Or maybe just one conjure weapon that attunes to the others. Like a new elite that goes to bow once in water, axe once in fire, shield once in earth and hammer once in air. I don’t know, but I hate how I got no reason to use these thing because the idea is so great.
Also charges should be done away with and weapons get a flat cooldown.

I don’t think conjured weapons will be worth a kitten until they stop locking you out of your other attunements, as the current class design is critically dependent on attunement switching.

The best fix I can think of is that conjured weapon skills replace the skills of their relevant element, and allow you to switch attunements as usual.

ie: conjure fiery GS replaces your fire skills only, but you can still switch to water, earth and back to fire.

downed state is bad for PVP

What i will suggest is take out the using charge for the caster, then you can use your swap weapon icon to stow your conjure weapon for your original skills. It will still expire but you can swap between conjure weapon and attunement skills before weapon expire.

Great minds think alike what do you want me to tell you?

Having them stowed would work too. The point is I personally have no incentive to carry one of these. Cantrips shield another blast all work hand in hand with the way I play. The elite is the only one where maybe something could be done and I would probably use it.

Lightning hammer without the charges might take a slot too the extra cc would be great.

I use the frost bow pretty regularly in WvW with my staff set up. Mostly just for the aoe (skill 4), following my staff 5. Also, bow 5 is a great imobilize.

staff 5 + conjure frost bow + bow 4 + switch back to staff. Conjuring the bow adds an extra step but it’s all pretty seemless.

If you want more utility from conjure weapons, i would suggest giving each weapon at least one combo field or finisher skill.
