Congrats A-net.
Made Crippling Dagger recharge in 5 seconds, results in now Assassin is able to constantly keep you crippled with that skill because with 11 Deadly Arts the Crippled condition lasts 12 seconds and the skill recharges in 5 and costs only 5 energy. Piece of cake to maintain it even on 2 targets.
Overpowered you could say? No way to run away from the Assa.
Oh and Major Rune 35 penalty? Why not just decrease all runes actually. Major -30, Super -55.
It could make fights much more entertaining.

Yeah cuz thats a theory. If they made less HP penalty, people could wear more sup runes and yet still be able to fight. Which makes up more interesting fights.

Also it says that the Existing runes are unaffected.
So if the update would also count for the sup that mean that you can still be a 55

yup..but there would be no NEW 55s coming out.
so 55s would become a luxury to have =P
i just think these health penalties for Sup runes should be slightly decreased so that people could live longer yet have more variety on primary/secondary attributes.

i am sure they are not.
as Anet only modified Majors...and on the site it talks only about Majors, i doubt they touched Supers. they would have pointed that one out as well.

My comment was about what hammerite said; that they should also decrease the health penalty for sup runes. Which they have not done, so you can still make a new 55 if you wanted to.
