Anput.4620 Posted February 6, 2020 Share Posted February 6, 2020 I see many skills, like for example Dolyak stance, which say increased CD from 40 to 60s, but in WvW the CD is 30s, same with We Heal As One which is 15s in WvW but lists from 20s to 25s.Any reason the specific WvW increases aren't shown? Will Dolyak Stance be 60s or 50s now? Will we use the stupid PvP balance or stick to seperate WvW balance? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tinnel.4369 Posted February 6, 2020 Share Posted February 6, 2020 It specifically says, under the WvW changes, that Dolyak goes to 60s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The notes are a preview, not live. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
subversiontwo.7501 Posted February 6, 2020 Share Posted February 6, 2020 This comment goes for any of your recent threads, I put it here rather than the mobility one but that applies to what I am about to say as well.I can feel your fears, they are not without merit, but you have to keep in mind that the patch they are putting out now isn't a balance patch in the sense that we are used to. It is perhaps even a misnomer to call it a balance patch and it would have spared the developers some backlash to have called it something else.The upcomming balance patch is first and foremost a patch to help the developers (or more specifically the game designers) to do future balance changes. It is not primarily a patch for us. It is primarily a patch for them. It is a patch to make future balancing easier, to help them do better balance going forward.With that said, we can certainly question why they needed to poke at some mobility skills while leaving other (more controversial) skills and abilities untouched. We can question why they decided to poke at some mobility skills at all when the system overhaul primarily targets damage mechanics. However, maybe they are trying some things out while they are working on streamlining abilities and what they take from some abilities now they may give back in other ways later or take from similar abilities on other classes later when they do balance.Short and sweet: This isn't a balance patch even if the title says so, it is a systems overhaul patch. In hindsight, it should probably have been called that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stand The Wall.6987 Posted February 6, 2020 Share Posted February 6, 2020 this confused me as well. why even add from 40s and instead just say to 60s? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If bad now doesn't also come down it near instantly stands to become amazing due to its cooldown or power relative to everything that came down.
