I'd say the EoE nerf was my worst. I realise it was being abused by griefers in AB but it has now lost its 'edge'. Excuse the pun.

Incoming - Perfect example of destroying a skill. All they had to do was make sure that shout effect couldn't be reapplied for a short time but noooooo they had to go and completely mangle it beyond the point of being a useful NON-ELITE skill.
Avatar of Grenth - Brilliant for enchant removal when facing a bunch of overprotective players (E/D comes to mind), now the duration/recharge makes baby jesus cry ;_;

Just meant yet another useless dervish elite because anet can't balance a skill. |
I think its more of a problem in skill creation department. The whole idea of godforms is retarded.

So yeah, I guess the norn skills have effectively rendered all other skills in the game useless, and yeah, I suppose that's the worst and most damaging nerf ever.
EDIT: Aera, I'm PvE, and my main complaint besides the silly PvE skills was the nerf of the mesmer energy denial skills. Stereotyping ftl.
high sunspear = deserve the overpoweredness

And hey, it still kills nowadays and people still uses it, so there is no reason for you to complain. |
Wait, that sounds familiar... *coughSoulReapingtimercough*

I still see plenty of sins in AB and arenas and alwasy have. Maybe you should jump on the ass caster builds, theres a build you dont have to think of on your own and you can enjoy pwning people until it gets nerfed then you can come on here and complain again until another build is made up for you to use, instead of actually trying to make a good build yourself. AoD is a better shadowstep than SP imo, learn to play a sin before complaining all the instagib/unballanced builds get nerfed.
on topic I didnt like the LoD nerf but I can see why, I woulda preferred a drop in healing rather than cast time though. |
I rarely play sin. I'm not complaining, I've made plenty of good builds (trust me on this).
Other than that, I can't really reply because you misunderstood my post so horribly that the rest of what you said is so hilariously misinformed and wrong I can do nothing more than laugh at you.
Worst is such a...ambiguous term, so open to personal tastes. There are quite a few that stand out and for different reasons at different times. For skill nerfs...
Gale
The entire Inspiration line and OoB to hamstring Boon Prots
Ether Renewal
Protective Bond
I really hated removing armor swapping from pvp even though I 100% agree with the balance principle of it. I deleted 5 pve chars within the next few days as a result.
I was hit by the change in damage reduction on shields to only physical damage as I had quite a solid collection of dual modded shields but the inscription system that later came killed them just as much.
Nothing game killing though imo, there are still many things that need nerfs that don't get them. Conversely there are a plethora of skills deserving of buffs or at least rebalancing that just wont get them.

I can't remember bad skill nerfs.
Elementalist get good buffs.
Other professions getting nerfs and elementalists getting buffs it's good. Since I favor the elementalist profession.
Isn't that great? Yay! XD
(Now the Karma will punish me for this with a huge nerf to eles in the next skill update, XDDD)
Nah. I never care about skill nerfs.
Anytime I enter an outpost, I think "What I'm goin to need?" I see the elites, pick the one that most fits the place, and then pick the rest of the skills based on that.
I've also beate both Prophecies and Factions with the very same build, so in PvE skill nerfs only hurt farmers, and in PvP only hurt lazy build-clingers that do not like tho change builds.
