and still... sf not nerfed...

[Pro]v[etheus]

SF may not be nerfed with the update but GW is lol, constant err13 for me at the moment and many others :(

[SK]

Apparently the errors are fixed now.

SF shouldn't really be altered in any way. It needs to be high damage as its an elite, it needs long burn times in order for SF to work in the first place. The only thing I can see them doing is altering Glowing Gaze to receive less energy.

[Pro]v[etheus]

I can't see that lowering the energy gain on Glowing Gaze would be anything to be concerned about as Fire Attune. gives a fair chunck back. You may need to wait slightly longer to recast certain spells but im not overly concerned.

[SK]

Well with SF then GG thats 20 energy used and 10 energy returned at 16 fire. That's excluding Fire Attunement gain. This makes spamming fairly easy to do. Rather than remove the damage cause by SF they will make it less spammable.

[Pro]v[etheus]

I'd just replace RI with SF then with my nuker and echo it. If the recharge times are anything like immolate then it would still be very spammable doing it that way.

[Ignatz Karko]

yup, make it less spammable, less damage(I would change the area of effect, it's way too big for pvp)

sf is cool in pve, but it just ruins pvp
like every idiot in heroes ascent and a lot of idiots in gvg run it...
quite hard to find an anti build because they don't really need enchantments or wards, or whatever(diversion should work good, too)

[SK]

Just found this (http://gw.gamewikis.org/wiki/Build:E/any_Searing_Flames_Elementalist) on GuildWiki. Funnily enough its the exact same build I have been using. The only difference is my two enchantment spells are the other way around :p
Guess it's not exactly the most complicated build in the world.

[Pro]v[etheus]

I use the same build with 1 of my ele heros but swapped MS for just Meteor, i've also tried it myself and it is rather effective.

[Ignatz Karko]

been using that build for ages... pvp version is with mantra of flames, glyph of sacriphice(instead of lesser energy)(I use 2 meteor shower sf eles and 1 with meteor for "fast" interrupt)
