Eh, why not, you have to buy an expansion to use shadow form too.

Should be UAX if you're a PvP player anyway.

But you don't have to buy the expansion for it to be used against you.(even though I bought all the expansions)I think there should be more counters for shadow form especially in the core skills because it's unfair that it requires factions to be countered.

Not having a skill unlocked is a great way to make a terrible impression on anybody you're playing with.

The way it is actually only a tad bit more balanced than before, being as it's still imba and all. Now with this on, paras will only have 86 AL which is still 6 AL higher than anybody else. Not to mention the fact that they have a perma-IAS that gives them a weapon that has roughly the attack speed of a sword/axe, but as a ranged weapon.

If you think AR is useless, then you really shouldn't 1) be giving advice on skill balance or 2) even be looking at a skill balance thread seeing as you have zero idea how to balance skills.

Personally, I'm not seeing the real effects of the paragon change. Sure, GftE is affected, but I don't run AR.

Add in SY as a 2nd shout instead of WY, works just fine. Romped thru 4 dungeons last night (H/H). Plenty of energy.

Thumbs down
Anet knows how to take a game and completely rip it apart.

To nerf melee with all the antimelee around is just horrific in my eyes. And to rebuff searing flames. This game is now a button mash game, no skilled players can play.

And how come there isnt a real nerf to sins then. Warriors are looking worse and worse compared to sins now, i guess because sins are a 1-2-3-4 button combo and a warrior requires more like a bull's strike, build adrenaline, and actual smart things to be done.

And Spiritway goes untouched, you basically made N/rts better.

This is bogus.

And the people agreeing with this update saying its good from the bit i read are more pveish. There is more than one crowd of people in this game, how about rebalance this game to where everythings actually fun and enjoyable.

I'm kinda happy I quit 2 weeks before this update. I'm sure this update will influence many more to quit.

--------->Button mashing no skill poo FTL. <--------------

Same reason the community does (or should).

Best armor with a huge advantage from safe positioning.
Warrior DPS with a permanent IAS at range, which is harder to kite and shut down.
Infinite energy due to Leadership.
Gives large passive defense bonuses to the entire party, without being as immobile as the Ritualist.
All Paragon effects are irremovable.
Paragon-specific shutdown is too niche to be valid in most builds.

I believe they are talking about the range in which the shrine will turn on for you...like all glowy and stuff. You have to get so close to it before it will turn on allowing you to resurrect there if you die.

Just take Para buffs/e-management/AR, combine them all, and you will answer your own question.

If you'd like to know, most PvPr's have been complaining about Paras for quite a while now, and justifiably so.

Yes paragons were way to powerful when in groups of 8 or even just 4, this was due to combos like chorus of restoration + finale of restoration and go for the eyes/watch yourself, it was simply amazing in big groups and after the nerf.... IT STILL IS ^^

What sucks is how laggy the game has been since the Update came out. I am getting over 1k+ ping now since it. I cant do anything in the game really.

A silent change to Rejuvenation: it doesn't heal those at full health. Still not much consolation to Ritualists. Why it wasn't documented and why Preservation didn't get the same update is baffling.

And did something strange happen to Glyph of Swiftness along with the fix, or am I simply mad?
