Guild Wars 2

iDeulist + combo fields. yup… Looks like this has been nerfed. Or “fixed”.

The icon spam is what was fixed, if I understand you correctly. Duelist never applied projectile finishers on every hit despite flashing the combo icon for every hit.

The confusion icon was fixed, as well as the damage that went along with it. The iDuelist was stacking 12 or so confusions through a combo field, the damage would match the stacks. Now it will stack 2 tops, damage matching the 2 stacks.

IIRC iDeulist was getting a 100% combo finisher for every shot instead 20% per shot like other muli-shot finishers

I can confirm this, reliably stacking 8 confusion every summon, never more or less – if it were only 20% then it should average around 2, sometimes less sometimes more.

Did they at least fix zerker or was this update purely to nerf mesmer?

Purely the latter.

Don’t worry about iDuelist finishers either they’re not done “fixing” mesmer.

iDuelist is bugged in that it is normally a 20% projectile finisher, but if you take the Duelist’s Discipline trait it becomes a 100% projectile finisher.

As far as I know this bug has not been fixed, but I didn’t test this.

iDuelists finisher is still 100% with Duelist’s Discipline. So appears to still be. . . broken.

Edit: Tested it a few min ago again to be sure.
