Guild Wars 2

Remember the good ’old days?

can you not still do that? tbh i’ve been using D/F for a while :P

No, you can’t. It’s affected a lot more by gravity now.

Yeah one would think lighting wouldnt be affected by gravity at all….

Yup this is 1 of the 7 nerfs for the RTL. I missing old beta RTL and Mistform.

It’s more like Ride The Dust now.

& yet they still let:
Engies rocket boot across gaps.
Rangers leap across gaps.
Warriors charge (or wtk that spell is called) across gaps.
Double standards in this game….

LH 2 jumps across gaps
I think shield bash does that too btw

RTL used to be hilariously OP, so I really don’t mind. A 1500 range super dash is honestly kinda nuts. Sure it was fun, but it was pretty broken.

Yeah, except it isn’t 1500 range anymore, and was never supposed to be. But instead of fixing that, they nerfed it six times, and then fixed the range bug. Seriously? Does the entire ANet staff suffer from severe dyslexia? It took them seven months to figure out that 2 was actually a 5? And can they seriously not see the technical and ethical problem with balancing something around their own mechanical failure and then fixing that failure without re-balancing it?

I agree 100%.

They nerfed RTL to 60% of the original distance. 900 vs 1500

They nerfed CD to 40sec( 20sec, yes, but how often do u want to find a grey to rtl into plus its super short range means many targets are missed)

They nerfed the gravitational pull of RTL to basically mimic someone dropping stone balls down a cliff.

Nerfing RTL was like the biggest cool factor playing a dnd ele. Now warriors are impossible to catch.

To be honest I don’t see why all movement skills of all classes don’t go on double cd if not hitting a target, just like RTL.

Because rtl is the coolest, the flashiest, the classiest, and that comes with a price.

Dont forget the sound FX it creates. Folks get anxious when the hear it

It was like that in original GW. Usually warriors would Q.Q (often about mesmers) and then 9/10 anet changed what was being moaned about.

But to the point yes I miss old rtl but perhaps old mist form more. I still cannot understand why an Ele in mist form is hit by spike traps (like in AC) if we are invulnerable for the time.
