There is no positive side of this update. Only some less negative ones. But I wouldn't call a single change made in this update good.

Annoying update, I play GvG as monk, and we often fall agaisnt 3 W or R/D, and it was already a pain in the ass containing them with blind and aegis chaining, now its just gonna get worse.
Physicals are too strong in today's meta. No wonder teams play 3 contacts. So why nerf anti-contact skills?

I think everyone agrees the spammability and instant cover of wounding strike is retarded. Deep wound is supposed to be a dangerous, semi-difficult condition to inflict.

Yes, but those mesmers are gimmicky pieces of shit.

the split its not a great cake...more like a dry cupcake

I believe the term "What else is on?" may be appropriate.

Please dont compare 3 R/D's // 3 D/E's to 3 warriors imo theres a hell of a difference unless you talk about 3 warriors running effing wounding strike lol. Warriors are nothing compared to that wounding strike shizzle

Nono 100 damage + deep wound every 3 seconds is perfectly balanced I see no problem with it.

You forgot, up to 3 deep wounds, every three seconds.

It updated, and i already hate this pve/pvp seperation badly. I only use pvp characters and am always in pvp outposts, however in RED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GOing temple of balthazar it only shows the pve version of a skill. On isle of the nameless it only uses the pve version!

I'm really RED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GOing angry, either make all the battle isles pvp only skills, or make a seperate isle of balthazar for pve skills somewhere in ascalon.

Why give it more time? You would think they expect things like this and deal with it BEFORE it becomes a problem. Does the current situation mean that during the last week, not a single dev thought "but what about the neutral places?".

The temple of balthazar is as neutral as the USA was during the vietnam war. It's a 100% pvp outpost.

Mantra of inscriptions should be shorter duration with more energy cost. The fact that some one can run a mirror and maintain two-three enchantments is silly.

Strength of Honor needs to be holy damage to avoid stacking with conjures that results in Dervs hitting for +30 damage just C-spacing.

Holy Wrath is becoming a problem with two signet mesmer teams. Your warriors take more damage than they deal if they frenzy on a target with it. The entire midline and backline have it maintained on them. It should either end when the mesmer runs out of energy.

Alternatively Mirror of Disenchantment needs to be buffed.

And a ton of other stuff, but that is what bothers me the most.

kind of missed the point on the whole gvg meta, seems like they nerfed the old, not the new lol

tehshadowninjar · May 23, 2008, 02:37 AM // 02:37

Seriously, this update has me beyond pissed. <.>

Yeah which pisses me off, as it was my favorite roll since they nerfed anti-melee Necros out of GvG last year.

Oh well at least this update stopped 100% uptime Shadow Form clowns, that's something.

Snow Bunny · May 23, 2008, 06:16 AM // 06:16

Physicals are RED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GOing insane right now. Yeah, toning down blockway is good, but there's better ways to do it than destroying things to allow signet mesmers blow shit up.

Kaida the Heartless · May 23, 2008, 06:30 AM // 06:30

I'm raging completely at this update. I'm so sick of the slow ass turn around time for nerfs. Continue your rampaging Sway. Long live assassins and rangers!

But Eremite's and Mystic take 1/4 second longer now! That's gotta count for something, right?

Let's all play nerf-around-the-bush...
