Guild Wars 2

Since we’re basically forced to spec highly in Arcane anyway, Anet really needs to look at these traits. They’re both incredibly weak compared to the minor traits of other classes at the same tiers.

they recently officialy announced that they know that lingering elements is bugged since few days release, so maybe in next few months there will be fix

Just to let you know, Lingering Elements is not bugged. It was disabled in a patch soon after release, along with attunement delays being made longer. Apparently, though the trait was made to support constant attunement rotation play style (at the short attunement delay timings back then), the “new” dev command decided it did not want that play style to be viable. They admitted to breaking the trait, and vowed to replace it in the future. We’re still waiting a year later for that replacement.

Don’t get your hopes up. Maybe we’ll see a better day for ele traits in year 2015 or so.

well, how about this: remove all the 15 point traits from the elemental lines, combine them into one trait, and make that new trait the 15 point arcana trait. and then make new traits for the 15 pointers in the all 4 of the elemental trait lines.

and give us some traits to buff our summons!

yeah, ele traits really are weak compared to other classes. i mean really. ele gets 25-point traits that match other classes’ 10-point traits… meaning of course, that adept level other classes get access to traits that ele’s have to be grandmaster to get. example? +10% damage when endurance is full. ele: 25 point earth. ranger: 10 point skirmish.

Arcane Precision should be 50% chance on crit, or maybe 60% like Weak Spot.

Lingering Elements isn’t bugged. It works. It’s just lame. Soothing Mists refreshes the duration on itself for 5 seconds after you leave Water.

It isn’t bugged when 2 conditions are met at the same time:

• you play something like 10/0/0/30/30
• you consider attunement bonuses as only adept minor traits

I think lingering elements does not even work with arcane precision muhahahahahahahaahahahaha

(never tested though)
