when this heal heals 70% from a 10k hp pool than this is still only a 7k heal

hp pool means absolutely nothing

If you heal 8000 HP on an ele you heal 80% of its health pool
If you heal 8000 HP on a warrior you heal 40%.

I’d like to see warrior buffed to have 10.000 base HP so he could heal 80% also

GW2 balance:
A PvE player is supposed to avoid a 1-2 second 1 shotting aoe.
A WWW player is considered uncapable of avoiding a 5,75 second aoe for half his health.

As people have said above me, lowest HP in the game = a lot higher looking heal than it really is.

I’m more or less fine with eles… But I think heal/regen spam in anyway is stupid. Eles being the lowest offender since low HP pools without access to evade spams or invis like other classes is fine.

But then you get things like Ranger, Engie, SA thief which IMO are easier and can almost fill the same role.

Ele was the meta bruiser build for 8 months (until they nerfed sig of resto and cleansing water).

This new generation if players are going “wow ele is viable now” but many of us are more than familiar with an eles potential to fill this role.

It’s not head and shoulders above the rest, due to power creep across the board.. However there’s no reason not to run an ele in a comp now.

I 100% AGREE… as long as wars get the sustain eles have. Imagine a war hard to kill as a gaurd but with alot more dps…someday.

That’s nonsense. They must have been mentally injured to be beaten, all 3 of them at the same time, by a D/D ele. Moreover, until thieves and warriors have the predominance, elementalists are not goig to be viable at all (speaking from an objective perspective).

I’ve met some Eles in sPvP that would 1v1 even Hambows with relative ease.

I’m not sure what it is specifically but some Ele builds hvae INSANE sustain, more so than even Healing Signet + Adrenal Healing. Tbh it feels a bit broken at times. I don’t think it’s ok for a class to be constantly rolling in boons, dealing good Power and Condi damage at the same time, and then being able to heal up to full every 14 seconds or so.

At least eles have to be fighting to get their heals. Signet ticks only when you use skills. Regeneration needs either cantrip use or water attuning. Water dodge works only when in combat and has a 10s icd. Only passive is the small healing when in water attunement.

Warrior in comparison is all passive. Sure adren health needs some adrenaline but never seen a warrior caring much about the uptime. Healing signet speaks for itself and 3k armor compared to 2400 cele ele too.

I wouldn’t say FOTM but I have seen quite a few more Eles that usual in SoloQ and some really tough ones too. It’s nice to see them back in the game. The amount of sustain they can bring is phenomenal. If only they knew how close they came to killing me before calling my warrior so OP.

Be careful what you wish for, Anet might just give it to you “HoT”
