[SwedudeEPIC]

Two hours of content with great information, NICE!
I will send this to my friend whos new to gw2, thank you for all the work you put into this!

One help of a guide CDG, very detailed, to the point, just what this New player needed as I haven't played GW2 since about week 3 of launch 😂
Just got a new gaming rig & a friend is playing it atm so I thought it was about time I picked the game back up.
Thanks for taking the time to record/edit & upload this helpful vid! 💯😃

I avoided Elementalist for so long but now that i have leveled one I love it. I am doing things I have never done with other classes

[BigButtus]

Hey! Been thinking about getting back into the game, and boy am I glad I found your channel. Last time I played this game I was still in college, and now as a dad myself I'm excited to get back into it and see all the new stuff.

Hi. at first thanks for the humongus amount of work you have put into this upload.
I'm a 20 year veteran in MMO's but my last contact with GW was me in GW1 with my "55life Mo/W" farming Underworld. Looking forward to start GW2 as a ftp. If i like it, wich expansion would be the best to get into first? Is there a server you should better not join (i'm home in EU)? Is the playerbase more chill or more like the M+ in WoW ^^? As an aging dad with my hardcore raiding days with serverfirsts since Vanilla WoW long over i just look for a nice MMO where i can smash some Gitz or chill on a River andm enjoy fishing. Is this game for me? Thx in advance to all wich may answer to that :)

[Emacspirate]

Quite the compendium! Great work as always. I look forward to version..3? Come 2024 *timestamps are the perfect touch.

[Morbid_Kaos]

well guess no better time to watch this considering me and wife just started playing GW2 for the first time been watching all ur other content on this game as well

[sneaky]

Brother, after watching a tons of videos to find my class none of them gave me the information that i needed, yours is juste perfect, every questions i had about a few classes are now understand.
Ty for ur video it helps à lot !

[blastmanutz]

In my opinion ranger has the best longbow (skill set) while rev IMHO opinion has the best shortbow - a great blend of physical and condition, smooth and responsive skills. Unlike let's say warriors, their longbow feels like launching trebuchets.

[KapTeiN.]

Went I did start 2 months ago it was a pain to find a good video to explain what each class do and what to expect, this video is great for new players & for players who want to try another class, thank you for the work❤

[Notsram]

Me: "What class will you do a guide for next?"
CD: "Yes."

[NeroGGxD]

nice work dude, didnt know what to play after 2y of a break with gw2. you helped a lot! One Quest: where ios the elemntalist build you mentioned?

[allmyinterests]

Youre the man! Best guides out there! Massive help for a new player!

There is a right way to play engineer, at least in open world. That way is all flamethrower, all the time. If you're in any other game mode, however, this is also the wrong way.

My biggest hurdle in playing elementalist was sobriety, or lack thereof. My ele is the second character I made and I was usually playing while drunk at the time. Inebriation does not lend itself to the memorization and coordination you need to swap between attunements at the correct times. I got to level 22 and gave up. Years later I came back to the character while sober and fell in love with it. It's now my main. If you don't have a clear mind while playing elementalist, downstate isn't just going to be part of your rotation, it's just going to be your only combat state.

[tamantije]

Thank you for this video man. Like first, then watching.

[japzy]

almost a 2 hr video guide?! perfect video for traveling

[heretykalsciences]

I find necro dagger really good to switch to when the enemies make a approach. I generally like to wear creature's down with the staff, wait for either my minions to get a foothold, or wait till somebody gets too close with low health, and then run in for some fun.

Either that, use my staff to fortify an area, slurp up conditions from my team with the plague signet, and then launch it back at whatever caused it.

[funpuns]

You had me at snipers. LET’S FUCKING DO THIS!!!

[marinhrabric]

Love warrior double mace. So good when you spec into it and so underrated. I don't see anyone using them.


27:17 wouldn't that be stability? I don't think resistance has anything to do with cc.

I love the arcane skills on ele. Arcane shield saved my ass many times
