ROFL @ ANet

tanithryudoWell I didn't get a chance to test out Darkroot last night cuz I was trying to finish up my Protector of Tyria title (2 more to go!). But this morning I glanced through the forums again and it looks like the thread's turned a 180.
Several new builds are up on wiki and youtube for farming UW on perma-SF that is only slightly less efficient than the pre-nerf build.
Meanwhile, QQing is rampant of the E/A raptor and A/E/A boss farms.
So now the elitists who were praising ANet for doing a good job nerfing the SF UW farm are cursing them for not knowing how to balance. And the PvE'ers who were using SF for other farms are now threatening to farm UW til ecto prices crash even further below how it was before the nerf in revenge for nerfing their other non-UW farms (and also because that's the only profitable farm left to their assassins).
Man, ANet shot themselves in the foot on that one. Wonder if they're going to slap another bandaid on the problem come next skill update or if they're going to do the sensible thing (HA!) and just make more comprehensive changes to UW.
EDIT: In other news, I wonder if there's actually a chance now they're going to "nerf" UB and what that "nerf" is going to look like.
Of course, there is always a small chance they will change SF to it's pre-buff form... Hoping that's not going to be the case or else there's gonna be another storm of QQing from the entire PvE side of the game.

The bright side is that this will destroy the trinity builds, kill all biases against other "imba" classes, and finally make farming even easier! How could this possibly go wrong?
Oh, right stupid elitists. But then they'll be out of the game anyway, and that's only a good thing.
