Yes please. The silly throwing sword effect put me completely off using my bolt and shining blade skins on necro.

Posts like this remind me why the community shouldn't be in charge of balance.

I didn't think we'd be in a spot where I'd actually avoid using a legendary skin, but here we are.

I'm sorry, guys and gals. I couldn't help it. I wanted 1h sword on necro so badly. I even made Shining Blade pre-EoD thinking we'd get it. But now Anet has finally given it to us it is... Another ranged weapon. Please forgive me.

Only necros play wvw because its a dead mode.

Repairing walls and gates will no longer award event participation. This alleviates the behavior we've seen in farming Objective Scaling Rewards and "wasting" supply while defending. However, an additional side effect of this is that repairing alone will not progress achievements that require event participation, such as Keep Keeper, Nice View, or Stay Out. Nice change for smc supply wasters, but kinda sucks for those doomed tower defences.

I just want Power Harbinger to not be a meme.

My main gripe with Spite is that all 3 minors are only any good in solo play. I'd love if they deleted Death's Embrace (it's a trash minor that should have been deleted years ago), and put Awaken the Pain in its place. Then buff Signets of Suffering, so its in line with other signet traits, letting it grant the buffed signet bonus permanently instead of just in shroud.

Ahhh, I knew it looked familiar. Couldn't quite put my finger on it though.

It's almost like different people have different opinions on how things should be balanced. Much like Condi reaper with lich form, Mech is fun but in no way should it remain that strong.

I do love playing mech as well (it has become my main pve spec), but I realise how unhealthy the spec is for the game. Something that easy to play should never be that effective in high end content.

I'd be happy if they gutted mech, so it was only useful as an easy open world spec (like a minion master) but terrible in high end group content.

With regards to Signets of Suffering, I'd love if anet would delete Death's Embrace, put Awaken the Pain in its place and revert SoS so it could become our go-to mid tier trait (granting enhanced signet effects all the time, gaining signets in shroud and reducing recharge of signets whilst in shroud).

The year is 2023. Anet finally give in and revamp staff. It's rubbish like almost all their other necro skill revamps. People demand old staff back.

Oh that was meant from a pve perspective! Yeah Power Reaper/necro has had a decent history in the other modes.
