You may aswell not even bother updating no more seriously. You guys are a joke.

Wyat Hawke · Jan 23, 2008, 07:24 PM // 19:24

This update is really not that bad at all, I'm excited to see what plays will be emerging from the new VOD situation. Splits will be scmexchy probably...

also pious will be kinda insane now.

Not to be a jerk but these little tweaks that overlook major issues are pissing the community off. People only have so much patience.

Now HA is going to even more crappy because EVERYONE will run thumper spiritway now that IWAY is dead. Spiritway is worse than IWAY and should have gotten equal nerfage. And what about augory of death, and Mo/A + Shove Gothway farming in TA? How about shadow form griefers? People are sitting here crossing their fingers for an update with substance and are getting shafted...

There is more than enough feedback on these forums to point out major balance issues.

What is izzy trying with stability? The nerf accomplishes nothing. What it needs is a 1s activation time.

Also, IN THEORY, the huge rangerspike in vod now makes getting the aggro correctly vital. This is quite a random thing i really don't like.

WHERE THE HELL IS THE NERF ON THE MOST OVERPOWERED SHIT TEMPLATE OF THE MOMENT???!!! (partygon for all you retards outthere)

oh wel...i guess ha is spiritway now and....oh wait nm just spiritway

Anet to players: RUN A DERVISH RUN A DERVISH RUN A DERVISH...

It's good to see changes coming faster than every 2 months again. If the next update is to the effect of "NPCs now disperse when taking AoE damage" then it might all be worth something! Pious Assasult getting massive buffs seems to be unneeded; I would have rather seen how the latest (+deep wound) change played out instead of giving it a better activation time too. At this rate it'll be Ether Renewal'ed in the next update and we'll be back to only Melandru's around.

Cant nerf partygon till you buff party healing options imo.

Nerf it and we will see more defense, less offense than it is now

I instantly thought 3 2 1 rspike lol ur ded when saw the vod change. Have to see how it goes on. Skillupdates are decent, especially the Fear Me.

XiaoTheBlade · Jan 23, 2008, 07:52 PM // 19:52

Not trying to be negative, but I'm thinking at the moment:

K.... is that it?

Allmightybob · Jan 23, 2008, 08:03 PM // 20:03

Soooo, Dervish spike it is then?

Partygons have only been around for the last ~3 weeks. I didn't see any superdefense builds in the 2.5months before it.

Pious needs to be a scythe attack, or else it'll just be used by other professions. AoS nerf is good, but I was hoping for a 6-7 second duration or it ending after 1..3 kd's. You can still "maintain" it at this current state, which is a bit lame.

Fear me change hurts regular fear me pressure builds more than it does IWAY, since SS-DB can only be activated once every 7 seconds anyways, though now you can't save up adrenaline and double fear me (but that requires a smart IWAYer). I'm sure we'll continue to see IWAY in HA.

Sight beyond sight was a good change back, since if anything, I'd rather see the bsurge ele over the motigon since it's a more active form of defense. Seeing R, P, Me midline beat R, E, Me midline every time is not fun.

Pyro maniac · Jan 23, 2008, 08:09 PM // 20:09

Can sever + gash be replaced with pious assault now?

pious + final thrust seems very decent to me ..

Aura needs either a waaay shorter duration or a 1s cast. I guess you could make it end if a certain number of kds are used but you don't really wanna waste more than a couple in most situations.

Also, bring back LoD, nerf splinter and make ancestor's at least 10 energy if you wanna maintain the ridiculous damage. I also wouldn't mind aegis being 15 energy again, it's pretty ridiculous at 10 energy when coupled with glyph.

Rohan · Jan 23, 2008, 08:47 PM // 20:47

Yeah, LoD was an overpowered skill that kept balance in the game. Please please bring back the one second cast.

Pushing Aegis out of GoLE range would help a bit since monks wouldn't be able to cancel 12687 times for a fast cast

erk · Jan 23, 2008, 08:51 PM // 20:51

The 30% increase in damage of the NPC's at VoD is a step in the right direction to encourage splitting again, not sure if it's enough, have to wait and see. The Guild Lords using axe against other Lord is much better then bow.

The skill changes are ho hum.

Aww but I can go L-O-D now lulz >.>

Anyways 30% and 10% a minute seems Wow inducing

Why not 20% at start?

Pyro maniac · Jan 23, 2008, 09:11 PM // 21:11

splinter + ancestors still wipe them in seconds
