The Elites...
I like to run Sylvan hound when doing dungeons when I’m going zerk ranger, but really it depends on if you Pve or WvW. Sylvan hound is a buddy who’ll heal you and can tank a few shots but won’t be very effective in WvW because of the channel time and the fact that people can just kite it easily. Take Root is good for the 3s invuln when you’re fighting a large group of mobs and will help you take them down faster, but once again, will be virtually useless in WvW because of AoEs, ricochets or being focused down.
Garbage at every profession 2015
I pretty much do WvW and started do fractuals. The odd PvE event but thats about it. SO they are all pretty useless in WvW then?
I say they’d be much better when it comes to smaller groups. If you’re in the zerg I’d switch to the mass invisbility or time warp, depending on what the commander needs.
