Torch for new spec will be weird and boring.

[MyPuppy.8970]

It will be longbow. The innovative part? It will be melee.

I am starting to be of the mind of wanting a short bow with all combo types and most fields if not all fields in the game after seeing the balance update for combo/fields. I have a feeling my wants are more of a pipe dream for combos/fields.

My guess is that the will get torch..

and it will just get pyromancer as a spec.

no more elemental swapping just fire. 

 

or. My dream.

Avatars.

Lore: In cantha ementalist kept the tradition of focusing on their singular element. This complete dedication to their single element allows for the arcane magic to swell around them and they become fully attuned. These elementalist tranform into a state of pure arcane bliss unleashing devastating pure arcane magic onto their foes

 

Mechanic: Single element. Like revanents chose their legend, elementalist choses their element.

Avatar state: Tranform into arcane mode unleashing a torment of arcane power. Arcane mode acts as second health bar but deteriorates fast. Can be traited to be melle or ranged or mid range with granmaster traits.

Access to weapon swap.

 

Focus mainhand- focus in mainhand it can act like a melee or long range weapon.

Fire will 1200 range agressive spell casting

water will have dancer 900 range spells

air will have mid range punches

Earth Melee punches

Tempest got offhand

Weaver got mainhand

So it wouldn't be too optimistic to assume a two hand is next

 

Torch just doesn't seem right cause it wouldn't change the way the class plays. The last two elites were all melee range playstyles. Torch wouldn't change that. 

 

Is easy to assume the devs thought of the idea of making Ele more range. So either longbow, rifle or greatsword/shortbow if they don't care about the conjures. And honestly, do we think the devs really care about conjures? Lol

 

P.S Any long range Weapon for Ele will be super spammy and most likely extremely glassy in order to be effective. Unless! They allow weapon swap, which then I'll be impressed! 

 

As mentioned before a billion times. Eles decide two elements and they choose (just like a Rev would) which elements they fight in. With weapon swap, that's 20 skills and +5 from the utilities

Yeah. What I had in mind (also maybe way too farfetched) is :
A longbow ele, who can swap weapon and has access to just two "elements".

However, those two "elements" are actually a fusion of two of the four starter elements.
The trait lines make you choose which elements to fuse together.

I don't like the limitation of only 2 elements though. I'd rather have all 4 🙂
