Sand Savant needs to go

[Math.5123]

This trait makes the game un-fun for anyone not playing Scourge.

Both of those Scourges have the Sand Savant trait equiped, no idea what you're talking about. The pulsing red aoe's of death only comes from Scourge.

It's a terrible trait in every gamemode.

 

Sucks in PVE, unfun in PVP/WVW.

[Recursivision.2367]

In PvP it's rather un-fun to fight against, but in WvW it's just an unbalanceable mess. I don't think it's possible for it to be balanced in both 1v1 and when hitting a full 10 targets. Not to mention the other GM's see zero use in either of these modes due to the combination of radius increase, CD reduction, and target cap increase being way too good to pass up. Not saying that it needs a nerf without some compensation -- but it does seem like the central issue with scourge balance.

One doesn't. There's a small enemy shade behind the pillar and another on point. Then again, there might have been three Scourges.

That's not a shade, it's a Sand Swell enter portal.
