So, less than a month until HoT
DH is in the good spot, first announced – last place by usability and worst elite spec. Seems balanced.
To be fair, why waste time polishing trash? When DH is ignored you get lovely stuff like the shield finally getting decent buffs.
To be fair, very few changes had actually be made to the other elite specs’ utility skills; it’s mostly a tweaking of some parameters. And traps are conceptually niche, no amount of fixing could possibly ever change that; I rather have Anet focus their efforts on fixing the DH trait lines and longbow, traps is a secondary priority.
No worries, scrapper can not use its utilities outside pve
Engie got balanced to Spirit weapon QQ lvl to.
At least with DH we can blob 60DH and spam all traps or on lords room.

With less than a month to go, I very much doubt anyone at Anet is doing anything that might risk breaking anything else… Which big changes tend to do.
More than likely they’re rushing to get all the PvE bugs addressed before the big day. Knowing all the uninformed masses coming to pewpew the new world content will care far more about a broken quest chain than if their spec sucks in PvP

…. and we still have no word on trap updates or what direction they are going to take. None of the classes are 100% ready for launch (except maybe Reaper and Chrono) but I feel after BWE3, all of them will be… except DH. Of course there will still be tweaks and touch ups to all of the specs and classes after launch but I feel like we are being so left in the dark with this.
Is the DH feedback THAT negative that DH has just been pushed aside? Reading that theres basically no changes to them for BWE3 means we really have nothing to talk about. Sorry for rant. continue your day
Maybe in 2 years we gonna get huge help:
Cd reduction ???? ROTFL
They seem to be pretty set in their ways on DH. Best you can do is just kick anyone from your dungeon/raid group that’s foolish enough to try to run it with the bow knockback trait in PvE, and hope that enough QQ will result that Anet will realize how undesirable it is.

We have no word? We have LOTS of word … go read the BWE3 stickied thread. We know we are getting trap changes and will have the opportunity to test them this weekend in BWE3. If you feel you’ve been left in the dark, just take one step out into the light. Anet HAS given us the information you think they haven’t.
Edit: Oh, nevermind … seems you’ve been posting in that thread where the ‘not-given’ information on trap updates was actually given to us by Anet in the first post. I’m going to assume you’ve missed it. I recommend you read it.

Those “changes” are laughable. They do nothing to address any of the problems Traps have.
I am with Azure, no word on fixing Traps in months. Last Beta weekend and they are still 100% useless.
Our only hope is if they have been secretly working on a revamp in the background, hopefully we will get some news on that after this beta.

I like longbow, but traits and traps are trash right now. It needs serious revamp or we need Irenio to do it instead of that Karl dude. His 3 elite specs are so bad. (dd, tempest and DH).

Maybe, but that’s not the OP’s point … he’s complaining we haven’t any updates on what’s happening with traps … when we do … and he KNOWS we do because he’s posting in the thread that gives those updates. Whether anyone thinks those are good updates or not isn’t relevant to if we were giving the information he claims we didn’t get.

Months… Presented in Detail August 10th … Months … It hasnt even eben months since reveal.
This is exactly the reason for this exponential level of QQ. Exaggurations. DH will be good.
