or is the state of game going more and more pathetic?? dont get me wrong or anything but GW isn't what it was, i dont kno what the ppl at anet are doing but they need to get thier act strieght there are MANY flaws on thier agenda

1stly the nerfing of farming now every1 knows that anet is nerfing farming so the scrubs down in china working at the sweat shop isnt making money by selling gold... true but what thier doing is doing the exact oposite. take this ex:
jon doe makes 10k/hr farming trolls using w/mo all all of a sudden anet smacks the aoe lets run away from everything nerf and trolls are practically unfarmable..
jon doe now makes 2-3k/hr
jon doe finds out that a certain website is sellin 100k for 5.99 USD.. thats a bout a hours pay isnt it more worth for him to BUY the gold than farm it?

2ndly my big issure is skill nerfs
now dont get me wrong again i believe in nerfs and balances but WTH have they been thinking latly? anet "claims" that they listen to thier "fans" but as i recall thier "fans" have demanded some serious nerfs on certain skills especialy SF. you only have to do a quick search to see how many threads they have on it and the nerf in a nutshell states-INCREASE THE GOD DAMN RECHARGE! to say 5 secs... but nooooo the it now instead causes 2secs less burning thats still enought to get off 2x112+-7degen.... yea real big balance thier! i think every one agrees to a extent that sf would be balanced if the recharge was a lil high.

now lets look at another "update" RaO
this is a pathetic excuse for a elite now.. 25 energy and 10-15 sec lasting time.. its nearly unusable due to energy management.. and they call this a ELITE? i coulda sworn that elites were ment to be strong...

oh my favorite YAA
YAA was a perfectly fine skill WTH would u change it?? it wasnt overpowerd because the conditional "near a ally" kept the skill in check but now its been nerfed

these are just some thing that im not realy "happy" about
what you guys think?

farming nerfs?
I can still farm...
:s
Kappa farming ftw...

Skill nerfs?
ANet buffs much more than they nerf.
And SF still works well...

RaO (its RaO not RoA...) is still usable. Put 14 at expertise and youre set.

What do I think? I think that irrational whining is bad.

Farming trolls is still easy with a fire ele and lots of zero range insta damage and knock downs....so I've heard...

And to be honest a tweak of a skill here or there at worst leads me to look for another build. Not that big of a deal....

Yay...another thread related to the terrible nerfs....

I have learned not to care anymore about the nerfs. There will always be new farming builds, I have one character of each profession so anytime a new farming build is mentioned i can usually easily get into it quickly and make use out of it before nerfing. Life goes on.

Well they don't affect me much, because there is a ton of other things to do than farm. And skill nerfs, while they are troublesome, there are tons of skills available. I just make up a new build. Which would you prefer a game that never has any updates/fixes, or GW? I think A-Nets doing a fine job. b(-_-d)

I would agree with you that the state of the game is getting more and more pathetic

but i think this is due to a whole other set of reasons
