Not one to complain, but you would at least think Anet would put the update on the site once they make it live. Would be a lot more helpful than having to guess what was fixed/nerfed/added/etc.

I can confirm Foul Feast's change.

Otherwise, I'm not finding anything else for Necromancer.

Silly to say that it recharges in half that time if Disease has been removed. Is 2 seconds that big of a difference?

I'm not insane for clicking refresh over and over to see if they add it, am I?
