Guild Wars 2

What legitimate PvP build/class do you think is the 3rd most mobile?

I’m assuming windborne dagger or zephyr’s boon. You would probably want one of those on D/D if you actually cared about mobility.

If a mesmer used mass invis they might or they might not escape. Stealth is a guessing game. Not sure the point there.

Not sure your point on guardians or necros… Good necros can be a challenge. Guardians generally not.

I’m not having problems being caught by rangers or engies.

XvsX elementalist is excellent on pretty much any set. wth…

So if boon duration changed ele being the 3rd mobile profession but I get 100% swiftness uptime by putting 4 points in air is your argument flawed? That is the case

Anyway continue to complain about elementalist we aren’t with you on this one.

So your argument is:

you can waste an elite 4 traits, your heal and long CD to get mobility so when you get in fighting ramge your opponent can kill you easily unless you outplay it by a lot…

I give up….

This is not a balance discussion.

ele is not class for pvp. thats it. he is completly unplayable in competetive pvp. I played him for 120+ arena matches, and i defeated only injured or noob players. he is 1 trick ponny = 80iq required. every class can defeat him 1v1 without any problem. 90% oh his talents are crap without use in pvp. If u want to play pvp, play what is op atm. thats how mmo works. howgh

120 matches, you sure are an expert.

You sir are speaking out of you kitten hole else is part of soloq and tpvp meta now. The only thing keeping ele in check are necros.

The fact that you think picking traits means you don’t want a discussion but agreement. I don’t take aeromancer’s alacrity because it gives me permanent swiftness that is a side effect. I disagree with your assessment that ele is weak because it isn’t the most mobile profession. Mesmer isn’t mobile but you don’t consider that a weakness of the Mesmer. The mesmers main Dps can be completely kited. A Mesmer can’t scare anyone that want to leave a fight on any build unless they are full zerker that is the only way you can force people to fight you as Mesmer.

You don’t scrutinize the other classes you think are better for the same things you penalize elementalist for. It’s like your in awe of mesmers and thieves and don’t see their weaknesses.

The basis of this “balance discussion” is roaming and dueling anyway. It’s basically let’s all talk about anecdotal evidence and see if we agree or disagree. It then assumes we are all the same skill level, our opponents are the same level, about something the game isn’t balanced around.

I got 140ish tourney wins with ele so far. Also run engi, war, guardian, necro, thief. Gonna try mesmer and ranger next.

But I’m best with my elementalist. took me 1400 hours to master it and it seems that you still have alot to learn… I can 1v3 and win with my elementalist. I can 1v2 with thief and warrior. Guardian can survive 1v2’s for quite a while but never beat ’m. Necromancer is kinda strange. Sometimes when you get everything off you can burst down people in a couple hits and completely turn it around and other times you get stun-locked and killed in no time.

Elementalist is just better because it has decent sustain and is good as a hybrid.
