What do you think is the best update to GW1?

For me it has to be ressurection scrolls.
Saves a skill slot

Sorrow's Furnace perhaps. Lots of good memories.

Ursan nerf ;]

"Mwhahaha where is your god now, r10 lfg"

best update was when they changed guild bibs to capes

Best update : sorrow furnace
Worse update : codex arena

The introduction of the ZQs was quite a nice update imo.

Probably the mesmer update

The ability to save builds and load them with just a few mouse clicks instead of manually having to change every skill. I still remember all the times when i got in new team and changed skills and forgot attributes. From bip to mm and went in with 12 in blood and 0 in death as a mm etc

the update that gave pvp characters the same amount of weapon slots as pve characters

Skill templates, perhaps? Most utile I can say, perhaps not the best, but one of them. I remember a time where you had to ping your builds, and all you got was in Team Chat, the skills listed as on your bar. You just had to hope the person actually had those skills, and attribs, was a guess..

Worst update, by far, the worst idea Anet ever had, is still the inscriptions. They screwed over the entire weapon market, made every green weapon redundant and causes retards in kama that call me a noob when I ask if they happen to have any uninscr shields, because, of course, inscr shields are far more valuable.. Ffs..

Yea, I can still do that now And forgetting to change head-gear is still a classic! Could be included in the template somehow....

Sorrow's certainly was a fore-runner for the EotN dungeons.

The Gwen/Thackeray story is also a good inclusion, if somewhat over-complicated in the past.

Oh yes I still forget to change headgear. Its even worse now when I usually wear a costume over my armor, so I don't see the actual headgear. I wish anet could include it in the skill templates so you could assign certain armor and weps to the builds. Ofc it wont do anything if that specific piece is not in your bag, so if you copy a build you would have to edit and assign your own equipment to it.

Sorrow's Furnace started it all for great free updates. I think it spoiled a lot of people out there.

Im a latecomer, so didn't experience many of the updates as they happened.

In retrospect, my favorite would have to be whatever update introduced HM. I love playing out in the world, I am so burned out on dungeons after years of Eq2. I appreciate having more challenge without having to resort to dungeon crawling.

Best: Sorrow's Furnace
Worst: Loot nerf

Best: Sorrow's Furnace
Worst: the Inscriptions that came with NF

The best update by FAR was the introduction of heroes with nightfall release, anything was better than those horribad henchies and even worse trolls joining groups just to screw you over.

They also killed gw as an mmo

Well, I don't count that as an update, but do consider heroes to be the best feature ever introduced.

I would have to say Wisdom title track being account wide, with a close second as alcohol turning to points rather than minutes.
