Guild Wars 2

would there be one?

i know its definitely patch day, since ranked arena, or the seasonal leagues are starting on 1st december 2015.

but would there be a balance patch as well?

what do you all think?

I bet on tool tip fixes.

Maybe they ll nerf warriors too.

Nerf for Druid for sure, since Druids are nerfed even with PvE patches. Obviously, those nurfs would be called “fixes”.

tool tip fixes would be nice. XD

hmmm aw kitten no! warriors need buffs!

hmmm i dun mind some druid nerfs.
i dun enjoy fighting druids that cannot die.

for some reason i can’t seem to make my druid cannot die.
i’m doing it wrong probably.

I know right ? Everyone knows, but Anet ? I don’t think so.

Well I don’t know if there will be one
But I could see Anet actually nerfing Warrior and Thief, also buffing DH and Revenants.
DH really need larger traps, and Revenants would benefit with more torment… maybe a way of corrupting boons since it does the condi job so well…

Waiting for the Thief nerfs. And the daredevil nerfs. .-. They took my ankle shots range. I’m sad still.

No there won’t be one. Because league starts on Dec 1st, and they already said balance patches will only happen 2 weeks before a league starts. So next balance patch: around spring 2016.

Arcade.8901:

Probably true. Remember everyone, there is no a team of people who do nothing but balance. Without those tool tip adjustments, it seems like they are doing no work.

Hopefully Revenant hammer and guardian traps nerfs.
That seems to be the most unbalanced stuff atm.

And Revenant Taunt trait. Check it out, I made a Shiro auto attack build based on it. Very successful. o.O

This is it, this is the patch that will either make me come back or turn around forever, don’t screw it up ANet.

And since I don’t see them pulling out a competent balance team out of their kitten, I better start packing up.

we found out ppl still use thieves as bank characters, that can’t be allowed so we decided to put all thief mobility spells including dodges on 50 sec CD

This is a make or break patch for a lot of players on Thief and Warrior. Sorry to say, but margin of error is fairly small at this point.

I doubt we get large balance patch. At best some tooltip fix.

Wow logic.

I hope everything gets nerfed! Say no to the powercreep Anet! Be brave!

Everything nerfed= same position. Thief and Warrior are garbage, Rev is still god, everything else is mediocre…

don’t expect anything tbh, it’s anet what we talking about.

The lack of communication about this topic from devs is making me worried.

I am not going to play leagues if there is no balance patch, even if I can just play scrapper in them.

It’s better to not post at all and let people merely assume you’re a hot join tier player than post and remove all doubt.

nope. i haven’t seen this kind of blatant disrespect towards customers in ages and i doubt that company policy is going to change.

i’m mostly talking about his rev hammer point, but I guess I spotted another hot join player getting farmed by traps

february 2017 zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

I don’t think there will be. Hopefully I am wrong.
I expect the next balance patch to be late March / early April 2016.

Honestly, even if there is one, I would not be getting your hopes up on the changes it delivers.

I dont think that, on the same day leagues open up, the balance team would be troll enough to say “LOL BALANCECHANGE”.

But that’s just me

You realize they can’t nerf anything because otherwise most groups won’t be able to complete raids?

I wouldn’t hold my breath.

@Cynz and Azure- they will nerf. $5 Thief nerfs, calling it now. That or no patch at all tomorrow?

Season’s in progress, so no balance patches any time soon. Plus they don’t really care about PvP balance, it’s a minor issue to them.

Arcade.8901:

Hell yeah, survivability nerf and unnecessary rifle buffs!

Balance patch is really needed…The whole PvP balance atm is about extremes making it really boring and dull. Let me explain this:

Before HoT there were balanced builds needed. You needed to add in vitality, toughness, survivability things in order to function well. take Soldiers Engi for example. However if you went marauders, you had a bigger risk.

Right now everything is revolving around extremes. People getting the highest damage out easily, highest condi dmg or best tank/healing. And why? Simply because it became too easy.

Rev is unbalanced as hell. Jalis and Ventari are utterly useless, while Shiro being amazing together with Glint. The heal skill is completely crazy on shiro adding so much damage, huge mobility and a good stunbreak. I feel only Malyx is balanced since it does have certain risk to it.
Dragonhunter can just push out huge DPS while forcing the enemy away from it’s traps. Too less risk!
Even as a main engineer I am kind of sickened by the scrapper. Giving him so much passive defense making it the easiest bruiser to play.

I feel like only Daredevil, and maybe chrono are in a good place balancewise (Berserker is way below it, don’t worry warrior buds, I don’t call you OP).

Anyway thats just my perspective :<

The V.8759:

maybe chrono are in a good place balancewise (

Chrono bunkering in berserker is far from balanced.

Burtnik.5218:

It’s balanced compared to the rest of the powercreep. It’s just annoying as hell. I would like to see the block on the shield go down to 2s, to give it a more situational use. Naturally, I would like a lot of other things toned down in pretty much every other profession (except warrior, and any thief nerf should be compensated with huge buffs elsewhere). Also, F5 should be 1 second baseline, then 1s per illusion, so that it costs more.

So its time for predictions: tomorrow is judgement day.

I have two: No patch OR Thief nerfs coupled with Revenant buffs.

Caed and Toker making sure we never get buffs

Again

Those two are so darn good, they DESERVE buffs. The rest of us ~need~ them. But ye. Nerfs. Always, always, always.

I duel caed evey now and then. his DD staff play is so gnarly man. unreal.

Hey, if they buff rifle we may actually see anti-zerk Gun Flame builds become a thing.

Must reduce the noise from skills. That has to be the top priority…right??

Considering all the bullkitten i read here it’s no wonders the game is unbalanced as kittens.
People have no idea what they are talking about.

You nailed it

Complaining for the sake of complaining, happens in every single game with PvP. People can’t and will never accept the fact that better players than them exist.

Yea right even tho i do agree that some classes are a little bit too OP and some classes need a little nerf but otherwise it’s pretty much balanced at the moment.
I’m a little bit nervous about this balance patch i’m currently downloading but wait & see.

“balance” patch
they fixed some skilldiscription

warrior didn’t even get anything – well at least no rampage nerf
