Hello, maybe this has been touched before, i dunno.
I have played an elementalist from day one, about 11 months ago. Im leveling an engineer right now, because out of all the other classes, is the only one that has that sort of “jack of al trades” feel that the ele has.
The thing is, cooldown tracking between all the “weapon sets” on the engi is easy, cause kits dont have a cooldown and switching doesnt punish you at all if some ability you wanted to use on that set was on cooldown. Totally different things with elementalist atunemments: if you atune too early, you can get stuck on an atunement that maybe was only worth for the ability you cant use in that moment.
So, originally i wanted to open this thread to ask for a way for us elementalist to keep better track of our cooldowns: Something that allow us to see the cooldowns on an atunement without actually changing to that atunemment or getting any benefits from it, like some sort of ability lock out that still lets us check that atunement even tough we cant use it.
Having said that, i would like to know how cooldown tracking works on the overall desing of the classes. Since engineer is the onlyone who can change between weaponsets with a minimal cooldown, do the developers want this to be like that cause of balance between classes? Like…been able to see our cooldowns per atunement on the elementalist would give us some sort of “unfair advantage”?
I would like to know the comunity´s opinion on cooldown tracking between clases.
Sorry for my english, not my mother tongue.
