Actually, even before the patch, it was a lot easier to hit a mob 50+ levels above your own with ele than with afflies. And even if the affly hit, the link would only last a second and not do much, while an ele spell would still do most of it's damage.

The only way in which affly could be considered overpowered, is in that it was possible (with a 5% chance, but still possible) to land a lvl 1 fear on a level 250 opponent, without getting a link but still removing them from battle for several seconds as the fear effect lingered without a link. That's it. In every other aspect, afflies were already underpowered compared to ele; harder to hit with and less advantage when you did hit.

I know one, but that doesn't change the point.

In honesty, we have seen quite a bit of that every time there's been a world-altering event.
