Agreed! I was just curious if it was MY problem or a universal problem. As a side note, the recent Arcdps update fixed it. 😁

Anyone having problems with Arcdps resetting your configuration when you log off and log back on?

That would be a terrible skill to have. You’d have to be hit on the head with a hammer to use an impractical skill like that. But what are we talking about here. Anet would never saddle us with a busted skill like that… and if they did, I’m sure they’d fix it in a day or two. 😉

Arya vs Brienne is what every Sword weaver thinks they look like…. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=U1dH_RSP86c&pp=ygURYXJ5YSB2cyB0aGUgaG91bmQ%3D Arya vs the Hound is usually what we look like…

That’s our lot in life…. It’s not a lot, but it’s our life. ☹️

How about the devs just put a decently timed cool down along with a short duration on the stability boon only in PvP? Is that fair?

Great question!

https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Relic_of_the_Warrior According to the wiki notes, it doesn’t. ☹️ which is lame.

WTH?!?! Keep quiet blasphemer! Don’t take away the only decent source of stability the elementalist has had since Anet nerfed Bolstered Elements.

I humbly disagree. I find continuous condition cleanse with Smothering Auras and perma-stability with Staunch Auras with any dagger/signet build very useful and relevant. If you want barrier, play weaver. Stop tainting my PvE pot by dipping your PvP wick in it. 😉

It doesn’t. 😞

How many elementalist traits are tied to auras?

Does Mabon’s Strength have any effect? Or is it just a placeholder so the system will “know” when you have 10 stacks? If that’s all it is, that’s just plain dumb, Dumb, DUUUUMB!

My God in heaven!! How in the world are the developers going to maintain the balance with these new weapon combinations? I mean, I'm all for the variety. But I just don't see how Anet will bring some of these new OP weapon combinations in line without totally destroying other specs. And that's just Ele, let alone the other professions. 🤔

I feel like I'm probably the minority opinion, but I really don't mind the changes too bad. It does affect the "flow", especially in dagger builds with evasive arcana. Fire 3 through the target, roll back for fire burst. Same with Earth 3 and roll back for Shock wave. Having to de-target and then re-target, takes some getting used to. As someone mentioned earlier, you should never have your Autotarget box checked in PvP/WvW modes, that's a recipe for disaster. However...., if this ^ could be done, I think it would make the changes much more palatable. Then again, I'm no developer, so I have no idea how difficult this would be to implement.

That'll get fixed quick, I guarantee it. Unlike the Evasive Arcana bug

Unbelievable!?! They've had over a month to look into this. I'm reminded of the time, when the developers broke the Signet of Restoration and then took several months to fix that too. But whatever... it's only an elementalist bug. 🙄

I guess I’ve been proven wrong. 😳 And I’ve never been happier. 😁

True words. This whole thread is just pipe dream crap. Tempest support will only ever be average at best. Developers will never give ele both alacrity AND shared stability (I’m actually shocked we got alacrity, tbh). I would love for them to prove me wrong though. 😉

I guess a better question would be… What’s considered a reasonable amount of shared stability that a Tempest could provide a subgroup that wouldn’t be considered mech tier? 5 seconds uptime, 10 seconds downtime? 5 seconds up, 5 seconds down? I like the idea of providing stab on attunement swap. That way, you wouldn’t feel as locked out due to prolonged cool downs switching back to a particular element.

I’m sorry. I wasn’t being clear in the original post. I meant stability (short duration like 1-2 sec) only with auras…. remove the stability with overloads. BTW… I like the use of “mech-tier” being synonymous with OP. I’m using that descriptor from now on. 🙂

If Harmonious Conduit granted stability to allies that are granted auras (number of targets: 5) instead of with overloads?

Thanks. Just the answer I was looking for. :)

Not sure if I’m asking this in the right place. I’m big on seeing as much pretty graphics that I can see. However, I usually have to click on Effect LOD during large group metas to keep my FPS in the double digits. The real question is can I leave the Effect LOD on when I’m playing solo and not see a difference in the particle effects or will it limit my particle effects to a degree that I’ll notice even though it’s just me on the screen?

Hey, if you play around with the color scheme a bit, you could pretend it’s Princess Unikitty. :)
