Meta?

I’m having trouble with this as well. Before 12/10 patch I use to run 0/30/0/30/10. I LOVE the 30 in Air for Fresh Air. The 10 in Arcana was obviously for Elemental Attunement. Now I have to trait 10 MORE into Arcana for it. I’m not sure if I should give up on Fresh Air, Elemenetal Attunement or the 30 in Water.
The new meta is actually S/F, here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EeRhQ40ckQ4
If you want S/D, same thing, except you do Earthquake instead of Magnetic Wave, and you skip Comet.
Is meta a new dungeon that I am not aware of?

From wikipedia: In epistemology, the prefix meta- is used to mean about (its own category). For example, metadata are data about data (who has produced them, when, what format the data are in and so on). In database metadata are also data about data stored in a data dictionary and describes information (data) about database tables such as the table name, table owner, details about columns, – essentially describes the table.
In video games: Meta is the current set style, per say. it is what is normally done.
Why gamers took this term and destroyed it and morphed it into the new stupid, idiotic, ridiculous meaning God only know, but they did and now when gamers use it thats what it means. Any body else in the world uses the first definition.
Meta has a legitimate meaning in pvp but none in PvE.
Also “max dps” statements are worthless without proper contextualisation.

I still love running 30 0 10 20 10 s/d LH in my groups. If you want more dps just take out the 10 from arcane and put it into air; I personally find it very hard to fight, especially lupi, with out the perma vigor though since I get all the kitten suck aggro on p3 ;-;
