Don't worry, this the forums, complaints will be made, accidents will happen and then we all get another round of -30% across the board nerf bat. 

Feb 20 2024 Patch Notes

Due to all mobility issues we making the following changes:

  • Reduced combat speed to 5%, run speed will now be capped to 7% in WvW only. We feel this change will allow all players more time to prep for and act in combat situations
  • Glide speed has been capped at 3% to ensure it does not take over as top tier movement scaling. In WvW only.
  • With the reductions in speed we are now able to add a new siege blueprint, the Siege Ladder. Ladders can be placed against walls to allow attackers to climb up to walls. Due to the dangers of ladders though climb speed is set at 1% and any players hit while on a ladder has a chance to fall off, please see the notes on Fall changes below
  • All teleport skills have been reduced to 140 in WvW only
  • All ranged attacks have been capped at 140 in WvW only
  • Warclaw speed has been reduced to 10%, further reduced the Warclaw jump height so that all players will need to dismount to go up stairs. In WvW only
  • Due to these changes we also felt players should not be jumping about so much so fall distance and damage has been modified, players are advised to stop jumping down stairs else they may need to be revived by more cautious moving players that are giving stairs the respect they deserve.

Late notes:

  • Fall distance and modifiers have been corrected and now only applies in WvW after the Meta Boss Incidents yesterday. We are considering re-adding daily reviewer for those players helping out each other during those events and will re-launching a Boss Rush Week to ensure players that they can do these encounters safely once again.

🙂 Disclaimer: these are not actual suggestions and no Charr were harmed in the making of this thread. Do not try this at home.

Willbender so op that even ai tell outnumber them. 🤣

Defeating a celestial willbender elite specialization in World vs. World (WvW) requires a combination of tactics, teamwork, and adaptability. Here are some strategies:

Focus Fire: Coordinate with your team to focus your attacks on the celestial willbender. Their survivability relies on active mitigation and healing, so overwhelming them with burst damage can quickly take them down before they have a chance to react.

Condition Pressure: Celestial willbenders often have limited condition cleanse abilities. Applying heavy condition pressure can quickly overwhelm their ability to mitigate damage and heal themselves. Bring classes and builds that specialize in applying conditions like burning, bleeding, and poison.

Interrupts and Crowd Control: Interrupting the celestial willbender's key skills and applying crowd control effects can disrupt their rotations and prevent them from effectively using their defensive abilities. Skills that daze, stun, knockdown, or immobilize can be particularly effective.

Outnumbering: Engage the celestial willbender with superior numbers to overwhelm their defensive capabilities. Coordinate with your team to outnumber and surround them, making it difficult for them to escape or receive support from their allies.

Boons Stripping: Celestial willbenders rely on boons to enhance their survivability and effectiveness in combat. Bringing classes or builds that specialize in boon stripping can help weaken them significantly, making them more vulnerable to damage.

Terrain and Line of Sight: Utilize the terrain to your advantage by forcing the celestial willbender into unfavorable positions or obstructing their line of sight to their allies. This can disrupt their ability to receive support and make it easier for your team to focus them down.

Adaptability: Be prepared to adapt your tactics based on the celestial willbender's playstyle and the composition of their team. Experiment with different strategies and adjust your approach as needed to find what works best against them.

By employing these tactics and working together with your team, you can increase your chances of defeating celestial willbenders in World vs. World encounters.
