So, as the title implies, the patch is live, and a new “feature” has been added that wasn’t mentioned at all right up until we went live, where, just like adrenaline with warriors, Astral Force when leaving combat very quickly evaporates into thin air.
If this is intended, then this is a horrible change, and needs to be reverted ASAP. It severely limits the application of Celestial Form and it eliminates skillful play through resource management.
Seriously? Jesus freeking Christ…… what the hell are they thinking?
Yeah, makes me REAL nervous for pro league PvP viability.

Druid should only ever be used in a raid environment?
…..
loss for words.
Yes, this is a major slap in the face.
There’s no way this is intended right?
was clear that druid will not stay amazing like in the beta.
guess they want every druid to force using staff…
the beta version of Lingering Light was also better for most not staff using builds i guess.
but need to test tonight Oo
at least, for pvp, mesmer will anyways rule everything untill the next balance patch…
i’m interested to see ranger back there, but well… lets see how much cheese will run around the next days
Astral Force feels useless, takes to long to build and runs out way too fast.
Yeah . . . I don’t even bother with it now.
The traitline itself is great, but Avatar has been reduced to me going “oh hey, I finally have Celestial Form” and then getting to actually utilize it maybe only a handful of times in a PvP match.
Roy strikes again.
How to dest-Roy an elite spec
this nerf is complete BS. funny how the dev left that out of the preview….no wonder he was silent for so long
getting druid when from 3rd priority, to last.
So many posts about this everywhere… The real problem is that this is not the only problem they have right now :p There are quite a few elite specs that present massive issues so this might not be top priority.
When you think about it, it’s their first expansion so errors were predictable. I guess it will all be resolved in a week or two. Until then we just have to sit tight and try to get through the jungle without losing our minds.
Once again I’m glad I never pre-order anything.

As usual when it comes to ranger. Not a top priority
Obviously this isn’t intended. Otherwise it would have been clearly stated in the patch notes. I know we’re all a bit paranoid because, “Oh geez, here we go again, Anet hates rangers” but this is obviously some kind of error that will get fixed.

Sure.
You think it is a bug, but knowing ANet for quite some time, this will become a feature of the druid…

Its not like the decay was present before and its effect has just increased accidentally with a larger than intended value. This is a fundamental mechanic change to a system and has been knowingly and intentionally implemented.
I don’t think its an issue of ‘hate’, more an issue of lack of testing, knowledge and forethought.

We can hope. Maybe its just the Druid’s second beta weekend?
IMO its a gamebreaking change that should have been shared with the community before launch.
if its a bug….even worse, as those take YEARS to get fixed.
CA form only lasts 15s too now (use to be 20s).
I felt like CAF was shorter so that its only 15s makes sense. Gotta say, these stealth nerfs have totally killed my hype for HoT.
