Did any testing actually take place before these changes were rolled out? It seems like things were balanced based on general opinion because in the first stream of of the Dragonhunter an unskilled guardian was doing 5-6k burn ticks on an actual fight. Now the patch comes and guardian can barely manage 4k burns with an all out burn build and engi which was not shown on any stream before is getting 8k burns with ease on top of all other conditions they throw out. Is balance based on the twitch channel comments or do people actually compare numbers, test builds, and fight other people instead of test dummies?
