Update - Friday, May 21, 2010

that is all.

Ok thank you

actually i dont think so. i just did it with my friend but we only gave him enough stuff to get us 1 parcel and 2 junks, so we didnt get to gwens 7th dialogue - rejection.

so we said screw this and checked if we can get into the keep. the guy let us in and we got the bounty quest

I did all the dialogues with thackery (except for the recruitment), but I didn't go see any of the events yet and I can't enter so it appears you need to have seen at least some of them.

Actually it's explained here

tyvm very helpful if its all correct

Oh, the Canthan Shortsword skin, being used for daggers... damn nice skin, pity it's daggers though

* Seeping Wound: increased Energy cost to 15; increased recharge to 12 seconds; reduced movement-speed decrease to 33%.


At last.

Mesmers got their love finally. At least on paper, the update looks awesome.

What needed to be nerfed, got nerfed.

Nothing big got kicked-in-the-face aka overnerfed.

There were preliminary notes.
They announced an update to come in May and here it is.


All in all, a very good update, especially when compared to some old ones. Good job, ANet and TK, thumbs up and hopes for even better future.

40/40 is still good but doesnt work the same because u still have high chance of getting fc but no chance for double fast cast...

Sh*t the bed! Now THAT'S a pair of daggers!!! Assassin -> dual-sword warrior!

If i get my hands on those i finally gonna make an assassin!

e surge baby!

Mesmers look really powerful now, in fact they seem like the best overall class in GW. Energy denial, armor-ignoring damage, skill interrupting, shutting down melee, even some useful self-heals.. Don't see a reason why shouldn't I roll a mesmer and have some fun in RA xD

OK I was wrong...again.
Overall, a much needed update for mesmers but just wished it would have come a little quicker. Oh well gonna be busy for a while so won't have time to try the mes update.

Now this is a fire staff!!!

the animation is really nice but if only i could hold it in my hand instead of it floating below

I found me a hammer

hot skin, too bad the stats are shitty xD

YAY! for Mind Wrack because soloing monks is srs bsns !

Why the heck did they waste such good skins on greens?

The daggers are actually just dual wield Canthan Short Swords. Most people don't know what they look like because they were PvP rewards only. So the skins were wasted on PvP, not greens. The hammer is a drop from Eye of the North called Archaic Maul but the staff is "new" to players, but it has always been in the game for bandits from early on in Prophecies.

There is also a bow which appears to be the only one so far that has a new skin (a variation of Mursaat Hornbow and the BMP one) and a monk rod which uses the Noble Dragon Cane skin, another one wasted on PvP rewards and a garbage rit green from factions.
