ereboz.8463 Posted November 4, 2017 Share Posted November 4, 2017 I'm pretty new to GW2. Bought HoT last year but didn't play much. When I hit 80 do I have to pick elite spec? Or can I do decent damage with the build I'm used to. I'm enjoying the great sword/ long bow on my ranger and don't like the look of the druid skills Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LightningWolfTigerBear.672 Posted November 4, 2017 Share Posted November 4, 2017 No, Elites aren't strictly required to play. If you like your core build then stick to it and keep having fun. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amanda Whitemoon.6173 Posted November 4, 2017 Share Posted November 4, 2017 agreed, but sometimes the elite specs can give som extrastuff into your build.to explain, my necromancer uses a Mark/Wells build with Cleric stats and lifedrain. i never used the shroud either. i got the Scourge Elite spec. i dont use the new scourge skills or weapons, and since they removed the shadestacking, im not making shades either, but the shade abilities pulse of yourself too, so now i have an extra damage option. it made my overal character better, even if i dont fully use the elite spec.same with my revenant, it uses a Torment build with demonstance, but the new renegade's Kalla's fervor makes me deal plenty of extra damage, even through i dont much else of the elite spec.With a ranger using greatdword/longbow, the new Soulbeast from POF will probably make you alot stronger.
