Guild Wars 2

Not sure, if i’d try to kill yes, i’d be dependent since i’m running magi but with my 5 sources of reflect, the stability and the crazy heals i feel like in many situations my team is dependant on me, even if they don’t know at the moment.

As for the full offensive ele the only option right now is a well organized team or really bad opponents. So in general, yes, the class feels dependent, i’m expecting some major scepter rework, dreaming is free.

You can be usefull if you rotate well in teamfights and ppl stop to force you in a bunkerroll.The problem in my opinion is just everyone means its totaly great to isolate you, because you can surive all without pressure(like with clerics or celestial). This times has changed, no more facetank a rev or thief. Pay attention to -1 and all is fine.

I run with menders and i have no problems, not against proleague players or casusal, i try to pick comfortable matchups, try to fit in with my role and make the way free for others. The mix of projectile-hate, cc (love air 5 on focus to break shields) and support is great. I dont need a babysitter against different classes, without a very good rev.

In my opinion the bigger problem is the knowledge of matchups and rotations so far, beside the other problematic of not much vaible other builds.

yes but on my warhorn build i can take out a dh which is weird, otherwise they suck right now bad.

Well if you are going for a aurashare healbot build, then ofc you are depending on your team cause it is a support build you know.
As for S/F build, not quite. I think topic starter confuses 2 things. Being able to CARRY a team and being dependent on a team. No you cannot carry your team if they are bad, even if you play like a god (other classes can). And no you are not dependent on the team if they are atleas half decent. Just do your stuff.
Atm eles are in a bad state for spvp, but it doesnt have to do anything with being dependent on your team, its more of a eles usefullness in spvp. Besides if you get a decent team you can get carried hard and might think its all about “depending”.
