    Coffee Dad's really great at explaining combat-related stuff so simply - I love that about this channel, as one who is eternally bamboozled by GW2 lol.
    This video now has me itching to try out some different elite specs. I'm totally guilty of finding what I like and sticking to that (been a Tempest main since HoT and probably will be til the end of time lol) and these videos remind me that there are other options.

    • @kyle1806
      @kyle1806 Před rokem +1

      Curious why you prefer Tempest over Weaver? IMO Weaver is the pinnacle of elite spec design and the most engaging and enjoyable the combat in any MMO has ever been.

    • @chiaroscuroh
      @chiaroscuroh Před rokem

      @@kyle1806 I love how easy (in elementalist terms) Tempest is when it comes to versatility. I can very easily switch to whatever role is required in different content, plus I find that Tempest's rotations can be more reactive to the situation without totally derailing. Weaver can be fun to play but I find it relies more heavily on a more set rotation to be effective. But that might just be me (a mediocre GW2 player lol)

    • @kyle1806
      @kyle1806 Před rokem +2

      @@chiaroscuroh Interesting perspective. Always cool hearing how other elementalists like to play, as I'm such a staunch weaver advocate. I agree that there is a bit more of a rotation base to the weaver but you have to be able to react and adapt to the situation and doing so within the framework of the weavers dual element mechanic, to me, is the height of engagement for GW2 combat. Granted I haven't tried out every class/spec, it seems to be backed up by anecdotal reports.
      To each their own!

      @@chiaroscuroh as a non ele main, I agree I also like tempest more because of this. Perhaps I don't understand the benefit of weaver well enough, but I'm not a sucker for big complex rotations. For example I don't like complex boon upkeep builds spamming everything off cd. Some boon / dps rotation is fun but next to that I want to be able to press the buttons when I need them. And I don't remember about boons but I remember indeed it's harder to swap back and forth with weaver because of this double element mechanic.

    hmmm for the chrono you should have also included some gameplay with big numbers because for solo play it's also a dps burst machine; in Drizzlewood you have this minigame with ranking for soloing this small instanced boss fight. And the top ranking for fastest clear (back then) was held by chrono's

    I want so badly to enjoy this game but I keep getting this bug where at the end of story missions my game just disconnects and kicks me back to character select. When I log back in I have to redo the entire mission.
    This happened first with the Rata Novus mission in tangled depths then when I did the final main sorry mission. I had to redo each mission I think 4 times before I changed the data streaming option to unlimited. It worked for a bit but now doing living world season 1 and it's happening again. Anyone experience this? I contacted GW2 support but they say they can't find anything wrong.

    • @CaffeinatedDad

      I play power Dragonhunter (longbow/greatsword) in PVE, Fractals, Strikes, WvW and PVP (in pvp I sometimes switch GS for sword/shield) and it's such a fun class.
      I wouldn't say it's bad in terms of damage, but in group content it feels like a very "selfish" build in that it doesn't do much for the party as a whole with regards to boon application, etc. However that might just be the former Firebrand in me talking XD.
      Also, True Shot (longbow 2) is great for trolling enemies who think they've escaped your grasp, right before your arrow ruins their day XD

    • @CaffeinatedDad
      @CaffeinatedDad  Před rokem +1

      Not necessarily core builds still do well in pvp, its all normalized. The elite specs just add different affects to the core and change their playstyle. Pvp is about as balanced as it can be ATM so you would probably have a learning curve and then be ok!
