Talk:Game updates/20070615

This is massive. I had no idea they were gonna introduce all this nonsense. So many things that made me irk with this update...SR, for one. SS price is up, of course, following the SR nerfs. Great. The first Paragon, ahem, "buff" I've seen in a while, though. Too bad it's balanced with another nerf. It's good that they changed Spawning Power to affect more than spirits/minions, makes it more worth the investment. Armor buff cap? Oh god. This could have severe effects on the PvE environment. Lux/Kurz titles are somewhat welcomed. I'm really reluctant with the PvE only skills though. Are they completely necessary? Oh, and I'm glad they fixed the barrage/glyph bug.

 * Signet of Sorrow is fixed! *nails to every necro build*. Now I just need to hit F5 repeatedly to see the PvE only skills, I can't get on GW for a while to check them myself. --[[image:Goteki-45.jpg]] Goteki-45  19:17, 15 June 2007 (CDT)


 * That thing on the target monitor is terrible. one) how often is that even needed? I have never felt a desire for such a thing and two) It looks like deep wound (not exactly but enough to confuse me about 3 times already). &mdash; &hearts; Jedi &hearts; Rogue &hearts;    19:44, 15 June 2007 (CDT)


 * Yeah, I've always used "target self" to stop targetting anybody else. Hadn't heard of anybody complain about before. Dustin 19:53, 15 June 2007 (CDT
 * I'm hoping the retarget thing happens in instances when you're casting a long spell (ie. Meteor Shower w/ no glyphs) and your target dies, putting you on a new target. (You could press ESC, but you'd lose the energy and get exhaustion and you'd have to spend another 5 seconds casting it again) Zaboomafoo 23:09, 15 June 2007 (CDT)

Your skill bar is now cleared whenever you change your secondary. I really hope this is a bug, it's bloody annoying. Copperthorn 19:55, 15 June 2007 (CDT)

Kurzick skills Skills from the Friend of the Kurzick line. Kamer
 * You're late, Already documented here. --- Barek (talk • contribs) - 20:37, 15 June 2007 (CDT)
 * Actually, he left that comment JUST before the last few were added here, I believe. GWiki ftl. Spen 20:38, 15 June 2007 (CDT)
 * Check the timestamp in the history tab ... they were fully listed here a few minutes before his post. GWiki ftw! --- Barek (talk • contribs) - 20:41, 15 June 2007 (CDT)
 * Bah, ok. GWiki ftw. Spen 20:45, 15 June 2007 (CDT)
 * Alas, I don't have a rank 1 faction title, or I'd grab and upload the skill icons for those. &mdash; [[Image:Fin_sig.gif|User:Kyrasantae]] kyrasantae   20:47, 15 June 2007 (CDT)

DoA here I come! Paragons suddenly jumped up the PvE rankings by 300%. (referring to its new Sunspear skill :P) --Xiu Kuro 23:00, 15 June 2007 (CDT)

They have uploaded the skill-balance. i dont know about anything else as i just do pvp. --82.55.172.36 18:15, 15 June 2007 (CDT)
 * Stoneflesh and SR are as in the dev update thingy 86.148.221.149 18:26, 15 June 2007 (CDT)


 * Soul Reaping does give you energy, even if you are at full energy when something dies, but I don't know yet if it counts as one of the three times... since they said it would not.
 * Confirmed. Decapitate is a half-second cast, many Mesmer interrupt spells (the main ones, Power Spike, Leak, and Drain, and maybe a couple others) affect Chants, and Beguiling Haze has longer Daze.  GD  18:35, 15 June 2007 (CDT)


 * How do you know? Falafel 18:36, 15 June 2007 (CDT)

Whenever I change my secondary class, all of my skills are wiped from my skill bar (primaries as well as secondaries). I've confirmed this with a few guildmates. Anyone else experiencing this? - Oser 18:37, 15 June 2007 (CDT)
 * Me and guildmates too MetaleX 19:36, 15 June 2007 (CDT)

New NPC's
Anyone noticed the new NPCs in capital cities? Like the Minister of Maintenance? He doesn't do anything ATM...24.148.188.18 19:03, 15 June 2007 (CDT)


 * Preparation for Chapter 4 perhaps? I know its a bit early, but if earthquakes are supposed to roll across all the major cities, surely a Minister of Maintenance would be someone involved, and perhaps able to give a quest sending one into the disaster zone... -Damasus 19:45, 15 June 2007 (CDT)

New Bug
If you change yor secondary profession you lost your build, at least this happened us in Hidden city in elona. --Crigore 19:50, 15 June 2007 (CDT)

Armor Stacking nerf
Why was this done? Does it mean you can't combine Dolyak Signet, Watch Yourself and Shields Up anymore? Then my The Deep Steelwall tank-build for W/A is much less effective -.- *grrrr* Why are they always ruining my PvE fun? They nerfed the necro more again ffs. --Birchwooda Treehug 20:01, 15 June 2007 (CDT)
 * Yes, this means you can't stack those skills, you will only recieve the boost from one skill that gives more than +25 (I don't know how they're doing it though, first used counts? highest above +25?) This now means that the only reason you would bring more than one +armour skill is to cover the downtime when one is recharging. (You think you've got it bad? Kinetic armour now doesn't stack with ANYTHING) -Ezekiel 22:56, 15 June 2007 (CDT)
 * I'm guessing it's the highest currently active skill or effect, which is the case for other stacking caps. -- Gordon Ecker 23:00, 15 June 2007 (CDT)

IDS runs just got harder -_- -Kumdori 22:10, 15 June 2007 (CDT)
