Will there be HA build nerfs or should I give in and roll the one button meta? Inquiring minds want to know.

My quick skimming saw these nerfs/changes:

Buffs and Debuffs

Empower: Reduced this bonus to 70%, down from 80%.

Developer Comment:


Since we've started working on Heavy Attack build viability in the past year, we've seen a massive surge in their use, which is absolutely phenomenal for seeing more players being able to participate in end-game content at a much more digestible pace. While we're happy to see these builds being ran, we're seeing these builds inch a little too close to some of the high end builds with how much more simplified they are, and in some rare cases, they're outperforming a standard build. We're cutting down the damage bonus here ever so slightly in hopes that when you have Empower with a bunch of other Heavy Attack bonus sets, the numbers are still nice and juicy, but not as close to a full-on Light Attack build.

Storm Master:

This set’s bonus damage with Light and Heavy Attacks now only works against monsters.
Reduced the duration of the bonus to 8 seconds, down from 20 seconds.
Reduced the cooldown to 5 seconds, down from 10.

Thanks.

Honestly, looks like that might be a reasonable amount of nerf. Certainly, it is not too much. They could take 30% or so away and it would not be too much. This looks like a good bit less of a nerf than that. I'll give it a try on PTS and see what I think. Perhaps the top of half the raid parses will not be one button builds using base dungeon sets now.

@Fata1moose
Interesting idea. It would be very important to gain lots of rapport with Naryu. If you managed to get her rapport below 100, you might be subject to random assassin attacks, anytime using a wayshrine or going through a door or other transition that loads a new location....
