I noticed that the Bloodstained Boots have been altered; anyone know if any of the other "unusual" armours (ie. Knights, the Mesmer '+15 amour while casting') have been changed?
Actually, I note thaat Knights now has "non-stacking" beside it... I wonder how that interacts with runes... /ponder
Armour changes

the non- stacking think on knight's armor is a just a clarification of how the armor works - You get the same amount of absorbtion with 1 piece of knight's armor as with a full set (it's global). As for the absorbtion runes, they do stack on the armor's absorbtion property.

has the description of what bloodstained boots been altered? For example, staves with a 20% casting bonus now explicitly state that the 20% chance relates to getting a reduction of half in the casting time.
Does the bloodstained boots description now state what the redcution on casting time is for corpse exploiting spells?

It's now 25% reduction on corpse targeting, min cast time 1/4 sec.

I have also noticed the bloodstained boots, another thing i have noticed is my stoneheart - now instead of it being a 20% of faster skill recharge it halves the time of recharge. The only offhand I've noticed changed, but i wonder what other ones are like this.
brokenkey
they are all like that. It was always the case, Anet is now just being more specific about the nature of the bonus that the 10%/20% chance will delivery.

ur testing boots has +20 Armour and +10 Armour (vs phy.) respectively
Savio
I'm assuming Mergoyles are Chaos-type damage because they're Mesmers and the projectiles are the right color, but I'm not absolutely certain as there isn't anything weak or strong against Chaos. I'm pretty sure it's not physical damage though, which is all that matters.
On a side note, Absorption runes don't stack, even though their descriptions don't say "non-stacking".

YES! Thanks devs! 
My largest problem with Guild Wars has been addressed. Now people cant exploit the knight boots. Time to break out my knight set.

Um they removed global reduction, didn't they? Or did I misread? I didnt play warrior for a while (a week or so).

Sorry for my misinformation. :/

Alright, in case the point of this thread is unclear, I'll sum it up. Absorption is STILL GLOBAL as tested by Savio. Thank you.
Sereng Amaranth
when you say global, do you mean you need all the pieces for it to work?
just playin
just playin

Doesn't Whirling Defense trigger on Missed Projectiles? Sure you aren't talking about Dryder's? Sure they weren't Mergoyle Wavebreakers?
As for the $100 question, thanks for answering it ^___^
I also tested runes now, and they'll note if they're stacking or not.

Mergoyles hit for cold damage, even though they use mesmer spells and throw pink globes - use Mantra of Frost to verify it for yourself if you like.
