[Suggestion]:Return best burn to Ele/Tempest

Show me the money trolls. Screenshot it and post it. I’ll eat my hat. I am looking for a screenshot with an isolated solitary elementalist putting more than 10 contemporary stacks of burn on a target with a condition tick higher than the one in the warrior screenshot, with no food or utility activated. That makes it apples to apples.

Here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OH-aB4mwAOk
Actually you can reach over 15 stacks of burning

EDIT: He is using food, but differently from Berserker you don’t need to fill a bar and then have a small window of time to do that burn.

YOU DA MAN! I OFFICIALLY EAT MY HAT!

Here are the builds he talked about in his vid.

You’re delusional. It’s well known that ele already has the highest burn-stacking capability in the game. In fact, many don’t see a problem with the burn condition in PvP… we see a problem with how ele can stack so much of it, carry so much sustain, have so much mobility, and still maintain such high raw DPS.. all while stacking a ton of might.

Maybe read up on what other people have to say:
https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/game/pvp/Do-something-with-this-insane-burning/first
https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/game/pvp/Balance-Cele-DD-Ele-Please

You’re also highly derogatory to your fellow players. I would not be at all sad if you did rage quit.

“It’s well known that ele already has the highest burn-stacking capability in the game. "
Again show me the money and I will eat my hat. This comparison of burn stacking with Berserker clearly demonstrates your claim as false. It’s in the poi vid anet posted, not my vid.

“You’re also highly derogatory to your fellow players. "
Please provide examples. I think you’ve mistaken things that were said to me as things that I said.

Thanks for the other forum links I will look and tell u the value I found in them

The problem is you’re cherry picking, a Warrior cannot have 3k power, 32k health, 3100 ac, do the most damage, stack the most might and everything else you mentioned. They would be required to wear multiple set of armor at once, use more utilities than any other class, and use all their trait line.

If they run full zerk for high damage out put, they will not have that armor, they will not have those HP.
If they run full soldiers, they still don’t have those HP or power, and their damage would not be as high as you are suggesting.

Show me a build that gives them all of what you listed and still out damages all classes.
Or a build that out damages all classes and still gives them the HP/Armor.

If this was the case and Warriors were all powerful EVERYONE would play warrior because there would be no need to play anything else.

I never said all of those bests were in 1 warrior build. But you’ll have to agree that as far as access to the best of the best goes warrior has them most options of any profession.
Care to venture a guess as to which profession is played most often? My money is on warrior for exactly the advantages you said

Let me help you understand.

Warrior already has:
The most HP – Necro has same HP
The most AC – Guard & soon Rev share the same Armor
The most direct damage capability – Thief and Mesmer anyone ?
The best bleed – Ranger is 1 example that can apply more bleeds at a quicker rate.
The best Might stacking – Guard, Ele or do you just choose to forget this to suit your argument ? When Rev comes into play they can keep up 12+ stacks of might at all times.

EVERYTHING you listed is wrong.

Perhaps you should learn what the other classes are capable of before making silly posts.

I should have said in combination. you can’t come up with any of the other professions you listed that will have 3100+ AC, 32k+HP, and 3k+ power.
The might dealing of a single phalanx is unprecidently better than any single guard or Ele, based on the number of stacks that can be maintained actively and the number of targets to which the might can spread.

Best direct damage…. care to put a zerk warrior and zerk thief toe to toe against golems and measure the output? I can’t speak to mesmer. I’m happy to admit I didn’t know about that one and I will check it out.

I’ll take your bet on bleed with warrior vs ranger. Ranger might burst lay it out faster but warrior keeps the most stacks churning until down.

Uh, do any amount of research for yourself? Ele is literally the top of the food chain. Go to metabattle.com if you can’t figure it out for yourself.

So many LOLz thanks. I am talking about burn stacking. Condition dealing. Show me a vetted build on metagame that recommends condi anything. I never said there was no DPS to Ele. I said +1 if you agree that Ele should be given the best burn stacking.
Metagame proves my point.
All the dungeon builds amount to zerker builds
All the WvW builds are zerker, save 1, which is celestial. Build that one and prove me wrong about the burn stacking.
direct and crit damage are king in the game because there is no amount of condi stacking of any sort that can compete with the output. That makes combat pretty monochrome. Ele always sucked as a condi option before they allowed burn stacking. Now we are supposed to stand by and let them give the best burn stacking capabilities to Warrior? Get real!

I am a 1500+ hour veteran of GW1 and GW2 (each), who is 110% ready to Gquit over the rage (punny but not funny) I feel having watched this PoI clip covering how the new Burnzerker is supposed to work.
https://youtu.be/ZhNniaeirq4?list=PLDCvogxNKN3nCrcluAuZPGIsF_ygcbnJk&t=3889
as compared with the weakarse, red-headed step-child Tempest

The point of this post is simple.
It is a suggestion to give Elementalist the best burn stacking capabilities out of any profession in the game.

The reason behind this request is simple. Variety in gameplay.
Warrior already has:
The most HP
The most AC
The most direct damage capability
The best bleed
The best Might stacking
and now lets add to this the best burn?

Comparatively Elementalist has the best:
__________________?
time spent in a downed state?

If you want the game to contain anything but Warriors with different armor sets, its time to gut the golden child and return different capabilities back to their various sibling professions.
What good is an ele that is out-burned by a factor of 10 by warrior and a factor of 2 by a ranger?
What good is a cleric ele that is out healed by a shaman guardian or a magi ranger?
Is the point of an Ele to learn how to be the worst of all professions no matter what party role you choose to do?
Or should the natural province of Elementalists be the elements?
Watch those two clips and tell me if you, as a decade long elementalist player do not receive the message, “Frak you and the goat you rode in on”!
So… The request is simple.

+1 the post if you agree.

Lets show the devs that the community actually wants to play a variety of professions rather than just super-juicing any existing combat dynamic and handing it over to Warrior.

alternatively, we could rename the elite skill for Tempest “Do less with less!” and have that shouted out every time the skill was used. While we’re at it, maybe the sole purpose of the skill should be to drop an array of 10 box-o-fun on the battlefield!

The hawk & eagle with a full carrion / giver build does 32310 total damage (12240 con dmg and 20070 phys dmg) with its F2 skill over the course of a single entire duration (48.25 seconds). Thats 669 dps for all 48.25 seconds and its all the pet.

http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Talk:Hidden_Thief also alledges that Hidden Thief won’t work with a pistol in main-hand and that auto-attack can rob one of the stealth and force “revealed”. You might experiment to see if disabling auto-attack on skill 1 resolves the issue.

There seems to be an issue with the functionality of the Hidden Thief trait not working with certain main-hand weapons or not working consistently with auto-attack enabled on skill 1. (see http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Talk:Hidden_Thief)

Can these seeming bugs be updated if unintentional or clarified in descriptions (of the weapons or skills, as applicable) if deliberate?

As it currently stands it is difficult to determine when one can rely on this trait and when one cannot. As such it feels broken and the player is incentivized to put trait point elsewhere.
