#Add Debuffs to level 60 Elementor 1v1 Spells

Currently Psykeeper is just a better Elementor. It has similar AoE DPS, way more 1v1 DPS and the same debuffs + more tankiness due to shield usage. To give Elementor the more unique debuffer role and to also not make the level 60 Elementor spells useless anymore, here's my suggestion.

Remove the 25% elemental damage amp from level 40 mage spells. Instead put that 25% elemental damage amp on the level 60 Elementor spells. Additionally make their backswing animation.. or whatever its called.. the part that cant be reduced with DCT faster.
Optinally, but probably good too: Increase magic resistance reduction debuff from Elementor's electric shock from 20% to 25% - matching elemental debuffs for 1v1 classes, such that psykeepers benefit just as much from having an elementor on their team as 1v1 classes do.

A simple change that accomplishes many good things. Buffs Eles 1v1 dmg slightly, absolutely needed and asked for for months now. Nerfs psy, which is currently the most overtuned class - even after the current nerfs. Makes the level 60 ele spells not useless anymore. More unique role for elementor as debuffer.

Im aware that there are way more Psy players compared to Ele players, which will lead to this post being downvoted more than it is upvoted. I still believe that would be a simple (fast to implement) change, that improves the current class balance a lot.

thanks in advance!

Thank you for this you deserve a crown 👑 . Having the elemental debuff at a level 40 magician skill never made sense to me.

It's the only logical thing to do so (I also posted this under a Elementor related suggestion a few months ago btw pepewizard). Makes no sense that a Psykeeper can just fill an action slot with 1 mage spell and 4 spirit bombs and then completely takes over our job against bosses while having twice our DMG. I'd be also okay with leaving the debuffs on the mage spells and add even stronger debuffs on the 1on1 Ele skills.

Besides, I think we can all agree that Elementors need some love as well: Today they buffed classes which already performed better than Elementor in pvp before the patch while Ele has been completely left out or even nerfed a bit if you consider the higher mres of certain classes now. There are more issues with Eles but this is a discussion for another suggestion I guess.. catface

Playing ele as my main since day one here. I absolutely second this. 70's aoe already had debuff added to them, which was a nice change. Right now the 1v1 spells are useless because of the weird casting animation time. That would be the first thing to solve. And shifting the debuffs from lvl 40 to lvl 60 spells is also a good idea, well done !

I agree, must reduce the DPS of the skills and the debuffs ideas sound great! Not makes sense that magician skills have better DPS than Elementor.
