So we’ve got the previews for the guardian, mesmer, and necro. Been a while since Anet has revealed the remaining ones. Just want Anet to hurry up . So far, I think mesmer has the best looking elite spec. What do y’all think?
Yeah Chronomancer is great. But the other 2 are also good. I am really excited in the rest and I just hope that ele spec will not get that stupid warhorn.
I hope ele does. To me it sounds more interesting than a sword and fits the tempest name better
Op, yes chrono sounds very interesting, but reaper has got my interest the most
But ele really needs a new good main-hand weapon. Our off-hands works pretty well. Also we don’t have any melee weapon unlike all other classes (Engis are getting hammer right?) So please give us sword (Praying to the Six, oh… I mean Anet)
Looking forward to in order from more excited to least excited (based on datamined info as well)
1) Warrior
2)Engineer
3)Thief
4)Revenant
5) Ranger
6)Elementalist
^Unless druid has op traits nobody will run it haha. Looking for spec for war and engi. Revenant seems to be kinda..underpowered and poorly designed.
War might be capable of conjuring greataxe from f2.
well.. engi and war and thief are the ones i look forward to. Thief and war mostly cause im really curios what they gonna do with them..specially war who´s spec seems to be called berserker if the placeholder image they datamined can be trusted. Engi cause its my main and favourite class. As for the rest…yeh… rev is too restricting for me to play it anyways, ele is just not my thing though i do respect a good ele and ranger…ehhh if it gets all these longbow #4 skill spammers out of my hair then im glad
If Anet will follow this order as they did(https://www.guildwars2.com/en/the-game/professions/) then it will be this:
1. Ranger
2. Elementalist
3. Warrior
4. Thief
5. Engineer
I am really excited for Ele and Engi because they are my favorites. I also have an interest in Ranger and Thief spec s. Not so many interest in War though.
between it being my main, and the images that have been mined, I’m pretty interested in Thief. the idea of a melee staff on the thief interests me, and I’d like to see what sort of class mechanic we’re getting.
so far, Chronomancer and Reaper are looking nice, less interested in the Dragonhunter.
Double warhorn ele op.
i don’t know how people can pre-order when there’s still so little info available.
Time Marches On is my favourite elite specialisation so far. Reaper seems like it’ll be fun to mess with and make builds for and Dragon Hunter is easily the one I have least interest in.
I have a lot of hopes for druid at this point and every day I don’t hear more info about it the more impossible my demands get. At this point I’m expecting staff to be a condi/support/control/melee weapon
This my theory,
Again just a theory of mine,
But it seem like the Elite Specs are modeled after Diablo 1-3 classes?
This not a far fetched theory, since Arena Net originated from the staff that created Diablo 2 and Early World of Warcraft(pre 2004)..
So there is a legit connection there. They fans of their own work I would assume.
So makes the most sense for this theory.
*Thief Staff = Diablo Monk
———————-
*Guardian Longbow = Demon Hunter
————————
*Ranger staff = Druid
———————-
*Warrior (assume torch) = Barbarian
———————
*Elementalist Warhorn = Wizard
———————
*Necromancer Greatsword = Necromancer
———————
*Engineer Hammer = Warrior
———————-
*Revenant Shield = Witch Doctor
————————
*Mesmer Shield = I say this comes from GW1 utopia instead
But what’s your thoughts on this theory?
I think staff would be a better 2-hands melee weapon for elementalists.
I think it’s an interesting connection and I can see why they’d use something like Diablo as inspiration for the first set of elites.
I’m just not sold they will use staff on 2 professions. Same with shield.
Admittedly I wont complain if Revenant gets shield. I do like a good shield class…

Ranger’s most likely next….whenever he finally arrives.
It’s pretty annoying they announce all kinds of things instead of these specializations.
Next week reveal: new Colored HoT Dyes… wait another week. ..
Good because I am unhappy with the greens we currently have!

This makes absolutely no sense in any language ever written
I’m sure they’ll announce these when they have the designs finished.
