Guild Wars 2 puts fans against them with a new update: It is precipitated and inconsiderate

Guild Wars 2 launched a new update yesterday that brought an annual event. However, the developers made a small change in the gameplay, which infuriates many players.

What changed? The new patch brought back the annual festival of the four winds. This was accompanied by some balance changes in the classes and a general game change. And this last is a big problem for many players.

The game change is due to the fact that up to now the players have accumulated many benefits in preparation for a fight in order to go to battle so well prepared. This was done mainly in fractals and dungeons, but also in WVW or in front of the heads of the world.

The last change now eliminates the benefits every time the players:

  • Change a compilation template
  • Change a computer template
  • Change a trait or specialization
  • Exchange the weapon
  • Reaparete

Officially, this change was made to improve the stability of the game. However, many players refer to this change as the worst that sandnet has done.

The accumulation of benefits plays an important role in any content in which players want to take advantage of it to the fullest.

Why is this problem a problem? The accumulation of improvements before combat is generally considered an important mechanics in the game and has been made since its launch.

Players have accumulated advantages such as power or speed to go directly to the battle with a lot of damage. That distinguishes the normal players of the really good players.

Because stacking requires the correct use of skills at the appropriate time and, of course, everything should be done quickly, because the benefits usually expire quickly.

The change does not affect all the players, but those affected threaten to withdraw from the game.

What do the players criticize? Especially the discounts of the fractals and WVW complain of the change:

  • An important mechanics would be eliminated from the game.
  • Good players can no longer differentiate so clearly from the weakest.
  • The goal will change towards condition damage because it usually causes the game easier and does not require as much pre-accumulations as large power constructions.
  • Some jumps are no longer possible because it is difficult to accumulate invisibility.

Why Play Guild Wars 2 in 2021? Explaining The Appeal & Comparing to other games

Roul, member of the union of Snow Crow incursions and known speed runner, wrote players on the subject:

I find the change very precipitated and inconsiderate. Unfortunately, this is not the first time that ArenaNet ignores his actions, but now, in my opinion, he has gone too far. The change is negative for any kind of PVE and punishes you by striving more than others. (...). I admit that, as a runner of speed, the change affects me more, but it would be dishonest and meaningless to say that it would be good or nothing for that. The patch is a deterioration in all possible senses.

Nico de los Snow Crows is also amazed by change. Because if only a few players were affected by change, it would hardly affect the stability of the server. He also sees the duty of sandnet to provide new servers instead of making that change.

In Reddit it is assumed that the adjustment is mainly aimed at WVW, which starts the beta of the new alliance system this summer. A few hundred players like to meet there. But the reason why the change also arrives for PVE is incomprehensible to many.

How many players really affects? Meanwhile, there are also the first threads in Reddit that put in perspective the scope of change. For normal groups, in which players simply perform their benefits with their existing weapons and skills, nothing will change through the adjustment (through Reddit).

The normal player who only wants to explore the world and make a dungeon is not affected.

But especially the speed runners, the GVG fans or the great battles in WVW and, in general, the players who want to make the most of their class, the change means a reverse. Because new records, basically no matter what area of ​​the game, seem impossible at the beginning.

Because even in the jump puzzles, you have stacked one on different weapons.

  • 3 things that all other MMORPG of Guild Wars 2 copy and 3 mistakes to avoid
  • Guild Wars 2: How to grow gold quickly in 2021

What are the consequences? The change has already assured that some players have announced their retirement from Guild Wars 2. However, it should also be mentioned here that much frustration in the hardcore community has been extended. Since 2019, in general, there have only been some new fractals and group content and have been completely prescribed from the new raids. For these players, the last change is the nail that closes the coffin of the unconditional community. The new END OF DRAGONS expansion will not have a lined incursion either. However, attack missions must be equipped with greater difficulties.
