We are working on a fix for this and this update will come to Guild Wars 2 on December 13. We will also be offering a 40% discount on bag slots at that time (limit 2 per account). Thank you for your patience!

Hi, everyone, We're back with another balance preview, this time for the upcoming November 29 update. As always, the goal of previewing these changes is to gather feedback before the live release. We'll be following the conversation and making further adjustments as needed. Thanks, Cal "cmc" Cohen Skills and Balance Lead November 29 Balance Update Preview General Sigil of Absorption is a longtime outlier in World vs. World, largely due to a bug with its cooldown (or lack thereof) when used against players. We're still planning a larger pass on boon applications and boon removal in WvW for a future update, but Sigil of Absorption was something we wanted to address sooner rather than later. Sigil of Absorption: Fixed an issue that prevented this trait from having an internal cooldown when used against players. Elementalist Scepter is a weapon that sees some play in PvE, but it struggles to find a place in competitive modes as a lot of its ski... Read more

Bug Fixes: Fixed an issue with the Mystic Forge recipe involving the Aetherized Arsenite Greatsword. Fixed an issue that caused some text in the Battle For Lion's Arch to appear as numbers.
