Investing money, but no balance patches...
Y know esport prize goes to marketing budget? Nothing to do with the balance budget y know?

Although they still suck at balancing, I will give them credit for the frequency of their updates. An improvement from pre HoT days
Well even if we are unhappy with balance, having this focus and highlight on esport is good as it will always “force” focus and highlight on balancing/other aspects of the pvp game. If they truly are serious about esport, sooner or later this whole balanceshenanigans will catch up to them, even soloq. If the general pvp playerbase isnt happy then interest will falter, time will tell, but all one can do is to keep adding constructive feedback.

If you’re unhappy don’t spend 10 bucks a month. I’ve also spent a lot on this game and sometimes I don’t agree with such balance changes, but cannot complain about money I decided to spend on my own.

They won’t balance the new elites seriously until the data tells them they can’ sell any more expansions just based on new op elites. I thought we were going to see a serious balance patch before December 1 but I am starting to think they are going to mostly turn a blind eye on op expansion stuff until they make the maximum $$$$ possible.
As long as you keep donating 10 bucks a month, they couldn’t care less about how unhappy you are, because it obviously hasn’t affected your tendency to give them money.

Rofl. Ty CEO of Anet that decides the allocations.
Money is money. There is no marketing without a large Esports fan-base. There is no large Esports fanbase without a solidly balanced game. No balance = no esports.
no sorry that money is going to the $400,000 prize for E-SPORTS! E-SPORTS! E-SPORTS!
Obviously it is more important to give money to the two competitive teams than it is to make a playable experience for the mass playerbase.
Bristleback can’t hit anything? Let’s fix the HP bug instead.
Don’t listen to the whiners. Balance parch coming before ranked season.
The announcement below (from Nov. 2) could be interpreted to mean that ANet is indeed planning on putting out a balance patch before Dec. 1. This announcement post-dates the quick balance patches (nerf to blighters boon, DH traps, etc.) that occurred in late October, but predates the “quick and dirty” Nov. 4 buff to berzerker. Consequently, I expect that ANet is in the works of a balance patch between now (Nov. 12) and Dec. 1.
“On December 1, once we’ve finalized all the teams that qualify for the ESL Guild Wars 2 Pro League and we have a chance to let balance settle from the launch of our expansion, we’ll activate our inaugural in-game Player vs. Player league season!”
