Guild Wars 2

Nerf berserker amulet instead. I don’t hear people crying about mesmer in valkyrie/soldiers/knights amulets.

All berserker and burning centric specs are doing silly damage given how little vitality scaled up by comparison.

How about condi in WvW which is nuts.

Mmm interesting thought. All I can really give you is my opinion of the topic. I always feel like some classes are more defense oriented and some more offense oriented (even without amulets and armor specs). To me this means a wide variety of VIABLE amulet options need to be available for whatever kind of class you have and whatever type of role you want. It kinda always bugged me that in gw is seemed like the only viable armor type was zerker. Players shouldn’t feel like zerker is not the only VIABLE choice. Perhaps the problem is that all amulets and armor have the same number stats, they just vary in what traits they booste. Maybe your right and this shouldn’t be the case. Maybe a broader look is needed to look at not just the amulets, but how the different types of classes interact with the variety of amulets as well. Of course, if the amulets where changed, it might cause some complaints from players who don’t realize that these changes where made not by comparing the amulets together, but by comparing the amulets and classes together into one pile. Most players would probably not understand this.

It’s mainly the burning. The largest offenders on burning are ele/guardian/engi.

And maybe mesmer is not the most urgent to nerf in any case…

Can’t wait to see what reason they get out of this video to nerf Mesmer.

Because the interaction between Healing Prism x Vampiric is OP, must be the Mes’ fault. (Seriously, why a 10s ICD? What was the reasoning behind 10s?)

Yeah it’s due to an old or new trait being applied or something. It’s on the engineer forums, best part is the engineers trying to defend a very obvious bug like this.

While I wouldn’t say the healing prism thing was a bug, I would certainly say it’s painfully obvious to everyone it was too easy to proc constantly with other class interactions. No-one should defend the old healing prism.

That doesn’t mean I support keeping a 10s ICD, I’d like a real work around which stops it healing off small heals and heals off those intended like greater than 500hp which would be mantra charge, healing mantra, heal skills and the shatter heal.

I think healing prism should have healed allies for a percentage of your own healing and thus without ICD.

Yeah, that’s the best suggestion I’ve seen. It’s not only a good way to balance the trait, it’s also more intuitive.

Not really. That is to say, due to the bug Grenade Engi dominates the entire playing field in WvW right now and the dynamics of either side is who can field their engis more effectively, protect them better, etkitten

il that is resolved, we don’t even know how WvW works.

Berserker amulet is already nerfed so hard that many run marauder instead.

Its was the mesmers fault – she was asking for it.

Anet: Oh enginades and burning are bugged? Better nerf Mesmer.

Let’s just make an estimate
1 year to fix turret engineer while everybody was complaining about it
1 day to butcher mesmer’s chaotic dampening that nobody complained
… don’t hold your breath, next WvW year, your nerfed PU won’t allow you to escape engineer’s doomsday devices. But if by miracle you do, just shatter 4 stacks of torment to your enemy while he puts 30 stacks of burning on you
