Well, despite the fact that I didnt like many changes about ele (not that im not happy about the buffs, just that they buffs came mostly in places we didnt ask for, I would have preferred if they had focused on the issues with survival but oh well, conjures are fun I guess)
Im actually liking that for dungeons, basically if we can keep the boss in the same place lava font is a boss killed, add the fact that meteor shower is actually daring to hit more than once or twice and i gotta admit staff DPS in dungeons have gone up!

I guess nobody else found it impressive. In the midst of all nerfs overall we got, all unnecesary nd wronlyplaces buffs, I think this one was well deserved. Doesnt solve the problem lava font has in PvP, but as far as PvE is concerned, Im majorly happy about it

Honestly I think we’ve lost so many ele players from nerfs that the ones left are the diehards already set in their ways. I’m really loving staff lately though, not to derail.
Oh Im definitely one of those, I no longer take ele outside CoE and CoF, maybe AC p3, but thats about it, the class has been beyond gutted in PvP and now In WvW it even got yet another nerf with AoE now counting dodge and blocks ….. yay, I finally found the courage to pick up my guardian and fiish my almost complete Sunrise.
it is just that I like that change, now I can even use icebow #4 every now and then on other bosses

Another nice change that seems undocumented is our Persisting Flames trait. Changed from 30% to a flat 2 seconds, for Lava Font a 50% increase, which now makes it easier to blast it with Eruption when switching both ways.
There’s a bug though in that the increased duration is not displayed in the tooltip.
