Guild Wars 2

Thief

• Vigorous Recovery
  • Fixed a bug that prevented this skill from functioning when used with human and sylvari racial healing skills.
• Exploding Venom Sac (Stolen Skill)
  • Fixed a bug that prevented this skill from showing the combo field ring for allies.

Man, thank god that (recovery) bug got fixed, it was long waited for and very complained about. Now I can go back on my thief and dominate with my human healing spell.

Ahahahahaha I laughed more than I should have

hahahaha it is funny . . . because it makes me cry.

yeah that was me…

I kind of hope this can be written off as
“We saw something glaring, shiningly, and obviously bugged that a 1 line change without any effort would make it go away. We spent roughly 5-20 seconds applying the fix.”
And not
“We’ve been investigating this issue for 2 years now, gladly today was the day we fixed it. We can now move on to figuring out a cure for ca_nce r. O wait, there’s another bug here we just noticed related to an arbitrary skill/trait no one uses – kitten , got to put the search for the cure on hold.”

Can it really be worst than this?

‘I swung a nerf bat. I swung a nerf bat again. Hey! I swung it again.’ That’s great.

That’s true… actually if anything this was a good patch. We weren’t hit with the nerf bat. Rejoice! We don’t always get hit.
Actually…
:/ I think they just forgot to be honest.

What if they nerfed the nerf bat they specifically nerf thieves with? I mean with that much whacking you’de expect some stains and that would be unsanitary to use it on others.

Pretty sure this is what they use, and the stains just add onto it’s looks.

How did they even find those bugs???? Yet they miss all the obvious ones.

we’ve been trolled…. -_-

This thread is a good example of one reason why ANet makes ninja changes.

This is how I feel about every patch…

lols. They wasted all their Initiatives like noobs…now they backstab us with nerfs from stealth.

Yeah, I know I’m supposed to either:
Not say anything.
Be thankful that they made a bug fix.

The thing that kind of throws me off is this:
If they have resources to spare on bug fixes, why not address the bugs that are the most complained about?

Yeah, this change they could have made a ninja change and gotten away with it, more than likely. The only way to justify spending time on this bug fix is that it was randomly spotted and was extremely easy to fix.

The need to make stealth changes means you’re doing (or have done) something wrong.

Deep down, I think they fired the original designers of thief long ago and have been slowly trying to remove thief from the game because they don’t like it. That or they got a bet going around on who can disappoint thieves the most O.o

Have to say the changes they’ve done to thief seem like they have 0 clue on where they want thief to be. If only there could be some special guidance from the community… rhymes with CDI… oops ><

Well to be honest, I think they have some weird direction that they want to take the thief in… I always got the sense that it was a venom sharing groupie or a trapper. Simply because that’s what they’re actively buffing/modifying from patch to patch.

-pouts- I’m staying as the hated-stealth-happy thief. You can’t make me change.

There’s that hint again…

“Players in stealth can no longer cause glass panels to disappear – so players can’t abuse pulls to causing others to fall through holes”

LOL I get pulled by mesmers and engies worse than thieves…. :\
