Best Elite For Each Profession
jaximus
you argue against an elite because of overpowered pve skills. then you say you have 200 points to spend on the rest of your skills. why would you play a mesmer if you werent going to devote points to fast casting? thats foolish. then you say you can use skills instead of spells. last i checked mesmers were spell casters... if you are gonna argue to use skills, use a ranger with expertise. then youre argument for using skills doesnt work cuz then you are no longer a mesmer. so youre saying because of brawling headbutt- magehunter, dev hammer, backbreaker, and shove are bad elites for pve? so you are in favor of using your pve only skills but not essences of celerity? theres your recharge time reduction. your suggestion for best elite for every caster but monk was to use assassins promise. yes its a good pve elite. my ideas promoted playing a character with an elite from their primary. this thread is about the best elite for each profession. not being restricted to a certain secondary is also nice in many situations. if you want to play the game with all of your pve only skills and consets be my guest. i enjoy a bit more of a challenge.

Quote: you keep saying deep freeze, do you bring an ele hero/person in hm? i see a lot of the triple necro/bha/barrage thing. Deep Freeze only needs /E. You can put it on one of your heroes, you know.

This isn't PvP. Your Deep Freeze won't get interrupted that much. And this is a team game.

Exactly. What does Fast Casting bring to PvE that I can't do with Mindbender? Soul Reaping and other primaries are more useful than it. Quote:
Mesmers offer nothing that another class can do with superiority. Mindbender offers fast casting to any class, whereas using your attribute points to fuel the speed of spells being cast can be troubling too. I'd rather have a useful primary and use a skill slot if I really want this.

to tyla and flaming metroid... clearly i left out earthshaker from my examples, the reason, earthshaker is aoe, my examples were single target kds.
And why would you take those knockdowns if you can have a stronger one in terms of single-target knockdowns? Even then, Earth Shaker comes out superior. Quote:
