I remember that buff, My go to was a beguiling haze assassin that could disable any monk and then would drop those turtles in seconds. If there where none of those warrior mobs at least. You can play the dumbest stuff in that game and have a good time. One build i remember doing was a signet of illusion Me/a (skill stealing build), stole a bunch of skills off a couple of monks and became a pseudo heal with both word of healing and healers boon. .... I got accused of hacking lol.

I kinda just scan health bars dancing around, look for the lowest one and just try and ... click on them... Look I know its not prefect method, im doing my best.

Anyone with a norn or charr should know how this would turn out.

The relic run in Heros ascent is a good format, though the whole Hall of heros format was a bit restrictive in terms of time commitment. Needing to win several pvp matches in a row to get to that point is not really casual friendly. Thats why AB was as popular as it was. You can easily get in a match... (and play ring around the rosie with the other team) I liked Fort aspenwood for this reason.

Can the shroud button please get a 1 sec cooldown to prevent accidentally double tapping. Really annoying to pop in just to fat finger it and pop right out.

Not just class skills and traits, rune of tormenting took a nerf bat to the groin. Which is great, since I just bought a set last week 😞

I just loaded in to unlock the spec on all my characters, haven't played really. Noticed that there hasn't been any changes to the new specs from beta 4. Not that I noticed at least. Alittle disappointing.

Yes Edit: "create breathing room for the new specs coming in"

They are turtles by tyrian definition if that helps.

youtube and twitch content creators like wooden potatoes and laranity already have a video up on their channel

There was a patch right before Xmas, where there was nothing for the thief. So that was cool I guess.

Try being a thief player, where no patch notes is a good patch for them. Most of the time any buff thieves get comes with a hand full more of nerfs. Sometimes you get things that are pre-nerfed https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Deadly_Aim_(trait) - pistol skills now pierce, but deals 5% less. That was reworked from another trait and came like that. Fun times.

Doesn't matter what your feelings are on stealth and thieves, everyone here should be upset about 40s untraited heal. If it can happen once, you know it can happen again, what heal should get a 40s CD next? Shelter? Infused light? A.E.D?

Getting high up time on alacrity means a heavy investment in concentration gear, (currently not available in pvp), a trait that is more design for support, and like 3-4 wells (which the heal would be one of them anyways). Your not roaming, decapping, or +1ing with that kind of build. Alacrity should not be remotely considered for this nerf.

Its not just aoe boon applications and to this extent healing. but also reviving. Its much easier to pick someone up who is next to you than if they were off in a corner. Damage also favors melee combat, as range doesn't and shouldn't do the same dps. So those 3 factors is what causes this stack and attack meta for the last 10 years. At this point is so ingrained with playbase, that trying to break this will have a severe negative effect on the game.

Hide in shadows going from 30s to 40s is not a minor change. Question judgements all you want, it's been 9 years of this, people are getting tired of these "minor changes"

I know HoT wasn't, it was 3 ish month after release.

Pretty sure power from the leech is from the thief, as i can see the damage numbers when allies attack on the chat window. I would like to see venoms become ammo skills with each charge not able to stack with other venoms, to make it easier to balance. I don't mind the trait being in shadow arts as I feel like the support aspect of venoms should be the focus. Also some venoms could be redesign to provide more utility or support, like one that transfer conditions, or maybe boon steal.

Guardians still have a good amount of stab and prot, with the only good source of aegis. So unless they touch that, they will still be a high value pick for any group. The most i can see happening is the 10 man buffs going down to 5, and maybe adjust alacrity and quickness uptime so its not permanent with out heavier investment into concentration gear.

So, its seems like the healing from the life steal will scales with ally player's healing power instead of the thief's. Even though condition damage from the venoms scales with the thief. According to the wiki at least, https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Leeching_Venoms Wouldnt it make more sense for a support thief/spectre to have it scale with your own HP? On top of that, think LV shouldn't be in master tier with Shadow Savior. Maybe swap it with cloak in shadows? Then maybe buff the health gain by a bit while we're at it? Any thoughts?

I was hoping that the Vitality in ritualist was healing power instead. I don't it would be that great for a support spec. I think celestial or plaguedoctor would be better

A mount that could walk on walls would be possible. Some say a spider, but I think vermin you see in gw1 would fit this role too. Could use another under water option, maybe more focused on speed or diving/ascending. I also think combat style mounts like the siege turtle could have more of a future. Although I hoping that would be an upgrade given to the raptor and springer to make them more relevant to the other mount (especially springer).

I guess its time to buy up all the gold, silver and platinum ore and ingots in the TP

In all honesty, how should have Anet communicate changes if tool tips are not good enough? Patch notes in the game launcher maybe? Well they give you a link to them on the wiki, but if someone is the type to not read tool tips, then they are not going to a external site to read up on any changes. Especially if it been a few update since they last played. Remove the pet swap button? Sure, but i willing to bet someone will complain about the pet swap button being missing. Sometimes you can't account for every level of ignorance.

Glad you understand.
