Inscription (air trait) doesn’t work entirely with the Glyph of Elemental Harmony. Previously, the tooltip for the skill would show the shortened CD and two sets of boons – one from the glyph itself and another from the trait.
Now, the tooltip shows 25s CD no matter if the glyph is traited or not and it is an actual cooldown, ergo the trait does not decrease the glyph’s CD. Also the second set of boons dissapeared, only boon list from the trait is present. However, you still get boons from both sources (ex. you gain 10+10 sec of Swiftness when cast in air both from the glyph and the trait).
Also, depending on if the trait is selected or not you see all available boons with element icons (with the trait) or only boon from the current element (without the trait).
Well you should better to hold on to something. As far as carrion goes the difference between exotic and ascended gear varies from +1 to.. +5. Coat for example, the most expensive piece to craft, gives 76 power,76 vitality and 106 condition damage up from 72p, 72v, 101 CD. Boots,gloves and shoulders 25,25,35 up from 24,24,34 and helm and leggins 34,34,47 up from 32,32,45.
Yea it would take some effort. But seeing how they already put in animations on throwing, and added more animations in the latest update (Bifrost projectile for example) I think it should be very doable. Moreover, I think people would appreciate a wider variety in their “legendary” effects.
On the finisher suggestion. Yea why not I’m more of a PvE guy, but why shouldn’t WvW’ers get some love as well? ^^
Unfortunately it is not as nice as it would seem. Many elementalists, including myself, grind their teeth when they look at the new Bifrost projectile effect which replaces 6 different animations with single poor-looking one.
I felt exactly the same Qualx and i agree with you and Zelse completely. I have made a similar topic in crafting section of the forum before. I really hope that Anet will do something about it since the projectile change is really a downgrade. I wouldn’t mind having old projectiles with different animations like it was before. It would be the best for eles imo.
The new visuals for legendaries are finally here. I think that most of them are really awesome, well most of them. The Bifrost was the fist legendary i crafted and because i mainly play as staff ele it was awesome until the new projectile effect. In my opinion the legendary weapon is supposed to make you look good and to stand out of the crowd. Changing six different projectile effects: fireball, chain lightning, gust, water blast, stoning and what is most hilarious to me shock wave into the same rainbow-ball isn’t rewarding for crafting a legendary- it’s a downgrade. I am aware that other classes like mesmer, guardian with his healing orb or umm necromancer (which i doubt) may “benefit” from and like the visual change but i really think that elementalists were looking MUCH better with all the six, old visual effects. In my opinion if Anet wants to add some special effect to the Bifrost they should for example: add rainbow tail to normal fireball, change color of lightning into rainbowy one, make water blast splash rainbow drops like moot springs a confetti or enrich the existing visuals with colors. I realize that such modifications would require a lot of precious resources and time but forcing a poor-looking single visual effect isn’t making things better. What do you other elementalists out there say? Do you like the new visuals or you would rather, like me, welcome back the old ones?
I loove that animation. I wish that Asura Ele’s had it.
Or Sylvari Guardians.
Curse my race/profession choices!
Of course Ele has it. Just equip your staff and use Ether Reneval healing skill. It goes with different animations and sounds too! Depending on your atunement.
