The Ele 2ndary Question
OK GUYS EASY QUESTION. I DO NOT NEED STUPID ANSWERS BUT..LOL
WHAT IS BEST 2NDARY PROFESSION FOR A ELE? I USED NECRO BEFORE WAS FUN BUT KINDA BORING. I AM USING MESMER NOW TO HELP KEEP MY ENERGY UP. I AM A FIRE ELE I MAINLY USE METEOR AND STUFF LIKE THAT (YES I KNOW aoe ARE NO GOOD ANY MORE. THIS IS HOWEVER NOT TRUE. IF YOU KNOW HOW TO USE THEM PROPERLY.) SO I AM A FIRE ELE WITH GOOD ARMOR AND A KINDERLOCK/rangos flame wand. HEALTH IS 455 ENERGY IS 78. I AM EQUIPED WITH SUPERIOR VIGOR AND SUPERIOR FLAME RUNES, AND MINOR ENERGY RUNE.
ANY ADVICE ON TWEAKING MY CHARACTER OR ON THE 2NDARY WOULD BE GREAT. I MAINLY P V E WITH THIS GUY.

Ok guys question.
What is the best 2ndary for a ele? I have used necro before and it was fun but I need the energy. I am using mesmer now to hold my energy up. I am a fire ele ( i know AOE are no good. That however is not true if you know how to use them right.)I have good armor. using a kinderlock/rangos flame wand combo. Health is 455 energy is 78. I am equipped with a Superior Vigor and Superior flame rune. And i also have a minor energy rune.
Any advice on tweaking this guy and its 2ndary is great thanks.

Yeah, Perm Mistform and Perm Obsidian Flesh does do wonders if your a E/R. I played E/Mo for the longest time and almost always had Essence Bond on the Warrior for I was a Nuker and what have you.

monk is a great secondary, because you will be in the background doin your stuff, and when someone dies and you rebirth, all u usually get is "thx man" and not the "omfg n00b keep nuking fag" you might expect

caps got nothing to do with me being smart (tho as most ppl I like to think about myself as a smart person). Caps stick "worthless noob struggling for attention" label to everything you say. I can tell you that I never join or invite people who spam local in caps, even if it is the last monk im lookin for... I just skip that crap altogether, because i know that person typing in caps in 99% is a waste of my time and abuse for the group.

there is none. You change it for monk to do solo farming or ranger/monk/me for pvp. But for dedicated nuking you dont need any secondary... in theory... Practice shows that it is easier to find group as E/Me since most pugs convinced that only way to nuke is by using arcane echo (which if you ask me will not ever replace glyph of renewal on my skill bar untill eles get some decent aoe damage elities).

I solo farm with Ranger, its much better than monk - also its not just about a nuker - I prefer Earth now since Ive been farming Titans with it and Water is great for Ettins.

wonder who the noob was that had such a pathetic life he had nothing better to do then make rules..lol
i agree about groups though i will not take someone in my group who wastes there time fussing.
i like how my drill instructor told me. since caps is as some say yelling.
i am not yelling i am simply projecting my voice so people can hear me clearly.
anyways back to topic. i was thinking of going el/mo but does the monks have any good energy replacemnt skills? as far as AOE goes they work fine for me i get 112 dmg per and they do not run from me.if you know how to use them properly they are not totally ruined.
thanks for the info guys. what about my runes and stuff is it set for max potential? opinions welcome.

You could go with warrior for healing signet (no energy healing) and a few other defensive tactical gems. Warrior comes up to you looking for a fight? Bonetti's defense to recover your energy then nuke him. Or you could take a melee skill to help you take out other elementalists.
In the right circumstances and with the right build, any class combo can probably work out pretty well.

i don't know if you can combine obsidian flesh/mistform with traps or not, since i'm not too sure if the "take no damage" part of mistform prevent you from being interrrupted. if it does, then you can make yourself a obsidian flesh/mistform trapper and trap everything to little bits.
and by the way, "projecting your voice" in an internet forum is a waste of time. it's also rude to type with all caps. the things you learn from your drill instructor are valid only on the practice field/battlefield.

you can still be interupted with Mist Form - though I used to hit them with a water hex, Ice Spikes or Burst then run away a little to lay a trap while they walked towards it

the drill instructor's job is to ultimately prepare you to be a soldier to kill as many people as possible in battle before eventually dying yourself. we do not need that in everyday life.

well i see you have no real understanding of the military. but hey all is good. you probly know more about Guild Wars them me.lol but the real job in the military is to make you a man to teach you to act like a man. to give you skills to use the rest of your life. not just skills in battle. which by the way you are also trained to defend your country so people can have freedoms such as to make posts like we are and to play games like GUILD WARS..lol
but seriously lets not turn this into a debate over this please. we all got views on this. j
