The Evasive Arcana proc on Earth Attunement is being changed from Churning Earth to Shockwave according to that_shaman and IntoTheMists build calculators, I have re-watched the Ready-Up Livestream and Anet doesnt mention anything about it.
Can I have this thing explained? ‘Cause that’s a pretty big change imo.

I think it could be just a mistake in the calculator? Or maybe they renamed it?

I thought it has been Shockwave for a while. Could be wrong.

Intothemists Calculator also says shockwave.

Wiki states live as churning earth. Fairly big change if it’s actually changed:

High Warlord Sikari (80 Reaper) / Lord Siekron (80 DH)
Warlord Sikari (80 Scrapper)

I really can’t imagine how that would work, though. I really hope it’s not going to be just to remove the blast from it when engis got blast on dodge.

i think the shock wave when its churning earth is a thing for a very long time.
Just a description error.Btw i wish it becomes shockwave even without the blast..
It used to be like that in beta and it would be just amazing in every possible way

Oh yeah, I just checked it in game, never noticed that. So how did it work in beta?

Ye I just noticed aswell, weird tho…
Why isnt it fixed yet? It’s only confusing…

EDIT: Wiki says Churning Earth (with substantial differences ofc)

In beta you dodged and if i remember correctly a shockwave was unleashed at the direction you are facing at that time although sometimes it felt a bit weird at aiming.Pretty epic though!
Btw at that time the air spell was updraft and of course everything was a blast finisher in any attunement even if the spell was on cd .You can imagine the cc lock.. too bad no one knew how to play back then

People from ready-up were so clueless about everything concerning ele, they would have missed that change even if it was there… “anything changed here? Is this new? I don’t know, lets move on!” pathetic.

Thats a fair question though, personally I’d rather it stay as mini CR then Shockwave. Can imagine all kind of issues with aiming that.

Haha, that sounds awesome, makes me feel sad I didn’t play during beta.
