it would have been enough to just take addle from the ww trigger-list leaving Ruin lll as it is. That would have been resulted in a slight burst nerf while we actually could use addle in its intended function as a def-utility. Would had been way easier than this pot-adjustments... but well we will see how this will work out.

Summoner
We made adjustments to decrease the potency of their area of effect and single target attacks. Because summoners are able to continuously damage over time, and this being one of the main aspects, we believe they will continue to perform well in content that require a lot of movement.

out of the live letter summary.... this statement can't be for real... our dots doesn't have any kind of advantage compared to other cls. not anymore. we lost our 3rd dot, the remaining ones got pot adjustments several times, bane got a drop-off effect, we can't extend their duration anymore cause of the con adjust and shadow flare got a salty long cd which made it way less flexible. how can that still be called "one of the main aspects" of this cls... even if f.e. Brds have two dots as well with an even easier way for 100% uptime or Sam who has a 1 minute dot which can be buffed by themselves as well? so u wanna give us back M2 and take off the dropdown from bane again?... but in the current situation this is just flat & laughable to point on our dots... #lameexplaination #facepalm

Sorry but this argument is pure bullshit and absolutely doesn't fit any kind of their actions to this cls since the early HW when all the buff burst, nerf dots BS started : /
