I'm surprised to see this much negativity from such a patch. From a competitive perspective in WvW, we're in dire need of dramatic shifts in the metagame that will allow for new classes and builds to see gameplay that hadn't previously. I like a lot of these changes, although I do wish the vindicator nerfs were a little softer. Thanks for the patch CMC, and congrats to Trig for the new balance team position. 🙂

This is a bad balance patch for WvW. Necromancer and chronomancer do not need buffs or changes this significant without adjustment of the rest of their kit. Revenant needs to be nerfed as it is outperforming almost everything. Winds of Disenchantment continues to be one of the most oppressive mechanics ever introduced, please remove it from the game and rework the elite into something else or move the boon rip to the rest of the spellbreaker's kit. Pretty big disappointment after the success of the last patch. You should really try to persist in the toning down of the power level of the strongest builds for WvW and continue to try and slow the game down. This is very bad. Just to be specific, the last patch was VERY good. The previous balance patch made almost entirely correct moves in the correct direction. This is a TERRIBLE patch. It feels completely disconnected from the problems facing the game modes.
