If the developers only want to “shave” classes and not make kneejerk balance changes, why do we always have to wait 3-6 month between balance changes?

Wouldn’t it make much more sense make smaller “shaving” changes much more often, and therefore see much faster how (and if) the change does what it was supposed to do? As opposed to dropping a huge balancing patch every few month only?

I command you to be AWESOME.

This has been said a million times on the forums! Of course it’s logical so it doesn’t happen

I would love to hear what a developer has to say about this as I am so sick of hearing this brought up so often and it being ignored even though it makes complete sense.

Because Balance is not split, so there is an influence in decisions from PvE and WvW which suffer under similar conditions, and the talk about new players is just a bad excuse.
I instead say that a different enviroment in PvP keeps players more interested and proposes new challenges for new players to overcome.
So, yes, better shave more often and seperately from PvE and WvW.

Because – and they’ve mentioned this many, many times – it takes time to see how the little changes affect the game/meta.

There have been many times where a tiny change has gone in, a class is considered terrible for weeks/months, then all of a sudden a build is discovered and now the class is OP.

The waits are necessary, unfortunately.

From personal experiance it takes way more effort to shave if you save for a long time than shaveing often. It also helps having a sharp razor.

Take your time to learn proper keybinding, it’s worth the struggle

atleast it looks like

personally I would much rather have drastic volatile changes to pvp every month and have metas constantly changing than dealing with meta X for 5 months and eventually having to deal with meta Y for 5 months, etc etc etc
