Guild Wars 2

Ok so I know that Hidden Killer is bugged, as in it’s not triggering at all when you stealth.

I have noticed however, since the recent patch, that my Backstab is hitting for a pitiful amount now. It’s doing significantly less than the tootip says it should do and significantly less than my non-crit Backstabs did before the patch.

Has anyone else noticed this or is it just my imagination?

What are you fighting against? If its something with more than 2600 armour you’ll be doing less than the tooltip.

Well I know I should be doing less than the tooltip normally. I’ve been testing it on many different enemies and it seems to be consistently low.

I’ve been testing it on multiple enemies in areas where I am not down-leveled. Thief is level 63.

It could just be my imagination since Hidden Killer is bugged and I’m used to critting all the time. I just wanted to see if anyone else was experiencing this.

well I’ve not seen much difference but yeah loss of hidden killer is a big kick in the teeth if you built around both it and backstab

I just checked backstab damage with a video I did prior to the patch and redid the build from the video and damage is similar. Backstab damage is not nerfed luckily.

i dont notice a DMG drop in backstab either.

Hidden Killer wasn’t working for me either.
Switched out to Executioner – don’t miss it much anyway.

hidden killer is bugged..me and my 2 other guild mates who do spvp daily can confirm

cant’ imagine the bread and butter of stealth is bugged o God ANET fix it i beg u

Dont worry about anything, backstab is working as usual :-)

It is happening to me too.
