SS/LB ain't worthy of being account wide
just a stupid grind title that's easy to get
not worth doing account wide imo

The Hall of Monuments comes second, but I'm just too excited. Yes, excited is the word to use on my feeling right now. Though the phrase "sometime next week" is used, is it safe to assume it'll be next Thursday?
Those are all fine skills at what they do. Were you thinking they were too strong or too weak? Invoke lightning is probably the weakest skill on there, and it still sees play in spike builds from time to time.

The builds I use in PvE across my five characters use those particular skills. If something happened to them, then it would impact my build. Doesn't have anything to do with strength or weakness.

We can agree to disagree. But seriously, you should not tell someone how to enjoy playing a game. It is absurd.

you're all hyping yourselves up to be severely let down.

Given past track record, its probably going to be one or two random skill buffs/nerfs that break pve and mean nothing to pvp, an armor graphic glitch, and a few bugged standing in town npc's that get a new placement or haircut.

HoM and Tonic will probably be the only real things added to the game, other than, just plain ol' nerfs. I think she was gettin alil ahead of herself when she said "Monster", I am sure it won't be the "biggest" update ever, although that would be cool if there was something added to the game that would give us more playing time, but other than adding Torment Weapons to HoM, I highly doubt it. It will yet bein another one day of excitement, maybe an hour or two at the most, then back to the same ol' boring GW.

Everyone is going to get their hopes up, and get alil to excited... only to be disappointed. I am sure it will be just another "update". I mean, HoM changes, Tonic, Reward Points, and skill changes is what she mean't by "monster". But I just don't have a clue what they mean by "big" updates in the coming months, I mean, what could we possibly expect besides an expansion?

Well anyways, I hope they put SF back to normal so I can get back to do some Sliver farming, that was atleast fun. Taking the 50% damage off I don't think would bother anything including UW, It would be nice to have some kind of effecient farming outside UW.

Its gonna be over 40 elite skills that will see change. There may be some crazy brokenness but Izzy has received a lot of feedback from many pvp'ers about skill changes.

I've stopped playing GW while I have exams and coursework to do but watching the updates threads is quicker and more fun than playing the game anyway.

Don't know about the 40 Elites, but Ursan nerf (and re-balancing of useless elites) is mentioned here.

After the last update Izzy said that he was working on reworking or buffing 40 different elites (at least) to make them viable. He didn't want to go live with this update before the guru tournament and then the mAT so he held back.

Additionally, we are adjusting a number of underpowered and rarely used elite skills. Depending on how testing goes, some or all of these changes may be released as soon as next month.
I know the number is 40+ from being involved in the pvp community. I assume this is also where people are getting ursan nerf ideas from.
