Guild Wars 2

True shot is blockable calm the heck down guys all that happened was a typo. It was meant for deflecting shot. Deflecting shot was already unlockable literally all they did was change the tooltip. No nerfs or buffs. Just took the light effects away from traps. The typo was confirmed by Karl in the guardian forum if you want to check it out. Please do research before you cry, just something to remember.

yes relax, it was just a Freudian slip, ahem!

So the unblockable part was intended with heavy light proccing o.e….? Dear lord.

Deflecting shot is Longbow #3. It has been unblockable since HoT release, but simply wasn’t mentioned on the tool-tip so the devs fixed it!

@SpookyPoo: Yeah, and you know what I was thinking? This might be me reading too much in between the lines, but maybe they have some sort of change planned for trueshot, and really wanted to announce it, so they freudian-slipped and said true-shot instead of deflecting shot.

Any change coming to true-shot can’t possibly be good, it will be either neutral, or a nerf. DH haters rejoice :p

And they thought that keeping it that way was a GOOD thing?

I literally cannot.

Aww deflecting shot isn’t that bad! It’s a solid skill, nothing op though. The balance team has bigger fish to fry than this.

Having it unblockable isn’t the issue. Its heavy light proccing with it. The DH burns all of your dodges with true shot and now you only have invuln, teleports, or stability prior to getting CCed being the only thing to save you from the traps +it delivers a blind to go along with it.

How is this even right? Its not even that difficult to fix, just remove the unblockable function. I suppose this is necessary so that DHs can finally dominate other DHs, revenants and chronos.

Shame for everyone else, I suppose. One more defensive tool down the drain.

There were no actual balance changes in this patch, only tooltip and visual fixes.

The balance patch will probably come shortly before proleague starts guys, no need to go in a panic (yet).
