Minimalist's way of dealing with the patch
Loss of Electric Discharge is pretty huge.
Quasi-elitist dungeoneer and missing Gw1 GvGs greatly.

Actually it would be loss of weak spot….not a great trait but still losing a cover condition (60% chance vulnerability on crit).
Currently, I run a build with 25 points in air and 15 points in Water for the minimum heals, including cleansing wave. I also use a soldier’s ascended backpack because back when I made it, I figured it would go well with any build.
So guess what my solution to the patch is? I simply drop 5 points in air, get a zerker back item and now I have pretty much the exact same build as before!
The reason I’m posting this is to show Jon that if he makes the decision, it really won’t change anything…at least not for me.
He loses weakspot piercing shards synergy. That is just cause you value Cleansing Wave over the 25 point trait in Air(can’t say I blame you though). If that 25 point trait in Air was beastly it would be a much tougher decision say if it was something equal to the old bountiful power. Then I am sure some people maybe not you would keep the 5 points in Air. Those that have the kill them before they kill you mentality.

On average, it nets me 2 stacks of vulnerability…which is nice in teamfights of course (effectively +10% damage in dungeons). I can use the extra water slot for Vital Striking though.
If eruption were pulsed instead of delayed I might have given the new earth traits a try. Pity condition damage is so weak on staff.
