  • After watching this video, and watching skill progress as the video moved on, I now want to play an Elementialist over a Ranger now.

  • shapeshift into a bloody tornado?!

  • is the elementarist not op than for example an necro ? :S

  • @loechaste

    He depends on his buffs and necros and messmer can easily debuff him. Especially Messmer are perfect against mages as they have debuffs which make dmg when the enemy is casting spells.

  • @Earthplayer This isn't wow or the original guild wars, mages don't exist and mesmers/necros can't run full spammable de-buff bars with 5 dis enchants

  • @Ronanh193

    Wrong, play the beta, you can for example go for 2 debuf spells on weapon for necro and there are 2 other debuf spells (one well, one normal) for the right skillbar. --> 4 disenchants.

  • Elementalist is sick :o

  • sad that he sits in fire entire time ;(

  • pissed me off that he didnt switch to water and heal. Could've not died at all that game.

  • It looks like the elementalist is stronger then the other professions.

  • @ThegloriousNiels They are so squishy its dumb, it doesn't show them gettign focused worth shit.

  • here's the Elementalist 101:

    Fire Attunement is mostly concerned with Aoe damage

    Water Attunement is mostly concerned with healing and support

    Air Attunement is mostly concerned with single target high damage

    Earth Attunement is mostly concerned with armor and defence

    attunements have passive and active effects for when you switch to it from another attunement.

    sticking to 1 attunement is bad, change attunements based on the situation at hand, though you can specialize in one more than others

  • @008abdullah switching attunements while skills are on cd (fire) wont affect same skill number in another attunement (water)?

  • @EnzaY91 nopedy nope.

    that would defeat the purpose of having attunements don't you think?

  • The announcer "enemy has captured the so and so" voice is so annoying. It sounds like a military shooter game more than a fantasy mmo.

  • @Randomshizzclips What would you rather it sounded like? Cause I mean, it's a battlefield so...it is military in a way...

  • Will they all have the same armor on battlegrounds or are you going to have your own just dyed red/blue later? does anyone have an idea?

  • @KimbleeCrimson As far as i understand it for this kind of scenario pvp you have all buffed up to 80 and so is the equipment so it will be the same i guess. But for WvW you have only stats buffed to 80 no skills and no equipment will be given to you.

  • my god elementalists have so much damage

  • OMG I keep switching between warrior and elementalist can't decide!

  • lol everytime i think about leaving the video to go do something i hear his voice and next thing i notice it has been an hour

  • very nice , i hope the release is coming soon!

  • GW2 is a must.. thank you for uploading

  • i really enjoyed this video thanks for posting =]

  • you really are a good commentor haha you make me so occupied xd

  • byebye wow :D

  • Shit, this class has such a high skill cap. Yum.

  • @halorechfan Flame war starter detected

  • :l

    

  • looks like a class for me

  • @TheHidds

    1) Raids will be much more of open world, they are called Epic events and it's much more crazy. The combat is very fluid (too fluid to be precise) and responsive.

    2) The art style is great, it gives off a painterly feel to it not only that but each concept art you see is what it looks like ingame.

    3) Once the game is out they will put in free content and they will release expansion, and you don't need to buy GW 1 (unless you do it for the HOM stuff).

  • @wildrmz00 what is "HOM" stuff?

  • @MrJohnSherry Hall of Monument. Accomplishment and stuff from gw1 that gives you a few perks in gw2. Nothing that makes you more powerful though.

  • this game looks really nice but three things make it questionable... 1) No raids - i love raiding and hard difficulty combat 2) i dont know about the art style, i prefer artstyles like rifts. 3) Do i really need to buy expansion packs and the original guild wars (becuase of the hall of monuments) ?

  • @TheHidds for your 1) there are different types of DE there is your normal, elite, and possibly heroic (which apllies to the endgame content of the continent of Orr) these will be crazy ass epic events that people can join in and will be hard (very hard for Orr) plus there are 30+ dungeons experiances avaiable (12 dungeons experiances for max level including the zhaitain one) there are 4 modes for the dungeons (story mode and 3 other explorable modes) the explorable modes are hard...

  • @TheHidds and reqire teamwork will the story mode is relativey eaiser because it is introducing you to the dungeon. But if you calculate all of these up GW2 really has better endgame than any other game. So it really does not need raids.

  • @TheHidds "and require teamwork 'while' the story mode is relativey eaiser"

  • @11:02 He sounds like the Trollface!!!!! :D

    LMAO!!!!

  • I'M NOT HAVING ANY OF THAT NONSENSE!!!! :D

    I love this guy... He is hilarious!

  • I hope that they dont make a class OP

  • i don't think i was so undecided to play a class before. I played all kinds of mmos ...and i always knew what to go . For example in wow , for the first time i touched that i game i knew i want to be Undead rogue , played like that for a long time.In this game tho ...i don't even know what to go ...char war , norn ranger , human elem , necromancer? to many awesome classes and races . Love this game, hope it will be as good as i expect it to be.

  • @Molhedim I'm in the same boat as you bro, I have no fucking idea what I want to be, all the classes look like fun!

  • Anddddd STOMP! <3

  • this game makes me.. explode

  • WOW, you can already tell ele's are going to be the rather BEST class in gw2. CANNOT WAIT XD

  • @4RMORMECH juging from a vid only showing ele... hah

  • @lovites303 nope ive seen other vids. those classes are beast too, of somewhat, but every video i have seen with ele's pvping, they always end up getting triple kills. just like in wow, still the mage owns the land....in every game ele's or mages always own.

  • Magnetic aura? Can anybody say MAGNETO!!?

  • @bjermane1 Magneetooo.

    #jessecox

  • got an orgasm watching this :D gw2 is gonna be the most epic game in history :D

  • is every castable spell able to be casted while walking? in that case is there a way to cancel casting? :D if i start casting and then realize i need to do some other spell do i have to wait untill the casting ends? might sound like a stupid question, but i want to know :D

  • @TheSmokezalot most spells can be cast while walking, but a few requires you to be stationary. I think like in GW, you can maybe hit the ESC button to cancel? Idk, don't take my word for it.

  • There's no mana in GW2?

  • @Rickjsl No, none at all. There is a mechanic/resource for defensive play, but the number of spells you can cast is determined by your range, your position, cooldowns and your movement.

  • @SagelikeOne Awesome! i hate mana xD It's a nice change

  • @Rickjsl That's a good question

  • isnt he a human?

  • @KatzeArtemis The gameplay is of a Norn, a humanoid half-giant of the Shiverpeaks.

  • you're so fckin good at this game even before its released haha

  • @MyBrawnie yea it's like he knows every skill right away just by reading it :D

  • @MyBrawnie well.... not exactly :D /watch?v=I_TDMoOCyHQ

    thats a warrior gameplay, but as u can see the driver is much better, dodges ect. tb only spams the fire skills and they work because every1 else are noobs too :D

  • I got 1 question, will they also release it for mac?

  • @Tester2244 no, sorry

  • @gezas4134 are you sure? cz i thought i heard that they will :o

  • this is just too good of a game to wait for.

  • The only thing that disturbs me is the graphic, i mean its nice, but the characters look like giants compared to the map, i mean compare them to the stairs for example, otherwise the game looks fine

  • @TheSmokezalot That's because hes playing a Norn, which is a giant...

  • @TheSmokezalot He is playing a norn. They are the big people. and the other people in this vid are normally charr which are also big. They are fighting in a map filled with human made buildings so it will be sized for humans.

  • @MrMowi28 true that make sense, good point mate ty :P

  • @TheSmokezalot He is playing a Norn dude, they are just big...

  • I'm jelous of TB! I wanna play too. :3

  • writing a comment

    pressing Post

    realising you arent signed in

    video resets, comment fails.... FUCK YOU YOUTUBE

  • im watching all of TB's GW2 videos to satisfy my GW2 urges, im gonna need GW2 soon tho.

  • Should have used air :P It's single target. Oh well. He had little time to play.

  • out of all the classes the FEEF is soo good!

  • release is on 30.6.2012.....u can look at amazon!!

  • @Koxi02 Thats just an estimated date made to encourage people to pre-order, ArenaNet hasnt confirmed a release date yet.

  • @Koxi02 No. Amazon released this date because they want people to preorder with them before any other site. This release date is bull.

  • @Koxi02 That's another piece of idle speculation, sadly. This has been featured on GuildWars2 twitter even. Sadly it is not fact, nothing has been announced yet.

  • 11:00 LMFAO his elementalist is dying yet his character still feels the need to laugh and be jolly as fuck, omg I lol'd.

  • I know it's a minor detail but I love how the characters stand with their weapon.

  • @Poisonberry8497 It's sometimes the minor things which make the game that much better than all the rest. :)

  • Use your elite skill and your signet! DHFABGADFUGNADFGDAFGADGFHFAGHN­JGFSHFSGHDFSGH

  • Annoying to hear you say 'Fire Elementalist' when you're supposed to actively switch attunements according to the situation!

  • norn warrior or norn elementalist?

  • I think a lot of people will forget in with this video that the elementalist still has many other weapon sets with different ability per element

  • omg i dont know which profession to play!

  • very entertaining

  • anyone? no? ok. DOUBLE KILL!!!!!!!!!11!!11oneone!11!!

  • Remember guys that the stomp is only for one profession, note sure which, but each profession will have their unique killing animation

  • @langhalsen Your wrong.. So far every profession has the same animation for the finisher.. But they did Change the animation for the G Star demo..

  • @CJI517 Yeah, you're right, and I knew it, but I forgot that it was a placeholder for the other animations In the final product, they will be different for each profession.

  • @CJI517 I forgot to WRITE that it was a placeholder, woah, messing up my 2nd comment.

  • @langhalsen They said they might make them different.. Not that they would.. I can see them making a uniform animation.. So its easy to spot.. And to know whats happening..

  • It's a shame the players aren't quite used to running while attacking and casting yet, it'll make for more interesting pvp

  • What WoW fan boys need to realize is that it is not an insult to say this game is going to be better (which it clearly is). This is a brand new game. Better production, better graphics, better class balance, better pvp. It's just newer, and is expected for this game to be better. WoW is old and it's expansions are just attempts to keep up with current games... It had it's time. All games die, so let it rest. Diablo will be out soon and you'll have something new to wank about. (so will I)

  • How do you kill people in this game once they've been downed? Do you need to go up to them and stomp them?

  • @MrCypher100 Yes, if you want to kill someone who is downed in PvP you need to either keep attacking (but they can attack back while downed) or stomp/finish them.

  • @SagelikeOne Awesome thanks a lot :)

  • WHY WONT YOU COME OUT!

  • I love the norn so far....they are like the vikings, I think a warrior class would fit.

  • @Bain0o Definitely. 8 foot tall heavily armored Norn charging at you would be quite scary.

  • Thank you for a male Norn Elementalist video! Searched for ages.... but was worth it!

  • don't underestimate the power of a caster class

  • I wanted to see more Lighting and Earth :/ not many videos of them two. But still great vid :D Great jump!

  • Mounts are nice looking travelling thing and for exploring.. kinda like in Skyrim.. u could just fast travel everywhere but its nice simetimes to use ure Shadowmere =)

    And its great that u dont need to watch ure mana burning out or something like that but u can just bring fire down enemies :D

  • Why does everyone want mounts? There is no reason why they would bring depth to the game. GW2 has instantaneous map travel.

  • No mana btw ??

  • @Pienimusta Nope. Don't need it, so it got dropped. Which is a GOOD thing.

  • man i watched this at least 20 times already: GIVE ME THE F*** BETA!

  • do they have mounts in GW2?

  • @TransIronFire98 Not on the initial release is what the devs said. This kinda hints that they might add this in a expantion though.

  • @TransIronFire98 Don't know but if they do they're not going to be flying coz the devs say you can skip too much stuff and ruin the sense of scale.

  • @TransIronFire98 no but you can quick travel like in Oblivion or Skryim.

  • @dlj3cs2 Correction.. You can quick travel like you can in Guild Wars 1..

  • This looks... really fucking good.

  • It is true that WoW isnt as good as it used to be, but still we should thank blizzard for setting the standard of MMO's so high, i'm sure it has had a heavy influence on this game.

  • @DEDICATlON3 sooooo well said.

  • @DEDICATlON3 nope gw2 is inspired by tf2 and gw1 plus some random fps maybe a little bit of wow too.

  • @allu834 dont forget MOBA

  • There is a lot of single target for the elementalist TB, but you only played fire.

  • "hey guys your exploding! isnt that a wonderful life experience!" lol

  • They are still advertising that fucking onlive.... Ahhahahaha!

  • Just wish they could change the animation of stomp from stomping the ground as we are seeing here to actually stomping the enemy where he lies.

  • @Ripperjack74 They have. This footage is of an older build that the current one. If you check out my G-star-footage there is some in there.

  • Is stomping on an enemy when they're down the only way to finally kill them?!

  • @FiduciaInDio You can leave them to die, you can just kill them using your skills, or you can use the finishing move. The stomping animation is simply a placeholder at the moment. In later demos they are impaled by a battle stranded.

  • @allgamesarewowcopies Lol, you again. Fucking retard. It seems like your just searching "Guild Wars 2" and hating on every single GW2 video you find.

  • Is everything always so dark in GW2? That is one thing that annoys me about most games and it is that they make things dark. What about in the normal PVE world, is there even a sun?

  • @emptyglo Yes there's a sun...

  • @emptyglo There are many other GW2 videos that show sun light; it isn't a completely dark game. This is just footage from a PvP match where it's at night and cloudy.

  • @emptyglo It is filmed with a hand camera, you idiot..

  • SICK!!

  • everyone trying to compare wow to GW2..dont even try..GW2 is in a whooole different league then wow..and clearly the league above

  • @patrickberger333 you can compare two things that are on two different leagues just by stating that fact, genius.

  • Use the tornado? Seriously o_O

  • @allgamesarewowcopies but WoW is a casual boring grindfest game for people with no jobs/friends. Have fun grinding to get best pvp gear while I'm in gw2 with the same gear as everyone else so I can show that I have skill :)

  • *DROOL*

  • @allgamesarewowcopies GW2 will never have 12 million "subs" because it's free to play once you buy the game.

  • @allgamesarewowcopies OOHHHHHH I came in contact with a troll how exciting also i found wow incredibly boring your just trying to justify your purchase of subs or your just trolling like a little bastard with nothing to do because he's bored... Get a life mate i honestly dont give a fuck about your opinion because were not friends go start an arguement with someone your own age try hard troll.

  • OMG! All these classes look fucking AMAZING!!! I'm torn between Elementalist, Mesmer, and Theif >.<

    Maybe even a guardian?!

  • @allgamesarewowcopies When WoW has 12 million subs you're allowed to speak to us.

  • @jnthn1984

    I've played WoW for 7 years. It's a dead game that is progressively going downhill and digging their own grave with horrible expansions and casual bullshit, and have lost 1 million subscribers, so it's actually 11 and not 12 million.

  • @ONAStonards Actually according to the last statement by Blizzard it is closer to ten million. And given the recent release of Star Wars I’m thinking that may have dropped more, perhaps nine or even eight at this point. I agree WoW is on its last legs, so while I don’t know what post of mine you are responding to, I am pretty sure you misunderstood it. No worries though; we’re on the same side after all.

  • @jnthn1984

    I was on pretty much 0 sleep, so I have no idea.

  • @ONAStonards If it's a dead game why are you still playing it? I gave up playing that bullshit after 4.5 years. Aion at least is more challenging, albeit not a good game either due to lack of support and zerg v zerg balance.

  • @jrg305

    I haven't played it in 4 months. It's turned into a casualfest, everything is easy, and it has zero community.

  • Comment removed

  • @allgamesarewowcopies You do realize you should be ashamed of yourself, right? WoW was great, it was something to be respected. It was a star that went supernova and for a brief moment shined brighter than anything else in the sky. But just like all old stars it’s going to fade away forever. Its natural, nothing lasts forever. And you; you are a disgrace to WoW’s good name. Let the game die with dignity, and stop dragging its good name through the mud with your idiocy.

  • This video made me want this game.

  • this video isnt on the GW2 playlist

  • @bjoern007 It is on my GW2 TB+Yoggcast playlist though, so you don't miss anything.

  • @allgamesarewowcopies blatant wow fan who cant let go of what is allready dead

  • @allgamesarewowcopies fuck off wow fan

  • @allgamesarewowcopies Oh my god you’re still trolling GW2 videos? Get a life man. Or just go and play WoW if it is so great. Either that or just admit you are as bored with that outdated piece of garbage as everyone else; no other reason you would be bothering with an “imitation” game like this. The fact that you are here trolling means you know damn well that GW2 is going to be the last nail in WoW’s coffin.

  • I like to say that GW2 controls like an MMO and has abilities like a Dota (tools that you can use in diverse ways to adapt to changing situations), but its physical interactions are like an FPS (dodging projectiles, attacking from out of range, etc.). We are really happy with the way we were able to blend these three styles of play—and hopefully you will be too. -Jon Peters, Systems Designer

    Fun times ahead....

  • Looks really cool! a lot more intense than WoW PvP

  • @allgamesarewowcopies but... but... WoW doesn't have anywhere near 12 million subs anymore.

  • @allgamesarewowcopies It's sad that your'e that much of a fan boy that you even make that your name on youtube. Open up your eyes, WoW is losing it, TOR and GW2 are the future.

  • Question, are there any resources in GW2? Like mana or energy? Tbh I feel like it would be sick if they were just gotten rid of and CDs and the GCD were the only restrictions on abilities.

  • @btbrotherton No, no mana. There is an energybar used for defensive play (dodging and so on). Powers have CDs, and some powers/skills link together, so you have to plan your play accordingly.

  • This looks so awesome, ugh, between TOR and this my social life is gonna be 6 feet under. Mission: Find girl to play computer games with me before GW2 is released, or I'm not getting ass for a couple years.

  • you forgot to use your elite, would have been epic to see tornado vs lich form.

  • hey look, no dislike bar :D

  • Playing WoW.....do people still do that??
