I didn’t know the dev team actually had the capability to hotfix balance changes into the game! usually we have to wait 4-6 months for this level of change. this works out perfectly. given how broken d/d eles still are, I’d like to start a motion to hotfix some d/d ele balance changes into the game within the next 24 hours. no need to test or do any QA, just bring some numbers down arbitrarily. this is an emergency, even more urgent than the perma quickness pve ranger build that broke the entire game.
Yeah, it actually made me laugh. They changed “we heal as one” after one day on the least used class in PvP and yet they still can’t figure out how to deal with burn stacking after 3 months. Embarrassing.
I called it. I did. People will still qq about d/d eles after the ‘nerf’. They truly done kittened up this time. D/d is still as broken as before and s/x is still trash tier.

I’m still fighting mostly d/d eles in my bracket, and the team with the most d/d’s is winning easily. the amount of cleansing, burning, sustain and mobility is outright insane.
could we hotfix some d/d balance balance changes like we did with the OP ranger? I didn’t know you guys could hotfix balance changes, and seeing how this balance pass was ultimately a failure after 4 months of waiting, a hotfix would be most appropriate I think.

I am laughing so hard at the fact that players have any weight in how classes are balanced. It should be based on stats and stats alone. This is where ANET made their biggest mistake nerfing a class based on the salty tears of the community now every players is going to expect if they rage hard enough they will get what they want.
You call ranger OP. At what point has ranger every been OP in the last 8 months? It has been 24/hours and we got nerfed from a buff. That isn’t even enough time to see if players are able to adapt to the change. Hell there isn’t even enough stats to justify the nerf.
No, d/d ele is not straight-up stronger than every other brawler build anymore. People expect their zerker/condi-burst build to have a winning fight against a brawler, and won’t stop complaining until it happens. When teams start shifting away from eles and towards more necros…about a month later people would realize that ele shouldn’t be public enemy #1 anymore. Of course, HoT is going to shake up balance a lot anyway.
The balance of necro v. ele is now much more in necro’s favor, offering a more natural hard-counter. Soldier engie can trade blows just as well (esp. b/c condi damage from ele is WAY lower). Any brawler can do just about as good.
I was being sarcastic. even with 16s of quickness and 25 stacks of might, the ranger was middle of the pack at best. yet they brought it back down to nothing, leaving the most broken spec in the game top dog for over a year. and guess what? now we have to wait until HoT rolls out so they can “observe” for another year before realizing once again that d/d cele is the bane of pvp.

he was being sarcastic when he said rangers are op
who cares about trading blows? ive been trading blows with eles on my valk ranger since June 23rd without dying, but what difference does that make? signet necro was required before to defeat the d/d, and that hasn’t changed. what’s a pvt engie gonna do to an ele lol? (please don’t try to answer that). and why should necros be required so that pvp can be enjoyable? this is ridiculous.
