Not Addressing Catalyst Sustain?

[Zex Anthon.8673]

You really think changing some damage coefficients and reducing ammo counts is gonna fix this class?

• Dragon's Tooth is still busted as long as it forces a dodge
• Water Trident still hits like a truck, what happened to "purity of purpose"?
• Catalyst still has near permanent projectile block with magnetic aura and swirling winds.
• Stability uptime is still insane from staunch auras
• Obsidian Flesh is still chainable

If anything you buffed the sustain on this class with the cantrip changes. Reduced cooldowns being made baseline, barrier on Armor of Earth. We might actually see this skill being taken over Signet of Air now that you don't need to take water to reduce the cooldown.

@Cal Cohen.2358keep up the good work. I'm sure you can finally rest when only elementalists play your kittening game.

swirlind winds is a weapon skill not a cata exclusive skill.  Unless you're referring to ele celerity doubling it. (75s cd with patch). So don't know if you're proposing a FOCUS nerf or what.
Magnetic aura from cata can only be accessed ACTIVELY by combo finisher in sphere in earth only once per atuning. Tempest technically can have more mag aura uptime than a cata from utilities and overload.
