Guild Wars 2

@Xorus in dragon bash patch notes wasn’t those with axe? oh that could be some of southsun notes… crap I don’t remember
ok I checked and Xorus have right and I messed up a patches.
but still until ANet tell otherwise (edit: in that place I mean that until ANet tell that was intended-just for sure because while reading it again after posting I noticed that this part could be misinterpreted) there are no reason to start accusing them for hidden nerfing anything
btw even just 1/2 sec evade can save Your live so that ability isn’t so “broken” to not have any usage (still I didn’t have this trait and last time I’ve used a dagger evade animation was too long to be 1/2 sec,
but last time I’ve used dagger was some roaming/test in WvW to check If i’d like to have axe+dagger as a weapon swap.)
anyway if i remeber well that should next patch nearby and then maybe we will see some more info from ANet.

Im 99% sure its not a “stealth” nerf. Even if they wanted it to be its too obvious for people to be fooled. What most likely happened (as it has happened before) is that they made the change on the test server while messing with things and then reverted it back to normal without the trait but didnt change it to the one with the trait. Basically this shows that they are at least thinking of nerfing the evade duration from 1.25 to .5 seconds.

its broken on both now though

Thanks for the report. I have fixed this on our development environment and it should be in the next patch ~10 days.

A dev on the ranger forums? Go home dev, you are drunk!

It’s ok. They know that by now, Rangers ignore this one.

Sweet, its not a nerf, they were actually screwing with the Thief Version it seems

That’s exactly what I was thinking…

haha yeah! they are on it “oh hey guys we forgot, using this skill animation locks you for 3 seconds!” all fixed now!

I sure wish we rangers got the dev that looks at thief stuff…sheesh

Thank you Jon Peters!

But not what was being fixed :O As in, is the skills function going to be updated to reflect the UI and therefore a nerf, or is the tooltip getting fixed?

Good point. Let’s assume the worst and say its a tooltip fix to make everything 1/2 second. That way if they actually do the change that would be advantageous to rangers, we can all breath a sigh of relief, be happy and then move on. If not, we can all say “I knew it, Kitten,” rage on the forums and then move on.
