Yeah, sorry, this is pretty ridiculous and you’re not telling me that the load in the middle of the day on a weekday is so demanding they can’t handle it (or couldn’t with decent servers).
Guess it’s time for lunch and a nap…..ANet, get some new hamsters on those wheels before HoT comes out, seriously.
I currently have a Thief at 80 and an Elementalist in progress at 48 and honestly, even though yes, the Ele drops mobs in a single shot quite often, I preferred the Thief overall.
I don’t weigh in on the forum very often, simply because I don’t do either dungeons or PvP, so I don’t feel I have the experience to give a valid opinion on most topics.
However, given that you sound like you’re leveling up with the same preferences I have (open world, 100% map completion, exploration based), I would recommend the Thief from purely an enjoyment perspective. Ele is so OP that it’s almost boring.
My thief is traited for survival, using acrobatics, trickery and deadly arts, and with the passive health regen on both signet of malice, and Assassin’s Reward trait, and condition removal when using caltrops, you can build out to be pretty darn resilient, for a low health class. Plus, it’s just freaking fun to play, with stealth and the steal mechanic.
