Guild Wars 2

I might be mistaken but didn’t some math gurus come up with a solution that said celestial should get a 10% stat boost instead of 6% to rival with the other armor sets?

The Celestial change is a nerf compared to its pre-patch version, but compared to post-patch berserker, the damage difference is smaller.

That’s only true if you look at damage (power/precision/crit). Add in defensive stats and condition damage, and it actually gets a buff.

Agreed.

Another ninja nerf on ele. wow anet….

Except that the nerf in damage ends up being noticeable, whereas those few stats gained will be unnoticeable. The 6% of a small quantity is an even smaller quantity, after all.
