DeceiverX.8361 Posted September 23, 2023 Share Posted September 23, 2023 What difference does it make? To get a jumpstart and save gold on buying respec components earlier than other people? It's not like you can expect anything good, or for them to leverage feedback in order to refine or prevent the release of a horrible update either way lol. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, knowing exactly what to expect and plan accordingly does help. Knowing if something is getting reworked, or how much a spec is getting nerfed. Not all of us have legendary gear to just swap quickly on the fly after all, nor can we just make gold rain from the sky cause we have ten years of a bank vault to dump on the auction house. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Linnael.1069 Posted September 24, 2023 Share Posted September 24, 2023 I dunno what's worse, the thought that they know the reaction is going to be bad and are just sticking their heads in the sand, or the thought that they can't preview it because they're still cobbling together last minute changes in a crunch. 10 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alcatraznc.3869 Posted September 25, 2023 Share Posted September 25, 2023 I am just expecting Anet to bonk all popular weapon after SotO releases so things like pistol/torch on Necros, Hammer on Engineer and probably Elementalist, maybe greatsword on Revenant.... Well there's no doubt Scourge will receive a hit but knowing Anet, they tend to kill things before buffing them back slowly....or not. So yeah kind of waiting for the preview to see how much I'll dread the update 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zoser.7245 Posted September 25, 2023 Share Posted September 25, 2023 (edited) They already warned that there would be nerfs, so it is understandable that they do not advance anything. They know very well that there will be people angry, so why post anything? 😆 Although sometimes I think why they bother. In short, when people don't like their numbers... they cheat and nothing happens. A while ago in fractals there was one in my group and he had no qualms about recognizing it. An "XD" was the single reaction in the group. If in competitive modes, cheaters run rampant, imagine in PvE. About the Patch Notes.... as usual: nerfs here, nerfs there.............. few irrelevant buffs or QoL no one is asking for and finally the most important: A lot of "GREAT WORDS" and promises of "FUTURE" big balances and "REWORKS". Player: Rework of the gyros... when? Anet: What are they? LoL skills? Player: 🥴 😞 Although by watching the Mirage and how it ended................... Maybe it is better to forget that they promised a rework for the gyros as nothing good can be expected. Anyways, be ready fot the "great balance". º\_^^_/* 😁 Edited September 25, 2023 by Zoser.7245 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always loved thorns builds and have been baffled why modern designs seem so against them. It is most likely due in the past full berserker builds would blow themselves up going against individuals that stacked soldiers sentinels or pretty much anything with decent toughness that could gain that boon by a trait or utility skill. Even without the need for increased boon duration with base being like 2 to 3 seconds. instead of it being why is the target I have chosen that is running tank/sustain stats not blowing up when I run full on big kitten tail whip, it's like they are wearing armor or something. So instead of deciding to swap to a more weaker target that would likely shatter more quickly to the DPS it became a complaining situation in which tanks could survive DPS builds. Which pretty much sums up the situation right now where crit damage builds primarily makes toughness/ armor do nothing and to be able to take a hit you want to hot glue a permaprotection dot to your pinky finger and cover it with fury swiftness Regen alac quickness maybe some might and stability but each of those before stab and protection though because nothing like removing swiftness and alac off a foe meanwhile it just stalls their damage rotation and doesn't do much otherwise. Condition builds generally counter most tanky builds because they eat through the enemies "armour" which makes general sense whether it be tanks or healing designed builds. One would figure that crit damage builds would work decently well against condition based builds since burst is a thing I guess for berserks or whatever hybrid it's called now🤔 Boonamincritjaro 🤷♂️ idk trying to understand anet logic is like swimming up a river with fish tied to ones arms and legs with half of the fish swimming up the river to their logical home and the other fish making way in panic towards the open sea. Both fish being use to freshwater and not accustomed to salt water. Once the fish approaching the sea finally subcome to the salt water the fish heading to their logical home take advantage and right at the end of the journey a fish barely gets its fin into It's logical home before all of them subcome to the journey to regain the logic only for the person being dragged by the fish to be send back down the river as the fish pulling them to the logic then spin them around back out to sea. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Retribution triggering per hit meant that any build relying on multihit attacks, particularly multihit area attacks, was prone to blowing itself up if an enemy group had retaliation. Flamethrower was particularly infamous for being a ticket straight to downstate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or it can be a punishment for those zerg balls that just blindly run in WvW since that gets old fast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Specter is still locked to Condi Scepter only, with bad minor traits, which means it still won't be able to use Staff/Rifle/Etc. Rifle still gets no AoE and Dual Pistols and Rifle remain having nearly the same moveset. See, my preview was accurate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XenesisII.1540 Posted September 26, 2023 Share Posted September 26, 2023 I'm shocked.... Pve only. Ele nerfs. No Guard nerfs, they are now perfect, completed, first class officially out of beta after 11 years I guess. And Mesmers somehow escape with only a 0.5 bleed change. 🤭 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
