This suggestion would require an entire rebuilding of the elementalist class and therefore is as likely to happen as hell freezing over.

But hey, whatever.

So instead of the “kittenty attunement swapping mechanic”™ the elementalist would be the only class where skills are NOT tied to weapons. They’d have two weapon slots and the weapons would just give boni to the skills depending on the weapon.

This would mean the elementalist chooses the 10 skills for both weapon slots from all the current weapon skills which need to be rebalanced to get rid of all the ridiculously long recharges that were forced on the player because of the “kittenty attunement swapping mechanic”™.

Conjures need to be entirely changed though or removed.

This suggestion was sparked by this thread

What about? No

i’ve just leveled my new ele to lv80 and i am in love with him. Attunement dance is the only reason i like ele.

I’m pretty sure most people play ele BECAUSE of attunement swapping. It’s dynamic and fun. If you don’t enjoy it, just don’t play an elementalist.

Attunement swapping requires some getting used to, but in the end it is the one thing that makes this class interesting!!

How about they just give us missile launchers as well.

Or even less probable: how about they give us PvE content!? But then I’d kind of drifting out of the subject

No thanks, this is a rather poor idea. I do think they could really give us a bit more in depth Attunement swapping.

Something like:

When in Fire (for example) Pressing the Fire attunement again would put you into a stronger version that would buff up some skills and reduce cool downs of Fire skills while in Fire but putting all other Attunements on max cool down.

So you would have be careful when to use it, using it at the right time would make you very strong but using it at the wrong time could backfire if say you use it in Fire but then need healing or need mobility as they would all be put on cool down.

We have that already, it’s called conjures.

Do you even play ele?
That is nothing like Conjures, Conjures locks you OUT of your skills and gives you new ones that mostly suck. This would increase the effectiveness of your CURRENT skills

Very happy with the attunement system as is. I never use conjures though, I think that could use some type of redesign.
