nerfs seems uneccessary and the buffs seem trivial to me, especially the spear ones.

i am dissappointed myself....
seriously... was anyone complaining about the paragon giving TOO MUCH protection?
from reading these forums you would come up with the opposite impression.

Looks like Motivation was seriously nerfed - all the Song/Aria/Ballad of Restoration was changed to heal LESS. Nothing was apparently improved in Motivation. Spear was tweaked, but is still a weak damage line - no change there except for slightly lower cast times. Spear attacks still aren't multi-target, or AoE, or any of the nices things that warriors have.
On the whole, Paragons got nerfed hard. First Energizing Finale went to +1 energy, now all the heals in Motivation are nerfed.
Compared to Rits - Spirit Light now heals for 180 on 5 energy, Preservation lasts for 90 seconds (up from 60 seconds). Flesh of my Flesh - reduced cast. Life - increased heal. Weapon of Warding - decreased cast. I can't find one heal skill for Paragons that got improved. For healing, Rit's just pulled even further ahead.

Wow. The decrease of weakness duration for wearing spear screws up any combo with plague sending/plague touch/plague signet, although the previous 20 second weakness did seem excessive for those not wanting to run a necro secondary or waste remedy signet.

Challenges. I like challenges. Right now we are stuck in a bad spot. Two straight nerfs and they hit us right in the face. Hard. Apparently the paragon just isnt what ANET wants it to be. We are hardly overpowered. We might even be called underpowered. And yet here comes the neft bat hitting us on the backswing since we arent even worthy of the forward swing. I play paragon because i like the class. I like it a lot I like what it represents and what it does. Frankly, to me it seems like ANET just doesnt care. Sure, they act like they are balancing the skills, they are changing some around. Yes, ANET might act like they care about the paragon but I dont think they do at all. They put a class in that does a whole bunch of things and now doesnt know where they want it to go. All I want from ANET is just a try, make Paragons as good as a warrior if not in the same way. Please just dont keep beating us with the nerf stick until we're hiding under the bed like Gwen when her dad comes back from an AA meeting.

To be honest, this is the first time ive ever complained about a nerf. This nerf was because of complete ignorance. PARAGONS NEEDED A BUFF. Motivation/Command, needed to get upgraded, to make their skills worth having. Instead they bring the healing down on motivation songs and chants.
Like i said ive never complained of a nerf, but Anet, you guys are dumbshits for NERFING paragons.
