Guild Wars 2

Just my opinion, but in the high tiers I seem to notice games are much harder not having these two classes on your team vs a team that does have them. Ele is such good team support and thief really cant be pressured on the map anymore except by another thief. Post your thoughts.

Not really. Ele comps can easely be outrotated and outplayed by playing sides and ignoring huge team fights.

Thief is still subpar compared to rev even afer nerfs and with the amount of Dhs thief is not even that good.

Sure you can ignore teamfights, but then the thief is really going to shine in those small skirmishes. Hence why I think the combo is so strong.

But DH doesn’t pressure the thief, they can sit on a cap yeah, but then the thief just goes elsewhere.

I think every team needs at least 1 Druid, Elementalist, Necro and Thief.

Let’s see how the pro league pans out. I honestly still think thief is 1 step away from must have.

Ele on the other hand is definitely a must have still. They are the premier on point support class IMHO and open a team up to take revs/necros which are the classes that win team fights to create a snowball

The games are harder but not impossible. If you’re on point with rotations and there aren’t any smart people who decide to give up because “we don’t have an ele” and “you’re playing necro” then you’ll probably win.
