It just seems to me fire could use a little love, and I thought of something to consider… what if all #3 fire weapon abilities had some kind of boon burn on them, and what if some talents were made to reinforce that theme?

Just pulling ideas out of a hat is all. Copper for your thoughts!

Ouch. We should have had searing flames for our minor grandmaster trait, it shouldn’t have been part of the guardians’ traits to begin with imo.

One of the ideas I’ve been kicking around lately is to merge the current Pyromancer’s Puissance into Pyromancer’s Alacrity to make it equivalent to the Warrior Master trait Forceful Greatsword (might on critical hit with Gsword/spear, -20% cooldown on Gsword/spear skills). Forceful Greatsword would actually still be better because it can maintain more might and warrior uses GS more than ele uses fire. Just goes to show how bad Fire is right now.

The new Pyromancer’s Puissance would remove a boon when you apply burning and deal damage (0.6 coefficient) when remove a boon.

“We recognize that the changes to [ele] will essentially remove it from play. In the future,
we may consider whether or not there is an incarnation of [ele] that would be viable
but balanced. For now, we do not expect it to see serious use.” – ANet

Didn’t you know, eles aren’t allowed to have nice things.

Next patch will probably just give warrior’s the ability to boon steal on successful auto-attack instead.

I do like the idea of combining alacrity spells with other passive damage buffs. Other classes get their 20% weapon skill cooldowns reduced with sizable buffs to boot. it would also open up 4 new talents options in the tree.
