Vissarion.6509 Posted July 27, 2021 Share Posted July 27, 2021 (edited) https://imgur.com/dqwpGPK What do you guys think? The other strong possible candicate for the new elite spec is the 1st in second row that shows an electrified bullet, that would suggest rifle or pistol (bleh).

Mini Crinny.6190 Posted July 27, 2021 Share Posted July 27, 2021 just a bigger version of core ele Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeceiverX.8361 Posted July 27, 2021 Share Posted July 27, 2021 Can we confirm that's their new icon? Because the center of that is the initiative icon. The one with the crossed swords also has it. To me the most logical conclusion is Ele gets the initiative system where focusing on one attunement is stronger than swapping, like thief's gameplay. However, it's absolutely possible they opted for torch on the thief. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulPottwal.7239 Posted July 27, 2021 Share Posted July 27, 2021 We can't confirm that this is the ele icon. If they go for a guardian monk e-spec, the icon could also symbolize their chakra. The ele icon could also be the first one in the second row Could be a rifle 🤢 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fuzzyp.6295 Posted July 27, 2021 Share Posted July 27, 2021 (edited) Hmmm.. I dunno if we can say with certainty that you've highlighted the Ele elite spec icon. It looks fire-ish yes but neither Weaver or Tempest look like that so I think its unwise to just assume Fire = Elementalist, it could also be guardian or just a different kind of spec for another class. If we didn't know the Mesmer elite spec and you saw that first icon, I'd imagine most people would assume that was for Thief and the Demon Mask was for Mesmer. So lets not jump to any conclusions yet. EDIT: I do think its the most likely one though, perhaps an Arrow on Fire for Long/Short bow with Initiative perhaps?

Elchicoque.1705 Posted July 27, 2021 Share Posted July 27, 2021 (edited) Honestly both of them could make sense but that bullet one got some kind of energy or magic around it so im betting on that one Edit: Or the bullet one could be necro with the pistols and we'll get the one that looks like a potion (the last one), we could be alchemist maybe, that would be a surprise xd at this point I have no idea, I hope we get a sneak peak next tuesday Edited July 27, 2021 by Elchicoque.1705 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guardian to me strangely enough. hmm, true tho, it has a glimpse of DH's icon with the sharp angles. The arrow head on fire interpretation also makes sense to Ele. Either way, I guess we're going ranged Ele, which pleases me 😄 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Downstate.4697 Posted July 27, 2021 Share Posted July 27, 2021 It seems rather like a crystalized version of the core icon. I wouldnt be surprised to see ele with some sort of jade magic, similar to shiro legend. The diamond in the middle suggests possibly an initiative mechanic.

Vissarion.6509 Posted July 27, 2021 Author Share Posted July 27, 2021 (edited) The thing with ele is that if we get another one-handed main hand, all offhand choices are bad, focus is so outdated and meh, and dagger is only good for melee combat. I still hope on a 2-handed weapon (GS pls) or at least Longbow. Rifle will be a lot of single target probably. Well we can only speculate but doesn't look good for now.

Fueki.4753 Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 It looks like a cubic crystal inside a flame to me. I definitely think it's for Elementalists. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HowlKamui.5120 Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 It looks like the front view of an arrowhead/bullet, i wouldn't mind longbow/shortbow/rifle on the ele. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
