Guild Wars 2

So what if we removed the damage from Chilling Nova trait, reduced the chill to 1s(down from 1,75s) and gave it a 1 sec icd instead of the 8s it has now?

Now this might seem like a nerf in itself but when you combine it with other traits like Deathly Chill and Bitter Chill, it would actually synergize much better, and rather be a buff when combined with them. This way Deathly Chill wouldn’t need any further changes.

What do you think?

i see no problem with aoe chilling bleed explosions every second, seems totally balanced

The difference is it doesn’t affect single target damage. And the only way you could realistically apply it every second would be with RS #4 in an ice field.
