oooh mesmer has an op skill, better fix it fast.

how come thieves don’t get their backstab builds fixed to not do OP damage!

Do we really need to explain that there is a difference between an obvious bug that lets you circumvent the CD if a skill by nearly 90% and a build/profession perceived as overpowered?

no need, i just wanted to complain about thieves.

I’m fine with them fixing this, as long as they fix our clones not having weapons, the izerker damage and comboer, our underwater spear, ileap to actually go up stairs, arcane thievery working etc. Oh hey theres a ton of bugs to fix! lets not just fix the obvious one first though. ._.

I hope it will be fixed soon so that we don’t get hit by nerf bat :P
More seriously, yeah this is a critical issue that needs to be hotfixed and should not wait for March update, same goes for other bugs (Zerker, Spear #1..)

On the other hand, perma-stealthing against perma-stealth thieves has proven to yield hilarious results. X)

Use the Thief forum!

They just patched this bug.

and they broke the skill completely, it doesn’t do blast finisher anymore.

i don’t understand, no1 tests **** at anet or what? almost every mesmer bug fix broked the skill further, wtf is this?

They didn’t “break it completely”. The only thing that doesn’t work anymore is the blast-finisher. Otherwise, the skill works perfectly fine.

Lol one day people are just not going to report bugs that benefit the class they main.

People prefer exploits over bugs that hinder us, so I think we need more effort in fixing weapon skills to the level of “working as intended” and testing so it won’t break on updates. or the future is gonna be full of weapon exploits.

As much as I’d love to see this happen to punish anet for their utter and complete inability to test any patches they provide, it would be obscenely difficult to have occur. Anet doesn’t find out about bugs like this one by players telling other players, and that will always happen

I found this lonely thread in the bugs forum with just a few replies and no anet response. It might be worth our time to help anet notice this issue.
