Preliminary Skill Update Notes: Feb 19
Zahr Dalsk
Bone Spike does jack shit to a 600 tank.
You know what RED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GOs 600s up? Dervish enemies like Rampaging Ntouka that carry Intimidating Aura and Reaper's Sweep.
Not that bad if there's just one of them, but add more and I have no idea how to counter them. Hence the rest of the party, I suppose.

Well i am wondering how the responces will be, although it will most likely force me to hold up a bucket to catch all the delicious tears, which will bring me joy.
lets see how this turns out xD

Shadow Form
Elite Enchantment Spell. For 1...1...2 years, all Balancing that target Elite Area's fail and all Nerfing attempts against this skill misses, but you deal 33% more damage to your credibility. When Shadow Form ends, lose all but 5...41...50% of your playerbase.
Surprise me Anet!

I may actually return to this game if Shadow Form does actually get nerfed, and I'm sure there are many other players who feel the same way.

It wont happen today. I'll be the first and probably only person to think that right now.

When Ursan was nerfed, we had a big Guru party at TOA. Would anyone be up for recreating that?

I'd be surprised if it's not today, as they pretty much said it would happen next month in Jan, meaning Feb. They usually push the updates out on Thurs, but could draw it out another few days.
Regardless, other than the SF nerf I disagree with many of the skill updates, so I don't care. I just wish they weren't nerfing every viable farming method and sending ecto price soaring.
EDIT:
Pardon me if I'm wrong, but every skill that is going to get update was posted. At least this is how they worked it last time. There were no surprises.

They better be waiting to leave the office at 5pm to do the update, cause if this shit isnt today I am not trusting these clowns any more to do ANYTHING worth a damn.

Source?
The only problem with planning a pre-nerf party is that we're not exactly sure when the update is coming. When Anet nerfed Ursan, the time of deployment was roughly (and correctly) estimated within a range of two to three hours. Also, not to be picky, but the preliminary notes say nothing about Spirit Channeling, Ritual Lord, Soul Twisting or Signet of Creation.

They all sitting around right now trying to decide if sf will now be 32% less damage or 31% less damage

# Shattering Assault will be moved to Critical Strikes and its recharge will get a small bump up to 6 seconds.
# We may move Fox's Promise Fox's Promise and/or Locust's Fury Locust's Fury to Dagger Mastery in order to maintain a better balance in attribute distribution.
Can you,,,, not do this? Dont understand why these should be touched at all.

I think Locust to dagger is ok, increases overall double strikes. I would tie shattering assault (fails 50% of time with less than 4 in crit) but keep it in dagger mastery. And Fox's promise is a pointless skill so i dont care.

In Lion's Arch, someone said it was going to go live at 8 PM EST. That's an hour and 40 minutes away from the time of this post.
So let's see if it happens.

For some reason, whenever an update is highly anticipated, anet always runs late with that. I remember the hardmode update that came around 4 am in the night (GMT+1)
Just wait it out a little longer, it will come.

I'd just like to quote Regina here:
"Currently, it looks like the update will be ready on Thursday, February 25th"
She was not saying the update would definitely go live on the 25th, she was saying that at that point in time it looked like it would be ready on the 25th.
Let's not get the torches and pitchforks out quite yet.

Hold the update a few days. That way I can sell my stack of ecto now and buy back 2 when they realized that you were bluffing. YOU SHOULD HAVE DONE A BARREL ROLL SPECULATORS!
