Elementalist can be pretty cool to play, but the only thing is that there is a HUGE “learning curve” when starting out with the class. Generally, when you pick a new weapon type to use, you need to learn the 5 weapon skills by killing mobs. With elementalist, you need to do this process 4 TIMES per weapon, as you have a set of 5 weapon skills for each of the 4 elements you can switch to. So, you have a pretty steep balancing system for the class: on one hand you can have a total 25 skills per weapon; on the other hand, it takes the equivalent effort of unlocking and learning 25 different skills for one weapon, and a whopping 45 skills if you plan on switching weapons in combat. So, it’s a long grind (literally) at first, but worth it later down the road.
