SW Nerf

[RyanMakara]

Order still has pounce and SW still can spec into Fester and do more than an SH who specs Poison Arrer...

Are SWs really not viable anymore because they do a little bit less damage on a 5 second ability (this sounds familiar)?

Breaking easymode meta we've known for years always rustles the jimmies of the class players that are affected, don't read into their whining so much

[Koradrell]

Every decent SW at live I have known was not specced for Festering Arrow. Dropping insta cast, no cooldown healdebuff for it is just not worth. Yes you can troll with FA, but it will never make you good SW. Effective stance dancing does, mainly the correct use of Assault stance.

Finally someone that knows how to properly play a SW

Are SW's still viable? Sure they are. But why nerf them? In the 5 seconds that it takes an SW to do a FB, a SH can do the equal damage with 2 dots and a squig. But we dont need to nerf the SH right? Only the SW!

Really? You're comparing "possible" dmg done in 3GCD by dots & pet with oneshoting? Troll detected!

So bitching about OP SW for like 30 pages did actually work. What class we taking next on target?:D

Melee SW or no balls.

Yeah every SW should run melee and every SH only in squig armor this is why they have bows in first place.

it has been buff -> nerf, so next we will see a buff if we follow that pattern. i would suggest to buff witch elf.
let witchbrew scale with str and other dmg modifiers such as taste of blood and flanking. give us the old tactic for 50% kiss trigger and make pierce armor a armor debuff without changing his tooltipp dmg.

Irony is dead, so is sense of humour
