Guild Wars 2

Blind was replaced with weakness due to the skill being “too defensive”. This change was absolutely uncalled for, the blind was supposed to combo with Ineptitude in the first place, that’s why it was on the skill. But no, Anet just had to remove all trait combos for all the wrong reasons.

But Ananeos! I want to spam my skills at the Mesmer without worrying about silly things like mechanics! Blind is unfair because it means I can’t spam as easily!

Correct. Justly nerfed.

Careful, Anet might take you seriously with all this sarcasm :/

But a one in three chance of being blinded every second for the five seconds we attacked the purple egg was too much for us to handle. After >3 years of oppressive RNG blind we have finally been liberated and the purple egg will no longer ruin this game!

Actually a bit of a weak explanation, as nothing prevents you from spamming the skills.
I think what you wanted to say is that a Thief died when jumping a Mesmer in WvW, and this immediately caused an all-hands-on-deck alarm at the ANet HQ and a solution had to be found. As it was found that an attack of the Thief had missed, Blind was removed to fix this critical issue. :P
