Guild Wars 2

Taken from the patch notes of October 22nd:

‘Ring of Earth: This skill now applies cripple.’

No, it doesn’t.

Ring of Earth DOES add cripple.

Just for the record: this is the earth attunement #2 skill from mainhand dagger, and not the fire #4 from offhand dagger.

Wow, my bad, I should have read more carefully before going ahead and making a thread about it, any mods feel free to close this.

Love it, tend to “hang out” in earth a bit more these days…

Lovely change. It went from a forgottable skill to another tool that’ll make sure your enemy is where you can hit them.

OP, I felt the same way. I was like getting kitten about this suppose cripple and it took me a while to realize it was actually ring of earth (did not know about this skill sadly).

LOL funny thread.

LOL funny thread.

I agree. When reading the patch notes, I instantly thought “ah cool, so earth skill #2 might be more useful now” and “that’s cool, more CC in the earth line, that’s great. If earthquake is on CD, at least I can slow them down,” etc.

How people mistook it for ring of fire I can’t fathom.

Reading similar names fast sometimes do that, especially when everyone uses and knows the fire one, while the earth one was forgottable.
