Tempest as source of Might in WvW after patch.

[Virtuality.8351]

Just realized that, while the most sources of Might are going to have their duration standardized to 6 seconds, Might generated by combo will remain 20 seconds, untouched. Although this probably won't bring us back to pre-expansion combo phasing in WvW, the 20-second baseline will certainly allow a farther stack-and-start position and better damage overtime if not stripped. Not to mention that the class has not only the best access to Fire Field and Blast Finisher, but also a built-in 420 Concentration buff in Arcane and Tempest.

Edit: Not saying that people haven't been doing this with Tempest. Just that people usually get by with Empower and Facet, while a collective combo stacking is rarely called for these days.

Not sure what's the exact value, but concentration is also getting nerfed. From what I can remember, tempest was the only one that can instantly grant 10 might stacks (shout+wh) so it's not looking terrible considering that all might sources have quite low duration.

Yep. Arcane is awful, earth was always almost useless and fire+water is already a strong choice even in power meta (and it's not getting nerfed much). Blinds from fire GM work on aoes now so Feel the Burn is a must have when you consider all the stuff it comes with.
