Just started playing guild wars after about 9 month of not playing and I’ve noticed all my stats have been downgraded.

For example, my critical chance has been lowered to 26% but it was around 48% when I left the game?

I’m in a level 80 area to ensure my stats aren’t altered too

Magic find were replaced so if you had those items you can choose new stats for them.
Crit damage stat was replaced with ferocity and this generally results in lower crit %.
You’ll need to reassign your traits.
Some items, maybe celestial, have been rebalanced.
Runes and sigils have been rebalanced.
You may need to assign stats to a legendary weapon.

So yes your stats will have changed.

Extremely helpful. Thank you. Completely forgot about my traits.

LOL its nothing new. Anet always nerf thieves first. Its almost to the case where having more than one thief in a tpvp match is a bad idea.

I thought they nerfed Rangers first and then Thieves afterwards.

No, Rangers get a small buff then a big nerf. It’s a tradition from GW1
