Aneeet... I'm boooored...... hurry up...
Pft. Skill updates don't come out at a regular time; save your complaints for tomorrow (PST). They didn't even confirm it would be today.
As for it being 5 months late: A nerf of all major farming builds is srs and shouldn't be rushed. Also, the Test Krewe took some time to set up.
Maybe I have too much faith in people.

Problem is I'm so tired right now, yet at the same time wanna see the update really bad. If only they let us know it would be tonight or not, I could actually know wether or not it's worth to stay up or not...

This is like NFL teams taking their full 10 minutes on draft day. Waiting for this update is painful. Also, if it wasn't going to happen today, they should have sent Regina with a Copy and Paste message for us about why it's not happening today and said message should have been posted as soon as they knew, not at 5PM PST when they are all headed home or out for a beer.

What does a mesmer have to do to get a buff in PvE? I read the prelim changes and it seems they have been ignored again.
Just to be clear, it's not like I only play mesmer. I have one of every character and I've played a ton of hours on all of them. My mesmer isn't even my main.
I have Legendary Guardian on my mesmer so I'm not trying to say they are useless. But the small amount of viable HM builds is ridiculous. The even smaller amount of builds (1, pretty much) that will allow you to get a team is just saddening.
I realize they are better in PvP. That's not the point. I want to be able to play a domination or illusion mesmer without filling my bar with PvE skills and actually having a viable build instead of being useless and having my heroes do everything. I know it's possible to make a semi-decent domination build without PvE skills but that's pretty much where it ends for mesmers.

ESPECIALLY a nerf of all major farming builds should be rushed. Nothing else needs rushing but vastly overpowered skills. It's not like farmers won't come up with 2nd best farming skill. I don't mind if people farm, heck, I don't even mind 600... but SF? It's too late now anyway.

Was thinking, why not make Prot Spirit end after 10-20 attacks? I know no one wants Prot Spirit touched, but I think 10-20 attacks would be fine for normal PvE, but would stop 600 tanking?
Anyways bring on the update plox.

i know me/e solo build to farm raptors with, but it's just mesmer's version of the popular elementalist build. and it's still a bit slower. and using just 2/8 mesmer skills.
must've been a version of sf on echo + massive degen, so just a version of sin's build.
i mean, there are some builds a mesmer can adapt and use. they are slower than original, but they usually work. yet they're not 'mesmer farming builds', since mesmer primairy doesn't make them better and they usually use more skills from secondary.

My money is on them making Spellbreaker simply not allow you to cast spells while it is on you.

At the bottom of the official wiki page pertaining to Regina's post in this very thread: "As mentioned above, this list of changes is not final. Additional adjustments, additions, and deletions may take place during our final week of testing. Thanks for reading!" I take that "Final Week" business as this build is coming this week!
vamp08
Regina, please /resign from Anet
Apok Omen
I wonder if they added Victory Is Mine! to the list. You know, since they are reverting Steelfang Slash, a skill that made BackBreaker chaining possible, why not revert ViM, a skill that took trapping to a whole... 'notha... level?
Also, I'm pretty sure Anet is just waiting till the wee hours of the night to release the update to build up suspense.
Off-topic: Who wants to bet they are gonna fix a bug that allowed Guild Wars to be installed?
