Not really. The stats are very negligible.

Honestly, this ^

Driving a big mech sounds fun so I chose the last option.

What patch preview? Are you referring to the one one Professions page? If so, that was posted in July, which the patch has already happened. Have you got a link?

As a sword holosmith, how do you deal with kiters? How do you get them back to your melee range if they've got a gap on you?

I'm sick and tired of having to change maps constantly to fix the glow on my Abyss Stalker outfit, please for the love of all that's good and holy FIX IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well it sort of does increase your damage for a few seconds because it ties into anything that removes boons, such as Attacker’s Insight. The trait itself however, as answered above, does not. But don’t look at the trait alone, look how it interacts with other traits, etc.

Well like I said before, when released and before PoF, I was able to see all 6, and I’ve never changed my Charr’s face.

Bug has been around since even before templates. Don’t count on it getting fixed. It is annoying though. Very annoying.

> I get what your saying, and some of the charr faces, most of the original models at least, won't clip. I spent a few makeover kits to test it out. Now I've picked a face that has a shallower chin/lower face model that doesn't jut out so much so I can still see the mallyx model, but I don't care for it as much as the lion face models as it's more of a leopard face now. Are you using Charr? You can go to the makeover dude in LA and check out the difference in face models and you can sorta tell that some models stick out more, but the mallyx embrace the darkness model just adjusts to character size so it's a static size that remains the same while the head/face model can change in dimensions which unfortunately clips in a lot of scenarios.

I’m using an original Charr. The older one with the tied goatee, and the saber-like fangs. He has one eye that’s missing a pupil, like he’s blind in it, and one missing fang on the left side. The funny thing is, I used to see the 6 eyes, even with that face, and I haven’t changed the face since his creation.

I thought that initially as well, but I hide the helmet often, and the eyes are still missing.

For reference, the official HoT website Features the revenant and even has the Charr as the one with the stance/elite active:

What happened to the 6 eyes on Mallyx's Embrace the Darkness form? It's down to just 2 eyes, or at least on Charrs anyways. It used to have 6 eyes. Can we get that back plz?

Quite understandable though. Look what’s been done to thief. I hate saying this about games in general, but I miss thief before the expacs. No sarcasm this time.

I see the internets have failed your sarcasm meter, as it did with several posters.

The SB nerf just verified it. The new elite will feature the longbow. The stealth attack: Death’s Execution, which functions like initial released Death’s Judgment and one shot kills. Skill 5 will be Infiltrator’s Speed, it’ll be a 900 range shadowstep with an ini cost of 3.

Remember the fleshreaver runes fiasco? Same-ish problem, different runes.

This is just something that bothers me, but why do some focus skills and other various offhand skills use your main hand for the animation!? Can we get this changed please?

Yes idealy you should be using Zerker and possible headbutt due to the damage and burst capacity. At least with a droppable bubble it would be a little bit viable for PvE PvP and WvW. Currently bubble is a WvW only thing with the rest of the skills being a graveyard thing.

And you’d take Spellbreaker over Berserker or Core for PvE?

I think you countered you’re own point here with this and was what I was referring to anyways. Even if bubble is dropable, you’d still not want to use it in favor of the signet, boring or not. Further, the whole design around Spellbreaker is to destroy boons. I maybe wrong here because I barely do any PvE anymore but last I saw there isn’t a whole lotta mobs and bosses that use boons.

The bubble would still be a lesser to the other elites that warrior has access to for PvE. I’m pretty sure the bubble was made for competitive play not PvE.

I’m probably in the minority here, but I actually like that the bubble being mobile, considering the fluidity of Zerg vs Zerg.

I disagree, I think it works really well.

My commander informed me that my burn oriented firebrand is really bad for the Zerg and ends up benefiting the enemy more than helps my team. I didn’t really get into why because I had to log off but I’d like to know why it is considered a bad build. He mentioned something about handing them free aegis every time I hit them with a burn stack. So why is burnbrand so bad?

Edit: I think I figured it out. It’s because of Engie Purity of Purpose. And every organized Zerg runs several engineers for that.

I’ve been avoiding the mount attack and I am seeing the glitch a lot less now. Very interesting bug.

It’s happening a lot in wvw too. Yeah I’ve noticed reloading seems to be the only fix. Is it the attack dismount you think or just dismounting in general?
