what will happen if u try to use SoC to get one elite skill while u r having one elite skill with u?
the SoC fail? or the captured skill can't be used right away?
just curious

Good question.

If you cast a SoC while you have an Elite in you get both, until you go through a waypoint or enter a new town. Then you only have access to one of them.

My experiance has shown that you keep the most recent one equiped, but there may be another system than that.

You may learn to spell words in completion and use complete sentances, however, before the next time you post.

His post was coherent - you're a bit too demanding.

I believe its the left most elite is the one you keep the right most is droped when you enter a zone.

Infact, now that I think about it, that is what happened last night to me.

And yes, his post is coherent, but it gave me a headache.

BTW the person refered to by someone in the direct sense, without need for formal designation, is spelled you, not u, thanks.

People also seem to forget it's in the damn rules of the board.

riflex · Jun 07, 2005, 04:23 AM // 04:23

From my personal experience, you get to keep both elite skills until you PURPOSEFULLY try to put in another one and/or move the existing ones around and/or otherwise alter your current skill set. If you leave it alon though, you can have 2 elite skills for an indefinite period of time.

Keure · Jun 07, 2005, 04:29 AM // 04:29

I've done this and when I got back to town I would lose one of the elite skills from my current skill set. However, I was able to use both the just-captured elite and the one I brought into the area indefinitely until I did go to town.

eA-Zaku · Jun 07, 2005, 05:34 AM // 05:34

So until you get to town, you are wielding two elites? Pretty nice

Rajamic · Jun 07, 2005, 07:14 AM // 07:14

Yep.
Though in theory, with some luck, a Mesmer could have 4 slots filled with elites temporarily. Thanks to Arcane Echo, Arcane Thievery (that's where the luck comes in), and Arcane Mimicry on top of their own. I was thinking it was 5, but I realized that would require Echo, which is itself an elite.

Edit: Could get 5 with a new capture, though...

Mandy Memory · Jun 07, 2005, 07:55 AM // 07:55

you can have as many as you want until you enter a town

arabidopsis · Jun 07, 2005, 09:01 AM // 09:01

thanks. I will try to test it tonight.
And as to Chev, I will try to write better and use complete word/sentence next time.

Let me put this into perspective: You can instantly use a successfully captured skill, however, if you move to stop it, or get knocked down/interrupted, you lose that skill and will have to wait 30 seconds to take another shot at it.
