The thing is we all see the problem with tanky eles. I have no idea why it takes so long to balance it. Here is a good example: http://pl.twitch.tv/magzyo/b/356720136. Game starts at about 14:00. 3 eles in 1 team. Random team almost won with one of the best eu teams. As for the glass cannon ele I agree there should be something done to make this build viable. I would say having a trait which converts 5% of precision into vitality might help.
Thank you for your opinion. I focused only on spvp, because it’s the right forum for it ( I also agree that elementalists in wvwvw are way too op, but thats another topic ). ArenaNET is known for making this small changes, which is good and I don’t expect anything different than that. There was also a skype conversation between guy responsible for spvp in gw2 and professional players who gave feedback about ele’s downstate and I think that it will get nerfed next patch. I can only suggest that maybe allowing eles to use that mist form after like 6s would be a good move. As for the rest I think that I can’t add anything more that was mentioned above.
I believe that the title of this topic is hype-friendly, but all I want is to discuss about this proffesion. There is already a talk about specific ele buid here

but I felt like the problem is not related to one particular build. Eles are the only profession that can be tanky, deliever lots of damage, mobile, have lots of cc and can be invulnerable. While playing pubs sometimes I can see 1/2 players running eles, which I think ruins the game a bit. Also I play as a thief and I try other professions to know how to behave in certain situations and I just have no idea how to to deal with ele. I’m not a professional player, so probably my opinion isn’t worth much, but I’d like to know what others think about it.
