Guild Wars 2

Anet know whats op and what isnt. The problem is when they try to do nerfs they always do buffs by mistake. Eles should be happy nerfs are incoming becaus3 it will be insignificant nerfs coupled with massive buffs. Always what anet have done

Sekai.2987:

if they nerf the cele dd , i hope they at least make a bersek build good enough to play it in torunaments

That’s not gonna happen. They would have to completely rework the class for this to be possible and give it something so it can compete with thieves and mesmers, since it lacks so much utility compared to those two specs. Its survability isn’t the greatest either and they would need to buff the base survability while nerfing the traited one, which is not really possible without some major changes.

The issue is the fact that if they nerf d/d ele (and they should) and make it unplayable there will be just completely nothing ele will be able to play. Sure, there is a sort of viable staff build and some totally unvaible fresh air builds, but that’s not gonna make the class stay in meta. D/D ele is simply the only thing ele can offer right now and due to the fact tempest is just complete trash I’m a bit worried about the nerfs.

Edit: Also, to the people who say that ele should be nerfed to the ground. If you nerf d/d ele, you’re also indirectly nerfing cele necro, so think about what you say before you actually say it.

The issue is that ele is supposed to be jack of all trades, but great at none. What has happened though is the opposite.

1. Best condi damage in the game (through burns)
2. Best sustain in the game
3. Best condi clear in the game
4. Best 1v1 potential in the game

Ele needs to have one of two things:
1. Average at all of those items and be adaptable to any situation
2. Let users spec into 1 or 2 of the points and then be really poor at other areas.

Lower the might on cantrip use.
Increase cd on burning ashes.
Increase cd on burning fire and reduce to 2 condi removed, i dont even know why the kitten they have 3 condi cleanse and burning application in fire which is an offensive traitline.
Fix burning application amount on all classes that can stack 6+ instantly.
Increase cd of evasive arcana.
Done.

Keep in mind none of these need significant nerfs, spread it accross these skills and the build will fall in line.

For the love of Abaddon rework diamond skin and stone heart as well before they become an issue.

celeddele nerf inc they said

necro gets the nerf bat instead
