June 25th patch made Elixir X occasionally do nothing and go on full CD. It also only updated the non-Gadgeteer upgraded Personal Battering Ram. So when you take your GM Tools trait, you self-nerf the cooldown by 50%. Amazing.

Elixir X now occasionally doesn't do anything and goes on full CD.

Anet only changed the non-Gadgeteer buffed Ram, so taking your Grandmaster Tools trait now nerfs its cd by 50% 🙂

Achievement unlocked: https://imgur.com/a/EUc3DgS Been fun, some good memes, and frustrating arguments. Doesn't take 1000 posts and a leaked discord to realize it mostly amounts to entertainment. I'll leave you with these cold, hard facts. People play what they enjoy and what they enjoy most is winning. Engineer has always been the rarest class with by far the least playtime of all the original classes: https://gw2efficiency.com/account/player-statistics. Chalk it up to complexity, weakness, or both. Just remember, when you lost to that Core Engineer it was because they were better than you. Get good, buff Engineer, and nerf your class 😉

Does it really need to be said that most impactful CCs have cast times and Reaper stability is instant cast? Meaning a good Reaper can see you casting your CC, eat it with Stability, and leave you in a worse position than before? Yet again, proving you don't think before you speak.

You're missing the point. If you're an expert you should be able to provide simple counter points. Like saying why 2x teleports are somehow not better at disengaging than 2x blocks, or why perma-prot 2nd health bar class is actually a better focus target than the 13k HP Elementalist. Are you already pivoting from "holos claiming they're weak to conditions"? Here are the top posts from about the last month: https://imgur.com/a/UmxhX0h Please point to the "plenty of posts" from Holos claiming "it's not actually very good and it dies easily". It should be easy, because there are plenty. OR are you just upset?

How about Rangers get nerfed into Mech levels of uselessness all at once, so then they can be nerf free the remaining patches? Or is one pet class favored over the other?

Lemme know when you see a post from a static discharge Holo player asserting they're weak to conditions. I'm all for checking inexperienced players opinions on here. You have to be able to backup what you claim. If I can come in here, easily refute what you're saying, and your response is a cop out like this...well you just look wrong. Actual expertise and understanding is shown by conveying complex points simply. Not by calling others low-rated and dismissing arguments.

1. Holosmith becomes meta 2. Core gets nerfed for Holosmith (Grenades, Rifle Turret, Shield, Healing Turret, Inventions traits, Alchemy traits etc.) <--- We are here 3. Other core skills gets buffed as compensation (Rifle autos, Flamethrower, Toss Elixir U etc.) 4. Buffed core skills gets nerfed to state worse than it was before (Rifle autos, Flamethrower, Toss Elixir U etc.) 5. An expansion gets released

Everyone gets rando blinded, that's not a specific counter to Necro. Necro is actually great at dealing with condis. Everyone gets countered by whole-team pressure, that's not a specific counter to Necro. Reaper with uber-protection, shroud, on-demand instant cast multi-stability + AoE Fear + Stuns, gigantic mobile projectile hate and 2x teleports is not even close to being the weakest in Xv1s. This decade-old belief about Necro needs to die. Reaper comes with default 3-stack instant cast stability turned AoE fear. That's often paired with Chilled to the Bone stability. Pretty good if you ask me. Reaper with 2 teleports and the unblockable shout is/was the default top build for Necro on metabattle: https://metabattle.com/wiki/Build:Reaper_-_Balanced_Condi_Reaper If Shroud with built-in protection is paper thin when focused, what about classes/builds without Shroud or protection? ... Am I crazy or are people insanely spoiled/unaware of how good their class has things?
