No skill balance? Waste of update.

Probably for one of two reasons: One, their best guess is a time far enough off to anger more players... or two, they just have no idea.

The reason for this: Things change/ need a second pass/ need more QA

Not disussing timelines in public is not the same as not knowing

Lets hope shadow form is included and many more. Good sign. Ill take a delay for this.

i understand that things take time, but just press b, anet spent so much time nerfing reapers mark, but then they made a skill -5 degen 14 dmg every time you move for only 5 energy 10 sec recharge. Its just dumb, no wonder most of the people quit this game.

P.S. What is the deal with late game items at the GToB Merch? Not seeing any change there.

I think people will be more pissed to find out the update isn't happening the day of instead of 1-2 weeks in advance.

Do me a favour - can you guys on the cutting edge of exploitment tell me what the next exploit farm will be? Every time I decide to try one of these things, they nerf it - I want to be bang on time for the next one

jimme · Jun 12, 2009, 12:05 AM // 00:05

"Ehh guys, we messed up and didn't think about a skill balance..."
"Just tell them were doing back end stuff"

Tramp · Jun 12, 2009, 12:06 AM // 00:06

I say nerf every skill until there are no more fun builds left. Omg...some people might actually have fun raping some monsters and getting some worthless golds?!?!? Silly times have arrive at gw. Who really cares if keg farming was going on? People were actually farming some craptacular 600g golds? Millionaires... all of them must be millionaires! After an hour of kegging I was so bored I never went back, but for the first hour I had a blast blowing the snot out of those things. Now just nerf ROJ and shadow form and cry of pain and {fill in the blank} so people cant get rich having fun with guildies doing other farming runs getting the 600g unid golds, onyx and diamonds out the whazoo, and other junky drops. Nothing is worth farming anymore really. At first I thought, they really should nerf some of these skills, now... a few months later, I feel who really cares. If people are having fun, let them do it. Its a game, people want to pwn some stuff. Who cares? I kind of feel sorry for new players in the game. Us old timers had some good times and made some money back when items were worth something. Now anet nerfs anything and everything and gives us z-grind for 20 slot bags at 2500 copper coins. My days of caring are gone, but I can understand any QQ that other people have.

The shit isn't done yet, and when it is done you will all pick it apart and bitch all the same anyway why even bother anymore?

Honestly, some of you expect so damn much and yet I bet you aren't even the giving type.

i hope you know there is a gw live team & a gw2 team, so i mean one set works on gw2 , one team is supposed to work on "balancing"/bugs gw

and yeah whats the point of the orbs in ab now? usless lol
keg farming was overpowered, gj finally nerfing it
thank god for The Treasure Hunter and Wisdom title now counting

mostly a pointless update to think we got new skills and z keys, i think anet is actualy trying to get people to quit gw

my thoughts exactly, since there is no monthly fee, they try to ruin guildwars so less people per server=less they have to pay to maintain it.

Wall of text crits you for 5325217325913510 dmg. Armor ignoring.

It's about game balance, your argument would go for gold farmers then, too.
Enhancing diversity, rewarding smart play style, erasing methods of getting the things you want too fast and keeping 'em playing that way. Only three arguments why to kill unbalanced stuff.

dusanyu · Jun 12, 2009, 12:12 AM // 00:12

nice to see Skill changes are being tested Well now i give back retracted icy points

Please Spend more QA time on some of the updated Elites that have been added over the past Few months like WK (how that passed any QA is beyond me) movement Punishment is one thing but Topping that with Ungodly Degen and you have a broken skill. LC and a fewe more of the Hexes need a looking (the Strength of some of these hexes in dammage over time should come with a Per use Drawback like mirror Degen on the user or a Life Sac)

Professor K · Jun 12, 2009, 12:13 AM // 00:13

Glad they have their sights locked on ROJ. Even if the skill balance is later, i'll be glad for it to be "adjusted".

Also lol keg bombing.

Axel Zinfandel · Jun 12, 2009, 12:15 AM // 00:15

Forget these other people.... As long as you do a GOOD skill update, I'd RATHER you guys take more time in doing it at this point

and please for love of god do something about buffing ele nuking in endgame / HM

I can't find any confirmation on her wiki page, though.

IMO nerf/change: mantra of resolve(vor mesmers have a field day bcuz they can get everything off)
weaken knees (read the skill if you have any questions)
ether prism runners( press b if you have any questions)
mb eles (press b if you have any questions)
ganking in halls (basically the same as ladder manipulation)
bspike (so pvers cant get champ title for HoM)
