first you do this, then this. and this, and this… and this.. oh.. and then that.. and that.. and this , and this, and this… and dont forget that.. or this….
This vid i found, just shows how terrible the elemental class realy are.
I mean… soooo much work.. for so little… just why ??
When i leveled my flamer-engineer. i used my napalm bomb.. then just burn the mobs down.. Groups of them. and if i was bored.. i started with my elixir gun instead to pull mobs together so i can aoe with flamer.
the difference is day and pitch darkness.
i know its 2 different classes.
i just wonder.. why the hell, do you need to work so hard on elemental..
to gain so little ??? makes no sense, since elemental are light armor.. and low hp also.
So.. shouldnt elemental.. like.. have alot stronger Direct dmg ?
So.. shouldnt elemental.. like.. have alot stronger Direct dmg ?A-nets official description of the class:
“Elementalists are multi-faceted spellcasters that channel elemental forces, making fire, air, earth, and water do their bidding. What they lack in physical toughness, they make up in versatility and the ability to inflict massive damage in a single attack.”
lol.. “massive damage in a single attack” pfff.. lol…
And what do those two games have in common? They were both released more than 8 years ago. They had enough time to have these things built.
What’s wrong with 3rd sites anyway?
umm. LOL.. ROFLCOPTER..
you say, wow and other games have had 8 years to make their stuff.
true. wow have been around abit.. ( i was a beta player myself, and played a few years).
BUT. Why havent A-net learnt anything then from these other games ?
Why does A-net want to make the same misstake.. other games have had and already fixed a long time ago.
3:d part systems arent wrong. BUT, things that are vital. SHOULD be implementd VERY fast… if not, people get bored and leave. = less money
It should realy be in A-nets own interest to implement something like a dungeon finder system.
I whould use it. and probably everyone else also
Not as it seems, but i get your attention.
The thing is. as it is now, people can guest other servers world event.
Such as: Jormag, behe. and all other.
And they are always locking local people into Overflow.
So they (we). can not have fun on our own server events, because of the guesting crap.
And since you dont seem to get chests when guesting, i guess ppl are just here to
feck up our events..
We could do the same. but that doesnt solve anything.
Whould it be so hard to program in a Lock for guesters and world events ?
As soon as an event is open, The guesters are automaticaly kicked into Overflow.
to let the local people have a chanse at their own even, at their own server.
ex: (very simplified).
World event of Jormag starts… …
Server: Blacktide.
Program starts to check peoples server tag.
Blacktide server.. .. right server.. .. .. .. (nothing happens.)
Gunnars hold server.. .. wrong server.. Guest found.. .. send to overflow.
(dungeon guesting is ok as it is instanced, not affecting local people)
I put up an item for 28,90 gold.
Listing fee was: 1,44 gold.
My profit is: 26,1 gold.
???
28,90 – 1,44 = 27,46.
I should have 27,46 gold profit.. not 26,1
so.. whats going on ??
why do i pay 2x listing fee ???
LOL.. i wrote this 1 time.. not 10… A-net is soo noob with their programings and designs. not even i had these problems on forums i have created myself… just lol.

Just a hunch, but as this is eldain’s second thread trashing the ele, neither of which sounds like he actually plays ele, I’m guessing he got his kitten handed to him by an ele, maybe several times, and this is his way of venting. It could be he’s a totally incompetent ele, or maybe these threads are just the best entertainment he can think of late at night in his parents’ basement. But I’m going with got his kitten handed to him.
sry.. i have not got my kitten handed to me by an elemental.
i play warrior mostly in www. so. they fear me. more than i fear them.

45 second Cooldown on a weapon skill ??? are you kidding me ?
This class is sooo badly designed.
45 second CD.. i dont even have that on my sigils on my other classes i play…
and i play Warrior (hammer / rifle). Flamethrower engineer. Hammer/support guardian.
Longbow 1500 range ranger.
None of my other classes have even close to this 45 sec CD on their weapon skills.
Hell.. if i wanted to. i could play my warrior and do 100blades every 8 second.
Ofcourse.. its stationary and melee. But not a problem.. many ways to root/knock down an enemy and go wild on them. and we all know 100 blades are insane. 20k.

Is it a joke ?? did they put a ( , ) in the wrong place ? did they mean 4,5 second ?
so you could actually use it ?
Imo. elemental class is a bad joke.
I can use my rifle warrior and use my 6 second CD.. 1200 range Volley.
wich does 5 – 8 k dmg. depending on though and class. (8k on elementals).
and i do 1 k normal hits.. and 2.5 k crits. 1200 range… boom boom.
Seriously.. Remake the elemental class.. and make it usefull.
As it is now.. its nothing i fear at all on www. they fear me more when i launch 1 volley to take 50 % of their hp.. and if they do dagger /dagger on me..
i just hammer them silly with 2 k normal hits.. and have seen crits 4k.

nope.. this class is still crap.
nope.. this class is still crap.realy realy forcing people to specc more than 1 element.
and because of that.. i atleast find them totaly stupid and boring..
and weak.
i like fire. Universe started with realy hot fire. (kinda hehe
and i played fire mage in wow.
i played bright wizard in Warhammer.
etc etc..
always liked fire speccs.
But, in this game ??
OMG.. the boredom.
I got my elemental to lvl 6.. before i sent her back to the big black nothingness wich happens when you delete a character.
I got so many moments… “umm.. why is this crap skill even in this game?”
The volcanos. realy ? do design team realy think ppl will just stand still in them ??
“iam gonna pop up a volcano at your feets. please stand still, its pretty i promise”
the tiny tiny tiny fire strip when you roll backwards.. ? you cant even stand in it if you wanted to…
The falling fire tooth. hoovering for 2- 3 seconds.. before dropping.
its just like “YO, iam gonna drop this BIG tooth on you, please stand still.. 3..2..1..”
Or the firey meteor rain. mobs just stod there in the middle.. not taking dmg.. ?
realy realy lucky mobs avoiding all those falling meteors ?
i used 2 skills of all my fire skills.
1: autoattacks.. (works)
2: that thing that go boom. (nr3 skill on staff).’
all else was just pure crap.
and the dmg is way to low.. to survive on just those 2.
Then i jumped to the pvp mirror area. to check the traits.
1 path for each element ? ye sure. but i want fire only. so 30 points.. then 40 not even used.. i dont want to play a wussy water, earth or lightning.. i want FIRE…
Forcing people to specc into other elements ?.
If i ever saw bad design.. this is it.
oh.. and yes.. i used staff. all real cool elementalists/mages/wizards and what not..
All use the cool staff.
i input +5% crit in my magmaton.
But it doesnt add to my total stat at all ??
Some dungeons are plain stupidly OP.. yes.
Example. Caudecus manor.
Bosses are easy. Trash mobs are 10 times harder and can 1 hit ?!!?!?!? WTF.
Good luck.
Dont bother with CM. atleast not the Exploring mode.
You will just end up seriously kitten off.
The mobs in there, the trash mobs. are 10 times harder than the bosses.
hehehe. i tried AC also. and yet again, the design team fail totaly.
now you have to depend on a npc, to finish a boss.
realy great idea, since your npcs are normaly buggy and weird from begining.
I could say where its safe to stand, and not even care about the stupid buggy npc.
But i wont. or A-net just screw up about the only way to do this place.
Best way to fight a thief.. is to run away.
i have heard ppl talk about them… “they are op” and bla bla..
so i went to mists to try one…
and OMG.. so fecking useless.
they have a little jump attack every 4 second (if traited).
and their 3:d attack takes YEARS to land on their autoatacking.
i could even go and make dinner.. eat some.. then come back just in time for my 3:d attack to land…
they have nothing on the traits that realy buff them. as compared to Greatswords wich have traits all over the place that increase its alrdy higher dmg and control.
So… what am i missing ??
i dont see why hammer guardians are so dangerous…
another thing… IF flamethrower becomes a weapon.. they can also make a legendary one to get.
wich of now.. legendaries are just crap.. dont see them anyways.. since we work with kits all time.
Yes to troll all the other classes when they get flamethrower drops.
That’s right! We’re the engi class and we exist! We’re gonna make life hard for you somehow if we cant do it by killing you or making you sigh when we join your party.
No because flamethrower is still junk and I wouldn’t take it over rifle or pistol.
This is why i whould want a Flamethrower weapon instead of a kit.
They make it as a NEW weapon. that is Fixed and works.
(and also a few new skins to not make us all clones)
the problem is with the balancing. (as always).
But if it becomes a weapon instead of kit.. it will be 2 handed.. and therefor can not have the dmg tax. as it will already be nerfed to only have 1 sigil.. AND no longer have the incendiary ammo belt utility.
So as a weapon..it needs to become alot stronger to compensate.
Either in Raw dmg… or in added duration and stacking of burning. (or mix of both).
And perhaps That is exactly what is needed for our beloved Flamethrower.
Lose it as kit.. but get a working weapon.
The flamethrower is an “almost” unique weapon for the engineer.
(there is a vendor somewhere i read that sells also).
But since our kit synergy with stats and what not.. sux…
Why not simply make a flamethrower as a Weapon instead. only useable by engineers.
that way we can get new skins for it… and it probably will get easier to get it balanced right. ( i whould like a more… dirty-homebuilt-skin).
there are many suggestions on the skills of the flamer on the forum already to pick from.
so if you take away the flamerkit.. and make a weapon… and make it new.
i dont think ppl whould realy mind.. if they can actually use it after the remake from kit to weapon slot.
this is the most.. weird… vid i have seen.
all you do is planting bombs near yourself ? hoping someone will come and run over it ?
you write.. pew pew.. boom.. all time.. but i dont see your dmg
but i dont see anything realy new…
and i dont see anything that says.. THIS is new…
so what was this restart for ?
why doesnt engineers have any ?
i rather have such.. than useless turrets.
If you saw the recent state of the game discussion. Ele being nerfed, Engineer’s being worked on.
So there is hope.
Hope.. is the fastest way to disapointment…
(but lets hope your right…)
“Again I feel Anet overlooked this class”
what do you expect from a class created in the last minute before shipping.
how can an engineer run an enemy down ???
““I see the question a lot where people ask whether an engineer can be played without kits, and if so won’t they just be weaker? And the answer is no, they will just play very differently” <—- you roll another class… “very differently”…
The class designers must be pure idiots.
Its like they sat down and thought:
boss: “ok everyone. game will launch tomorrow.. but we still have room for 1 more class… anyone have ideas ?”
designer3 “but sir.. isnt 1 day a little short time to make a whole new class, balanced and competetive and atleast 90% bug free??”
boss: “SHUT UP NOOB. get lost… your fired”.
designer1 “I got it… lets make a class with all RNG. that whould be fun, you never know what will happen… lets call it… THE ENGINEER”.
boss: “sounds good”
designer4 “But, with almost everything RNG.. what happens if all RNG falls to their favor from time to time?”
boss: “Oh… ye i see where this is going.. we cant have that”.
boss: “Solutions ??”
Designer1 “YE, put dmg taxes on weapons. and kits… kits should not be compared with weapons. that whould make them too strong. but we can use white dmg stats for kits, and all elixirs should be totaly random on their buffs”.
boss: “Now THATS a good designer.. Gold star to you”.
designer2 "OH.. I always wanted a awesomness flamethrower.. “FFWOOSSSHH”.
boss: “LOL.. WTF.. you kidding right…”
designer2 "please. can we have it boss ? it will look cool.
boss: “Hmm, ye… sure, but remember we are serious developers here no more hot fuzz”
(writing: secretly add a bug to make it miss… ALOT… hehehe..
and it should do weak burning…
That should show him to try and make “cool” ideas)…
