spafrod....drops his own green.....almost makes me want to go and kill him to find out what it is.....almost

nah would never get it so will just wait for someone else to post a screenie of it.

and now I will never get a clay brick to fill out my 'gotta have them all' items....

Who the hell is spafrod? Where the hell is that armor collector? Why there hell no nerfs/buffs of pve/pvp?

Someone knows about [glyph of concentration] ???? i used it yesterday night after much time i did not use it....Was it nerfed?? I remember it was 2 spells and yesterday i used and it said: "For 15 secs the next 1 spell you use cannot be interrupted bla bla bla...."

EDIT: i noticed that the image above still says: the next 2 spells....but i'm sure that yesterday it said: the next 1 spell...

That's not new in this update. And the popup text for the skill image above is out of date.

It was changed to affect only one spell in April 17th update as a temporary balance for PvP... then it was reverted to two spells in the May 1st update... then changed to one spell again in May 22nd update (seems they want it like that for PvP, and didn't want to split off a PvE-only version that works on next two spells).

Why not make both Glyphs on pve and pvp same? It's not like anyone uses it in PvP.

They did make them the same. They went with the "PvP-balanced" version for both.

About time they removed Clay Bricks. That one was only about 3 years overdue.

Game breaking update. I was expecting another skill balance before double fame farm weekend but it seems I expected too much.

since when were Clay Bricks in the game O.O
news to me!

Granted, that could just be paranoia.

Let's put it this way: If some "hacker" can access your diag file which is stored locally on your harddrive, he already has access to your PC and anything stored on it.

The functionality has been in the game for ages, it is just more convenient than having to manually altering the Properties in your GW shortcut.

Lol, me too

As for the update, i keep getting more and more disappointed with ANet with each one.

Players are now wishing for things for ages, some stuff is noted here so i wont repeat, but nooo, "were busy, were working on gw2", and then they fix 3 yr old bugs nobody knew were there, and add diagnostic functionality that again after 3 years of service support has never had less need for.

Sad...

WTB skill balance for HA event... meh

Ctb · May 30, 2008, 02:30 PM // 14:30

Did they just basically add a button that runs ipconfig /all and dxdiag for you?

sagilltwins · May 30, 2008, 04:47 PM // 16:47

awesome update thanks ANET!

yea.... thanks... really

they removed the clay bricks cause there was an exploit to craft stuff without having the mats and that exploit also allowed to craft vials of glass for 20g and resell for 30g, then go and buy chaos gloves and salvage them for ~30 ectos each, with a fast program you could get 1000 ecto in 5 minutes

MithranArkanere · May 30, 2008, 08:09 PM // 20:09

Heh. Funny. A link-button to make a /diag.

A /diag for dummies, you could say.

Hehe...

Seeing as you need 75 ectos to get the gloves in the first place....
