mrauls.6519 Posted October 13, 2020 Share Posted October 13, 2020 I don't think these changes are going to make the meta any better. Thoughts?Edit: I haven't seen comments this detailed in a while. I hope the anet team goes through this thread without taking anything to heart & is able to produce better balance patches going forward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Atille.5047 Posted October 13, 2020 Share Posted October 13, 2020 Disappointing, considering silence and time it took to release since the last one. Heavy-handed as usual too. No meaningful reworks. Bad professions remain bad. Core guard monkey symbolspawn did just ruin symbols for all guard specs, and FB kind of relied on those despite already being in a bad spot.

Excuse me, what?!System Shocker: Reduced base barrier gained from 724 to 362 in PvP only.Bulwark Gyro: Increased cooldown from 25 seconds to 30 seconds in PvP only.Throw Mine: Increased cooldown from 15 seconds to 30 seconds in PvP only.Personal Battering Ram: Increased ammo recharge from 20 seconds to 30 seconds in PvP only.How is that not touching decap scrapper? They even doubled the cooldown of throw mine and halfed the barrier from system shocker. What did you expect them to do, disable the scrapper elite spec completely in PvP?

Marxx.5021 Posted October 13, 2020 Share Posted October 13, 2020 Balance patch is OK. It just took way to long for what it does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GuriGashi.5617 Posted October 13, 2020 Share Posted October 13, 2020 We have waited MONTHS for this lmaoNo Lich Form nerf + no Shock Aura Tempest nerf + no Rene SB Autoattack nerf says it all.

ollbirtan.2915 Posted October 13, 2020 Share Posted October 13, 2020 Balance? More like a bunch of random nerfs done by interns.Guard dead.Ele ded.Holosmith though? Still more than alive.P.S. Extra kudos to the 'special' sPvP treatment that the already extinct commute receives. Keep up the good work nerfing things into oblivion until we are left with an auto attack, a stick, and a loincloth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meteor.3720 Posted October 13, 2020 Share Posted October 13, 2020 Flashbang 1.5 second blind.Is this the new Shatterstone meme? Completely missing the point and doing nothing to address the real issue, but having constant minor changes anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anomaly.7612 Posted October 13, 2020 Share Posted October 13, 2020 The hidden thief nerf is just bad. 0.25 seconds of stealth on steal? Why even have stealth on it at all now? That's not enough time to even land a backstab. No necro nerfs at all. No buffs to severely underperforming and underrepresented classes. I'm out. I'll just stick to WvW. PvP is an utter clown fiesta now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
