Give me a break, if you got beat you got beat. Have any of you "leet" PVP players simply tried to shut down the other party with interrupts? Isnt that what interrupts are for? Or is anet now the "leet' PVPrs interrupters?

I havent played really alot since the changes...but even I noticed that

1) It didnt effect PvE that much...MMs are still the same...Hero MMs already were hax at using Signet of Lost Souls anyway.

2) In GvG alot of people run an RC monk now, some old warriors are Crip Slash warriors, Mesmers are branching out from MoR Shame/Diversion spam, and Pious Haste is everywhere.

On right, you only have to interrupt every spirit cast (pain, bloodsong, union, shelter, destruction, displacement+more), Soul Barbs, Recurring Insecurity, Icy Veins, Price of Failure, Spirit of Failure, Faintheartedness, Spoil Victor, Migraine, Signet of Humility, Reckless Haste etc etc...


And to think I thought it was hard...

Paragons have also been hit with the nerf stick every update.... and they were never really overpowered to begin with O.O

no not really, im a PVE/PVPer and the diference is in PVP ur facing grousp of 8 and simetimes 2 differnet groups of 8 who have 8 skills per person thats 8x8 = 64 and soemtimes u double it so thats 64x2 = 128 skills to inturpt witch most r deadly where as in PVE u get grousp of 5-6 with 4-5 skisll per bar meaing
6x5 = 35 29 less skills and about 1 per bar is a deadly move so in a sence the PVe's have an easyer time to inturupt

Going by the amount of screaming and calling for nerfs going on these days, I'd say it's more a case of "Build Flaws"

I play PvE only, and all I know, is that I had minimal energy management problems before the update, now I have big problems. With 12 in soul reaping, and enough damage spells to get me some bodies for minions and to toss about, while waiting to make more minions, I was having fun. Now the character class has been all-but ruined for me, half-way through Prophecies. I feel betrayed. Perhaps I am not the best player in the game, nor the most experienced, but if an update ruins the fun for PvE'ers, then that is a bad update, IMO.

what i find funny is that out of all the professions and there primary attributes, necros are the first to be hit with a timer (5 seconds) where as everyone out there is all fine.
So lets say that SR needed an update i guess the big argument is that why placeing a timer on a profession unique attribute a solve.
Its been proven not to be the fix and i know ways around the issue. but for those that think this was the perfect idea makes me wonder if the same would have happened to u would u object im sure u would be
