When is the next balance patch?

Well. Since you totally scropped the pooch on the Feb 6 "balance" patch... any idea when the next attempt will be? Or do we have a few months of this? :/

Well if you are a mesmer at least, this patch shook things up pretty noticeably. Honestly, just be patient..we have been getting balance more often now so be happy that they care...somewhat.

Game is well balanced right now though' why would you want another one so soon?

Because frequent balance patches are a good thing?

They just did a balance....give them time to even think up the next round of balancing.

Really the only issue still is the 100 conditions spam scourge. I'd love to see a actual nerf to condi since the first "nerf" boosted conditions then the last patch only affected mesmer condi spam and not much else.

What would you "balance"?Things looks fine as i wasn't seen in a long time.

I'd say that by comparison, the phase we're in is definitely better, but we're still not close to "great."

Only funcitoning condi builds are scourge and condi mirage. You can still argue about OPness of some builds but you cannot say condis are OP, because reality is quite different

Thank you for this.People want to ignore condis.

The current balance is the best we have had since PoF release easily. A bit too many power mirages but that's not really down to the fact they are overpowered (like condi mirage or scourge was)

Anyways it will probably take some time to evaluate the current meta and bring the changes

anet's probably more worried about how to shake up the next random specs/skills/traits (bonus point if it's mesmer again) to make you play the way they want you to play instead of actually balancing anything, and, of course, 0 consideration will be given to pvp.

While a lot underpowerd thigs are noticeable watching how it settles down is not so bad. I personally would adapt small things faster but i have the feeling we leave that 3 month balance cycle and a montly one buffing all the unused "Garbage" would be great and cuting the high power creep things after carfully watching.
