the update has something to do with a xunlai tournament house, http://www.guildwars.com/competitive...lt.php?lang=en

when you talk to a xunlai tournament person it gives you that URL... soo... no marketplace for us?

Did anyone else lose their backround on these forums? Mine turned white. Think its on purpose?

Or am I getting April Fool'd by God?

This is somewhat off topic from the April Fools topic, but there were at least a few skill balances along with this update. Blessings (Ursan) are 30 sec recharge. That's all I've noticed so far.

Careful here!

Putting Ursan and Skill Balance into same sentence will quickly result in epic QQ thread.

Yeah, actually I just have a terrible memory. The skill hasn't been touched. I'd been using it this week for those pesky 4 man Tyrian missions on HM, and thought it had a different recharge. -1 point for Gryffindor.

I just tried for 5minutes to talk to the merchant in Kamadam and ended up warping all over the place. Odd as i just did a vanquish and had <100 ping all through it

I'm now on 30,000ms ping, wich I believe is 30second lag


EDIT : Just rezoned and i'm on 62ms ping, odd huh

Allow teams in RA, so we can absolutely rape the scrubs who come in fresh from Pre-searing, with a guild team, and see how many seconds it takes to wipe them.

Ooh, good point.

Any PvE character will still see it as normal RA random join; they'll just enter and then get pasted. The same goes for any bar containing Orison, Flare, Healing Breeze, Power Shot, Mending, etc. Grenth knows there are enough of those idiots running half-done PvE characters in RA. (People with fully decked out PvE characters would need to use a temporary PvP character for the duration.)
