hi, just found thru factions n chat they nerfed the veno swim speed, b:sad not just nerfed it , its just not available anymore b:shocked and those that had swim already were not going to get sp refunded b:angry , what i cant understand is why take out the skill completely, what did it to others, were others so upset because they didnt have it, or what was the reason, i haven't had time to look for patch notes and read up,? b:sad which brings up another question, those with swim speed already , is the effect just normal now or what is it ? i hate to say this, but i guess a few winers, "nerf the veno" club won out ....

    Ugh, I noticed the skill says "has no effect", but it still works as it used to... She clearly swims faster than other chars, so I dont know

    It works how it used to? Did you already have the skill before it got removed?

    If they wanted to remove it, why didn't they jus' remove it altogether? It's still there, and can still be learned, jus' no description anymore. If I get it now, will I actually get the mastery, or jus' waste my sp?

    Ehhh, I seriously doubt the "nerf the venos" whiners on this server had anything to do with this change(if indeed anything even has changed), if anything we're feeling the effects of changes that have occured in the Chinese or Malaysian versions that managed to trickle down over here.

    Possibly Water based PvP has become popular in those versions, giving Barbs and Venos a clear advantage.

    Just remember, the PWI staff are not coders.... we get whatever the Chinese devs send us(whether we like it or not)

    I have the Swimming Mastery skill and it still gives me 50% faster swimming speed as far as I can tell.

    But maybe this nerf is just for Venomancers?

    The Barbarian swimming mastery still works. Venomancer swimming mastery does not however.

    There doesn't really need to be a Spirit refund. It was like what, 200? And to the OP, the skill was long broken before the Nerf the Venos topic appeared.

    I think it still works, barbs are still the fastest underwater.

    My venomancer still swims faster than elves and humans. Don't think it's broken at all, just the description o.O
