Mordecai Fluke.1423

Was really looking forward to getting a hammer on my Elementalist, but have been really disappointed with what I've seen so far. Not nearly enough damage or sustain for such a fragile class. Hammer skills are weak, clunky, and there aren't any combo fields besides the Jade Sphere, which has the same issue as the skills. It doesn't last long enough, it's clunky to use, and it doesn't have a large enough effect when it's out. For having a focus on auras, it sure makes it awfully difficult to get them. The traits don't give you anything impressive over base traits, and hammer just isn't good enough to compete with base weapons as is. I really hope they give Catalyst a bunch of buffs, because there's just no reason to use it over Tempest or Weaver, no matter what role you're trying to fill.
