Guild Wars 2

One step toward esports, WP anet

Why surprised?
We have had the information about what would be changed in regards of balance for quite some time now.

I also was under the impression that celestial itself was not the issue, but rather the easy access to Might, which have now been nerfed.

cele nerf → nerf to engi → anet would never do that

Grouch plays Engi. :P

cele nerf -> nerf to engi -> anet would never do that

You must be new or have a bad / selective memory, for the first 12 months or so Engy was the most nerfed class in the game, some of the nerfs:

- Juggernaut trait went from a class that had the highest access to stability in the game to the lowest in one nerf.
- Kit refinement – twice, totally wrecked the trait to the point of uselessness.
- Grenades damage, plus poison duration, plus freeze grenade nerf, etc
- Incendiary powder twice (once duration, once moving it to master tier)
- Smoke bomb pulses nerfed
- Shield 5, twice.
- Transmute nerfed
- Mine field nerfed (blast finisher removed)
- Automated Response nerfed
- Elixir R – nerfed in multiple ways, silly cast time added, stun break removed, cooldown increased on rez, etc
- Elixir S – nerfed, used to be able to use toolbelt skills whilst invurn.

and so on…
