I've had duelists report me for 14k Bear attacks o.o
I guess this is just a lazy attempt to get Wardens to use other ultimates besides the Bear. Real shame and completely unneeded nerf

you didnt read the other changes right? warden going to be best class in cyro and probably also in pve.
..but yeah.. let's shed some tears for the roleplay bear.
I don't know of a single PvPer that plays warden and slots bear OR has ever complained about it. Wait...hold on...I slot bear in PvP, but rarely.
More pissed off with arctic blast myself.... Yes the bear nerf sucks but i used arctic blast a lot and permafrost as my ult.
I need a new game to spend money on..

Ever since Sloads, making any proc that gets cried over as OP into a projectile seems to be the new nerf-meta.
Not sure how useful it is, though. PvE enemies don't dodge the projectile. In PvP, you have to be pretty alert in 1vX or large fights to spot it coming, so the balance is tipped mostly in 1v1 or small fights without too much stuff flying so it's spottable. As a need, "turn it into a projectile" seems like a lame way to fix something instead of adjusting the underlying mechanics.

... else @Arciris, i like the way you put your arguments. Good luck with your aim and if the situation gets unbearable... templars may not offer a bear but are on a good path atm.
The Bear is used in PvE because it parses the highest. It does around 20% of Magden damage.
Seriously why? Wardens are already the weakest class in the game and now you are nerfing that poor ***?

It's an awkward thing. The bear is (usually) the best ultimate for the Warden as DPS, and the class still under performs.
I don't know. I mean, the idea was, probably, to make other ultimate more viable, and that probably did it. But, the Warden needs help for DPS. At least the mag warden.
Likewise I don't know a single PVEr who ever said the game wasn't balanced or things needed to be nerfed, but I can find 100s of topics a day that are from PVP players complaining about 'x' being too OP... sooo yeah... just because the devs hit the wrong spot everytime, doesn't detract from the fact they do it to try an appease PVP playerbase.
Whether for the bear or anything else - the only reason they constantly mess with everything is because of the barrage of threads they face everyday from disgruntled PVP players.
