Yeah idk what you’re talking about D/D ele is still viable.
carried by blinding ashes and burning lol
I still don’t have any problem crushing people with D/D ele, I would even say none of the nerfs were that relevant.

It’s almost like the nerfs were more cosmetic than mechanics!
JK, they do hurt a little but D/D ele is still one of the best builds in the game as far as I can tell from fighting them, in fact they’re honestly better because I can’t just sit in their ring of fire and negate the effects any more. :P
D/D is still very strong in PvP….. -.-°
Hey, don’t crush his need for complaining, everyone has some from time to time :o
The big overarching problem they need to deal with is burning and i’ve been hearing so many people asking for it. I find these nerfs to D/D (and the “buffs” to Scepter) to be kind of hilarious, tbh. Although the nerf to blinding ashes was most definitely justified and relevant.

For D/D sure blinding ash most be nerfed but other specs didn’t deserve that nerf.
Was S/X was so OP that blinding ashes must be nerfed, it needs the BA more then D/D Ele.
O.o
Lol.
(Some extra arbitrary characters so I can post this)
This is what i hate most. The nerf itself for DD was OK. Also might from cantrips is a good thing. But BA nerfed is minor for D/D but hits fire scepter builds much more and they did´t deserve that. The same with vigor nerf. For D/D water builds not much change, because more vigor sources with cantrips annyway. All non water that rely on dodges/blinds because less regeneration are hurt much more. So it feels like while bringing D/D a bit down it creates more water/cantrip dependency to survive which is realy bad.
D/D is far from dead. Maybe we have overal less eles but the D/D percentage on eles might even go up.

I realy wish they made blinding ashes icd per person with the 8 sec cd they added to it and not per burn effect. It would of went a long way to make d/d viable in wvw.

The D/D build is far from dead. I’m just sad other builds had to suffer to keep that one in check when it could have been avoided. The traits nerfs were not required at all.
The first step should have been a reduction of the fire condi overall since it is too strong no matter the profession.
The second step should have been a reduction of dagger weapon skills potency in a form or another because it would only affect the culprit rather than all builds regardless.
Then, and only then, after having tried the first 2 steps and realizing it was not enough they could have consider touching the traits.
IDK why they proceeded to what should have been a surgical manipulation on ONE patient with what seems to be a jackhammer all over the hospital.
Blinding Ashes let you put sometimes 2 blinds before you needed to rotate to another element… that’s not overwhelming strong or something that can make you carry. But at least it could be timed in battle to save yourself from a burst WHILE being on fire. That was nice, and definitely a good grandmaster trait option.
But now the 3 extra secs kill the trait for me, as you wont stay in fire 8 secs just to trigger a second blind, and in that time Pyromancers Puissance can give you tons of might that are far more useful.
A shame, I really like non cantrip related defense as it gives us more build options.
