When you have to use a conjured weapon and it does more damage and completely negates your classes special function, your class, ele, is kittening broken.

When your highest spike dps build revolves around a trait allowing you to abuse another trait for direct damage (ie: fresh air builds), your kittening class is broken.

When your skill tabs for fire and air state they are for heavy damage, damage which hasn’t been seen since beta, your kittening class is broken.

When your traits in every trait line generally punish your class for using its own special function, your class is kittening broken.

When you give a class the lowest armor and health, and consistently raise cooldowns, and lower damage and still expect it to have the highest skill ceiling, your class is kittening broken.

When you implement a class so complicated that it has no hope of being properly balanced against the rest of the remedial classes, your kittening game is broken on a fundamental level.

I will make no apologies for being rude about how things stand. I spent a lot of money for my collectors edition. I spent a lot of money in game. I can’t even log into this pile of dairy queen dog kitten swirl anymore for longer than 20 minutes without feeling sick about how kittening stupid a person has to be to make so many handicapped decisions on balancing.

The only reason this kitten pile is still installed is because I really enjoyed the first GW, and I spent a fair chunk of change on this one. At this point, I can’t justify spending anymore more money on this game, or any future expansions. Eventually I’ll finally give in, pile the collectors edition in the trash, uninstall, and move on for good. I keep coming back and hoping its worth another look, so far its just more trash piled on more trash. I see the gem store is really taking off though, that’s just kittening grand.

I agree with you about the conjured weapons… and I really don’t understand why Anet made the decision to improve those weapons so they’re better than the actual Elementalist class.

Everything else I disagree with. My Elementalist is not broken whatsoever, and I’m still doing massive damage even without full berserker gear. It seems like your hatred goes deeper than just complaining about the Elementalist class. It’s pretty apparent that you dislike certain aspects that aren’t related to the classes.

It seems you just dislike playing an elementalist. Were you one of the people that jumped on the bandwagon when they were overpowered? And now that they are toned down you can’t play anymore and decided to come here to vent? Well… there is one very, very simple solution for you. Re-roll another class because this one, my dear friend, seems to be giving you a lot of trouble, from the amount of rage you have. A good friend of mine mains a D/D ele in WvW. He shares some frustration with people that are dissatisfied with certain things (like warrior CC being buffed, condi burst necros, ele nerfs, etc), but unlike many, he stayed on D/D despite the nerfs. He adapted and now he’s kicking kitten . I suggest you do the same, or… just… re-roll?

When you watch the lives stream in hope of some real fixes & they mention the new chef recipe that “is perfect for Elementalists…” available only from BLTC chests, & then realise you`re playing a pay2win class…

When you watch another live stream where they say they`re going to talk all about ele spells & how to use them, only to see some dumb dev sit there & read tooltips….

When you see loads whining that they can`t stop eles, yet they refuse to equip stuns/immobs on their bars & then rightfully predict that anet would nerf ele to cater to the care bears crowd…

When you finally see a list of changes, but they`re to conjures, which take up a slot that no elementalist in their right mind would ever consider wasting their time with….

When you spend months awaiting a balance patch so that you can return to the bgs, only to be given “fluff” patch note changes….

When you sigh with relief like I did today after TPing load of lowbie mats, sending higher mats to some I met in gw2 & Guild Wars, knowing that in a day or three it`ll get uninstalled & I`ll never have to tolerate this games joke of a balance team ever again

When you wish the remaining Eles best of luck, but knowingly doubt they`ll ever get what they deserved months ago & even as far back as beta.

I just came here to laugh at the guy saying he’s doing massive damage. My auto attacks on my warrior in a bunker build do more damage than an ele’s hardest hitting skills if they go glass. Some people are in such denial over how crappy this class has become.
Unless of course you don’t speak English very well and have mixed up the words massive and mediocre, then I’d have to agree with you there.
By the way, I believe the record so far is about 80k damage with 100b. Until we can hit that high with one of our skills on something that isn’t a rabbit, I won’t believe anything we can do is massive damage.

In my 1000+ hours of playing guild wars 2, I have never seen such numbers except when I critic on a critter, so you are saying I should being lazy and make a warrior. I mean I have been telling people to roll warriors, but never actually did myself, I guess I am now.

It took them 6 (!!!) years to “fix” the PVE Elementalist in Guild Wars 1, it might take them 6 years to “fix” them in Guild Wars 2 as well. It’s 5 years too early to complain.

The video is impressive, true. It makes an ele sad, true. Still no reason for me to go play a warrior though. It looks amazingly boring and part of the reason why it’s so effective is because the higher base damage gets extra amplified through food.

Actually meteor shower can deal at least 66k+ damage on a single human-size target, under speedkill conditions. And I am not even taking all possible buffs into account (like potions, night or slaying sigils, and non-stacking bloodlust)

For your information, on a human sized target (45 radius), the chance for a meteor to hit is: [ ( meteor blast radius + target hitbox radius * 2 ) / ( shower radius ) ] ^ 2
so: [ ( 90 + 45 * 2 ) / ( 360) ] ^ 2 = 0.25 (25%)

This has been empirically tested and confirmed.

So on average 24 * 0.25 = 6 meteors will hit a single human-size target.
Each meteor hits with a coefficient of 1.3
So on average a target will receive a coefficient of 6 * 1.3 = 7.8
The cast time is 3.8s, with an extra animation time estimated at 0.3s

To compare: 100b has a total coefficient of 5.5 and a cast time of a little under 4s.

Now you want to guess how much damage you can deal with meteor shower on a target bigger than the size of a human?

Never mind that meteor shower takes 10 seconds to put out its damage and has a 30 second cooldown, while hurr durr blades can hit for 106k damage in 3.5 seconds with an 8 second cooldown.

Humans don’t let warriors get close, they don’t let warriors channel for 4s without interruption or breaking free, etc etc, can we stick to comparing damage?

Once you have the average coefficient for the cast just use the damage formula. I used a 30/20/10/10/0 build for the 66k, and I did not include all buffs.

Still without including all buffs, a 0/25/25/20 build would do 80k (swap to water at the beginning of the cast).

Edit: I can get to 87k with full buffs (mainly adding sigils of night and slaying to my previous calculation)

Well playing D/D with evasive arcana and 25 points in water is indeed fun.

Unfortunately your inability to move and impact battles outcome makes all the effort useless and unfun.

And that is why people complained about some NERF that made ele UNFUN most of all!
Also the reason why some players sees the conjured buffs as a gimmick to avoid balancing the profession…

Its like a class overhaul just negating the 20 skill stuff and asking to play with 2 out of 5.

ya, and who is going to stand and yet a meteor hit them. Let’s assume best case, another player roots your attack, the is still a slim chance that none of the attacks will actually hit you.

I know you will never admit it, but you cannot ignore that the warrior has way more dps for less works guranteered than hoping that a meteor hits you and it still does less damage.

Pretty sure the gfx is the only reason why some people refuse to go engi for wvw and spvp when it’s the superior ele.

Reason I made & stuck with the ele is because I`m a stubborn old git, I hate having alts.
(warcraft I mained fire mage, very close to d/d ele style, had alt shadowpest & foolkin for just pottering about, barely got touched.
in Aion, mained Sorcerer, with a couple random others for duelling mate for giggles.
Even bf3 I only had one, support I think.
But in gw2 I`ve felt more forced to make alts then in any other game, ever!)

Staff is still kittene & will remain so post patch, because if someone is determined to get you, they can with ease.
Meteor shower is still rng on long cast time, to get decent damage, you`ll have to go towards gc which means one shot more often then not, waste of a character queue on reset ngihts.
Oh, except you`ll get nagged for static field so they can have aoe speed, despite it is there to save your scrawny kitten ;p
Necro excels for match reset, as does mesmer. Ranger can, I guess, rarely use mine.
We all know how kittenedly op thief & warrior are…

/rant

Anyhoe…

Oddly, I`ve an engie, lower gear then my main ele, yet it can go more towards dps then tanky because of in built blocks, stealth, stuns, interrupts etc.
Even though range is 900 (P/SD) you`re mobility is huuugely superior to an ele.
You also get just as many if not more heals then the usual ele can, & some condi cleanses at same time.

It really is amazing we don`t see more of the engies on the battlefield, but I guess that`s a good thing of sorts ;p

Oddly, my first engie got deleted because I saw how kitten the downed state was.
Then I made another & realised, you can kill things whilst downed, whereas ele downed state remains a yellow cloud of kitten

Indeed I won’t admit this, not because it is untrue but because this is not what we are discussing here.

Someone made a claim that no ele can deal damage comparable to that of 100b in a single attack, I proved it wrong.

If we start discussing anything more than this, like class designs, then this conversation will never end. We do not have the skills or the knowledge to solve the “grand equation of classes” across all game modes and in all types of content. All we can do is compare simple concepts.

You didn’t prove anything, you just rattled off some numbers you made up. Find a video or find a new lie.

his always like that -.- no proof all talk and trolling…. its freaking annoying to discuss with him becouse of his bs, so just give it up early.

I feel like he is a paid shill design to give new or uninformed ele misinformation.

This is an mmo forum, if someone isn’t whining chances are the game is dead.

Best ele build is lava tomb + lightning hammer suicide build. With “blasting staff” trait and of course permanently in water attunement :p (It’s been common knowledge that Eles using more than 1 attunement are considered oddities by the devs after all).
I recommend food that gives +100% downed health, enjoy the class that has an awesome build specifically for dying (at least if you want to deal damage without getting wrist surgery).^^

I’m still doing massive damage even without full berserker gear.

You’re doing what you mistakenly believe is massive damage. Meanwhile, I’m Hurr Durr Blading my way through life 60,000 damage at a time.

Yeah that explains why you have posted sooo many videos of an ele doing anywhere near warrior damage… oh wait!

The fact that I don’t post videos doesn’t take away the fact that an elem can do 100b worth of damage in a single attack.

Those damages would be more useful if not diluted over time and space.

Comparing classes versus comparing specific skill’s damage …

Hey I think Poland > Italy
Bam! endless debate
But if I say Italy’s GDP per capita > Poland’s GDP per capita the debate takes 5 seconds.

How about we stick to things we can accurately measure?

Haha i liked how the risen sat still in the first seconds before getting hit. I still think that it would be better for staff to be able to reduce the aoe of MS for less rng damage.
