Nerfed
-Downgrading the particulars of a list or set of rules to bring balance. In guild wars, usually done when a good combo is abused in pvp. They nerf it to make things more..interesting?
Wish they would nerf touchrangers.

Yes, max with junk mods.
What happened to tactics?
[[Watch Yourself] got killed (1-3 hits now only), mostly due to abuse by paragons, so the only real useful skill in it is Heal Sig, and Lion's Comfort functions a bit better, or don't worry about a self-heal as a warrior (or have better ones in your own primary if you're not a primary warrior).
Nerfed is a term for something that is made less effecitive (like a bat vs a nerf bat). Basicly, it's something that gets taken down in effectiveness. Usually, it's got a negative connotation where it's taken down to uselessness.
Touch Rangers have a counter... not sure what it was, but they did get nerfed a bit to be balanced.

yeah, their counter is kd. But when you are only one doing it, and being swarmed by an ENTIRE TEAM of touchies, well...

Oh, I have it. And used it, too. However, the touchies usually swarm one person. And with a high expertise, they can spam their touch skills. It works when you are fighting only one touch ranger, for the most part. But the total # of touches you ignore isn't high enough, and the recharge is too long to last very long against a group of em.

Energy denial.
Doesn't blindness effect touch skills too?

Soooooo, Whats a nerf herder again?
A guy who raises nerfs to be used in Nerf toys and that 'visio-elastic memory foam' that is so popular today (25 years ago we called that stuff Nerf).
