And here we go…

Predicting massive Ele nerf for season 7 (it always takes them a couple seasons to harshly nerf something, except rev which took 4 seasons to bring them in line with most other professions)

Oh so it was you who lobbied so hard for elementalist overbuffing ?

My sample size is the size of EU PvP lobby mapchat which is still smaller then your scattered EGO that required to overbuff 1 class and make it FoTM (like DH and Necro previous one)

Thank you for the giggle. Completely needed today.

Its very refreshing to see some valid snark from a dev once in a while.

Don’t look at me like that. Whatever you’ve heard, it’s probably not true.

Normally I’d put “u mad?” but it’s not really a question in this case.

It’s a reflection of what happened in S4.

Ele was bad, people jump ship to DH = a dh surplus
Rev is nerfed, people jump ship to Ele = a ele surplus

Differences? Ele is still bad and don’t stack as well as DH can… nothing to see here, move along.

Stacking ele will not provide much benefit. DPS ele without being able to use multiple gear stats leaves you with fresh air focus or support ele with dagger/focus/warhorn.

4 support ele will be tough to kill but not the be all end all.
fresh air ele have some fairly easy counters such as stealthing etc.

Wait, I thought DH was OP,
or was it Condi Mesmer?
No,no, that’s not right, it’s Warrior.
Now that i think about it, Druid’s pet makes it waaay too OP.
Engi is so cheap it’s OP. How many “F” skills does one class need?!
Reaper is OP, always going into shroud right before he’s down.
Thief is horribly OP, always sneaking up on me when I’m about to kill that OP DH.
Rev has always been OP, cause Anet wants to sell HOT, can you believe that??

But most of all…
Ele is OP because it heals everyone and hates projectiles, Soooo unfair!!

Lmao at these war are op threads. Try playing faceroll guard instead of faceroll ele.

Nobody knows what the actually op builds are.

Ele was already so strong that I’m kind of baffled that it got a buff. But then I don’t have all the data.

Ele is so abjurdly OP that it’s bent time and space and gone all the way back to UP, but we all know it’s super OP it only just registers on the OP scale because it’s actually OP+1 level.

If you don’t agree with me then you’re not allowed to disprove my opinion because everyone is entitled to an impervious factually correct opinion free of judgement and criticism.

ele is a broken class. being able to sustain an entire team even when outnumbered is really broken. It can also keep alive a necro with 0 sustain on its own . Team with ele automatically wins if the other one dosent have one.

Ele was already so strong that I’m kind of baffled that it got a buff. But then I don’t have all the data.

The summary of the data would be that the things that were buffed were not used by its strong build, and will still not be used in its meta build after the patch.
