Is this now completely useless?

Shroud of Silence
All of your Spells are disabled for 15 seconds. For 1...3 seconds, target touched foe cannot cast Spells.

Regulus X · Mar 06, 2008, 09:12 PM // 21:12

Yes. It has been rendered completely FUBAR'd. Not only is the duration insanely nonviable, but the disabling of your own and not to mention that just 1 Remove Hex will take out SoS with a quickness... >.> Izzy... Why do you do this to Assassins? Do you loathe them that much? You've crapped on them so much now that there's almost no point to their existence. Might as well change their name from Assassins to Assed-out'ins. The nonstop hail of nerfs is a clear message that you abhore the profession to no end.

and I was thinking of advancing my Sin....

good thing i only invested about 3k on my sin before i deleted him an hour ago.

i feel bad for the pve sins that spent all that money on their awesome skins and such, just for them to run permashadow in pve

who runs permashadow >_>
DB farmer ftw

But yeah, this skill doesn't even approach elite status anymore
IMO, having played it and played against it a few times, it was annoying but not nearly deserving the huge nerf it got

The PvEer's really should cry untill Moebius/Death Blossom gets touched.

And yes, SoS is dead. Huzzah!

Sir Pandra Pierva · Mar 06, 2008, 10:36 PM // 22:36

damn there goes SoS.

Shut up, maybe they haven't noticed Moebius/Blossom yet.

4/6/08 update
Moebius Strike- Changed to 10e and recharges skills only if it kills enemy
Death Blossom- Changed to 10e, decreased damage to +1...5 (to match HotO)

...
They DID nerf Rodgort!

Shroud of Silence
All of your Spells are disabled for 15 seconds. Nothing happens to target foe.

freaky naughty · Mar 06, 2008, 10:39 PM // 22:39

Haha, now a mesmer's blackout is better than SoS. This nerf was pretty craptacular towards sins, but hey why not play a class that always gets buffs? Perhaps a necro would do you some good?

Used on E/D Mind Blasters in Sinsplit.

Mind Blasters are still viable, it's just been slowed down.

As for Shroud of Silence... ha.
It's a skill that could only ever be used for instagib. And it's dead. rawr

Actually, AoD with some monk stuff

But... Sleep easy, 'sins!
Moebius probably won't be touched, it's too fragile for PvP and can really only output pressure (worse than a warrior, I might add)

Otherwise, Triple Chop, DSlash and other stuff would've been hit too ages ago

namelessone · Mar 06, 2008, 11:01 PM // 23:01

Blackout > Shroud of Silence

It's now the most worthless elite skill ever. Just got out of RA/TA with it and I can say with absolute certainty that it is completely and utterly useless (and that was with 15 deadly arts just fyi).
