Guild Wars 2

They reveal Balance patch details yet?

Nope, they have not.

When they have, it is very likely that there will be threads about it here and on Reddit.

well it was said that it was going to be at the event today. so how much longer the event last?

About 4 more hours I believe.

Seems im not sleeping yet. :/

i should have gone to sleep what they did to ele does nothing really for the meta change – sort of buff/nerf for RoF (less on walking over, big buff on cast), 1/2s nerf on drakes, ashes slight nerf 3s, small vigor nerf (does nothing, ele has like 250% uptime on vigor, its definitly still ~100% vigor uptime after the nerf). It can still outsustain any dmg from 1-2 players, it still wins every 1v1. Hoping there is more to it – like addressing the real problem – sustain. Its the same ele as now, just a minimal decrease in dmg (even a buff for 1v1 since you get guaranteed strong burn on RoF)- it just takes couple secs more to kill, you are still guaranteed to win every fight.

meta^2 as strong as ever if there is not more to it.

Ice bow nerf is great though, 50% nerf is decent but i would have preferred more, or a rework so that its not so effective against large hitboxes. Should be enough to prevent 5 eles mandatory in raids.

Are the changes listed anywhere? I missed most of the stream.

Didn’t he not also mention something like “3 hits per target”? Or did I understand that wrong?

Edit: Read the dulfy post… Icebow is 3 targets per Hit. With the 50% dmg atleast it’s a lot less bursting boss mobs.
