Cool.. I can't wait for the update at last.
Hopefully it will be a monster update full of 1337 buffs to add new gimmicks to the game
Also, spawn power. It needs buff!

Lets see if you can make up for the delay by finally getting rid of shadow form.

Thank You Ms Regina, I was just about to ask when can we expect the April XTH rewards. I hope my third account will get its prediction rewards this time. if not it will have been the 4th....

I like Snow Bunny's ideas 
Here's some more:
[Vow of Silence] 5e; 1/4c; 10r "For 5...9...10 seconds you cannot be the target of enemy spells."
[Extend Enchantments] 5e; 1/4c; 20r "For 5...17...21 seconds enchantments cast on you last 100% longer."
Also... remove energy loss from [Holy Wrath] ...
^^ should mix it up a bit
:P

Wow you guys are such bitches.
Anet tells you that something you want is coming, and you say the game is broken and they don't care.
Just be happy and wait a week for some skill changes instead of flaming.

I agree, sins have been nerfed to dust, we need buffs!

Screw the skill balance, just add the following.
Pretty please ;-)

[Decapitate] -> You lose all adrenaline and all Energy. If this attack hits, you deal +5...41 damage and cause a Deep Wound for 5...17 seconds. This attack always results in a critical hit. This attack has a 10% chance of instantly killing your target.
Might make it useable...

This thread is pathetic. When was that huge major update the likes of which have never been seen in GW? Oh yeah, like two weeks ago.
Demanding things is fuuuun.

I was fairly happy with the last skill update. Got rid of a lot of problem skills/builds (rawrspike, WoW abuse, "encouraged" split, turrets) Even if they didn't follow our ideas, the game became a bit more balanced after that.
There are still a lot of problems out there. If Anet is also reading this thread, lemme give you a slight glimpse at what we are looking for:
*Increase casting time of all multi-enchant removals to 2 seconds (see ShatterStorm, PoD, Strip Enchant...)
*Decrease health debenifits of LC from 33% to 20%, maybe fiddle with energy/recharge/cast time
*Decrease power of PnH (Lower amount of hexes removed and lower expiration rate, maybe nerf cast time to 3/4s)
*Revert Warriors Endurance to a stance (Easymode needn't exist)
*fix Mirror of Ice to actually deal cold dmg and stack the damage accordingly
*Increase cast time of Protective was Koalai to 2 seconds
*Decrease duration and recharge of Recuperation
*Rework Assassins (see threads made by other players; they have some good ideas)
*Nerf Keen Arrow (damage-wise) and Hunters Shot (cast time reverted)
*Make it so that Strength of Honor and other damage buffs don't stack (Conjure xxx's, Judges Insight)
* Do what you want with PvE skills
A lot of people were happy with the last content update. Don't dissapoint the PvP side this time, please.

I don't think they will nerf SF, UWsc and FOWsc are still full of noob players that aren't able to finish them. These are the last farming groups remains, and lots of peeps just play gw for that (:rofl
. I think they will only balance the pvp for this upgrade

Maybe it gets constantly ignored because there's no way of pleasing the PvP crowd. Ever thought of that after countless updates have been criticized to death and cried about incessantly?
And here, if you think otherwise, I'll link this post to a QQ thread about the May balances that will inevitably arise seconds after the skill updates are released.

Hurray. We have to wait another week so we can learn what skill or three has been minorly tweaked and which dozens of neglected skills have been ignored yet again.

Ok, well thanks for the heads up. I'm inclined to be understanding as the content update was impressive, nonetheless, this is a bit long to let the meta go completely stale. Anyone else sick of: W/A, W/Rt, R/mo, Me/Mo, N/A, Mo/E, Mo/E, E/Rt?

2. Should they put time in making the update, yes or no?
If I was the guy working at ANET, I wouldn't spend a minute to help this pitiful community.

Sorry that the vocal minority was displeased with the major update. Don't try to minimize the magnitude of the update just because you didn't get your toy.

PvP on the other hand, plays against other players. People generally dislike unbalanced situations, and therefore want them changed. As fun as it is to call PvP players the vocal minority, there is still a strong playerbase that enjoys playing PvP. And the moaning etc is all in the hope that eventually we will get listened to and some needed changes will take place.
It's ok, you just stick your zoo :3.

Regina,
Maybe you could ask the update team to be less lazy this time and make the pvp/pve changes different. Seeing the "balance team" make the exact same changes to the exact same skills 2 months straight for pvp and pve is pretty disheartening.

PvP doesn't have even close to the importance it had when the game was new.
I'm a PvP:er myself but some of you guys have to realise you'r not daddys favorite girl anymore.
