I have heard people saying "oh, noes!! I can't duo the UW!!" and "AoE nerf has ruined all farming! I'm leaving GW forever!!"
What a narrow minded view, why not try some of the new stuff that was implemented?
You know what is funny? I went to the UW, solo, and did just fine using a build that is old as the hills, go figure...

I am not interested in farming solo in the least, but I did enjoy dual runs, for sheer entertainment, with my SO. Other areas and other techniques fail to deliver as much enjoyment as this small run did. I feel robbed.

This is "Guild Wars" not "Completing mission wars" or "8 man pve wars". |

They seemed more concerned with dealing as much damage as they could than their own preservation. This meant that they could sacrifice themselves to kill a player or two. Now, they act more how real people would act. They freak out some when they are losing and try to get in last second heals to save themselves. From what I've seen, this lowers their ability to do damage and I've found clearing out areas with henchies to be a fair amount easier than it used to be.

Excuse me if I cant take the 0.01% of players that cant farm without cookie cutter builds too serious. Leave, stay, to be honest I doubt anyone cares, others will take your place. Thats been true from day 1 of Guild Wars and it will be true to the last day of Guild Wars. For every farmer who raqe quits buying Nightfall there are 5 new players who are excited about it *shrug*..yeah, I said rage quit because thats what it sounds like, whiney prepubescent teenagers who dont get what they want and throw a tantrum. In 2 weeks they'll all be back farming with a slight change in skills once someone posts a good new build. |
Grow up. There are reasons why business file for bankruptcy - and sometimes it can be tied to alienating a huge population of buyers. And that, my friend, are the hardcore gamers - the ones that are pissed off about the change. Look around - those that are upset are by far the majority.

kinda funny Tijger did you ever use the 105/55 build. as far as it being a cutter cutter build ill let you in on a secret. i was one of the first to have that build, 3 day off the shelf. whos using whos cookie cutter build.
now when did i ever say i was quitting, please find my qoute on that, better yet, plzz find a quote on when i cared for anything else but the fun for the new players.
yes in 2 weeks most of the left over veterans most likely will be doing just that. i wil be one of them. and i alrdy have my build. and guess what. it hasnr changed from day 1 i created it. now what do you suppose will happen to all those new players who dont like it. ill guarentee its alot more than you would believe. and well if they all quite saying about 30% of the games player base. i can also guarentee you that Anet will care and so will every one shortly afterwards. and well if you dont care you yourself are sounde like the very thing you are claiming to say the whiners themselfs are. i find most adults actually care more about others than themselfs.
