I'm not extremely salty about the nerf to Sunsingers, I'm just disappointed to see a subclass that wasn't even "out performing other classes" being nerfed pretty badly.
VF + Firebolts pre-nerf was a bit unfair in PVP, however, this subclass is now almost useless in PVE too. Sure, VF + Firebolts made "frustrating encounters", but you know what else is frustrating? Having 1 usable grenade, and a super which consists of two abilities on a shorter cool down.
Personally, I think Radiance should grant the pre-patch effects of VF when active, or other support perks, such as increased recovery for nearby allies, when Radiance is active. Also, I am aware that Sunsinger is meant to be a support role, yet the only perks which seem to benefit teams are Fireborn and Song of Flame (which isn't much use in end game content, in my opinion) Even as a support role, Sunsingers feel pretty useless in endgame content, even with Self res.

if you look at the graph that was released explaining the nerf to gunslingers and bladedancers, The sunsingers were at the bottom above defenders. People cried about them, even though they were not good already, so they nerfed them. It really is dissapointing.
