How Would You NERF Ursan?
Fried Tech
First off, please do not turn this into a arguement about Ursan Blessing being imbalanced.
Over the past couple of months I have seen thread after thread of people ranting and raving against UB. The community is obviously split between the ones who love and those who hate it. One thing that I have not seen is a thread suggesting possible nerfs to the skill.
So, here it is.
If you were to NERF Ursan how would you do it, without totally destroying the skill.
I think changing the energy degen from -2 to -4 would be a nice nerf. If nothing else, this would slow down UB groups because they would have to wait for the skill to recharge, instead of just steamrolling through an area. It might also make some people think twice about using it because when UB drops your energy is at 0, and you don't want that to happen when you are in the middle of battle.
If there is already a thread about this floating around I appolagize.

The only change it needs is to ingore profession, by disabling primary attribute and armor bonuses under its effect.
There's another thread about that.
Your suggestion will only make the Elementalist and Necromancer ursans the best choice.

a BIP in the team and the nerf is no more :P
As far as I can tell the -2energy is immutable, so neither -1/+1 energy properties or skill effects do not change it.
Squishy ftw
- make the skills do less damage or stop them from ignoring armor(skill 1)
- increase recharge, a lot
- make that first skill a melee attack that strikes twice, so it can be blocked, missed, blinded

Easy. The reason Ursan is broken is because it synergizes with itself. It synergizes with itself through the damage mitigation from the knockdowns: the more ursans in the team, the more time the enemies spend on their collective butts, and the less damage the team takes.
Hence, Ursan should be nerfed by making the AoE knockdown into a single-target knockdown.
That's all it takes. Self-synergy gone, Ursanway dead, but Ursan still useful.

OMG DON'T NERF URSAN WTF URSAN PWNS!!
lol jk.
taking away the energy gain from attacking would be a decent way, heals and all that only heal for 60% of what they would normally would be a decent way to slow groups down without killing the skill.
don't let the first skill do less damage, but make it so it can be blocked.
just a couple of ideas, imo its just a matter of time before ursan does get smacked with the nerf bat.
its just a question of how badly it will be hit.
