Guild Wars 2

Based on the topic made in the ele forum, I’d like to give this a bit more exposure.

Please take a look at this trait. First of all it’s based on crits while being in the arcana trait line, doesn’t make much sense, second, it has a 10% proc rate which is incredibly low.

Then, let’s look at the effects:

- Fire, 1s burning (Already got plenty of ways to apply burning, 1 second won’t do anything)
- Water, 1 stack of vulnerability for 10s (With this proc rate also near useless)
- Weakness, pretty decent. (If it would proc)
- Earth, decent. (If it would proc)

The idea isn’t too bad but atm it might aswell do nothing as it almost never procs. So my suggestion:
Change to on hit instead of crit, buff % to 33. Change burning to 3s, vulnerability to 5 stacks, weakness to 3s, 2 stacks of bleeding to 10s. Along with a 5-10s icd, per enemy!

Will give this minor trait a nice boost and will give eles a little more pressure without making it OP. Let me know what you think.

It’s actually a pretty decent 25 point minor if you take fresh air and scepter, but that’s pretty much the only time.

ICDs and high proc chances without needing crit chance sounds like a good solution to make it a desirable trait for all weapon sets/amulets though.

Well, yeah I can see it being usefull with a scepter and fresh air, but Arcana is such a generic trait line that a lot of eles use that I feel it should be usefull to any build really.

Bump for awareness.
