Looty Booty Barrel Blast and Psychedelic Goat review

Question

My review on the two new abilities is from my opinion, and not the opinion of other people.Looty Booty Barrel BlastYo ho ho, it's a barrel made of shiny treasure! Protect yourself from plants in style, and blast them away in a glittery explosion!This an alternative ability for the Pirate Class's Barrel Blast ability. It's basically a design swap of the standard Barrel Blast with no difference in how&nbsp;they both&nbsp;perform. My view on this? Personally, I would stick with&nbsp;the standard Barrel Blast, but if you want to vanquiah your enemies in style, then go for it.Psychedelic GoatPsychedelic Goats don't last quite as long as their normal counterparts, but they are much harder to control.This is an alternative ability for the Rose Class's Goatify ability. My view on this? Well,&nbsp;without actually experiencing&nbsp;what it's like to be&nbsp;a Psychedelic Goat, it can be very difficult to determine if&nbsp;the psychedelic&nbsp;effects slow it down. The duration of this&nbsp;ability is definitely shorter than Goatify. It might be an ability I could go for, but only on certain occasions.

It's just an impression or the looty booty barrel has a faster animation? The damage taken when inside and the radious of the explosion I don't know if it's the same... need more testing.

At least two of the Bling variants do slightly more damage (Bling Pylon Mech and Bling Big Bolt Blaster), so I wouldn't be surprised if the Looty Booty Barrel is also slightly better.

Can you provide data for the bolt blaster dealing higher damage? &nbsp;The only non-cosmetic difference I'm aware of is that the crosshairs on the reticle are different. &nbsp;The bling pylon mech indeed does deal 5 more damage than the regular one.

I suppose I (and you) may as well go in the sewers and provide actual data on the bling barrel rather than posting speculations. &nbsp;I will reply to&nbsp;this in a few minutes once I've done so.

Both barrels deal exactly 150 damage.

The debate about bling&nbsp;abilities being stronger than their standard counterparts; it somewhat makes me question how very different they really are.Bling&nbsp;abilities are supposed to be only one thing and one thing only: it should be&nbsp;nothing more than&nbsp;a change of colour or palette.In my opinion, I think every bling&nbsp;ability in GW2 should operate exactly like their standard variants. No exceptions.In the case of the Bling Pylon Mech and Bling BB Blaster, their damage output needs to be reduced to the same level as their standard variants. This should be done&nbsp;not by doing just a maintenance period, but through a version update to all platforms of GW2.
