I'm starting to wonder weather the link i found is authentic or not.
I just clicked on it to remind myself of what might be possible and it 404'ed.
That and i cant find the original thread i got it from anymore.

Yesterday, Regina made an appearance in Lion's Arch int. dis1, for about 45min for a Q/A session. I will now brush up on the "highlights" for those that have not heard already. If need be I also have screens of the q/a session without local chat. - Ursan is getting the nerf bat. It will no longer be able to be maintained continuously. (There may be addition changes to this skill as well) - Other norn blessings are getting adjusted - Shadow form is getting a buff - There will be changes to the UW monsters - Hard Mode will be harder - Hero AI improvements (better usage of skills) - Changes in Victory or Death - Unused leet skills get a buff (this is where people started to ask specifics about certain skills) - HoM changes are not in this update - There is no planned additional content for GW1 - Game Updates are now on a monthly schedule Well, that is the highlights. It will not be long now before the update is launched. @OP, I know how you feel. |

I hope this isnt true, and who said it was ALREADY maintained continuoulsy...it was maintained CONDTIONALLY!
Day Trooper
The Shadow Form buff is what makes me a bit nervous...
As I posted in the 'SF Killing' thread yesterday, despite the current 50% damage reduction SF is still the most powerful farming elite in the game (Sliver Armor + Ebon Battle Standard of Honor = GG). That or just use degen builds like folks figured out within the 1st hour of the last update.
If they remove the 50% damage reduction (and, ofc, still allow it to be maintained permanently), it's as close to godmode as you can get in the game.
Now if they would only remove the 50% movement speed reduction from Obsidian Flesh {hint, hint Anet
}, THEN I'd be happy

A 120 sec cooldown wouldnt effect it much, if at all, just take 2 necros with BiP and BR and there you go, you only loose 2 ursans and instead you get batteries for your monks, aswell as ever-lasting ursan.
When i hear 'nerf to ursan' i think of either a timer, or a LARGE damage decrease. But anyways, as long as ursan is hit in some way or another im happy. I dont use it.
What im really looking forward is the buffed elites, and all the possibilities that they'll open up.

FrAnt1c??
Read somewhere that they were gonna do something to the "grind" titles aswell, anyone that can explain that to me? And will this adjustment be made in todays upcoming update or in the HoM update?
Anduin
Did they mention how hard they plan to make hard mode? I play games for fun, not to get frustrated.

So yes, a 120-second cooldown would be a massive change.

Lol maybe they'd nerf it something like this...
Set all attributes to 0. You have 40 Energy and a -2 Energy Degen. All ursan skills cost 5 energy. Recharge 120 seconds.
Btw why the heck do they have to wait so long to release the update.... but the time its released, I'll be just getting into work.

If it doesnt come out this week im going to have to sit in a dark room with nothing but a very VERY small torch to calm my exitedness. *Crosses fingers* Lets hope its this evening :P ~Lies EDIT: found this link in another thread: http://drascir.net/gw-skill-updates-lol-whut.txt I dont trust it. |

Personally, I think we should have a ursan nerf party!
We could grab some bear pelts, and hunters ale (the drink the bear hunters drink), maybe a votive candle?(all these items can be found in pre) get all snockered up, kill everything in our path using only the club of a thousand bears. Head to the Ursan shrine and leave the pelt, 1 hunters ale, 1 gold and a votive candle and map out. kind of like an omage/funeral prossesion to the death of URSAN! Then have a gvg match/scrim using only the club of a thousand bears......

If it's anything short of rolling the game data and files back two years, it's not anything worth speculating on.
Like everyone else, I think the impotent nerd rage that will surely follow will be far more amusing than anything in the actual update.

Prepare to be totally underwhelmed. I'm betting most won't be happy with the ursan nerf either.
It'll be the same amount of QQing, just from the other side.
That's what they're waiting for.

A few people exit Ursan - the people whose Ursan ended copy it - and off we go!

The anticipation is killing me too, as a side note. Diablo III and GTA4 should be epic! I just can't wait!

I <3 how every1 is all happy that ursan is getting nerfed and anticipating a bunch of QQ bitch threads. But seriously, for all of you who want "da popcorn", what have you all been doing over teh past 8 months? OMG, QQing, no wai!!! Face it, however bad the nerf is, people will move on or learn to use it after the nerf. EX: Shadow form, still used in UW speed clears, still just as fast...

Given the fact that ANet has shown they're not averse to completely changing what a skill does ( see [wail of doom]), I'm really curious about what MONSTER UPDATE implies! It may be like getting a whole new game!
