Will OOC weapon swap for Ele & Engie work in PvP?

Will out of combat weapon swap for Ele & Engie work in PvP?

For the new patch.

I guess we'll get an answer in about 8 hours. But feel free to bump this it you're also curious for this information.

I've seen a number of players claim this won't be implemented in PvP, but I don't think anet has the tech in place to prevent that. In my eyes, it'll certainly work in PvP, which means those classes (especially ele) will be getting huge buffs. And it's not being mentioned.

Ele especially can benefit from a weapon change before engaging in 1v1 or teamfights, to allow them to pick the ideal tool for the situation.

I'm excited, but also a little worried about the change.

Still hoping for a response @Fire Attunement.9835

Thanks!
