This Tuesday, Guild Wars 2 will be getting a new update! I'm here to give you a preview on what to look forward to on April 14th.

Balance Patch!

Anet is making sweeping changes to every class in this patch in order to bring the average dps down from the sky high values that we've had ever since End of Dragons released. They plan to bring the numbers down around 10-15% for most DPS builds. See the full patch preview here.

Additionally, Anet is also nerfing the HP for most enemies from EoD onwards, according to a comment by Anet Richie.

The team over at Snowcrows has been hard at work crunching the numbers to figure out what classes are getting hit by the nerf hammer the hardest. Check out their Nerf Forecast over on the Snowcrows website!
