Curse

Sir Seifus Halbred · Aug 09, 2008, 04:05 PM // 16:05

Update - Friday August 8
Skill Updates

* Glimmering Mark: skill description has been updated to reflect that the hex ends on skills, not spells.
* Way of the Assassin: this skill now only works with daggers; reduced attack speed increase to 5..20%.

Bug Fixes

* Fixed a bug that caused the Flashing Blades block effect to trigger when not attacking.
* Fixed a bug that caused Confusing Images to remain active after casting a spell.
* Fixed a bug that caused Incendiary Arrows, Barrage, and Volley to occasionally not fire an arrow at the target.
Fixed a bug that caused "By Ural's Hammer" to fail to consider Spirits as allies.

Lmfao, I love how this is worded.

"By Ural's Hammer" is a failzor.

Btw - should Spirits be considered as Allies? I mean, they are already dead.

Does "By Ural's Hammer!" count minions too then? If so I might actually use it.

Duh, of course they're. Allies are whoever aids you in battle or whatever, correct? Then if your spirits(don't think they're referring to enemy spirits as well here) aids you in battle, they're your allies, how hard is that?

So much for the flashing blades fix lol.

You just got tomahawked · Aug 09, 2008, 04:53 PM // 16:53

I used this skill even before the change. Now this just means I have a permanent gladiator's defense.

As a fan of the assassin, no, it wasn't.

The IAS is a bit low at 13 critical strikes, in my opinion, but the critical damage possibility makes up for it. Assassins were meant to use daggers and I stick by that. I never use any other weapon. Just like how rangers should keep using their bow.

Way of the Assassin BALANCE, well done Anet, that was a fast and very much needed BALANCE

Because God forbid the game allows us to be versatile. I don't know why we're even allowed secondary professions!

God doesn't exist and because they end up sucking.

Warrior with elementalist skills. Go, go!

No, it wasn't. It went from viable to overpowered to good. Before Thursday's update is was viable, and it's currently better than it used to be.

[way of the master]

ANet disagrees with you, good sir.

Winstar · Aug 09, 2008, 08:07 PM // 20:07

WotA was stupid broken and needed fixing. This doesn't mean that there are other things that are abusive like ranger expertise and so on. But there was no way a/d a/ps should be allowed to exist in that form.

Cathode_Reborn · Aug 09, 2008, 09:00 PM // 21:00

WotA got the hit pretty fast....Now imagine GW if Anet was always that quick to fix problems...

You new to this game? Rangers use Wounding Strike in PvP. I've seen Sins use staves for the Deadly Arts Soj builds. Those are just a few minor examples. To sum it all up. You don't know what you are talking about. The fact we have secondary professions throws your whole logic out the window.

You quick to judge? I've seen them all. I don't like them is all I'm saying. I come from the time where Wammos used to be everywhere.
