No, it's quite real, In further Dev notes (referring to 10th/july recent updates)

Ursan is going to be reviewed and balanced out to allow further and continuation of character types to play together again,

So i.e KNockin Ursan back to norn areas. Perhaps.

So no is not a rumour.

As for this update, I too am lookin forward to it.

Stances a gogo!

Who cares about what skills they nerf/buff as long as it messes up this stale meta and makes things more interesting again

^I agree with that

However I would like old buffed SF back , but with the plains run nerfed. Killing bosses was so much fun.

I think for PvE, no matter what else gets nerfed, any Ursan nerf will overshadow it all in terms of whining. Even if the nerf is small and only slows down a FoW/DoA/etc run, I expect a lot of crying about it (from ursan lovers and haters). IMO, the only change that could cause an outcry to equal ursan would be a major nerf to the HB/HP/seeds build that all of their monks use. But, even that would be an indirect nerf targeted at ursanway, just not the ursan skill itself.

Hope a lot of things get nerfed, and guilds that dont always run ( or abuse ) ursan will be rewarded for having good builds to farm anything in HM, and are able to do all elite missions/dungeons without the help of the bear.

I have a feeling that there will be a new elite area for GWEN. Looking at the time between game launches and the introduction of the elite area (factions and nf) now would be a good time to open it up.

Besides we exp players need something to do -_-

If that were true - we'd know about it for months now.
Since A.Net WOULD announce it and it's release date would be like 4 months ago.

true this, I am expecting QQing from Ursan lovers and haters, lovers because it gets nerfed, haters because it's not been nerfed enough....

should be a rather fun filled day ^_^

Mesmers dont need a PVE buff. They already do more aoe damage then ele builds. Surely that is enough fr the people that don't know how to use them properly?

Tell that to pugfailz. Besides, Mesmer appears to have only 2 viable builds - AP Nuker + Discordway, or Cry of Pain nuker.

I'd like to see Ritualists given some love.

And not that sodomization-with-a-spiky-heated-iron-rod ArenaNet love.

More of a look-through-stuff-that's-useless-like-Spawning-Power-and-make-it-useful kind of love.

Assassins need some love.

They should return Assassins to how they were pre-BoA nerf.

God, that build was fun.

I could sit here and discuss it all day but I wont because it isnt the place. But Mesmers are already very good in pve and have many many viable builds.

If you want to focus on buffing some pve chars then look at rits.

I'm surprised that all the ursan lovers haven't tried to talk A-Net into nerfing the 55hp monk instead of the ursan skill as 55hp's seem much more common.

Mesmers need a buff.
Just because they have one or two builds that can rival a bit to the other powerful builds doesn't mean they're fine. Especially when they screwed over interrupting with HM and the places where shutdown is really needed can be counted on fingers.

Sorry, but anyone that thinks mesmers needs a buff clearly cant use one properly. My mesmer has been everywhere and done everything from elite dungeons to HM vanquishing without the aid of ursan or some other cheap gimmick of the month. They have adequate interrupting and shutdown capabilities even for PVE which are very easy to use.

What more do you people want? a skill that causes 10 minute blackout on all foes on the map?

I kind of want to miss work just to see what happens..course that's not the only reason I would..but alas I've done too much of that already.

I just hope they do a better job of nerfing Ursan than they did SF.

An elite CoF that wins the game for you and summons 100k out of thin air if you interrupt with it would be THE BOMB.

But that'd just be one big tease.

Well considering they all got off work 3 hours ago I have no clue why people are expecting it at ONE IN THE FREAKINg MORNING.

Normally updates are released at Noon Pacific - Six Pacific. So you got 11 hours to go....

So when it comes to doa now it's mesmerway, ritway, barrageway, or the trinity, and as i recall ritway and trinity are the only two that can complete in hm, although my memory doesn't always serve as it's been such an epicly long time, anyone care to dust off the old trinity for me? i wish to edit it to todays standards.

It seems to have slipped my mind, the only one i can recall involves a pet and that was quite a while ago seeing as there's not magic lil teleing via pet anymore because they no longer leave behind corpses.

I can see it now:
*Fixed a bug that caused Ursan blessing to not kill adversaries in one hit.

The only thing bigger then the update will be the play styles after it; new buffed elites, one less retarded elite, new ways of farming and new builds for general play.

mesmers dont need a buff...it's just like it was with sins during nightfall, it's not a horrible class, there just aren't alot of mesmers out there who know how to play well. mesmers can make most difficult places retarded easy. CoF...cmon..seriously...

if they nerf ursan so be it, as long as they make other skills usable that can let most of my characters still get into a group i'm fine with it. everyone's gotten mighty used to doing FoW/UW/DoA multiple times a day, I hope they give us something that lets us at least attempt to do it in that fashion some more. I mean there's honestly nothing left to do but those things...

They can do anything they like, as long as:

- Ursan is now unusable/only as powerful as normal builds
- They leave AP alone
- They restore SF to pre-nerf state.
