Guild Wars 2

Ok, now granted I am currently in lower areas and being adjusted level wise but I feel a lot less squishy all the sudden. Even mobs that gave my guardian a hard time just last week seem to be a lot less a threat as my ele. I’m not having to hit keys wildly just to kill stuff and keep alive and can even take a few hits before I die.

Granted this is a 26 human ele in the 1-15 sylvanti area, but two guild mates also claim they feel a bit stronger with this patch and they are much higher in level. So anyone else feel stronger or are we suddenly all three ‘clicking’ when it comes to this class?

lol@ stealth buff…

Same as before patch. The only thing that’s really changed much for me is d / d lightning whip does a lot more dps on multiple enemies now.

Also being overleveled in a lower level area makes a huge difference. Even when you get leveled down you still usually get a 1-2 level advantage over stuff you’re fighting. That’s huge.

No… Not not really
Just now, I was actually lamenting the fact that I was nearly dying in a level 50 area with my level 80 elementalist because I took on 3 spread out ranged mobs at once.

Whereas with my guardian I can do this with so much ease that I actually get out of the fight with full health and without all my utilities on cooldown.

Must be in your head bro.

To be fair the guardian has two ways to negate ranged combat where most only have one, further they last longer then others as well.

But yeah, went through a story quest I just could not finish and kept breaking my armor. But last night they didn’t hurt me as much. This was at level btw, which means no adjustment.

Maybe it wasn’t a direct buff, but since I can actually play again I think i’ll give my ele some more time.

Your gear and traits are not down-leveled, so that’s properly the reason why you feel more powerful when visiting low-level areas a second time.
