Guild Wars 2

I tired of changes to champions or boss in dungeons, and the changes not being on the patch notes. Maybe the changes to AC this week are a bug but I doubt. So now on the Spiders Queen we have to fight her in the open and dodge the AoE effect, can no longer stack between the wall and stairs. This is an okay, change but it would be been nice to know about it, and stacking for buffs and heals is part of the way the game is made. If you don’t want stacking then you have to change how the healing and buffing in the game works too. Also in AC on Path two the Gaveling Champion on the spike trap fight, now takes no damage from the spikes. This change was stupid, if you didn’t like how this fight worked Arena Net this you need to remove it or completely redo it. Now this fight feels broken.

I would of loved to known about any of these changes in the patch notes, but no where in the patch notes was anything about these changes stated.

“Dungeons
The Ruined City of Arah (Explorable)

Path 1 (Jotun): Fixed a bug that prevented some of the waypoints from appearing after the correct event."

This has been done before, one example was in HotW with the Troll Champion fight on path one, where stacking was made pointless again by giving the Troll fear spam and a AoE stomp effect. That change also was never in any patch notes. I do understand that Arena Net might want to make the dungeons a bit more difficult, but please let of know about these changes in the patch notes. Please, also understand that with the way healing, buffing, and condition removal work in the game classes need to stack somewhat, so trying to remove all stacking from the dungeons like you seem to be, breaks how you designed those abilities to work, and doesn’t fix anything.

I doubt that any of these changes are bugs, but if they are fix them please, and please start putting the changes in the patch notes.

Hate to break it to you, but….

At best, this post will be ignored. We don’t get red posts in the dungeon subforum.

At worst, well…I posted something almost exactly like this when they broke Alphard a few months back. I earned an infraction for daring to ask if the devs made a mistake.

I hope you fair better.

but hey, that was reverted a few months later, so maybe it actually was a bug!

Not even ANet knows if those changes are intended or a bug. Especially since most of these changes don’t change anything.

It was nice to see that fix go in, but I still don’t see why it would have been so hard for them to just say “Oops, that was a mistake. It might take a little while to have fixed, but we will revert the change.”

It would make a much better impression than the “Shut up, don’t ask questions, keep it up and you’ll get banned” response that I got.

I asked in the most polite, friendly, understand way possible, too. Believe it or not, I wasn’t always a sarcastic pessimist on these forums. Come to think of it, that was the day that I changed my attitude on these forums. Haven’t bought gems since then either…If that’s how they want to treat their customers, I’ll be happy to just use their product for free.

Just as with AC troll in HotW these changes didn’t change anything. Just made it very slightly more interesting. At least if you pug.

Shame cc is so useless in PvE. No way you can stop her poison now.

I like hotw troll. He’s a cool guy. Punishing them low-evade/low endurance regen classes.

Now that I think about it, I shall ask spoj to solo it on his necro.
