Default So, what exactly is happening in the GW Universe?

Profile says last visit date was 5/24.

I've been following the updates (or incredible lack thereof) on the GW website, and I see...nothing. No GW2 updates, passive balance updates. It's odd, considering that GWEN was released a year ago.

Dunno. I only just reappeared myself. Only interested in GW2 stuff. GW1 is a glorified chat program.

I take it AoC wasn't enough?

I agree about GW1 though. I mostly pop in to ask my alliance what the heck is going on.

Only thing of any excitement is anet completely screwed up this months automated tournament.

It was full of diconnections/no connections and resulted in some epic 0v1 0v0 8v0 etc etc gvg matches.

But more to the point they've made absolutely no comment about it and have just pretended it never happen afaik.

Just the regular QQ about skills getting nerfed, people flaming the QQ'ers, people flaming community relations because of the lack of info....trust me, you haven't missed a thing.

EDIT: forgot all about the QQ about the impeding Ursan nerf. Worth mentioning.

O wait, you meant what's happening in the game itself? Erm... I think most of the Guru people spent more time on the forum than actually playing the game. This Thursday there will be a 'monster' update, we will see if it pleases the crowd.

I multitask.

Watching idiots in AB while reading and responding to posts is fun. I just wish more than just hitting Barrage repeatedly for my last 7.2% and 26 areas for legendary titles, GvG, general teamplay and AB weren't the only things appealing to me right now.

Oh, and Anet are trying to get our hopes up. Pretty much it.

HUGE update this Thursday that will nerf Ursan amongst other things and probably do more good for this game than anything Anet has done in the past 2 yrs with any luck. Make sure to be here Zinger, for the epic QQ.

otherwise, nada.

Don't forget ANet screwing up the mAT and not even acknowledging it. Although I guess you can put ANet screwing up and not acknowledging what they did while carebears defend them under nada, it happens quite often.

No DarkNecrid, we don't have a new CR. We have someone ANet claims to be a CR, though.

But enough of talking about the CR, it's being discussed in about every second thread these days.

I maintain that she is good, but then again I've seen how good she can be from her previous endeavors. She's more-or-less bad because...GW1 is more-or-less bad right now. Depending on how big this update is and how good it is, I think things might pick up with her imo.

EDIT:
Oh yeah, I forgot one.

"Wounding Strike is balanced." by Izzy. That one was pretty big. btw (idk if you were around when it was buffed) it is basically an unconditional AoE Deep Wound covered by Bleeding every 3s for only 5e that also gets buffed by like +22 bonus damage Conjure + Strength of Honor to blow stuff up. BALANCED

Well he realised that AoC is basically bugged crap that would stink even without bugs.

Welcome back Zinger and Malice.
Anyway, I continue to be put to shame by the state of humanity on guru.
Try looking up through Saradelac posts created by Slonage. It's a good laugh.
