Oil pot range change

[Vavume.8065]

World vs. WorldGeneralOil pot range is now 800.

[Blockhead Magee.3092]

The ratio of changes for PVP, PVE and WvW are about right with that change.

The pirate ships is only fortified with their lack of attention to wvw.

[XenesisII.1540]

Finally we can pirate ship with oil pots as well.

That will teach the pesky rangers pewpewing it from 1500 range.

Edit; Just checked skills, still says 600 range.

[Fat Disgrace.4275]

Did they manage to break something completely of the record like from older patches (rangers can't enter a pvp match)

[CrimeMaker.8612]

Most of their balance went into making those mount skins.

[Roxanne.6140]

Scourges were nerfed in the pervious patch. Some people even say it's not so good anymore. Seems it's a hippy trend to keep bringing scourges up in here

Wow so cool I always wanted to die on manning the oil pot ,does it protect you from the toxic painted wall also . So oil pot range 800 scourge range 1200 am I missing something here??

You can now spill oil on the walls. Rejoice! And the oil still does no damage unless you are manning the pot.....so if a zerg was on the wall charging you on the pot you have to stay on it to make ur shitty damage aoe do anything.

I think it better just to remove oil pots. Statistically, with the exception of the inland oil of double gates of say valley keep, they do more for the attackers than the defenders at this point.

They still design oil pots and cannons as deterrents to buy time rather than counter siege. And they still count an oil pot/cannon as a single player. So when they calculate the effectiveness a single player can do against a group of even just 4 people.......its pretty dang low. So take that number and crunch it to the smallest possible when you have 1 vs 50....and its a deathtrap true and true.

PORTABLE OIL POTS WHEN?

[Malerian.8435]

Also last night in EBG we were trying to cap the enemies home keep. The inner Oil can now reach the outer wall. That is just dumb and broken!
