Well, rumor has it that IWAY is being nerfed. Does anyone have any information on this? I myself don't want it to be nerfed for the following reasons.
1. Easy fame.
2. Easy faction.
3. Free wins in Halls.
I can't really think of a reason to nerf it..Besides warriors with +6 regen for 60 seconds trying to kite you Oo

I'm stating what I heard, not what I want. I'm just asking the community if they have heard any news on this.

Stop nerfing, think, and counter.

Stop your bitching and fight your way through it...

To be honest, if builds keep getting nerfed like this, I'll end up leaving GW, because the whole draw to the game is finding unique ways to utilize skills... if, everytime I find a new way to use a skill, that idea is nerfed, then... the game will just suck. Leave the IWAY builds; just because people don't like using Mesmers doesn't mean a build has to be nerfed.

Soothing Images!

Ineptitude!

Stop whining! Just try crafting a mesmer-heavy build with some guildies.

If ANet listens to every immature kid that whines about a build and wants it nerfed, there'll be no game left to play...

Read my posts please. I'm asking if anyone else KNOWS about the so-called nerf. I am not ASKING or CALLING for a nerf. I'd rather them LEAVE it because IWAY=The 3 reasons I stated above.

The only "nerf" I could see that would make sense would be changing IWAY itself so that it doesn't trigger off of dead pets. I don't think this is now ANet intended the skill to work. Honestly, for the longest time the only reason I thought it was in the game at all was for White Mantle Knights/Zealots/Justicars to abuse. :P

W/O nerfing, ANET OFFICES would be empty, they would not have anything to do, as creating new game content is far off the list compared to nerfing the hell out of the game to the point of no fun anymore. TBH, W/o the solo aspect of the game, I lost fun out of pve, as I enjoyed going to places by myself and seeing what I get along the way, I hate travelling in groups, so many idiots out there. PvP is kinda boring at times w/ all the planning that has to go, mostly prefer to be in comp arena nowadays, its fun to just chill and just try out builds. GvG and Tombs is just all about abusing mechanics anyway, gvg aint fun at all w/ this stupid victory or death, tombs is mostly the same people using the same builds as everybody else.

After getting my rank 3, I said goodbye to tombs, w/ my mic not working due to my soundcard, can't really be that effective in gvg. W/ PvE dead(for me) I'm just left trying to sell all my belongings and prepare for the expansion, and hope it doesn't come diluted, GW was so fun when it first started till the nerf bombs came.

For each nearby dead ally you gain 10 seconds of +33% attack speed and +1-6 health regeneration.

The normal build is

6 W/R with pets
2 Necros with orders.

The pets die and they all use IWAY

Not really >_>

Tombs can actually involve some originality

Speculation is really useless. No official word on projected balance issues has been released and won't be until the upcoming ladder reset.
