As someone playing on the highest level of wvw zerging, scorched earth feels terrible against good zergs when they stack really tight and have good movement. The target cap of 3 is literally doing nothing when they are stacked tightly. When comparing holosmith to berserker, holosmith is just far superior because of its insanely good sustained dps uptime whereas berserker is short burst dps and it sucks when you miss because you are blinded or you hit pets/enemies that just got into downstate and do 0 damage. And it is so easy to step out of scorched earth hitbox like why even nerf it?
