![]() ![]() When players see a Druid go into CA Kit, it puts a red target on the Druid's head to "go burst and kill it now" because it has no offensive pressure and it has very little kiting ability. The skills are too slow, they take too long to channel, and the kit has no evades or blocks or anything like that in the way Conjure Earth Shield does or a Firebrand's support kits. Upon this, when a Druid enters CA Kit, they become insanely prone to taking damage. Same problem here: If you can't land heals on your party, how are you going to land condis on opponents? And upon this, because they are aimed skills, you have to choose between trying to aim to heal party members or aiming to deal damage to opponents? Again, this is just clunky ineffective design and does nothing to address the actual problems CA Kit has, mainly with the skills being too difficult to land on teammates or opponents in competitive modes. Now we're talking about the condi damage being added to CA Kit. Point being: It is highly unrealistic to support players with CA Kit because it is highly unrealistic to be able to reliably land the heals & cleanse on them. They don't stand still for you to reliably land any of these aimed skills with big channel times. But in pvp, players are moving all over the place. In pve, players will stand still while doing DPS rotations so the Druid can aim the CA Kit on a party stack. The CA Kit skills must be aimed with big channels. Things like Tempest and Core Guard use skills that immediately with no cast time or requirement to aim, just effect everyone in a massive radius. Not only is the base heal output terrible even with heal stats, but the primary problem is that they are too slow and must be aimed. On paper, even the choice of Grace Of The Land doing Alacrity, makes the untrained eye feel like "Druid Support will be viable!"ĬA Kit skills are null, they don't work at all. On paper, the Druid condi buffs for CA Kit that are replacing Ancient Seeds, looks like it'll be a buff. Eclipse needs to be reverted back into Ancient Seeds.
