Even at 18% still takes down a monk quickly, the important part they didn't Nerf the chances for Critical hits.

I knew this was going to happen. Wish they'd just left it alone and not buffed it in the first place. It's not like it needed it. Can't we just have the old version back and call it even?

This, anyone who used or even saw it on observer mode in GvG can understand how unbalanced this was. Glad it was taken care of quickly and properly (cutting out the abuse of scythes).

Now if only anet would start toning down the other ways sins abuse scythes... Oh well, whatever, good enough for me!

Yeah man, I agree.
I meen, I <3 Sins & one thing they lack, is an IAS, there's only 1, which is PvE only.
ANet /fail. Buff something, gets abused by /Ranger /Para scrubs. And it gets the nerf.
GJ Izzy!
There's a reason that sins don't deserve IAS, scythesins running around spammiing 120+ dmg crits, turrent sins, and interrupt bots sins with disrupting accuracy are far from being a good thing for the game.But now the scrubfest has ended, yay for ANet.

Hmmm...
*Sigh*
For the love of PvE, A'net~!
Please-Please put back the attack speed up to 35% for PvE~!

I don't care if you tone PvP down to the roots of hell, or left it for daggers only, but for the love of PvE, give back the attack speed~! 20% is TOO SLOW, heck even warriors chop/slash at 33% ridiculous speed with Strength 1-16% penetration damage (instead of critical attack with a cheap 7-17atk dmg). PvE... *sniff* PvE...

You've done it before to other skills, PvP(reduction)|PvE normal, why not for this nice and only beautiful elite skill.

Meh told Tyla this was coming. 37% is too fast anyways, still 25% I would guess at 16 Crit so that's okay. Should be 33% for PvE though.

Until you saw under the mask. Take a good look at the faces of female assassins in Guild Wars.

Another PvEr. No one, not even Anet cares about PvE since the game was built to be PvP.

Now, on topic. I suppose 18% wouldn't be bad....if it was when your critical strikes was at 8. Not all assassins run 13 critical strikes. I do, but just saying.

It couldn't last forever, you know that.
But maybe reverting the buff to pve only might unglue critical agility from assassin bars.

Saw the nerf a mile away. But it was fun to run a little [Way of the Assassin] and [disrupting accuracy] together. Frustrating the other side's Ele's with continuous interrupt made my day today.

I was wondering how long it would take to nerf this, it was pretty overpowered.

Low SS rank for critical agility vs Wota, which one would you choose?

Ahh... I'm QQing, but for the exact opposite reason.

Now it will take twice as long for my IP anti-melee necro to kill these guys in RA.


Yeah, it was overpowered. Way to be on the ball a.net. My faith is slowly building back up.

I just brought equipment for my 2 hero assassins... damnit, I was gonna test out some fun builds. They should have kept it for PvE so there would be a reason to use hero assassins (they suck as dagger assassins cause they don't use their chains well, but they are good as bow, spear, or scythe sins). It's not broken at all for PvE since PvE has critical agility anyways.
