Guild Wars 2

Again classes playing in-and-out playstyle like thief(every builds) and clone kill/steath mesmer ,very impossible to counter with ele right now ,when you burst them hard (d/d ,s/d still the same),50% ,30% ,nearly down ,all they need is steath ,recover ,and repeat what they just do .

You are not .

Karl McLain.5604:

This is just the first of many traits that we’ll be revealing. Tune into Ready Up tomorrow (http://www.twitch.tv/guildwars2) for more information on what’s coming!
We’ll be talking about all of the new elementalist traits, one of them in particular being ‘Stone Heart’.
See you there,
-Karl

Yeah ,Nice,Cool,Swag,Yolo
Don’t make us to be disappointed, i dont want playing-like-suffer-but-try-to-enjoy next half year.

Hunter.4783:

Sorry to sound mean but;

Do you really think people will choose 3k health over goodies such as Pure of voice and Battle presence? 3k health means NOTHING in PVP as well as fractals where u get 2-3 shot regardless of health.

Honor has some of the best traits in the game and the new trait falls short to even some of the adept traits in honor, not to mention grandmaster. Please, change this trait, or make it adept and throw it somewhere in valor or even virtues, but as of right now it does NOT deserve to be grandmaster

Wanna trade ? guardian new trait to elementalist new trait .

Well ,pvp now bored ,fighting for nothing ,and new season of WvW is coming .I need some advice about gears for a fresh air s/d build . still focus burst dmg but i want a little more survive .Can u guys help ? Thx alot.

Phhhhhhhhhhhh Hope we got some leaver in pvp ,they all go for new WvW season now ,or all leave ,no one like to fight for nothing .Heart of the mist now bored ,just few ppl less.

Profession Skills
Thief
Trickery II—Instinctual Response: Fixed a bug that caused this trait to grant fury and vigor while on cooldown.
That’s all for this patch .
Some lazy ppl around here ….

Hyo Jin.5630:

As, I just remind you, GW2 isn’t a game in which you pay monthly fees (which is ALWAYS good to remember for such a good game) you can choose whether or not to play, you can still come back to enjoy the game later, that’s not a problem.

Yeah ,sure ,but not like 8 months and still the same .

1. I got alot of reward chest i win at Tpvp but im not open yet ,does it will be remove after patch ?
2. After remove glory and reward chest from Tpvp , can i still get gold from matches ?

They dont need a tutorial ,all they need is stick with hotjoin to learn how to play .may anet should bring back the old tpvp system ,tickets for matches , im tired with guys fighting out point and still want free chest.
Or bringing some deathmatch mode ,just kill and kill ,more fun than cap.

Oh ,yeah ,sure . Remove warrior’s healing signet first .Then retaliation .
Bonus : In PVP and WvW retaliation damage is reduced by 33% .

S/x : 30 in air ,remember to trait Fresh Air (XII) .Another up to you . I like 0/30/10/0/30 or 0/30/0/20/20 .bring Arcane shield ( mainly) and some others break stun like Amor of Earth and Mist form if u want more survive and a little balance .Berzerk , Rune of stregth or orge for dps , sigil of 5% dmg or battle ,1 less is your choice ,Sigil of air good for some extra hit/dps.

/thread

My friend mainly focus PvE , but after i telling/taugh/making/ask him to play some Tpvp with me ,after 2 weeks ,he’s up from Deer to Wolf ,mainly with his warrior.
You play a warrior too ,right ? what’s your build ? my friend play a banner /support build ,and dont tell me you try to avoid the meta you and your team making lol.

+1
But quiting at the first fight is rarely ,they mainly quit at 3 or 4 times after trying lol , and mostly forgot rotate /get buff/kill lord. Still get some changes if ppl still trying.

Tyler Chapman.1832:

This build is so fun, it should certainly shake things up a bit.

Crazy changes are crazy:P

#elepocalype

May the element guide you too ,don’t try to lose your way again ,mortal :P

“Rotate if they zerg”

With pure condi classes ,yeah it’s work well in 1v1 ,but not team fight . with Dps hybird condi classes like venom thief or 2k death shourd auto atk necro ,totally useless .they take that 10% down easy ,no problem.

bring back the break stun .

Ahh forget it . maybe we got some change in march 18 , but not enough to make ele viable again .I think Anet got no ideal for us , gg for they. Try hard or die with high risk .
No hope since the day they update torment ,stupid condition ,stack like bleed, deal dmg every sec like bleed ,and DOUBLE the dmg when moving ….
why not just deal dmg when moving and stack duration only .. ?

Dwaynas Avatar.1562:

Only 1 because playing only 1 class – ele

same ,ah wait ,champ magus ,champ slayer … i got 2

Well , i was testing this trait again in some 1v1 and :
May work with condi engin and some condi warr ( using staff bunker healing )necro condi sometimes ,but no longer work when they turn in 2nd life ( auto atk dear big dmg ,or that guy play hybird ) .No longer work with condi minions master necro ,backstab venom thief ,only mesmer im not testing yet ,but i think will not work again lookdown mesmer if u dont bring our stability,they can spam some cond if interrupted ,and mainly still confusion.
PS : No longer work at team fight.
PS : Asking myself if im not running bunker staff ,does it worked ?

LightningBlaze.4913:

kite and burst is all you need.

if they using that broken healing signet and 3 stances ( balance ,berzerk and endure pain) , just run .

Pve – We rock !!!!
Pvp – Fancy keybroard , Perfect internet connect ,Piano hand ,ans still die fast with meta if u dont have that 3 .

Lowest HP + armor with long CD for usefull skills is our problem.The curing conditions is weak for the condi meta ,too .We got 1 or 2 (or 3 at least) extra heal skills in water but just about 1k~ 1k5 heal when we dont have a real good main heal skill .That’s mean we need more time to healing than other classes .

Paavotar.3971:

Nothing new that a light armor caster dies to a melee class that is consentrated on 1v1 fights through spike damage.

Lol … what ? You talking like we dont need balance in this game ,let’s every thing go nature right ?

Okay just sayin friend … after reading all the comments i think you should delete your ele already .. just sayin … im not pro but good enough to survive .
“I run zerker and i’m glassy as can be” ….

I though u talking about Pvp or 1v1 or something like that .Ele is fine in Pve ,friend , running with zerg ,dodge ,heal ,bla bla ,i can survive well with my ele .My current pve build is 0/30/0/20/20 s/d ,zerg trinket and knight armor (expect head is zerk ) rune is scholar ,sigil is 5% crit and bloodlust . try to kite 1 or 2 or 3 at the same time if u full glass

When i bought Storm it’s just 100g ….
Now i still happy …

Oh i try to win by believe in friendship of guildies and teammates alot of time ,and half of that is losing :v

Ohh just remove the class already :v

After reading that’s we will get a new signet elite on March 18 ,i think we should get rework all others signet too.About that :
Signet of Restoration : More active heal ,plz ,at least about 4k heal
Signet of Earth : reduces the cast time ,3/4s cast for 3s immo ?
Signet of Air : replace blind by something we really needed ,how about fury ?
Signet of Water : Heal ,plz ,i think no one want that chill
Signet of Fire : 3k burning with 3/4s cast , i have no ideal with it :v
So ,how about u guys ?

Like and subscirbe !!!

How about rifle ? Magic Sniper !! Element Gunner !!
that’s cool .

1.Elementalist
2.I don’t care
3.If i don’t care about 2 , I don’t care about 3 too ,all classes other the first one look OP for me.

Now i know i can use updraft too .Thx u
Also ,back item dissapear after RTL ,plz fix this too

Sometime im using lightning flash to get out of frozen block(after frozen timeout) or move to some point ,it’s stuck until im using another movement skill.Devs plz check this ,im playing s/d and when rtl is in CD ,im stuck for 40s .

Champion Magnus .

In TPVP:
Im using 30/15/0/15/10 Meteor focus on my ele and still go down fast if my teammate not protect me .Was try before this some oldschool d/d 0/10/0/30/30 Sodier’s heal tank too but not good enough to tank with condition meta.(or im suck at it)
Today i got the Champ Magnus title and switching to play war hambow 0/0/30/20/20 .Tanking like a boss at mid and " YOU SHALL NOT PASS !! " spam when finish someone.
I dont care what is your " red" or “circle” ,just leave meteor alone.It’s fine. out of the point if u dont wanna get hit.

hahahahaha …. so funny ,necro and warrior there you go friend)
but true .

Im just backing to the game after few months and now im looking for some ele build using in tpvp thanks alot
BTW ,warr hammer/longbow look OP

http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Phoenix
Read 5th patch note.[/quote]
Opp ,the last time im using Phoenix ,its removes all 3 conditions on me that time , and its just about 1 month since i stop logging in .

Gj ,but here’s a fix :
Phoenix removes ALL condition when it’s return to you ,not 1.
If it’s just remove 1 , so they (Anet “balance guys”) changed it ( Im not playing for a long time before the patch so im not sure )

New me after patch :">

Base on your styles . I want to become a “true mage” style use warn and staff ,so i making a Meteorlogicus and on my way to making Bifrost next :">

The class currently broken .DPS low , healing suck ,halves of traits useless . But my main still ele cuz i have a reason like u ,spent everything for the liltle one . U can searching for daphoenix build and learn about his playstyles , or run a S/d fresh air burst . Good luck with that

Wiz.1543:

I feel this thread is getting a bit derailed. The point of the thread is to have a constructive discussion about the Elementalist. Most comments of 2 days ago and yesterday where awesome to read and constructive. While those of today most aren’t.

There is no point in debating how OP or UP the elementalist is, as this already is done in many other threads. Therefore the title.

From seeing the devs comments:

Roy Cronacher.1576:

The recharge for unsteady ground will stay the same or about the same as it is currently. Also there are a few other nice staff changes coming in that patch as well. =)

JonathanSharp.7094:

Class balance:
Overall we’re looking to provide more builds for all classes, across all game types (PvE, PvP and WvW). We’re also looking to improve support potential for many classes. A lot of players have asked for this style of play to be stronger, so we’re looking to make it a more viable option.

These are some HIGH LEVEL previews, and you’ll still see number tweaks, trait fixes, and bug fixes for each class in the actual release notes, but we wanted you guys to have some transparency into the release:

Elementalist
We’re working on the staff in an effort to make it a stronger support weapon, and we also improved the conjure weapons so that they’re stronger for support. You’ll see improvements to all 4 of the conjure weapons to make them stronger and better for support.

We also increased the healing on Water Blast, the radius on Geyser and we reworked
Unsteady Ground to make it function more like line of warding.

What I am getting from this is the Elementalist is going the be more capable in healing and CC. Personally I like that direction. What are your thoughts?

This man try to make us think ele is a support class and join his church . HOW DARE YOU !!! I WILL BRING YOU TO THE INQUISITION !!! Just kidding , please don’t use your healing ground to kill me :v

Sorry honey ,3s enough for phew phew ranger with quickness or backstab thief take u down :v
