DonArkanio.6419 Posted March 5, 2019 Share Posted March 5, 2019 But the PvE still has a 3 second CD. Only the PvP version has a higher, 6 s CD.It now gives you an extra Burn-spike in PvP and Open world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
narcx.3570 Posted March 5, 2019 Share Posted March 5, 2019 Against the golem it's essentially 4 less ticks of burn. So a direct nerf of 25% for PvE renegades.Way more damage in PvP vs a player who's not afk tho... Even including the doubled cd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vilesoldier.9826 Posted March 5, 2019 Share Posted March 5, 2019 As @DonArkanio.6419 mentioned, this change wasn't meant to increase the dps of searing fissure, but to more front-load the burning of the skill since no one stands in it for the full duration.

Vasdamas Anklast.1607 Posted March 7, 2019 Share Posted March 7, 2019 I liked this "nerf". I don't need to force people to stand in it like before but that's purely from PvP perspective Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As a PvE player, my issue is that the new searing fissure deals less damage in total than the old searing fissure. More front loaded damage is nice for pvp, but they didn't also need to reduce the total output of the skill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blood Red Arachnid.2493 Posted March 10, 2019 Share Posted March 10, 2019 I'm wondering how long the benefits will last in PVP myself. The remaining fire field is now a toothless tiger that can be ignored in relative safety. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not that I agree but that is what they said. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LucianDK.8615 Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 Considering the numbers on benchmarks condirevs is crowding big hitbox targets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Za Shaloc.3908 Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 Just want to pipe in and say that this change feels amazing for PvP/WvW. I was concerned about the CD increase but it feels fine when I play it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The adjustment did not change kitten.Last season I took seriously was pre-PoF but thanks for the cute generic jab. I roam in WvW and it works great for me there. Between this and the SotM change I feel like I can burst people down better. Obviously such a small change is not gonna suddenly push condi rev into the meta, but is still a helpful change.

I also do not follow this mentality of something is better than nothing. If the devs are doing a half ass job they should not be complimented.

I also do not follow this mentality of something is better than nothing. If the devs are doing a half kitten job they should not be complimented. But you are only accounting for the increased CD and not the tripled initial burn (and increased damage, but that is minor). It's not often that an intelligent/aware player will sit in the fire field, so the initial burst is really helpful to have. It makes sense to me why the CD was increased in WvW/PvP because the frontloaded damage is pretty significant. I am not trying to baby the devs and of course there are disadvantages to the increased CD, I am just saying that in my experience it feels better than it did before. It makes me use the skill a bit differently, but I feel more rewarded for it now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
