Guild Wars 2

Hi,
I have been thinking about this for a wile and would like to know what do you guys think about it, how will it work and how effective will it be IF we get it?

In my opinion, we shouldn’t get your expectations to high, IF thieves get this Boon Hate thing, it will be very VERY situational since only 3-4 professions are actually heavy buffers, not only that, i was made to believe that boon hate will be on traits and not on actual abilities meaning you would have to spec for it even though it will only be really effective versus there 3-4 professions.

Also they way thief traits are all scrambled with venom traits in Deadly Arts (Power Trait line) boost dmg on Trickery (condition trait line and so on…) these Boon hate thing will probably end up in Shadow Arts or Acrobatics…

About Boon Hate itself, all we know is that it will increase dmg dealt on targets per active boon. If it will be a dmg percentage, power increase of an extra dmg tick based on the attackers attack power… I don’t know it could be any of the above but i do not expect it to be to strong.

At least is what I’m expecting it to be.

I would bet that it will be in CS replacing Critical Haste. It would proc on critical hits then removes a boon on target with 5 seconds cooldown.

That is not boon hate its boon removal i believe. boon hate benefits from you opponent’s boons if you remove them you will deal less dmg i guess…

I can see Venoms playing a part in it. Quick Venoms or Leeching Venoms getting a boon removal/steal element, perhaps.

I rip what I hate.

So yeah.
