But didn’t Celestial stats get nerfed too? I was wearing 1 Celestial accessory last night and log in today and have less health. Everything else is Zerk, and sure enough the Celestial accessory went from +57 all stats to +50 all stats.
I don’t know if the stats in my equipment (Soldier) went down, but I have less health too. Someone know if there’s something in the patch that can explain this? Or is it a hidden nerf?
Would only help speculators who horded stacks of these in anticipation of an update like this happening.
Anet can make the exotic runes you obtain from Mystic Forge using soulbound/accountbound runes soulbound/accounbound, in this way people throw them in the forge only to obtain something usefull for themself and not for gold.
Here’s something you can do: bind the rune to a piece of common or fine armor, which will make the armor account bound. Put it into your bank. Use a master or BL salvage kit to extract the rune into the inventory of your desire character.
Very interesting! But is stupid, and expensive, that we have to do this iter to make it “account bound”.
I bring up this old topic because I found assurd that Superior Sigils and Rune that you find, that are exotic items, are just like trash items. Don’t you think the same?
I took Vital Striking pre-patch out of choice. Now it seems Vital Striking is the best option out of necessity. I feel for pure support ele. This patch must be a bitter pill to swallow.
I’ve been running 0/30/0/20/20 with Vital Striking, Piercing Shards and scholar runes in pve since fresh air patch. I’m able to pull off 15k-19k fire grabs, pretty fun to play
Yeah, but this isn’t a supportive setup
I think that Water Magic line was created to be more supportive than for dps, but now it’s not so.
If you want a specific type of build, you’ll need to specialize into it. That’s the point of the entire trait system.
I want to specialize in Water, but now I don’t find a worthy adept trait! It’s very annoying that I waste a Major trait in this way, even if only an Adept one.
it’s situational though so i keep switching if i need to.
Yeah, this is the problem: the water adept traits now are too much situational and not predictable.
Piercing Shards —> Deal more damage only if in water and foes have vulnerability
Vital Striking --> Deal more damage only if you have 90% or more health
Soothing Wave —> Regen only when somone crit you
Arcane Abatement --> Area effect only when you take fall damage
Shard of Ice —> Never seen this usefull on its own
Cantrip Mastery --> Only usefull if you use Cantrips
So if you take Water Magic you have to use Cantrips or hope that the situations you meet will make the trait you have equipped usefull.
Only if you use Cantrips and I personally prefer Arcane Skills. Usually I have one Cantrip in my skill bar, but most of the time I don’t need that it recharges more often. Also we have 4 Cantrips, 5 Arcane, 5 Signet and 6 Glyphs. Pretty unbalanced distribution.
I’d like to know from you what water adept trait now is worth taking. I like to be supportive for the party, but they moved all the interesting traits to Master tier and now I don’t know what trait pick. I’m thinking also that peraphs it’s better to not invest in water at all.
One thing I would like to see in this forum is a Profile Image. With it will be simpler to follow discussions, because the talkers will be easily recognizable.
I think that the best thing would be let us choose one of our characters and use its portrait as our profile image, so that everyone can have a personal image, but the image will be controllable by your staff.
I think that all Story Mode Dungeons must be soloable, because this mode is more for the story, like the name said, than for dungeon and because you have to do all the Story Mode Dungeons to understand the story.
I don’t get it. The bottom “Play” is not working. And I can’t verify my Authentication. Clicking button “Send”, but it sas: “Your email address in not valid”. And I honestly have no idea what to do.
Today I opened my client and the update started. During the download I experience a connection problem, so I had to restart the client. After that the download restarted and all seems to work properly, but when I click “play” a serious error occurs.
