Trevor Boyer.6524 Posted August 21, 2023 Share Posted August 21, 2023 Few weeks, ha. It'll be upwards of about 4 months at the least before they smooth anything over, and that's if they can do it in two balance patches. Unlikely. 5 2 1 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see any patch notes. Are we expecting big changes? Oh, this is about the weapons usable on other especs. I'm a little slow. 😄 Edited August 21, 2023 by Gibson.4036 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eddie.9143 Posted August 21, 2023 Share Posted August 21, 2023 It'll be fun, honestly when the balance is good for too long it just means 2,3 classes/specs sit slightly above everything else and only certain builds are working. I enjoy the patches to mix everything up. It just stinks when they go tooo far with buffs or nerfs 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shion.2084 Posted August 21, 2023 Share Posted August 21, 2023 It's fun for classes that are actually going to get something out of it. Scrapper meta build gets nothing, sigh should we call this the 6th nerf in a row. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm saying based on the last preview and what we do know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We can prob expect some OWP nerfs and maybe nerfs to skirmishing trait, if they nerf sword damage too much it'll suck on every spec and build.

Hotride.2187 Posted August 22, 2023 Share Posted August 22, 2023 How fun was it, realistically? Sure pvp has some great moments in it, most of it is just bs build on top of bs build though. It will get worse though, I'm sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khalisto.5780 Posted August 22, 2023 Share Posted August 22, 2023 Nah When the patch drops it's the most fun times, it gets boring when ppl figure out the meta and you see the same 5 builds every single game "Oh, but ppl will abuse stuff for rating" Dude, the last 2 gods of arena were gold 3 players, skill doesnt matter much in pvp its been at least 4 years by now 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eddbopkins.2630 Posted August 22, 2023 Share Posted August 22, 2023 (edited) Yeah as a veteran player, I am on the fence about this new weapon changes. It will definitely make what little balance we had on 8/21 moot. But weapon and class variety should skyrocket fun right?

Burnfall.9573 Posted August 22, 2023 Share Posted August 22, 2023 (edited) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oY3Pj33YsHw Anet knows absolutely nothing about Fun. It is the players who find ways to make some fun experience from the game which in the end, does not last because Toxicity and Fun does not go hand to hand. Anet design Guild Wars 2 to be a Toxic experience vs The Players find ways to make fun last = Toxicity Wins Remember, "Toxic Negative Experience Is The Assassin To Healthy Positive Change" Don't believe anything else without experiencing healthy positive changes.

But those that earned what they have - know eachother in matches and on the leaderboards. One of the interesting silver linings in such a small pvp community.

Don't be melodramatic: PvP died in 2022 after the release of EoD. 2023 and SotO is the killing of WvW. 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
