Guild Wars 2

not sure if its a bug.my meteor shower cast faster but the time it does damage is cut in half and the amount of damage feels weaker .it says the radius of damage is 90 that seem alittle to small for a aoe.plus the one meteor shower i could put right over three cows all 3 would die now after patch it only hits one cow for very little damage andthe other two cows still chewing grass lol at me

pls reread my notes
now 90 RADIUS DAMAGE TIME DEALING DAMAGE CUT IN HALF

I’m going to assume english isn’t your first language which is why you’re post is written like that.

Now, before the update, meteor shower’s animation made it drop more meteors than it really did. That means that some meteors did damage while others were there to make it look like it was going to hit something.

Anet changed the animation so that it will only show the meteors that will cause damage and they also increased the area of effect from 90 to a currently unknown number. Personally, I’m guessing it was increased to 120 but there has been no proof. Again, that is a guess based on the many times I’ve used meteor shower since the buff.

Also, no, the damage was not reduced or else people would have posted about this by now and there would have been many responses.

face palm .dude there is stuff on forums even a before and after video

using staff ele build, it works the same way, damage is the same, but radius of every
strike is bigger, so there can be no complaints about it since meteor shower took fine
buff.

Yes, very nice buff. Shorter cast time, bigger radius of damage per meteor.

People on the forums posting selected clips doesn’t make a case. Accumulated data from testing would and I have not seen any of that.

I’m actually noticing a lot more downed symbols popping up when I use meteor shower than before. Before the meteor drops often hit nothing and it seemed like it wasn’t really doing all that much damage, just 1-3 hits during an entire storm. Now it’kittenting a lot more players a lot more often.
