Guild Wars 2

So in last weeks update they changed down scaling to make us closer to what the level of area we go to. With it there were some post’s talking about it so I went and did some study and play with most of my level 80’s so I could see how much different it was and I think explaining it another way is better so check out the video below to see for your self and please feel free to give feed back on it.

As you can see from the video down scaling changes your stats to be closer to that of a player in that area but not exact so you still feel like you have more power. Hope you enjoyed and see you in game.

After more testing I have figured out that a lvl 80 character is in fact given the stats equal to master work gear that gives pow, vit, Toughness, and perc and that is it. So I think that the down scaling is off but also it harms lvl 80’s because of the difference in stats. So yes Tequatl is going to be harder to kill not only is there more health to eat through but we also loose more stats then we had before.

We also loose stats that traits used to give us and we do not get that much from our gear from down scaling ether so in all we loose a lot more now with the new update.

Also have another video explaining this in more detail. Will be up latter today.

So I just finished this video and thought I would share it. It goes more into detail of the down scaling changes and some opinions I myself have on it.

Hope you all like it and see you ingame.

seems dumb to do this and double teqs hp at the same time

And if your build depends on stats like precision (for crit procs, for exmaple), you’re set back even further. The whole downscaling idea is a disaster.
