Guild Wars 2

I’ve played ele for a while now, I’ve got D/D down to muscle memory. Is it just me though or does it feel like the end of Burning Speed should be a blast finisher or leap finisher instead of a fire combo field? I dunno, it just doesn’t seem to fit it. It doesn’t leave a “field” behind for the duration. Just seems like it should be blast or leap to me. Thoughts?

I’ve thought it could be fun to have a group composed of four characters of some class that can do high damage at maximum range with a projectile finisher, and a d/d elementalist. The elementalist would burning speed a line in front of the shooters, and they would fire burning shots at a distant target (maybe a zerg they’re trying to disrupt). So I kind of like that you can lay down a line like that… but then again, one could achieve the same effect with Ring of Fire.

Also, it does feel like a leap finisher. So I see where you’re coming from.

One of my secret wishes due to latency which I can do nothing to improve:

Burning Speed becomes a leap gap closer/creator similar to guardian greatsword leap.

Heck remove the fire field if you have to or remove the leap finisher from Magnetic Grasp, maybe 5% of Ele’s are fast enough to earth dodge back on the burning speed trail for some might stacks and another 5% compress the trail to maximise the burn ticks.

Those of us with higher latency already work our arses off playing D/D a little help wouldn’t go amiss (miss lol like most of my skills).
