    WvW has always been the least rewarded gamemode.

     

    Btw. The 3-4g per hour from reward tracks is with perma 60% boost.

     

    Without that....

The result of nerfing/over-nerfing the wrong things for a year and a half, while not un-nerfing things that should never have been nerfed to begin with once problems were actually addressed.

    If Mesmer would be deleted from the game,

    the majority of the playerbase would dance on its grave.

     

    Sounds harsh but its true.

     

    This class should have never made the jump from gw1 to gw2.

     

    A class thats by design antifun + MASSIV powercreep.

     

    No wonder people want to see it gone.

    > Overall impression of the pre patch changes, this isnt going to effect the current build setup of PvP play. Aye sure you may have the odd condi warrior in PvP but the meta isnt going to change as a result of this patch. Shame really, i look forward to balance patches but this ones going to be stupidly dissapointing.

    We like how the gameplay changes in the last balance update have turned out for berserker, but we've also heard your feedback and recognize that the damage has been lower than expected for the amount of investment involved. In this update, we're tuning up some berserker skills and traits to give these builds a little more power and longer windows to stay in berserk mode. The Bloody Roar trait changing its stacking method will result in a net increase in damage, so we are also lowering its values in competitive modes, since berserker burst in those modes is already difficult to deal with. Similarly we are also making adjustments to Rampage to rein in some of its excess power in PvP.

     

    Wild Blow: Increased berserk extension from 3 seconds to 4 seconds.

    Shattering Blow: Increase berserk extension from 2 seconds to 3 seconds.

    Mariner's Shot: This skill now scales damage dynamically based on distance rather than using distance thresholds.

    Headbutt: This skill now removes all stacks of stability when casting and does 50% more damage if stability was removed.

    Fear Me: The duration of fear applied by this skill now scales dynamically based on distance.

    Rampage: Changed recharge to 120 seconds in all game modes. This skill no longer grants bonus toughness. Damage reduction has been increased from 25% to 50%. Damage reduction is now calculated multiplicatively instead of additively.

    Last Blaze: Burning duration has been increased from 3 seconds to 4 seconds.

    Sight beyond Sight: Increased duration of reveal applied by this skill from 3 seconds to 5 seconds.

    Bloody Roar: This trait now stacks damage multiplicatively instead of additively. Reduced damage bonus from 20% to 15% in PvP and WvW.

    King of Fires: Detonating a fire aura now deals damage in addition to burning.

     

     

     

     

    My reaction: More dmg? Nice.

    > I heard that ~300 germans trasnferred at once yesterday. And now we have like 60 queue's in every borderland. This is crazy. Wouldn't this kind of mass transfer totally trash the purpose of re-link? I think it makes sense to put some restriction in transferring for the first few weeks right after the re-link.

     

    Our server got killed by Anet by not giving it a link and marking it full, despite the fact that the server was long dead before that.

     

    The only hope for the players of this server was to transfer if they ever want to play decent WvW again.

     

    This Chaos is 100% Anet fault.

     

    After 12177 Hours on the same server i was forced to transfer. Im not happy.
