My worst fears confirmed (as were my hopes)...

While I was playing FPE at 8:00 10+ gmt There was the person incharge of the skills her name was "Isha <and somthing else gose here...cant remember>"
I asked her a few questions one of them regarding 55hp monks and ss necros...I asked him weather he'll Stop 2 man UW farms and gave him a sugestion to take away the -50hp offhands to reduce the efectiveness of 55hp monks...He just replied "in factions there will be another super hard area like the under world that wont be easly beaten by two man builds..." I was happy to hear that but while he said that he also meant that he is not going to stop the UW being abused...

So for all of you wondering wether the 55hp monk is going to be nerfed...
This is the horrible truth.

Feed back accepted =).

Wow you're right. Doesn't seem to be any ambiguity to the above statements...

i was in that town while the guy was talking. i couldnt catch all of it but most of what i got was him just teasing you with nips of info about the full release

his name was Isaiah something

Isaiah Cartwright, Anet staff.

Izzy is male

i dont care.. i never do 2 men runs

farming alone or nothing

What you posted doesn't indicate a nerf per se. It just means that 55 monks (as part of two man or solo) probably won't be able to farm the new UW-equivalent Factions areas.

Ok then...Thats completely true...but why tease me off? Why not tell me the truth?
He told me the truth (that was clear...) about evrything else I asked him... Besides He was answering MANY more people aswers.
Tell me why I am the one he chose to tease off...
He even said a stament in reply to change the subject he said "<somthing gose here> I give a kick to solo'rs" (atleast I think he tried to change the subject but I might be wrong...)

This should answer some of your questions.

Ps. OFF TOPIC: Isasiah is genraly a girls name lol (I know im not a very good speller)

because its a preview.

the only real answers i saw him say was simple things like minor changes to skills etc, what you will probably find out later in preview event

would you have wanted the staff to tell you what happened at the end of hells precipice in the original GW beta event?

Exactly but I am trying to say that he leaked info / hints, that he wasent supposed to...

*Nod nod*

you just changed your post to drive a different angle. my comment trying to explain to you is now void because you changed 1 word in the beginning. please dont do that heh

Dam all you farmers! (well atlest 55hp/SS ones...)

I know you think that im like "[email protected]!!111 LOOKIE LOOKIE NERF NERF NERF NERF," just for attention... but thats not the case...Im against all the ways to abuse the game a little but im DEFENATLY agains the 55hp monks and SS necros...The UW is supposed to be a high level area left to experianced players to have fun...Not an ecto farm ground

Meh...I saw your post so i changed so that you understand it aswell and not make all the people say "Look! A noob thats being teased off, Lets go to the other post about warrs being better than ele's" (yer..I know the post is now old)

55hp has been around for a LONG time, anet could have nerfed so easly a long time ago


Prot spirit: Target ally Cannot lose more than 10% health from any single attack or spell. Prot spirit ends if allys maximum health is below 150


Wouldnt affect anyone but the 55hp farmers, so its not because they cant, its because they dont want to nerf it


Not everybody wants to have to find half a dozen people (who often end up ruining the fun for you anyways) Give me one good reason they shouldnt be allowed to play it theyre way?

The only problem is with the drop system- more people should mean more drops, and that isnt limited to 2 man UW, think the 5 man Oro team

I say amen to most of what you said but for the oro thing - its not that high of a place to farm (although its pretty high if you dont compare it with UW/FoW) ...and besides its a team build with MORE than two people. Isnt it what guild wars is about...being a team.

And for the thing about "why they shouldent be able to do it they're way..." because its a abuse to the UW people are making characters for the sole reason of farming. Most of the poeple who attempt to make such characters usualy choose an SS necro,
and a 55hp monks' for rich people who want to get even richer; one word : Greed

Like any other game, the most innovative are usually the most successful. If you'd get off of your high horse for a while, play the game and quit whining, you might find some innovation yourself. But I guess it's so much easier to ride the current "nerf this" bandwagon.

What's next of your whine list, errr, agenda? Nerf solo warrior farm builds? Nerf trappers? If it bothers you so much just quit. Quit playing, quit whining, just quit.

i doubt he meant it to be what you are making it out to be hockster


im 50/50 on the farming topic thats been floating around this section of guru lately

its a pain in the ass that people farm to the point where the items you are trying to sell to make money are cheaper than they used to be but look at the whole other side of it, struggling characters who farm char hides in ascalon because they arent that great of a character yet now have a jump start because that 10 minutes after it came out 100k item is selling for 5k in just a matter of weeks.

but then we get into the rich vs poor argument... rich people wanting greed and to make it harder for poor people to get good items to possibly...dare i say, get it on their own? hnoes!

I said it once and ill say it again...
Did you even read the above posts before posting yourself?
I Have played the game enough to know that the SS necro and the
55hp monk are abusing the UW - Yes I repete (srry for speeling) - SS necros and 55hp monks are abusing the UW.
I could say alot more but I am going to calm down on your coment...I dont want this thread to be another flame ground...If you support the 2 man runs
then please leave this thread. If I have offended you I am sorry.
I hope that you see the game the way that I do in future.

P.S Read 96's post...he probally expplained it better than me and might I add ignore this post

damn those who are against farming cauz they cant do it and find ideas themselves and start doing there "cut/paste" of popular builds
THAT is why runs are nerfed, cauz if poor whiners ...

items requires money and i dont intend to get gold by selling the 3 white items given to me in a 1hour borring coop mission..

Coop game = no drop
Hench play= nothing on ground either

u want money, u find a damn way to get some !! is that so hard to get ??
plus, this is legal way, not a bot/cheat/ebay crap

so, stop that stupid debate and if you are against farming, stay poor and go pvp (not the right thread either)
