Yes you hear an Ursan big fix coming if you have evidence that it wasn't working as intended.

You might wonder why the bug existed in the first place. You shouldn't wonder why the bug was fixed though. Well, I guess it's up to you if you want to rant about a bug being fixed, but there's really nothing for anyone to respond to.

end thread???

Related to the subject? all i see is a QQ thread. I was giving you a link to a thread that has a higher chance of not being ensnared by cat pictures.

Skill balance and correction (aka: nerf) has been around since the beginning of the game. Some adopt and overcome. Those that can't complain about it. (much like in real life)

Actually from what I read around these forums, an Ursan Blessing nerf has been long called for and would be cheered by many here. Indifferent myself, I dont use PvE skills- nor do I use cheesy Invincimonk builds.

Yeah adaptation, then boom headshot! Another nerf rofl. Oh you’re a Elite Guru member. *Steps away quietly terrified staring at shiny medal*

???Skill balance and correction (aka: nerf)???

To nerf is gaming jargon that roughly means "to weaken" or "to make less effective."

You know, originally "nerf" meant "to make something less powerful". As in turning a +5 double-bladed axe of DEADLY DOOM into a soft nerf-bat.

Now "nerf" means "any change I don't like". Even when it's really a boost, like in this case.

Personally I think "nerf" has been nerfed into uselessness.

Sees your point.

This game should be easy it's boring now. Other than that, I really dont care about nerfs other than drama they can cause for people.

If ANET wanted to stop Dual Smite Runs in CoF they would have done it. It is well within their power to change things in CoF so it could not be dual run. This is a Fix not a Nerf.

Necro is my Main Character...... I know what a true nerfs are all about.

Kook~NBK~ · Feb 13, 2008, 04:21 PM // 16:21

Bug fixes / skill updates: You can see the results of what they're doing. So you know they're doing something.

Bots: You can't see what they're doing. So you don't know what they're doing - don't assume it's nothing.

Kattar · Feb 13, 2008, 06:24 PM // 18:24

When they double the number of enemies and make them all act like the enchanted weapons, that will be a nerf to CoF.

Making it impossible to run - that's a nerf. Changing how one enemy uses one skill - not so much. In the realm of skill nerfs, this does not belong.

Jeez, I always sound so hostile in these threads...

stretchs · Feb 13, 2008, 06:43 PM // 18:43

Bring on the cats. This thread is useless. The OP QQs about anet doing their job, correcting something that wasn't operating properly. When a fix like this benefits you, then you are happy, but because it was something that was being exploited (unknowingly or no) to your benefit you want to QQ. Be glad anet gives a crap about correcting things so that we have a better game

N E D M · Feb 13, 2008, 06:46 PM // 18:46

what did they change? i didnt notice anything different...

lol'd hardcore at that. Try being a mesmer. Or a sin. Other than not having an endless energy pool in Soul Reaping or a hundred minions, necro knows nothing about the nerfbat.

OP: you found the fix, you worked around it. That's the way the game was intended to work. Are you pissed off that you had to use brainpower? Or are you pissed a bug was fixed that allowed you to use a skill with mass effect? I hear the new Smashbros. is out. Go try that.

Kattar · Feb 13, 2008, 06:49 PM // 18:49

Think this is mentioned somewhere earlier, but here you go N E D M...

Reversal of Damage now triggers on Holy Wrath and Retribution. Damage is inflicted to the Character maintaining the Enchantment. This 'fix' was not documented by ArenaNet but news has been spreading among the players since February 12th. It has been tested multiple times and confirmed to be true.

^^From wiki.

And I almost fell out of my chair when I saw that. LOL, +5 for you.

Being elite has nothing to do with the subject, common sense does. If something needs fixing it should be done, if you can't adapt to the change try something different(like find a new game).

Things like this cause games to die off, the gamer community just gives up with the game and finds hopefully something new or more promising…

Totally agree. They really need to stop this bug fixing as it's having a negative impact on the community

The players.

So that the RED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GOing skill works correctly.

You're retarded.
