It's official... 

The new update has ruined the gears and kegs in Sorrow's Furnace and im pretty sure it ruined the book trick in FoW too...

This makes me oh so sad :(

They made it so that the enemies attack everyone no matter who has the gear/keg/book/ural(i think)

Never exploited that nerf before...never will again either.

Updates

I suck at posting links, images, etc. (look at my Avatar and Sig.)

So if if sucks it's my fault.


Thanks Hybrid!

Updates

All you needed to do is get rid of the slash in the first url tag.

Its not that tragic of a loss it will just take a bit more time in FOW. The way my old guild would do it is just load a warrior with enchants and send him in while we hang way back then when he had aggro we would go in and stay at casting range and do our thing.

RE: It's official... 

yeah, it's kinda sad, since I did do Sorrows furnace runs quite a bit...

However, let's look at the new class, and why Arena-net altered the focus of aggros.

SEVERAL of the new ritualists skills involve the summoning of ashes and CARRYING them like a book, keg, or gear. - If they left the aggro foci the way they are, what would happen?

The ritualist would be the focus of all the monster attacks - and this would either quickly make the ritualist a class nobody plays, or effectively nerf skills before the game even begins.

Considering I don't think A-net wants to have a useless class even before the release of factions, this was a necessary, albeit unpleasant, fix.

I like the idea, they "nerfed" the book trick. Sure it was easy with it, but now you have to actually think. ^^ Go Arena Net!

RE: It's official... 

I highly doubt that IWAY needs to be nerfed. There are already too many counters for it:

A well organized ViM trapper team
Just about any organized "Balanced" team.
Spike teams, especially R-spike.

IWAY, unless you are very experienced with running the build, is good for farming 1-2 fame at a time. Consider that each run takes a minimum of 10-20 min, and that's assuming that you win 2 out of 3 matches. You're in for 30 minutes, roughly, and get what...3 fame?

Do that math - at that rate it will take you 1800 minutes for rank three. that's 30 hours, and that's assuming that you always win your first match - which won't happen, so effectively double that figure.

Also keep in mind that unless your running a guild group, it takes a while to set up the team,

RE: It's official... 

Very well said seeker i was gonna say something but i figured someone would do it. I so enjoy when theres nerfs and stuff its fun to read what everyone thinks of the new stuff i just sorta shrug it off no way for me to change what happened.

Just thought of something there was like mutiny over horse armour content for oblivion and then they lowered the price form 200 MS points to 150 for the next content i think.
