Guild Wars 2

Not really sure if anybody has referenced this yet, but:
Mesmers get a massive 50% nerf to alacrity, along with a plethora of other nerfs,

And necros keep the ability to constantly apply a single condition that reduces movement by 66%, deals massive condition damage when traited, AND reduces skill cd by 66%?

I know that alacrity is a special ‘boon’ that can only be applied by mesmers, but why use that when many classes have availability to a condition that does so much more?

and I know that chill is a condition and it’s removable (and one can also argue that chill is so available to the necro class that it’s practically irremovable when you’re being focused), but somebody please tell me in what circumstance is this fair?

Forget it. so it is. If they wake up it is not useless to insist.
You have reason to chill, thinking one thing: if you chill it right for them to do the 66% thinks slow, think of all the effects and skill of necro / reaper that make chill and thinks the EFFECTS of the chrono and skill that make slow (and duration of slow) is the opposite of quickness is too strong! So we just put it’s never that helpful! Chill? chill let’s put it in buckets, 650 damage per second, stretch durability, rune to chill! Slow? TOO STRONG slower skill (only useful if interrupt play) a 30% crit.chance will be just fine …… as long as it is the mesmer okay that does not work

i’m assuming english isn’t your first language, are you trying to say that we should just give up and accept these cirucmstances?

Sorry, actually I do not speak much English and the translator does not want to help me now
