how the new Scythe mobs will be like to fight against. Like the various bosses on HM and DoA.

Getting through all the mobs on Drakkar Lake to kill Myish will probably be a completely new experience...

This update is extremely good because it nerfs the hell out of scythe warriors, scythe sins and dervishes damage, while at the same time making dervishes extremely good at other things.

Dervish became an extremely versatile and fun profession, while at the same time stopped being both a OP damaging profession and a OP damaging profession obsolete by better options.

*throws away Tormented Scythe customized to Assassin*

Onslaught is pre-nerf Primal Rage that can be removed but also doesn't need a cancel. Vow of Strength is a nearly 100% maintainable Hundred Blades with a weapon that can strike multiple times. Vow + Whirlwind will be rape.

And several others. Interesting update. Unlike Mesmer, where I could see builds popping up in my head, I think I'll just wait and see what the rest of the community makes out of this one. Should be fun.

So since the update, my survivor died. when i typed in /deaths it now reads "You have died 1 time and have gained experience since death." Does that mean they're changing survivor to only meaning you gain 1,337,000 exp without dying and not since lvl1?

Honestly, I'd like to know what people can find bad about that update. (outside of PvE skills changes)

Anyone tested how chaos/dark melee dammage interacts with AL? Similar to holy I guess.

Default BUH = Instant Res

I'm going to assume BUH will only affect dead party members when this skill is first activated. It would be pretty funny to see the same SOB die then auto res a few moments later only to die again within the 30 second duration...even funnier to see an entire party die/res/die/repeatedly. Let's equip a full party with this skill and sit on top of the res shrine outside Ember Light Camp and see how long and how many times we can die/res as a collective group. LOL. Post it on youtube.

Sorry, I'm not wrapping my brain around it just yet. How does it work with Spirits?

That should be pretty ridiculous when you run multiples together. 8 of these output almost 100 health healed per second (just by spamming flash enchants) while under completely untouchable coverage of SY. Intimidating Aura and Asuran scan are mostly for the lulz of over the top invincibility, you can easily take more effective skills in their place and abuse BUH more without IA.

More realistically, throw in 1/2 characters covering Strength of Honor/GDW/Splinter weapon and whatever other crap you have. Perhaps have a Melandru dervish to give condition invincibility.

It works because where BUH says it only affects party members, it should say that it affects party members and allied spirits. Does not work with minions, though. Yes, this lets Anguish hit for well over 100 damage when combined with SoGM.

Summons.
Such as the asura summons, summoning stones, ebon vanguard support.
They are revived and then boosted.

Can it resurrect unofficial allies though?
Like Togo, Mhenlo and other npc assistants?
