Guild Wars 2

Apart from the glaring error of not putting backdraft back in, flame thrower has now been fixed back to broken status.
Previously a double detonation would pressure an invader and allow my little grp to use strategies to live and with luck succeed, ie the opposing thief insta jibbing everyone would have to think twice about his approach. Now Detonation is hitting for 2k crits in full zerker gear.
No food buffs mind you but yah, thanks for nothing. For the love of god, open a test server or go and play wvw with your fixed tweaks before giving us all a big cup of fail.

it was probably my fault… i started using FT on tPvP during the weekend and i might have hit a Dev.. my bad

it sucks tho cause FT only has 2 damage skills ( and FT #1 sucks ), so having 1 hard hitting one woulda been fine and kept the kit attractive ! honestly i fell in love with the FT over the weekend and lots of engi did!! now its just bad again

Mmm just got hit for 5.8k from a heart seeker. A spamable. Seriously you should be ashamed.

Could do with smth broken in crit generally.

I agree if us, as Engineer, players have any sway over the Flamethrower, please give us this back. The Double PoP was the only thing keeping the Flamethrower dream alive. please bring the Double Detonate back or make it trait able

Agreed. With the Flame Bast bug the overall damage output from the FT was adequate. The higher burst on Flame Blast was balanced by its cooldown and weaknesses in other areas of the kit. Not that it’s been nerfed :-(

We have so much CC and nothing to do with it all now.
