New downstate kind of nerfed 1 playstyle
If you rely on going down to win a fight with any profession, you are doing it wrong.
Interesting tactic. Many players will choose not to try and range a downed ele because they know that mist will kick in before the ele is dead, and almost any player will see a single lava font and decide that it’s worth the risk. This would only work once against good players, but it sure is funny.
Lava tomb still works nicely with Vapor Form. They’ll take the hits in an attempt to kill you, you become mist, and if you got to down them, your chances for survival improve greatly (that, and vapor form can take you where they can’t hit, giving you time to heal).
Maybe now you can take lava tomb and the damage with vapor form.
Gives you an aoe damage skill, and an instant invulnerability + damage from it.
Than you played vs idiots. And since #2 wasnt instantly avaible after downed they should have had loads of time to move.
Everyone always comes in for the stomp, asks questions later. And by the time they start asking questions the skill was off cooldown. Everything can be avoided, countered – and if they don’t they are idiots?
You are glass “cannon” staff ele. It will be rare for you to get anyone near death before you are downed. You will need to be in proper attunment as well. Anyone seeing lava font and trying to kill you while low hp IS an idiot.
edit:
However if you do manage to pull that by some miracle u might wanna throw in eruption as well.
