I’m really not a fan of the gw2 PvP just base on capturing points...can we at least have one mode in rank that’s death match like GW1?I could play GW1 PvP all day because it was more engaging and fun unlike gw2 people just teleport away to capture points...like what is the POINT of PvP!!????? This is worse than MOBA game concept....many times I see my teams just scatter around trying to capture points,,. It is so lame and extremely boring...Literally everyday I just play 1 PvP game to get my daily I’m out because it suck so bad...Maybe there are some people really enjoy capture points but this is the most boring PvP game I have ever played...Probably the worst PvP mode in the market...please fix this!! I mean isn’t it a wake up call nobody is going crazy for GW2 PvP... you don’t see massive fans tune in to watch the PvP game or tournament for a reason...Not sure if any dev will ever see this... or care about PvP in this game enough to make a change...But if you ever see this..thanks for reading.... I have been waiting since the game launch and still waiting... :'(

I really wanna play elementalist but overall it feels like the movement/animation feels very clunky compare to other mage class (necro/Mesmer)And many skills are so useless and weak ...why on earth after years of release this is still not fixed?? I’m gonna compare scourge with tempest since both them have f1-f4,f5 as active skillThe scourge f2-f5 is instant cast and each skill of them serves multi purpose, they can all do damage and either heal or cleanse condition while doing that.BUT elementalist overload have 5 sec CD after changing attunment and upon casting, it is a channeling skill so you better pray you got the stabilization trait or you ain’t gonna cast that skill all the way through for sure. Let’s not forget it has 20 sec CD AFTERWARDS!! It’s like a joke come on!! The skill is mediocre with bunch of punishments why? Is it because it is HoT so gotta be trashy so people will buy PoF? But weaver staff is no where as good too...maybe viable for raid or with bunch of people tanking for you but solo in HoT or PoF is no where near efficient at all!!!! I don’t even feel like comparing ele staff with Mesmer... Mesmer is just too strong in every way elementalist can’t compare lol!!Sword is 1200 NONE projectile so can’t be reflected ...like seriously?? And have ele get 900 none reflect-able damage (sorry a little off topic here)But staff have summon clones to tank/attack while Mesmer do their damage!!! F1-f4 all instant cast with some purpose.While elementalist switch Away from fire you are waiting CD to go back or better yet use some utility weapon skill because you’re doing no damage from other elements aside from fire!! (And lets not forget can’t even change weapon!!!) Just not sure why punish elementalist so much by giving it lowest health and restrict to no weapon change and still make it like trash???Elementalist was so much fun in GW1 ...you can do damage from every elements!! But GW2 totally butchered it and don’t tell me S/D or D/D is strong...I didn’t play mage class to go melee sigh Sorry for the rant...I have been so frustrated with elementalist for years... I remember the very first time I saw gw2 advertise trailer the video was showing how elementalist killing mobs with EVERY elements!!! And that really got me excited like wow that looks really good!! But boy was I wrong...the moment I bought the game...it was farrrr from the advertisement..,almost feels like false advertisement... you can’t spam staff lighting skill 5 to CC constantly so not sure why they do that to confuse player or scepter water skill 3 or meteor shower monster die before reaching you....Extremely misleading... why even call it elementalist when only viable element is fire lol? Might as well call it fire mage or water healer ...because lighting and earth is totally useless here... I hope the new expansion they will enhance elementalist’s range attack not making it another melee class AGAIN... 2 expansions of close range combat is more than enough already seriously...

When can elementalist have permanent pets/summons???It’s been years and I’m still hoping they give elementalist the permanent summon...I think the summon shouldn’t expire after a period of time..it should have an option to either tape the summon button again to explode with some effect base on which type of element it is and if it’s not unsummon it will last until it dies!! It would make staff ele much easier to play on PVE.. it is so lame playing staff elementalist on the open world when most skills take forever to cast and while I’m channeling meteor shower and get beat up or cc by mobs... I’m praying the new elementalist class is some summoning class if they don’t make the elemental glyph summon permanent...,And I know there are a lot of people pwning with their S/D build but I just can’t do it with that 130 range.. I love the elemental animations and range on staff but please give me a tank that will distract mobs while I blow stuff up!!!

The summon speed/ animation is quite annoy it should be as fast as when we were summoning it in the water.When necro are in the water summoning minions are instant cast but on land it has this...1-2 second cast time which is quite annoy especially when we mount and dismount those minions get unsummoned for some bizarre reason.So in some meta event or wvw when monsters die so fast while I'm still summoning the whole thing is already over... and I missed the reward because I'm still SUMMONING!!!! I'm quite frustrating by this too...prior to the mount it wasn't as bad since your summon won't disappear out of no where unless you change map (or they die)...but nowadays when I'm trying to gather materials (ie. mining, chopping etc) I have to debate is it worth it to dismount and harvest materials and have a chance to lose my summon...?? and because of that I often not gather materials...!! on top of that when they're unsummoned we get this CD because we mount/dismount too frequently!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thank you for pointing out the problem here! That is exactly what I noticed too. As soon as someone recommend something NEW or DIFFERENT, the excuse is "It's against the LORE!" "It was NEVER mentioned before!" Seriously that excuse is getting a little old lol. in what universe are elves a new or different idea? as far as i know elves are as old as the vikingsI was referring to NEW to Tyria

What is the point to release new expansion and patches if they're not anything new? and only stick with old stuff? you might as well play some offline RPG that never gets any update..

To the best of my knowledge ANet never said anything about mounts, one way or another. If you have a quote you can put it down but otherwise it was the players making that argument. And no to Elves. They don’t fit the game. That you will have to google it on your own but I remember specifically when I first played gw2 and there was no mount and my spouse refuse to play the game simply because there was no mount. So I had to do some digging on why there were no mounts in GW2. I found out ANet refuse to have mount in gw2 because they believe WP is good enough and we never had mount in GW1 either. However that was years ago so Im not gonna spend hrs tracking some articles just to prof my point. If you wanna believe it so be it if not that’s fine by me, I did found something on reddit about people requesting mounts and asking why there were no mount and the response from the community were just as negative as they are with elf right now. You can see it for yourself but since mounts has been introduced I don’t see anyone who have the expansion choose to walk instead of hopping on their mounts. So I’m not sure why people are arguing for the sake of arguing and say stuff like “nah we are good” if that’s truely the case those players should not have the option to get any mount because they don’t deserve it. Here is the link from Reddit you can see it for yourself:https://reddit.com/r/Guildwars2/comments/3op6bk/why_are_there_no_mounts_on_gw2/ While it’s possible that they said that the game doesn’t need mounts because of waypoints I have rarely seen them say they absolutely no to some feature so without a quote I’m going to say you misremembered it and turned “not needed” into “never” Players saying never, no matter how many threads you pull up, are irrelevant to this conversation. Ya it is irrelevant when we are trying to talk about elf but you insist on nip picking an example I pull up about mounts and request for me to find something that was posted years ago. If you want to know it that bad search it yourself instead of denying the fact.

Pointy-eared, aquatic, humanoid creatures already exist in GW2 (Largos). https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Zafir%27azim Oh yes thank you for pointing that out!!I'm not quite sure what's going on there with their face I'm hoping that's just part of the helmet or something. Perhaps they should make Largos a playable race I would love something like that

The only elder dragon we havent seen is the under water dragon, and they already made a humanoid race that lives down there, though i highly doubt well ever go and finally kill said underwater dragon.Elves do not make sense to this games lore at all. This world(Tyria) is unique, up to and including the fact that humans as a race are intruders. They /arent/ from the world of Tyria, while the other races we both play as, and encounter are. tbh I just want to have the ability to customize human's ear. ANet doesn't even have to introduce elf race lol! It's like if they can give people the option to have glowly eyes I don't see why not give people the option to have pointy ears?? But if they feel the need to intrude elf to make it happen I'm fine with it too either it make sense with the lore or not. Like you mentioned human are intruders to Tyria perhaps elves can intrude too and MAYBE they have been hidden in the ocean or whatever for a long time.

Dude there is no such thing as low elves it's more like dark/night/void elves... but maybe ANet can create something new and call them low elves lol.

Well one man trash is another man's treasure... so I hope ANet see this as a treasure not trash.Also what makes you think introducing the elves won't make sense?? Do you have the info for the upcoming content or story-line? Otherwise never say ever. We have not seen all the elder dragons yet. I remember when GW2 first launched ANet was very firm about not having mounts because they believed the WP system can replace mounts. But guess what??!!! We got mounts now!! Do you think all the mounts that was introduced make sense? Not really. So I'm not quite sure what you mean by art, quality and lore. It sounds more like an excuse to prevent something you don't want to be implemented to the game simply because you think it's trash.

Well that is exactly why we have new expansions/patches along with new unexplored maps.This is RPG anything can be introduced at new map.

yes I vote to have high elves too!! a lot of people try to brainwash others by saying freaking tree is elf! no it is NOTYou don't call a tree people elf just because they both live in the forest doesn't work that way! If that's the case then GW2 shouldn't have human to begin with because its too generic since EVERY game have human in it and should also be extincted alright. Just because you don't like something doesn't mean it should be extincted.
