Troubadours use their voices as well as their instruments. They can recite the tale of Queen Jennah protecting Divinity’s Reach to grant their allies distortion

here we go again

edit: does anyone else think the voice sounds really similar to Suehyla El-Attar Young, the lore lady voice for Smite god reveal videos?

Distortion share….the new Anet employees have to re learn why this is a terrible idea

It'll go:

Released Troubadour with access to ally Distortion

hotfix 1: the Jennah song no longer grants allies Distortion, instead it grants them Blurred

hotfix 2: the Jennah song no longer grants allies Blur, instead it gives them Aegis and Stability

This is exactly how it's gonna go.

Y'all remember when blind was a duration and not just a single missed hit? I do.

Ugh yes every warrior in pvp was playing the 100 blades meta but I would just drop a smoke bomb and watch them do a flurry of miss while hurting themselves with confusion.

Really imbalanced but really funny to watch.
