NoUnboundFreedom: The changes aren't perfect, but a lot of them are in the right direction. More importantly, I'm just glad to see that Anet is dedicating time and effort to significant and thoughtful changes like this

russpc9739: Lmao these warrior changes......

Howluffu: I was one of the few staff healing tempest. Now I rejoice!

sekory88: WHY THE FUCK they changed hundred blades in pve to do more dmg, but pvp/WvW not? this makes no sence.

ShadyTerror: As a new player that's planning to get into GW2, I don't understand jack shit but I'm happy for all y'all.

enternius: It might not end up being a huge game changer depending on the scaling but I think the Elementalist trait turning Burning into a power DoT instead of a condi one is one of the most exciting things for potential buildcraft in the future if they keep considering things like that.

bobchelios9961: Stop nerfing my specter :(

JenPlaysGG: Actually very fun balance patch. But missing some ranger nerfs tho.

Moonshainu: Almost ten years and the deadeye malice stacks are still on the target instead of the player. This games balance is a joke...

ivyli1416: oh my lazy eng open world build gone

Dreamonology: Watched the entire 2 hours while doing my work, in-depth af.

v8rockz: Bladesworn is still a mess in WVW PVP. Damn Anet..

scullyy: Relic 6 with mortar kit elite and 14 second cd bandage self?

hiroTaso7: WTF anet?Power Block: This trait no longer increases the cooldown of interrupted skills, then why call it power Block?

swanofnutella4734: My lazy Juggernaut build! Nuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

That's been my go-to open world auto-pilot build for years.

anthonyhayward9773: As long as they leave my renegade alone, been having so much fun on em in roam, spvp, and group content with kalla/shiro Shortbow/staff ninja stuff! Thanks for ya content always thanks from - Gandros [GyNo] Ren :D \x/

aperson7244: Finally moving alittle... ranger still gettings buffs, no nerfs in sight... I told ANET are full of ranger/pet loving queers and got a temp ban. lol I guess it's true, won't tell them this because I'll get a perma ban. Heh.

phoenixkaigaming: Lord buff weaver already I wanna be a heal weaver lol ugh give weaver party alacrity

kevlap017: I think you forgot that they changed blasting dark fields to give aoe dark aura. And revenants can now generate A LOT of dark auras. Plus with the thief changes, a thief and a revenant working together with their dark auras should be very strong.

jaosobno6493: They gave Specter Thief initiative back, that is nice. Now they just need to rework the traitline to have synergy for power builds and i will play it again (hopefully buff power dmg on Well of Tiers and Shadowfall in PvE) :)

toblilobli: Thanks for this very detailed analysis! And awesome FFXIV-music as always ;)

sasasale1157: quickdraw quickness

at least in theory that is not what logic dictates.

quickdraw activates quickness, not weapon swap, then they would just say weapon swap activates quickness.

of course it would be nice if it were right away, so that those long skills like longbow 5 or axe 5 are cast faster, but we'll see

X1OProductions: Think this will end up a nerf to zerg wvw specter. You used to be able to get great burst healing spamming shadow steps. Now that gets shifted into shroud skills and dark aura spam. But those are harder to use since your fields will get covered up. Might be more consistent in PvE though.

ushaani8912: Love the Chrono Cross music! <3
