Well we definately have had it rough here. We didn´t only have it bad from the start, it´s been getting worse and worse by the minute.
We are so underpowered now, that we are estimately 42cm below the powerpovertyline, compared to only 30 cm below when gw2 launched, that´s roughly 40% increase…or decrease…numbers!
I´ve also concluded that with the bug infestations (Lesser tyrian profession scarabs i assume, deducing from the reported levels uf unplayability they cause) we seem to suffer we´re doomed to wither away and die a lonely and gruesome death.
Well now allow me to tell you about my hobbies.
I like lurking other profession forums, it helps me to maintain a healthy and varied diet of qq, whine and sweet tears of fahrun pohsters.
And it has allowed me to observe the following.
Rangers have it worse than us on the numbers part, the recent nerf(that might or might not be of intended severity) of shortbow reportedly seems to have downgraded their efficiency even as much as 110%…how that is possible i don´t know but my sources are certain of this. There´s a great fear that not only does this lower them below the famed powerpovertyline, but that it does it so much that the results might be even as much as 50cm below.
They too seem to suffer from minor bug infestation, but reports suggest it´s only case of Ascalonian nerf lice.
Necromancers seemingly have it steadily above the powerpovertyline, but the constant fear of falling below it seems to suggest that they too infact are headed, or infact already are below it, reports suggest values between 10cm under and above.
What is certain though, is that they seem to have attracted many different bugs, again i can only assume, but reports indicate both lesser tyrian profession scarabs and ascalonian nerf lice, but i fear there might also be some dreaded greater tyrian power locusts in the mix.
Mesmers have it nearly as bad as us though, they are reportedly already atleast 25cm below the powerpovertyline, and quickly falling. This has caused mass panic and confusion, but one thing is clear to them all, only way is down and nothing can save them.
Similiar to us, they too do have a infestation of lesser tyrian profession scarabs, but maybe to a slightly lesser extent.
Guardians are like mesmert midst a great chaos, though they are well above powerpovertyline, the recent hit from nerf bat and following considerable drop in power has shook their beliefs, and fear is slowly taking over. Changes to their core being, greatsword skills, have left many wondering about future, powerless and unwilling to act lest there be repercussions. Also the omnious message left after the nerf bat beating, is concluded to be nothing else but the sign of apocalypse and the end of the world.
Bugs are no stranger to them either, with good supply of radiant valor roaches, they´ve begun developing cuisine based on them.
Engineers aren´t too happy either. Though they´ve shown some promise and growth of power, there´s evidence that they´re in the same limbo of powerlevel as necromancers, never certain which way it is today. They crave for more, but still it seems they remain forever doomed to remain under the powerpovertyline, as well as slightly above it.
Thiefs had recently a major crisis, not unlike what rangers faced. Their if not the most, atleast one of the most important skills to them got nerf bat treatment. This left many weeping and shuddering, but it seems that in the end it´s not as bad as what happened to rangers. Now that they´ve begun recovering, it seems that even if the nerf took them near the powerpovertyline, they still remain fair bit above it…but for how long. Recent developements seem to suggest that this was only the beginning.
Thiefs also seem to have caught rather nasty case of southern leet worms,but luckily no other bug problems.
So my dear fellow creatures, do not despair overly much (little bit is fine). We are not only ones that have it bad, indeed, it seems that we all got the short end of the stick, and are on our way to anguishing death, or atleast quickly heading to that directions, so let us all weep together, like some of us already do, as there´s tears of many different professions on each of the profession forums.
Warriors…yeah, they´re holed up in their perfect wonderland of happines and sunshine, but some times get jumpy about the few ladybugs scurrying around.
….Maybe we could go and troll them so that i could taste warrior flavored tears for a change?
TL:DR Nothing important, just pointless stuff for kitten and giggles.
