Guild Wars 2

It seems pretty clear that ANet nerfed the loot from these invasions in the 9/17 patch. I’d be OK with that since I thought all the loot they previously dropped was virtually game breaking, but it seems to me that they should have said something about that in the patch notes.

Worse, though, and why I think the kitten thing is bugged, is that we also weren’t getting credit for stacks on kills. This afternoon Scarlet showed up in Lorner’s Pass on Devona’s Rest, and for at least two of the molten invasions there were only one or two players present on site with me the entire time. As a thief with exotics I can mow down lots of molten invaders with Dagger Storm since they cluster up around me like crazy and I’m traited to heal on attack. I killed dozens of the buggers while the red circles were still active but I didn’t get a single bloodlust stack on my daggers during either invasion. And … I didn’t get one single loot bag for all that time and effort either even though I stuck around until each invasion was closed.

I saw others complaining about the same thing in map chat, and later in the invasion I got a small bit of loot from other invasions, but it looks to me like ANet again broke something in this patch.
