I can play other builds but who cares? I have come up with so many builds that I do not care anymore. I just play to play. We will see.
If you only play for ursan, it really would be easier to put everyone in an IRC chatroom, or just log in and not play. Ursan isn't playing Guild Wars, it's mashing one or two buttons until shiny things pop up.

Uh if you don't play for the skills then why are you playing Guild Wars?

That's like saying "I don't play Halo to shoot things".

LoL bitch please. Kill the game? There were 3 other Guildwars games before EoTN and I think we all enjoyed it well enough before then.

It's killed the game because like you say...nobody thinks of skills anymore, everybody can relax whilst playing HARD MODE (supposed to be harder.) See the pattern? It's made PVE at elite level a pisstake.

I'm max ursan, but I know how much it's ruined the game. HARD MODE - easy. HIGH END AREAS - easy. If you've played the game from the start like I have, then you'll know the game should be about getting together, planning strategies and attacking elite areas with plans. Now it's just a simple button bash, turning elite areas and most PVE into a game for retards. I'm glad you like it though, and hope you and your friends will be able to get enjoyment out of the game WITH POTENTIALLY 1 MAJOR SKILL CHANGE.

When I'm optimistic about an update nowadays, there's something wrong with Arena Net.

Only reason I take ursan is for the unconditional knockdown, high damage, can take 7 other bogus skills, 2 skill caps, etc..

But my question is where did everybody get this knowledge ursan is going to be nerfed at all

For all I know that's a rumor

QFT. If you're gonna QQ about Ursan being nerfed then you probably sucked at the game before Ursan came out.

Tactical as in if you use it, your character gets deleted. Smart choices for smart places in my opinion!

Another week delay...

WOW, Anet really is on fire:

So wait, we're going to get the May/June skill update on the 8th of August?

Wow, Anet REALLY is on top of things... 2/3 months delay, they must be working REALLY hard on GW2...

Not looking forward to it, as you know they will say:

Week 1: "Some members have fallen ill, we'll do it next week"
Week 2: "We've been REALLY busy this week on GW2, we'll have it ready by next week"
Week 3: "Yeah, the double Zaishen Chest drops weekend was SOOO much to code, we REALLY couldn't finish the skill update, we'll have it ready by next week"
Week 4: "Well, we decided it would be better if we waited till after the mAT, so we can get a better view on imbalancedness in the game"

Am I the only that sees the pattern here?

Arena Net appear to be doing nothing and laughing about it? It's rather disheartening when a company care so little about their current playerbase because they're busy with a fictional playerbase that exists only in a possible future.

Of course not. I'm sure the strange abnormality in Moon's movements will cause all A.Net computers to freeze and they won't be able to put out update until September 4th. At least.

The fact is, regardless of how Guild Wars is maintained from here on out, the vast majority of the current player base will still buy Guild Wars 2 when it comes out.

Not sure about that seekjy. Some new players that still like the game think they will buy. But they too will notice that there's nothing to do once you buy few obsi armors thanks to super easy Ursan DoA'ing. It's like playing on a high-rate wow/l2/ro/anything server. 3-4 weeks it's fun, then gets boring.

FFS each time i read some threads i often find you bollocking bout how boring the game is and how ruined GW is. If you find the game boring PLAY A DIFFERENT GAME!

Ive been playing for 2 years and a half now and still find the game fun. When i find it boring i just take a break and play other games for a while.

Read more carefully, mr Carebear. I was talking about private high rate servers.

And another argument to List of Dumb Arguments under ,,Dont like dont use'' - Don't like, you paid, play something else. I paid for the game and I can expect it to get better. But most of people already saw through A.Net's mask and see that they just don't care. The more people see it, the better.

V So, their vacations started 2 or 3 months ago. I'd like that - 4/12 months you don't do anything and still get full pay.

I just want to point out that ANET employee's have lives outside GW, just like every other person here. Also we are in a time called summer VACATION, you would think they have some time off to visit families and friends, or do you really think GW is the only object they know and care about? I admit, this is a long over due update and hopefully the change is for the better.

I'm looking forward to the HoM update and would like SF to be unnerfed but to make UW harder to solo. i.e. add certain touch/wards/wells skills that would go through SF

"I paid for the game once, played for a 3-4 weeks and expect them to constantly make it better even though I don't pay any extra for their add-ons."

Anyways, the only thing I want to see happen is PvE get a hugeass buff to make it insanely hard. Even with gimmick builds.

That way I'll be able to relive the past of when I first when to the southern shiverpeaks and fought my way from Droks to Mineral Springs to cap one elite- 3+ hours, best memory I've ever had in GW.

First of all, I will address everyone that insulted me because they cannot handle people having a differing opinion than their own, then the idiot that posted this.

I play the game to have fun, and like most players (most that I still play with, I have pvp'd and all that jazz, not into it anymore as I do not haveto wave a chronic epeen hard on everywhere anymore) I pretty much pve now with a few friends (the list of these friends has dwindled pretty much with no new content there is no reason to play anymore). We DO NOT like spending hours anymore on discussing our set-ups, we have something called lives so sometimes we have very little time to get organized. I use Ursan for convenience, not because I love it or that I can only play using one stupid skill/build. It can be fun to play, sure. But I DO NOT need it. Anyway, I am just feeding trools and shit with this but RED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GOing a, you guys are childish.

Now for Angel, you need to work on your reading comprehension skills. I said kill the game for ME, and above I explained why. I enjoy the game still but I am a very casual gamer. MOST PEOPLE THAT PLAY ARE YOU RED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GOINGS! If they kill Ursan I just will move on to Cabal or something.

To reiterate, I play with a few friends basically to keep in touch with them and have fun (because aim sometimes doesn't cut it), I use Ursan because I have pretty much done everything I want to with this game and it is convenient for me, and really, none of my friends use it because one Ursan in a party is usually sufficient for anything. If it is changed very drastically I will stop playing because I have builds upon builds that I do not give a shit about anymore as I have BUILDS UPON BUILDS UPON BUILDS UPON BUILDS UPON BUILDS UPON BUILDS UPON BUILDS UPON BUILDS UPON BUILDS UPON BUILDS UPON BUILDS....

I don't give a shit anymore, Anet knows this is the flaw with the game themselves, there is TOOO RED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GOING MUCH, and I am not sifting through them all for the millionth as I am not a hardcore GW player at this point.

In summation, waaah waaah whine whine, you are the ball lickers that have been whining for 2 years straight about everything under the sun. You are the people that make it not fun to play GW anymore when you try to strike up a convo because you idiots feel like if you yell louder and are more persistent you win at life. Enjoy acting like you are 11 all your lives.

Agree, although gimmicks are not needed. Few AI modifications and we're fine. For example, monsters would see combo in immolation + steam, change targets on non-enchanted foes, detect stances, attack people behind their target, even if outside of aggro (I mean, come on, monsters are not f'ing BLIND or wearing glasses), react to changes in their health/energy when player used a certain skill (for example, cease to attack if they spot Ancestor's Visage/Sympathetic Visage. And let's not forget about kiting, monsters could start using it. Not many scripts would be required to make even current monsters more challenging. WITHOUT crap like 300 damage on not enchanted warrior or AoE dazed + bleeding + damage.

Then buy a single-player game and use cheats. Or don't go to elite areas if you are a casual without much time.

And you have a very short attention span causing you to not have the capacity to read my post, work on that with ritalin or something.

Also at Abedeus, you do not remember when Anet introduce AI kiting? It was a joke and really ruined the game for a while, they just can't do it effectively.

I think we passed the point where they could do something a long time ago.

Only a large new content update could revive PvE for me. GW:EN was too short and has brought nothing but imbalance to the game (PvE-only skills / Ursan Blessing)

For PvP I want nothing but a few new maps and certain objectives removed. Like relic-run in the Hall of Heroes.
