It’s the forum’s weird filter. Apparently every swear turns into kitten.
Guild Wars has always been an Artifact Title, since the actual Guild Wars ended some time before the beginning of the Prophecies campaign in GW1.
Well, for starters, you don`t have any class that`s specifically a “melee class”. Every class aside from Engineer has melee options, and every class has ranged options. As for survivability, well, what sort of survivability are you looking for? Killing the enemy faster than they kill you? Having lots of health and armour? Having various abilities to heal or negate damage? I think you`ll find that every class options for all of them.
So, I think you really should be more specific in what you`re looking for.
Ele is my main and I can definitely say that the class is not weak. Against everyday mobs I use dual daggers, usually attuned to fire, and typically completely own face. At and around melee range. Because I just do so much damage to things that they can hardly kill me before I kill them. Against bosses, you definitely should be standing back using ranged powers, like a staff, and of course switching elements, as has been said. Now, the class definitely can die quickly if you`re not careful, but what else do you expect from a light armour class? Every class requires mobility, but the scholars definitely moreso because they`re squishy. If you`re not moving around, you`re doing it wrong.

What worked for me and others in that regard is to log in to GW1, go to the Eye of the North, and fiddle with your Hall of Monuments (like cycling the minipets or something).
