I see a lot of problems, I haven't had anything but tremendous lag before I restarted, it took me almost 15 minutes to pay my runner because I couldnt move, but i could type and see what he was typing back. Weird as fugg.
Edit: Invincimonk still works absolutely fine.

As for the 1 HP thing, that always happens to IMonks after a death. The DP brings your health down to 1.

I think this 'Glow' is to denote people that they aren't real players. This'll make it easier to play a henchie party than a full team.

Sure the dying nightmares didn't give you a warm welcome by removing your enchants?

I feel your pain.
Oh look! a big battle! First im here, then POOF! im over there! Then, where did those 15dp come from? Running the game at like 3 frames per second can be slightly difficult
And as for the invincimonk in the UW, Me and a friend were down there and me being on a laggy comp and all I die.."occasionally". Well, i had around 40 dp, had my armor/items arranged so i had 16 hp. I run into battle, cast stuff, hope not to get interrupted, and i watch in shock sa my health goes down to 1/1. Then dead. I tried this 2 more times, and was getting REALLY confused and pissed at the crazy lag, when it hit me. /doh The deep wound lowers max hp by 20%. im assuming that the 20% has more effect when you already have over 20dp or so, because the DP percentage works kinds wierd on 55 hp builds. Need proof? 15% off of 55hp SHOULD leave me with 46hp. But no. I get 1 hp.

Alright, since no one seems to be talking about it, let me describe the blue aura glow from what I've observed:
- It's the same blue aura you get when you're PvPing with henchies and they're on the blue team (Academy and possibly Tombs?))
- It only appears in mission areas.
- It only affects the henchmen, the Xunlai Storage Agent, and the NPC which gives you the background on the mission. The Merchant is not affected.
Feel free to add or correct my observations.

I changed the build around and somewhat got it to work, but something is definitely a lot different than before. Not just in UW but everywhere, and trust me Prot Spirit didn't run out. Something in the damage calculator has changed or whatever, but they're not telling us the complete truth about the update.

Edited: Required a build re-work, but my monk can now do the entire map at once again. Not as fool-proof as before, but still works.
The_Mist_Mage
There is definitely something wrong with my 55 monk build in UW at least and it is not me running out of prot spirit or missing a nightmare. I've spoken to people in game who have experienced the problem too. Some suggest a bug in Gash of the bladed aataxes etc. Any other opinions?
Will FoW armour get any harder to get!!!? (except for people playing since beta who took advantage of economy fluctuations etc. and ebay people)

even if its at 1/1 Blizzard kicks me from there realms; I belive its because of this new program they have running to check whats running on your comp called Warden or somthing... anyhow.
I never dissconnect from Anet; I wanted to know if it puts any load on them; I wouldnt think so, rather ask now and not pay later.
the only thing my torrents messup is Vent/TS because I dont have a sound card in there... which should be fixed in a week.

Well, I don't know if it's just a few people or what, but the day before the patch I was able to clear the UW solo, and now there's somethign wierd going on where suddenly and for no obvious reason my max hp drops to 1, and I die. There's definitely something going on here that's not right...
Here's me recreating it:
http://paul.daivei.com/gw/thatswhack.avi
Don't pay any attention to why I'm down in the bottom area nor to why I'm only fighting two of the Aatxes, I was just messing around, but pay attention to my health and my enchants and everything else...I slowed down the part in question.
I submitted a trouble ticket to GW about this, and they then submitted it to the QA department...Waiting for their response.
This ONLY happens in the UW, by the way, nowhere else. I did not lose a single enchant, obviously NOT Nightmares. There was a "Gash" attack right before it happened, could Gash be stacking now? That shouldn't be...It's got to be a bug. Just all of the sudden you get smacked down to 1hp total...Not cool.

Also just noticed that your current hp drops down to 1 BEFORE your max drops to that level. What in the world even does that
this is definitely a rare and bizarre phenomenon.Edit: the only thing that can cause this effect otherwise is switching out a rune when your max hp is below the penalty of the rune. Your hp will go negative, and your bar will appear to be empty until you normally regen that 1hp back.

I just checked with 85hp instead of 55hp... and same thing happened 85->1hp.

i thought it was just me & my sometimes crappy internet connection which is experiencing lag issues ingame, but then after i checked my ping which is minimal with my isp i tot that the game itself is lagging... and since this lag happend about 2 days now, i would conclude that somehow the latest update the game had caused it..... i wonder whats wrong...
Asplode
So the reason that screenshot is proof is because your max hp while under deep wound is 34 instead of 44? I suppose the math works out in an awkward way...
I foresee a new Tombs build: DeepWoundWAY. 8 mesmers that phantompain/shatter delusions you in rapid order, bringing your max hp down to 80%, then 64%, and so on until the last Shatter Delusions KILLS you! >:O
As a side note I'd like to confirm the ward/wells border, and the reduction of incendiary arrows back down to 8 from 10.
One LAST edit, a question. 3Mb worth of patching, and it's just a few bug fixes, a small graphic addition to wards and wells, a new clientside cookie that stores your skill list settings, more info in skill descriptions, aaaaaaaaand that's it? There has GOT to be more. I bet there's some latent halloween content in there that is waiting until the 30th to unveil itself.

Is it me or do a lot of people keep getting Neterr=7 since the new update?
Today I logged in.. and immediatly I got a Neterr=7 and yesterday I had a few as well.
(and what does a Neterr=7 mean anyway?)

Neterr=7 means that somewhere along the line the connection's broken. Whether your ethernet cord was unplugged, to your ISP being down, to the GW servers having a malfunction, something went wrong. A lot of people were getting serious lag the day of the update, but I haven't heard of anyone getting it recently.

Did the grasping darknesses have Skull Crack all of the time, or is it just something new?
I was dazed all of a sudden, and the deep wound stacked, so my health was down to 1 too...

I just tried some runs with 105hp, and they were going OK at first...Then that same crap happened again, even at 105hp. The first time my max hp got cut down to 9...Which makes even less sense. Then the 2nd time it happened (a different group, after healing and recharging, etc.) it got cut down to good ol' 1 again and I died.
Whatever's happening makes no sense, it takes your total hp and drops it to 1, then cuts your max hp to some random, low number (usually 1).
And on a side note: I, too, have noticed the blue auras around NPCs and those lame looking red "cones" around wards and wells.
Definitely a lot of silly things happening with this update.
And yes, the Grasping Darkness have always had and used Skull Crack.

I think the deepw ounds were stacking...
Arcador
I don't have the problems you mention. Did they fixed them? No blue auras no red cones, no error 5,4 or any other, no lag.
unienaule
I posted pictures of the red around wells. Go make sure, then post screenshots, since mine still do it.
unienaule
Still have the red cones as of 2 hours ago.

It seems as though the second 'very deep wound' is taking into account your base hp? I can't explain it any other way, but there's no logical reason you should be going from 44 hp to 1. None at all.

Lasareth
I've done a bit more research, and it seems that for some reason, even after the deep wound is removed, when hit even once with it, the old stacked wound returns. This means that you may either go from 55 to 44 with one deep wound, or from 55 to 34. This unpredictability can't be good for controlling scenarios (which is a staple of PvE environments) and should be addressed, in my opinion, by an official in this thread.

Yeah, i have no doubt it can occur. I was just stating that it was the first time its happened to me, but also happened to many others as well. It is not something that i would call stable, like having various places unavailable to travel to or characters being unavailable while stuck in certain places. Which has also happened to me before, but that was a couple months back and hasnt happened since.
