Guild Wars 2

When I started out playing Engineer in September one of the first things I learned how to do correctly was apply the 2 second burn from air blast (it only works if they were already burning. Think about why).

But, today I noticed that the burn has been removed from Air Blast completely and there was nothing in the patch notes about it, as according to the wiki. What gives?

10th december patch
on 29th november there was a first update and some general fix
wtf never fix what need fixed

Why was this necessary? As it stands now a pistol in the offhand now produces more burn time than the flamethrower can.

They can’t have the engineer class functioning logically, that would be OP as kitten.

Thought it was just me

This is dumb, why are they removing burns on things silently?

Just tested this in the Heart of the Mist. Air Blast still applies its 2 second burn if the target is already burning.

it still works 151515115

Oddly enough, the Bomb Kit actually provides the best burning upkeep. With Short Fuse and Koi Cake, and with 30 points in Explosives, Fire Bomb perma burns targets.
