Guild Wars 2

Elementalists in competitive PvP were killed today, officially. The QQ of a million (being generous as I doubt that many PvP) players who couldn’t crack DS before Condi bombing the poor little Eles has led to this.

Celestial Amulet – Gone. Out best amulet.
Soldier Amulet – Gone. Our fallback.
Diamond Skin – Obliterated, RIP.
Sigil of Energy – Finished, cya evasive arcana.

The bunker meta created with introduction of the HoT elite specs has finally done what the masses could not, it’s killed Eles. But hey, they’re buffing scepter right, right? I’ll not hold my breath for the uber fresh air nuking Ele to return as thieves will be 1 shotting the super squishy, low hp Elementalists right out of PvP.

I’ll be on my thief, watch your backs gang.

actually most top players are saying Diamond Skin will actually be a buff in the Circumstances on the next Meta, it offers More to a Proffession with less sustain then the Current Elementalist does have.

Cele Amulet will defintly be a blow to the proffession though, however FUll Support with Magis or something is always a option, either way… Prolly best to wait it out, nobody really knows what will happen when the full Patch list is released.

DS is worthless now, “top players” won’t use it.

Cele loss kills off any tanky ele builds that would’ve used earth it’s game over unless you all heal or all dps.

you’re just going to have to accept this and move on.

I kinda feel like I should be paid a dime for every one of these kind of posts I’ve read since launch. I’d be a millionaire by now.

75% threshold does open solutions for some condition builds.

75% threshold lets it start to work vs non condition dmg builds for things like chill fear cripple etc.. the non dmg condition effects. DS should be more usefully over all then just that one moment of comply shut down of an highly specialized build.
