Potential changes and discussion

[Jupiter]

I have found one GW site I can still access for a bit and have been finding some interesting things about these potential changes they implemented this past weekend
From Gaile on a question Kaiser brought up:

Secondly, there is concern expressed in some threads that there may be an exploit that allows easy kill stealing. That is emphatically not accurate. Here’s how kill credit works: In order to be awarded a kill, you must have inflicted the majority of the damage to the player in the last 10 seconds of his/her life. This means that kill stealing is difficult to pull off since a player has to be sitting at low life for a long time before a different team could steal the kill.

Also details a change to Divert Hexes that was not posted on the website (reduced cast time to 1s).

And based on this thread I gather the skill changes are not permanent.

Post any thoughts of your own or interesting finds!

I don't know if anybody else read this far, but I was pretty impressed by the following:

Treasures have been reset. If you have opened them before, you can open them one more time.

from the Jan. 19 game update notes on GuildWiki

That treasure reset I can now confirm. Who knows if they can revert that?

Mmmmm...4s recharge on Lightning Hammer.
Now if only it had some massive room-rattling sound effect when it hit.
Must find spiking build with dual attune, hammer and some way to protect the enchantments and ourselves...*wanders away muttering boooooom*
Unfortunately that last part is true.

EDIT: Just found this Gaile post at my last GW fansite:

We will hold testing of Heroes' Ascent with an 8v8 party size configuration next weekend, starting on February 9th. This will be a limited test-nor more than a week in length-after which we will revert to the current 6v6.

And somehow I missed these reading last night...
Claim Resource: casting time reduced to 2 seconds, Energy cost reduced to 0.
Blinding Surge: increased Energy cost to 10.

Can someone please tell me how they ordered the spells!?
