As long as SF itself isn't touched people will find a way to UWSC again somehow. Give it time. There are farmers and SC'ers out there who are willing to take up the challenge of breaking the game again. I'm 1 of them. Cya soon.

I thought you meant they can't use zcoins to get the pvp items because they are pve players.

Reserving judgment until I find out the costs of PvP skins.

"12 silver coins for a basic weapon" is pretty ominous, though.

You need to unlock 50 basic armors to even see the fancy armors. The reward points have went from 20 per basic piece to 18 rp's per basic piece or 36 silver zcoins. Not sure if I would call that a drastic reduction in price.

I really hope not, that wouldn't be fair to those who fulfilled the requirement to the rewards ><

I was looking forward to getting some elite armor on my pvp assassin trading gold but if the requirements are still there, then I really don't see the point in bothering. Not spending every minute of my life to get it you know.

It appears that the Ice King was replaced with King Frozenwind (after Daniel Frozenwind obviously).

Also, didn't go through the whole thread, but the quest in Ice Wastes, the Dryders go after both the new King Frozenwind and the Reaper.

This is way too much IMO. 1,800 copper coins for one piece of armor!?

For items that were at Tolkano before (http://guildwars.wikia.com/wiki/PvP_reward), all prices were reduced 40% in tournament rp.

EotN helms and most armor are available for 18 rp apiece as basic. Exceptions are Dread Mask (45 rp, fancy) and Ninja Mask (30 rp, fancy).

Fancy armor can be bought for 1 gold coin per 5 rp. Basic can be bought for 1 silver per 2 rp.

More details to follow after class.

This always happened it's just that everyone got used to catching the dryders aggro as they spawned and never let them run.

No one else said so, and it's a minor thing, but thank you Anet for finally removing Healing Touch from Mhenlo. Not saying he won't still charge into the frontline to wand enemies this just gives him (hopefully) one less reason to do it.

This update is pretty awesome. I haven't had time to play in a while now (damn school and work), but now I really have to load it up and see. Definitely wanting to take the new henchie builds out for a spin to see how well they work. Devona Charging us all over will be missed, but otherwise, they look great.

Good question. Somebody answer that.

That name is just to epic to NOT be related to the Halloween quests.

Hmm, I'm going to have to actually play the game again, atleast for awhile. The henchies don't sounds so bad anymore and might actually fill out a solo party and be a benefit instead of a burden!

I'd like to check out sealed deck, sounds fun. Although, making the HB title useless is LAME! So much time waste by others trying to get that title for no damn reason. (good thing I never worked on that title )

New ways to get old loot? I'll be checking that out.

Anet didn't nerf SF, yet again. I laugh hard at the haters. SF forever! (I need to build a sin )

Sounds like an interesting update, can't wait to check it out. Sounds like you done good, anet. Give yourself a pat on the back and a shot of some strong stuff.
