Guild Wars 2

I didn’t play during the beta but I have always heard about the big elementalist nerf in BWE3.

Can anyone list what they nerfed exactly for the elementalist?

They basically reduced the damage on some of the key burst skills… Dragons tooth being one that comes to mind….

Care for dragon’s tooth, I want more damage on all my Scepter #1’s attacks :<

Pretty sure they removed the damage from air dagger #5, seem to remember that doing damage in BWE1

It wasn’t BWE3, it was closer to release. Around the time they cleaned up the wording of skills across all professions and implemented the new vulnerability setup.

Arcane skills were hit pretty hard with damage reductions & an increase to recharge times, yet Arcane Power still eluded the devs and remains broken still. Certain skills were buffed (lightning whip was one of them, if you can believe it) and other skills were nerfed. Meteor Shower, Arcane skills and Hurl (scepter #2) are the ones I remember most.

Was it this patch?
