Oh, but they have... go try to do a farming run with any SB build... you'll find out soon enough.

Sneaky of them to not include that change in the update notes. Poor form, I reckon.

Wow, this is sad. I was able to tank so much more than 55s in UW, but I guess this won't happen anymore. However since SS causes AoE to low health enemies, UW duo farming probably won't happen anymore anyways.

Which makes me wonder if any of them ever wanted fow armor. I always figured that anet didn't do stuff on this level. Although, I should know better from an ncSoft branch. List of nerfs- I5, ED, anti-DoTAoE, now this.

We don't pay a subscription fee you jerks, why do you have to ruin the game when you're not losing profit from us farming?

Good 55 monks could tank nearly as much as SB monks without it.

Oh come on this farming build has been asking to be nerfed for so long its stupid.

The 55 had a limit, agro too much, your absolutely stuffed, without massive regen you were also stuffed. Anet saw that.

The SB had no limit at all, if it did plenty of damage as most things worthy of farming do, they could be SB farmed. It made farming effortless.

I just think Anet need commending on actually nerfing a skill extremely effectively for anti-farm purposes without making it completely worthless for a change.

Adapt, 55 still works fine, and if you don't like having a limit, create a geomancer, there's this skill called stoneflesh aura.....
Hopefully ele's will finally be appreciated as tanks in farming builds.
