Hi all. I’m an old player who used to play during the warrior bull rush hb meta (or whatever it was). I decided to return into this game after a very long break and i’d like to know what’s changed in pvp since i left the game, since i saw the recent patch notes and i didn’t understand a lot.
Thanks for the help. (Sorry for my english, it’s not my native language)

- Buf fixes & Balance changes in general.

There was an ele bunker meta, it was op, it got nerfed, then came the rangers with bm, got nerfed, then came the hambows and they have stayed for 8 months aproximately, along with condi supremacy.

Now with this patch you have to expect lot of power creep in the game.

Stronguest setups now are:
- Condi engi
- Bunker guardian
- Hambow/ other condi specs in war
- Decap engi
- Thieves do what they always did
- Rangers are as always good for 1v1 in spirits, but not as good as before.
- Ele´s are still bad for bunkering, but decent for burst.
- Necro´s you can see them power prec with lich form, or classic condi, both are viable, but best is condi now.
- Some DPS guardians specs still do good.

System changes?
No more glory.
PVP + PVE Skins mixed together.
Gold is the only currency.
Reward tracks for pvp.
New maps. Custom arenas.

etc..
