Cool ~Nerf Central~
Nerf Central

I ran CoF with my 600 Rit, and noticed the attempt to nerf CoF yesterday too…my smite hero was taking damage. Replacing one of his skills for a self heal pretty much did the trick. It wasn’t hard coming up with the solution. I hate it when they do stuff to piss the gamers off. They make it tough for the *players* to have something great in the game and make it easier for non-gamers like *bots* to have their way like spamming “selling gold” via Temp accounts. 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…I really don’t want this to happen to guild wars. But if it becomes nerf central of the gaming industry, I will have to look for a new game again. Sighs…

Anet says they listen to us, the gamers but I am the only one feeling a little lied too lol?

“In addition to designing the game and logging hundreds of hours each in the three Guild Wars campaigns and the recent expansion, staff members read fan forums and observe PvP matches on a daily basis. They also attend various live gaming events and hold tournaments for both the novice player and the top-ranked competitive guilds. The decisions charting the course for Guild Wars are not arbitrary choices made by an isolated marketing department; rather, the entire gaming community, including players and developers alike, has a voice in the future of Guild Wars.”- Quoted from http://www.arena.net/about.php

“The team members speak a variety of languages, which—with the common bond of a love for games—helps them understand the needs of the global gaming community, and allows them to listen and respond to feedback from fans around the world…”- Quoted from http://www.arena.net/about.php

Well…listen to us now Anet, stop nerfing things that us the *players* do to make money or have fun in the game and focus on the more important things like the corrections you guys haven’t made including clinches, bots, etc…

Thank you for the time you took to read this and hearing me out. Peace.

About the CoF "nerf"
It's not a nerf, it's a skill/bug fix.

IMO it's supposed to be a team game. Crying that you can't solo when that clearly wasn't the designers' intent doesn't get any sympathy from me.

And yes, it was a bug fix.

And yes, you made an unnecessary thread because you didn't take the time to look at the other CoF thread right below this one.

Then tell me this, what was their motive for the “skill/bug fix”? Who benefits from it?

ANet should leave duping in the game as it allows players to have fun.

Your logic is terrible.

Plus, even someone as smart as OP found workaround pretty fast.

This is basically non-issue. So what, smiters build changed little, it still works.

So that stuff like Ancestors Rage, etc returns reversal damage. Obvious reason is to fix bug in skill to make it work like it was described.

Well, logically, if we can fix it by putting a self heal in, us. Since the botter smiters will be dying for about a week before they realise Which means more drops for us.

- Are you stupid? When things are broken they should be fixed! Who benefits from it is irrelevant.

Maybe Anet have changed it so that someone can gain huge amounts of cash really quick just like the Mini Pig --> celestial Pig conspiricy, and the disconnecting people/ travel anywhere conspiricy that Gaile was behind.

LOL at being offended by the quoted post, can't wait till you read mine or visit the world

I agree with the majority, they saw an exploit that was being used, researched it and had a programmer fix it. They tested it, it looked correct and they released the correction. I do not see the problem? This is what a software company does.

Ok your right, everytime they “nerf” or “skill/bug fix” things in the game it benefits us and we are all happy! Man it cant get better than this, oh wait do I hear a Ursan nerf coming?

I used the CoF “skill/bug fix” as an example to nerfs in general. Take the time to read the title of the post.
