Guild Wars 2

Only 2 classes got condi builds that is immune to conditions, ranger and necro. Fortunately neither of these builds are popular roaming juilds atm. They’re perfectly viable though.

So Diamond Skin Elementalists aren’t a thing anymore?

I actually really like the premise behind this. With the white swords gone, scouting is more valuable than ever, and there should definitely be some reward for those who do.

There should be a cap to the number of people who can be “scouting” an objective, though. Would be a bit silly if a zerg came into a friendly tower to resupply and happened to see only :20s on the timer, so they all “scouted” it.

I’d like to see an option for scouts who move between objectives, though. Checking on nearby camps shouldn’t strip you of your reward!

It’s always been a “clunky” skill. You have to be facing your target relatively well, and they can’t leave the “cone” of valid targets for the initial few fractions of a second. I used to record all my fights and got curious about why the skills sometimes failed to work. More often than not, it was because I was not facing the target, even if my camera was.

Like Marmatt said, the immobilize on it is, in my opinion, more useful than the leap. Wouldn’t change it, but I would love to see the elementalist face the target before casting so it always lands in the correct direction (think Ride the Lightning with a target that is behind you).

It should also be noted that Churning Earth will do the same thing. If I start Churning Earth with a target selected, and the target goes into stealth, my character will rotate to face the stealthed target until the channel completes. Basically, I can use Lightning Flash to perform the classic combo on a target who thinks he/she is safe, but I can track his direction.

Everyone (except the balance guy) knew that if they increased the sustain of ele without nerfing the damage, the class was going to become OP. It is disappointing that ANET couldn’t see that happening ahead of time.

So what boost ele got? I haven’t notice any difference.

You must not PvP. Thats’ where they buffed it and created a stupidly OP class.

(assuming you’re talking about d/d celestial in sPvP)
But was it the buff to Elementalist (evade on Burning Speed, Blast Finisher on water 3, Cleansing Water ICD removed like it is in WvW/PvE, and Signet of Restoration normalized to it’s WvW/PvE equivalent) or the buff to Celestial that has brought ele back into the meta?
