Strider Pj.2193 Posted March 6, 2018 Share Posted March 6, 2018 thanks for posting Xen..Good to see they are working towards the OS lobby type place Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elin.2407 Posted March 6, 2018 Share Posted March 6, 2018 First of all, thank you for posting XenesisII.I really, really like the changes! Yes, the new Infusion may push the boons VS conditions a bit further, they provide ~5% to either Condition or Boon Duration which is something but not the world and requires you to get them for every single Infusion Slot.But the Health Bar improvements are huge especially for Support players!Anyways, I hope Anet will improve even more upon the OS!

Rampage.7145 Posted March 6, 2018 Share Posted March 6, 2018 those infusions are just meant for WvW players to min max stats for their builds and whatnot, they are a good addition, WvW has always been about boons since day 1, if you do not realize that u are just a bad player who has never been on a guild or competent zerg. Boons are makes coordinates groups better than random retards running around on their mirage, i mean they are the base of team synergy and group composition, the very heart of WvW big scale coordinated fights without them we would be just 50 pugs throwing spells at each other without any possibilities to push on a fight unless we massively outnumber the defenders, boon are also how guilds and other skilled players can take on bigger numbers.

Trinnitty.8256 Posted March 7, 2018 Share Posted March 7, 2018 The infusions aren't really new new. They were released in fractals first. They just made it more reasonable to obtain for everyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FogLeg.9354 Posted March 7, 2018 Share Posted March 7, 2018 Both Concentration and Expertise are a bit useless in WvW zerg fights. Because there is so much corruption and condi cleaning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justnora.2754 Posted March 7, 2018 Share Posted March 7, 2018 Well i guess these healthbars can be pretty handy if a guards wants to know how far his teammates are of position ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rampage.7145 Posted March 7, 2018 Share Posted March 7, 2018 Healthbars are the best QoL update added to squads in WvW since HoT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mighty Sorceress.2387 Posted March 8, 2018 Share Posted March 8, 2018 Thank you very much for listening to the community regarding party member visibility within a squad. The thick health bars make a huge difference. Thank you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But guardian roaming/staying safe somewhere at sides whole fight is the worst ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
