2 Problems

Ok there are two new problems in-game.

First one: YOU CAN NO LONGER USE ELITE SKILLS IN ASCALON, YAK'S, SHING JEA, OR KAMADAN ARENA.

This is simply sad, if you do not believe me, simply visit there, and see what sign is on your elite skill. It's a LOCK.
I simply loved owning nubs with SS, or healing with WoH. Oh well, i guess its time for my necro/monk to grow past level 10.

Second one: Staffs pass through capes, and I mean all Staffs. This is especially the case with female Spell Casters.

ok i noticed the first today but really it should be like that for what u said
owning noobs just because they dont have the same resources is cruel and sad and for the second idfc

If this is an update, I am rather glad they added this. Elites really dont have a place in starter arenas. They overpower the new players to the arenas in a way that turns them off to pvp completely.

Lets hope for armor requirements next to further clean the early arenas of unfair influences that turn off newer players to pvp.

This should have been done a LONG time ago! GOOD ON A-NET! Now they need to keep the max armor out of those places, too.

*Round of Applause*
Took way too long, but very, very appreciated. GJ ANet for cutting down on jerks who made those arenas just pathetic to play in.

As for the second one...there are a lot of clipping issues in game.

2 actual problems I see from this thread:

1. Too many selfish jerks in the game discourage new players from enjoying certain aspects of GW.

2. Whinners whine about everything.

Congratulations for admitting to being one of the scum of low end PvP arenas.

Everything clips through a cape if it goes though the same area. Capes only react to the player skeleton - even armour clips through capes.

This is about a year too late, but GREAT!

Now ban max armor!

great update, and now for the armor requirement upon entering...

About damn Time!!!

Sorry to hear that you are one of THOSE people.

Yeah...I got turned off from PvP right from the start because the low level arena's were being ruined by guys like this: people who were completely decked out with max gear and skills. I always felt that armour and certain skills should have some level requirements, like lvl 10 or something.

yeah, maing no elits in starter arenas is making them fun again,now id see no max armor or weapons.They need to be lwoered to lvl 10 lvls.

2 problems? I see a solution to an old problem, and a complaint about a clipping bug that's been in the game since release. Waste of space.

Well, I guess the op just shoot himself in the foot there. "loved owning nubs" isn't the way forward, is it?

Fixed your post for you.


Only one nub here and its you.

You should grow up and try some pvp where everyone is on a level playing field.

Way to go A.Net, Taking elites into newbie arenas is a pimp slappable offence in my opinion. Glad that's been sorted.

To the OP, Just go to RA instead with an "uber leet build dat cn pwn da nubs!".. there's not exactly a massive jump in the skill level required..

lmfao at the OP getting owned by every post, I agree its a sad thing when you boast about owning new players, good one anet

people play in starter arenas? why waste your time imo

i remember bringing mind shock to Yaks and getting loads of wins XD. Glad they changed it though cus getting an eilte on a level 10 just isnt possible without a run (exept icy shackels or w/e its called but that sucks anyway)

Ok....this is bad why?

Let's see...now the low level arenas are actually kept to low level skills! Ok that makes sense, thank you Anet. Now new (Hate that newb nub thing) players might be able to try PvP withoout buttheads that are feeling ahhhh inadequate in other areas of thier lives ruining it by getting some weird superiority kick off owning "nubs". Yeah, never made you look cool or competant dude, just....sad :S move on k?
