Elementalist best end game weapon choice?
You know, if there was A best end-game weapon, we wouldn’t be using any of the others

Every weapon has it’s use.
For PvE if you reeeeeaaaaally want to save gold, then invest in staff. Other weapons matter less since you can just whip out the Lightning Hammer and FGS which have their own weapon strength so weapon grade matters less (under 100 stat difference) and the scepter/X are mainly just there to carry sigils.
“GW2’s PvE is almost as bad as the PvP.”
Define end game.
Every weapon does have its use, but also, a lot of it comes down to play style. I roll with staff probably 85% of the time and two daggers the other 15.
Yeah, it depends on your build. Wanna might stack? S/D. Wanna ninjitsu all over the place? D/D or D/F. Wanna sit back and field/combo? Staff.
Only “end-game” that there is a clear loser (at least to me) is staff in any pvp environment. Great in PvE, too low for PvP.
Personally staff is my do-it-all-one-army-man, barely ever do I use my Scepter or dagger for that matter (Anet should give us a new weapon, perhaps focus would fit us……lol).
Dungeons? Staff
PvE open world? Staff
WvW? Staff
sPvP? I dont play that anymore given how we are the most UP class i the game
Long distances in PvE like Orr where Points are perma contesed? D/D for mobility. Seriously Anet, was it really necessary to nerf RtL in PvE cuz of PvP?!
