Guild Wars 2

If it is any kind of indication, I just geared my new 80 thief in full exotic armour, weps and accessories (had an ascended account bound ring and necklace already) with sigils and runes and bought just the traits I need for my build for around 90g in all. Bear in mind I did this the ultra lazy way as I had the spare gold so no doubt savings could be made (had enough karma for 3 or so zerker bits but used my WvW tokens for 2 bits instead).

All is vain, sadly.

I dont mind that they make more playstyles valid, but why does this have to be done by way of nerf to zerk? What about those who have spent tons on gearing up to zerk?
