Guild Wars 2

pre-patch i believe my grenade barrage damage(in the tooltip) was 264 x6, now i see it as 221 x6.
another nerf? really? someone tell me i’m losing it. i understand the nerf is insignificant, the point isn’t in how little damage was taken away, it’s just that there was another one on top of the recent ones.

Update – 14 December 2012

Engineer

Engineer kits now inherit the bonuses from currently equipped weapon sigils.
“Grenade” skill now does 30% less damage to balance against using sigils.

i’m already aware of the -30% however i didn’t notice a damage reduction in the tool belt aspect until tonight

This means we had to tone down some of the kits accordingly, the biggest of which was the Grenade kit.

Incidentally, what he’s trying to say there is “We nerfed all/most kits, and then nerfed grenade #1 by 30% on top of that”. Which explains why it was nerfed 35% in total.
