Guild Wars 2

The wiki mentions its existence, but there’s no page for it and thus no info. I’ve been struggling to find good runes for the build I want in PoF, and since I’ll be using Renegade anyway, I thought maybe it would be good.

Does anyone know what bonuses it gives?

Builds for PoF? It doesn’t come out until 9/22, so personally I wouldn’t bother making too many plans since things can change.

Okay that’s great but I didn’t ask for advice on when to start doing things. What I did want to know was what the rune does, if anyone knows about it yet. That way I can decide if I should wait for it or not.

We don’t know yet. It hasn’t been revealed.

It’s quite possible that we won’t know until PoF launch.
It’s also possible we’ll be able to see it this upcoming weekend.

Nobody knows exactly until the PoF is released. You can not make it until PoF is released and you can not decide if it is any good until PoF is released.

It’s funny that you say that, it’s almost as if you’ve never heard of datamining. People have found things out about the game for certain that way. So I thought maybe someone datamined info about the rune as well. There’s no reason to pretend like it’s not possible.

Isn’t this part of the forums supposed to be players helping players? I don’t feel very helped right now, I just feel talked down to. Even if you don’t know and don’t think it’s possible to know, you really don’t need to criticize my interest in having a build planned before PoF is out.

You also had a rather demanding tone, and turned rather condecending with your first reply.

Appologies if I appeared to be talking down to you in my reply, I strived for clear and to the point.

Regarding datamining and such, it’s generally not discussed much here on the official forums as it is technically “against the rules” even if Anet doesn’t seem to mind very much. Reddit is a lot more open for that.

Nobody is talking you down, the very first reply you got was spot on – we don’t know yet. Which you took as personal insult and started to complain about not getting helpful enough replies…. Do you think you arguing over quality of replies is going to get you better replies?
