Wild Strike Useful Now?

Wild Strike is now unblockable no longer need to use expose on stances for sins. Just put your input.

Edit: Fixed my stupid mistake.

Is it?

New change today or something?
I was unaware of it being so..... Guess I'll have to check later when I can access the updates page from home.

But this will certainly make fighting rangers easier. Good stuff.

any enchant + [skill]golden fox strike[/skill][skill]wild strike[/skill] is now very nice !

Golden Fox is now 4s recharge, I like!

Yes, from the update yesterday. Brilliant, but a bit late. Great recharge on such an attack too. But lead attacks got buffs all around (one causes 5..20 sec bleeding now).

Could someone inform me of all the Assassin buffs (and nerfs) here?
I can't access the Guild Wars site from work to see them myself.

Quote: Assassin
Dark Apostasy: reduced casting time to .25 seconds.
Fox Fangs: reduced activation time to .5 seconds.
Golden Fox Strike: reduced recharge time to 4 seconds.
Iron Palm: reduced Energy cost to 5.
Jagged Strike: increased Bleed duration to 5..20 seconds.
Jungle Strike: reduced activation time to .5 seconds.
Locust's Fury: reduced recharge time to 10 seconds.
Palm Strike: reduced Energy cost to 5.
Unsuspecting Strike: reduced recharge time to 2 seconds.
Way of Perfection: increased duration to 60 seconds; decreased casting time to .25 seconds.
Way of the Empty Palm: reduced recharge time to 10 seconds.
Wild Strike: this Skill is now unblockable Unsuspecting strike could use a better buff. Way of the Empty palm looks really good now.

I lol'ed at unsuspecting strike.

It implies you switch target because if you use it once on a target, he will be <90%, and losing your bonus damage. It recharges in 2 seconds so you should have switch targets by then! For a whopping 10 energy!

Way of Perfection (or any other enchant, mending anybody? ~~), Golden Fox Strike, Wild Strike vs Rangers? Epic win full of lulz

Are we in the 'nuh-huh, because ranger could, like, go and dis shot him' and 'nuh-huh, because A would be running Crit Defenses!' territory?

Anyway, Golden Fox Strike > Wild Strike > Shattering Assault - lil' Grenth? ~~

I really like how sins got extremely buffed after this update. Even when adding in the previous "nerfs" (which aren't even nerfs...all they did was make SP less overpowered), 99% of PvE sins are better off now. Good direction anet is going towards.

i agree with what others said, the unsuspecting strike buff is retarded... why would you hit & switch targets as a sin? it defeats the whole purpose of a sin. Anyways, leave the recharge at 4 secs. 2 secs seems worthless since there are no 2 sec offhands. If they want to buff it they should make it cost 5 energy instead of 10.

fox fangs is useless now but other than that Wild Strike isnt that big a deal -_-.

Kournan Bowmen will at last feel my daggery wrath!

I've had a lot of success with the following Build
[skill]Golden Fox Strike[/skill][skill]Wild Strike[/skill][skill]Death Blossom[/skill][skill]Moebius Strike[/skill][skill]"Go For The Eyes"[/skill][skill]Critical Eye[/skill][skill]Critical Agility[/skill][skill]Critical Defenses[/skill]

Remember GFS has a recast time of 4, and WS is unblockable. Guru should really update their database.
