Are u so sure that problem of elementalist come only from nerf ?
I played elem a lot and i enjoy very mucg ( i am not a top player )
I rolled a guardian becouse i wanted to try a different class and i have to say that it is a different game.

If you use fresh air build for example you have to time perfectly 4 or 5 skill and switching attune correctly . It is very difficult (making it against a training golem is quite simple but making it against a player is different ) and in a “long” fight you have to costantly do the right thing . I play guardian , for example, with staff (2 attack) and GS.
The only “combination” i do on swapping is between staff 3 and 1 combo finisher of GS . as you can see it is really a lot easy to manage .

Playing quite often in mists with guardian now i don’t see any class OP : every player i stand up i feel that i can do it, i loose quite often becouse i find better players than me . When my team wins, with elementalist, i kill a lot but when my team is not good it is very difficult to kill, instead with guardian i feel i do something in every case .
How could anet reduce difficult of elementalist for making it more viable ? I think they should review elementalist mechanic to make it easier (for example making combo in the same attune).

Just gives us more health(i have a full zerk warrior, if I would land hundred blades on my elementalist I would kill her nearly three times…..), reduce our colldowns and push our DPS. You know what? NOTHING will happen, because ANet think Eles are fine(simply ignoring that EVERY SINGLE thread in the elementalist forum is QQ).

Ohhh and what I always wanted to know ANet: for what are our auto attacks(skill 1), only for fun right? DMG is a joke and you know that…

I’m not sure that warrior has better dps than elem…
Also to have a good dps he must be in melee range 150 or even closer. Elem can be in melee range of 270-300 and can kite bosses successfully.

Warrior most definitely has much better damage, even against a “zerker” ele & combine that with ele low hp/survivability, more so when zerker.
P.S. Warrior GS has more mobility then any ele weapon set & they can swap to rifle/bow at press of a button & swap weapons every four seconds.

Zerker ele does not need active tank. They kite bosses from 300 range most of the time.
I’m sure that warrior has to be in 130 range to do more damage than elementalist and be in a zerker armor. But in this case he’ll get agro and loose his life or DPS because of constant dodging and switching to a bow.

Main Elementalist damage spell has coefficient 1.4 in a second. No other warrior autoattack spells have such a big coefficient.

i understand your point but remain at the right distance from an enimy is very difficult and in tpvp or wvw usually u are not alone… and your enimy is not alone …. in my opinion it is too complex for medium player to get result …

/gasp

So that means ele’s are viable, right??
