Guild Wars 2

Hey MO and the ArenaNet development team,

I would like to ask if you, the team, have come out with a proposed set date which we, the players, will see a blanace patch go live.

I am currently waiting to regear some of my characters’ World vs World builds in anticipation for the new patch and would like to have an idea on when this patch will go live; just so I do not spend my resources getting the gear, only for the buid to be changed by the upcoming balance patch.

I am certain I am not the only one wondering. If there is no proposed date yet, I will just go ahead with my changes, but I thought to ask.

Thanks in advance.

No word as of yet, as far as I’m aware. But we can try guess work. The previous living world update (a crack in the ice) was on November 21st and the balance patch that followed was on December 13th. This was more of a pvp patch though. The one before that was October 18th.

Seems like I answered this very question once already today.

Balance patches are released between PvP seasons. Breaks between seasons usually last 4 weeks, except for the last which was 10. The last season ended on February 6, so the patch could come as early as next week.

I, too, have been waiting on the balance patch before committing to new wvw builds. I am kind of treading water at the moment.
