So, like, when's my elementalist getting buffed? *rolls eyes*

I want PBAoE spells that can be used to inflict conditions and ignore armor and gain energy and self heal...

You left out a non-massive aftercast and 70 AL instead of 60.

I would like to know what other people think about the damage potential of the paragon in comparison with the warrior

Do paragon spears miss that much that you can justify its damage (and its damage skills).

I mean, having a nonelite Eviscerate (Vicious Attack+"go for the eyes!") ,some executioners equivalent (blazing spear), a ranged weapon, more energy, a better armor than a warrior and more utilities, what are the reasons that i should stick to warriors?

(I don't say that the paragon is overpowered, i just wonder if the warrior ist atm underpowered in comparison.)

The problem with Paragons is their attacks are easily dodgable. My guild ran a Paragon spike a lot on the weekend and we found the utily and protection to be great, but some targets were hard to spike down because they were moving.

I think cruel spear is a better DW machine, since in most spikes the guys going to be KD'd. I found skill slots at a premium when I tried my Para in GvG. I didn't think to use blazing, though, I was useing Depleting. I think if the spike is supposed to be fast that's be a better option.

In any case, trying to hit a moving target with a paragon isn't fun. Also, he doesn't have more armour, a warrior does, at least vs the damage that counts. He barley has more energy, and has the same energy regen. He also doesn't have as good a self heal, and (feel free to correct me) very few KD options. He also needs to go to some other class for an IAS, which limits either his utility or his damage. So while I loved playing the paragon, and I really want to find a home for him in a balanced build, not some lame 6 r/p thing, I don't think he can really replace a warrior, at least in respect to damage and surviability.
