Guild Wars 2

Running a zerk LB ranger in WvW is always a fun to me. However, after today’s patch , I feel the LB damage got significantly decreased.
I have 3.5k+ atk power (plus bloodlust and some might stacks I maintain 4k+ atk in most of time), crit chance 68% with 100+% crit damage.
I can see 3k+ damage on a long range shot very often before patch, but since patch I never seen any any 3k+ number, even on NPCs. The best number I can see now is a little bit over 2k.
And just now when we chased a mesmer, I land a full rapid fire on him, and guess what —- it’s only 3.4k damage for all !!!!!! That’s not even 1/4 of him HP !!!!!!
A full offesive build/gears by sacrificing all survival and using the biggest hit of the class VS a low armor class = can’t even take 1/4 of HP !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Not sure if any1 else got the same feeling (my feeling is that LB damage got 25-30% nerf, it’s very significant to me), it just took away my last fun part of playing ranger in WvW.
Why ranger ? Why ranger again ?

Look at your traits. They probably got reset

Trait not re-set, otherwise I can’t have that high atk/crit w/o trait.

Uhhhh. Not sure?
I can tell you since I last checked the RF tooltip has decreased from 3580 to 3400 when wearing my berserker set and going 30 marksmanship. Which is a 5% difference or so.

However, the last time I checked was right before the update where the mid/close range LRS values were buffed. So, for all I know that change may have happened months ago.

It’s not you. Mesmers abuse the crap out of the trait in this current meta atm, granting them a plethora of defensive boons on top of a defensive state-of-being.

Also, consider Ascended Armor increasing the armor of the “Low Armor Class” as you call it.
