Windborne dagger bug
As far as I know it does work, but only in combat (which makes the skill rather pointless, because you will have swiftness then, especially with a d/d setup). Did you test in combat?
No, i didn’t test it in combat.
Warriors sprint works outside of combat so why shouldn’t eles do the same?
We aren’t allowed to roam in WvW I guess. Maybe Anet just don’t want us being roamers? :P

Ele mobility is evil, didn’t you know that? It killed Elvis, causes world hunger and global warming. The latter is caused mainly by all the heated debates in the forum.

The amount of times i hear this… as someone with both a warrior and elementalist you should be able to count all the passive movement speed increase (minus swiftness) of both professions.
Shall we go through them? Elementalists get: SoA (25%), Zephyr’s Speed (10%), One with Air (upto 25%), windborne dagger (15% mainhand, 10% offhand, only in combat).
What do warriors get? Warrior’s Sprint (25% while weilding melee).
They don’t stack ofc but elementalists have more options. One with Air is contrary to how the profession plays though and should be changed.
Obviously, this has no real bearing on what’s a more mobile profession as warriors can beat eles in this regard depending on what weapons. You know what i’d rather take than warrior’s sprint? Either vigorous focus or signet mastery, far better traits imo.
And yet the warrior trait is vastly superior to all of the elementalist ones combined.
