The Elementalist | Guild Wars 2 Professions

[tougenokaibutsu]

DAMMIT WHEN IS THIS GAME COMING OUT???? i want it now!

[Wolvkey]

I've watched many videos on this game and thought that it couldn't seem any more epic. You, sir, changed that with your commentary. Well done. You've earned another sub.

[Kmhrc]

CAPTAIN PLANET! wahahah :)), aaahhhhh childhood memories

[D3nied01]

Best intro ever xD

[MrDonkeypower]

Avatar :3

[GalacticLlamas]

Definitely my Profession of choice. 

[Starlightpaw]

[Nicolos26]

Elementalist, I choose YOU

[JJJHS53]

Bahaha, captain planet at the beginning earned you a subscriber. =)

[misapheonix]

what a start & so true! :D

[IrwinJohnFinster]

Is that Ted Turner on a zip line?

[BlimeyGames]

The fact that you can combine spells with other class's spells reminds me of Dragon Age: Origins. Some of the mage combat in that game was so fun :]

[3Phill3]

WoW made me hate mages for there lack of power but i love messin with magic

but this game makes them look like a tank!

[BlimeyGames]

@3Phill3 Have you tried Magicka? It's nothing like an MMO, but you used the term "messin' with magic" and Magicka is the perfect game for combining ridiculous spells to make even more ridiculous spells. xD

[3Phill3]

@BlimeyGames I have tried magicka completed it with a friend :D ITS AWESOME thats where I started liking mages and stuff

[TomS126]

Right when I heard earth I knew what was coming.

[ivarstyle12]

WHAAT I cant choose between Elementalist , Thief and Mesmer! what shall i choose!

[MasterRYU01]

@ivarstyle12 Easy. choose them all.

[expired8]

[ffsboom]

Last year Skyrim and now GW2? The game developers sure are pulling some serious last games out their hats before the end of the world later this year!

[TehMastere]

I was gonna play ranger.. but now... i saw this... FUCK! If i can say, IMA FIRING MA TORNADO!!!

[GoomNguyen]

Captain planet lol

[Chonicle2]

I was totally set on Necromancer for my first playthrough but now i dunno, ele just sounds awesome

[KurtisShane]

arcane blast x3 Arcane missles vs Tornador, Thor hammer, Water, Fireground a901238hdjkash I play wow and will most likely play till GW2! this game looks awesome if anything i play MOP along with GW2 i mean GW2=No Sub!!!

[lelandwhitehead56]

@KurtisShane your problem is that you play an arcane mage.

[oxane240]

@lelandwhitehead56 The problem is you have a problem with his problem.

[MasterRYU01]

@oxane240 The problem is you have a problem with him having problem with the other guy's problem.

[adragonballzgt]

@MasterRYU01 The problem is you have a problem with him problem that he having problem with the other guy's problem.

[HyshinArcanius]

This was my Prof in GW1, and I an falling in love with it all over again <333 XD

[bawlzdeeep]

lightening hammer!!

[ImBillyMaysBYTCH]

Im going to make a elementalist named captain planet now

[1337pudding]

@ImBillyMaysBYTCH Not if I beat you to it ;o

[joenstromhelleberg]

Wow.. how are they gonna balance this class and make all options viable? Don't get me wrong, it's awesome that you have a ton of options but to balance them all against eachother will take so much time that the beta would be going on for serveral years. :P

[1msk1]

@joenstromhelleberg It has :)

[Darkchriz]

man i was seriously the anti-guildwars camp but this shit opened my eyes...like the variety and play styles are insane.....the only thing im worried about is balance...

[epicguitarsolo]

UGH TOO MANY CHOICES STOP GIVING ME SO MUCH TO DECIDE ON...

fuck this game is going to be epic

[clouduck]

@epicguitarsolo I know i'll end up having all 8 professions at level 80 at some point (Yeah i'll have to buy more character slots!) Not to mention the new professions that will be released in future (and races)!

[SobeMT]

Wind - Holy fuck a fuckin tornado!

Fire - Goddamn fire bird, holy shiiiit!

Earth - 2012 is happening

Water - Is that a puddle?

[dukorider1]

ele for life :)

I burned an awful lot of bodies in the jade quarry, loved every moment of it.

[iOwnYouBro]

@dukorider1 ahhh... Jade quarry... Those were the days.

[VesperBloodwing]

Oh my god.....Might have to make an ele....

[MbassetFM]

'There are atm over 80 individual weapon skills.' Hmmm I see, *starts to pick up shield and put on heavy armour.

[jrg305]

Next time you say Mesmer say it like Dr. Evil from Austin Powers :P The MEZmerrrr (pinky at corner of mouth)

[jrg305]

I watched the video again because I'm HELLA bored...and I wanted to hear you say "wind" again at the beginning :P

[jrg305]

You're adorable :P

[katq4444]

norn elementalist - here I come ! :D

[Faarao69]

i love Magicka and i think i will love... EeeeeLEMENTALIST !

[Terrafuror]

I've always loved to play the support/healer character in multiplayer games. I can't freakin' wait to give other players my extra skills to use :D

[ForrestAnthony1]

god damnit I don't know which class to go T_T

[sinkamaru]

@ForrestAnthony1 i know how you feel

[Empir37]

@ForrestAnthony1 you're not alone my friend...

[Gonicksomestuff]

What video is the footage at 1:01

[nightraven4]

damn DotA's invoker ! seems like the hardest class to master so far

[WolfSnowWhite]

HEART!

[Jannie171]

Alex, i got a qeustion like if you are a Elementalist HUMAN and you wanna play with a Necromancer mm some other race like a CHARR or so at lvl 1 is that possible??

Btw Great video's !!

[Dimundbac]

@Jannie171 After completing your race's tutorial which is no more than a few fights, there is an asura gate that you can access that will take you to other capital cities.

[2nd3rd1st]

1:00 Where can i find the gameplay video with the mutherfucking flaming greatsword???@??

[Akrytos]

@2nd3rd1st /watch?v=VwO354PQWXk#t=1m24s

The video with teh "mutherfucking flaming greatsword!!!"

a REAL Elementalist know all Gamplay vids :P

hf^^

[2nd3rd1st]

@Akrytos Thank you!! I'm a Theif all the way! :D

[DeviousWizard]

Holy mother of exploded testies!

[LedZeppPF]

holy mother of god!

[costelking]

Where is the Mesmer?

[stevo322]

mesmer pls

[Trollingdruid]

Too much captain planet, lol

[MrFox1231]

No one fucks with Heart >:3

[CKproduktions]

The video a day seems more like a video each and other day... Ohwell, looking forward to that "suprise" hes got for us ;)

[Stumigod]

I loved the beginning. Reminded me of a WoW boss named cho'gall. There was a boss called the acendrant council that were 4 different people, each one of them a different element. When you get close to them, the final boss of that raid named cho'gall shouts, "FIRE, WATER, EARTH, AIR in this hilarious voice ^_^

[Chromaticfalcon]

I think I see what you did there alex. Elementalist is too long to say in such a badass way so you replaced it with comedy. Am I close?

[Chromaticfalcon]

Oh Man. I want to play elementalist because of elemental magic and variety, but I Don't want to be part of the Popular crowd and play something overused. Dilemmas dilemmas D=

[G0DZ0FC0D]

@Chromaticfalcon Nah, once the BETA comes out then I say every class will be well balanced out in population.

[Melkiyad]

gieb meh mah mesmah

[IAmMarco99]

Where's Mesmer?! :(

[leythz]

where mesmerr! : (

[Itachi21x]

fire water air and earth

fucking elements

how do they work?

[SubjectSeize]

wiiiiiiiiiind

[Gonicksomestuff]

So many people are gonna play Elementalist, because it's the most basic fantasy MMORPG 'wizard' with LOAAAAADS of spice added :3

[Melkiyad]

@Gonicksomestuff mm spice... to hell with that! I'm playing an engineer! Your most basic fantasy MMORPG 'support' with a flamethrower added >:3

[Gonicksomestuff]

@Melkiyad :P

[Melkiyad]

@Gonicksomestuff :D

[shovingkids]

WTF! Now I don't know which profession I really want! -_-"

[zelgriever]

@Opening: Oh, you.

[SuperMusicCrazed]

I love the way he said Wind

[losenikromah]

W.I.T.C.H?

[MrDrowsorcerer]

@losenikromah Get some taste.

[ReddGaming]

All of the classes in GW2 look great i know everything about each one but i am going to be a Charr Ranger :)

[howiloggedin]

Elementalists

Elementalists everywhere

[IAmMarco99]

SERIOUSLY WHEN IS THIS COMING OUT I'M DESPERATELY IN NEED OF A NEW GAME.

[rockasskicker]

@IAmMarco99 My guess, closed beta will stick around till the end of January, Open will stick around till February or March then gw2 release date will be March or April. Well that's my guess, If there is still a lot of content to develop and finishing touches then beta's will be longer. Not many might agree with me rather play gw2 when its complete and ready so I get the best possible playing experience :)

[Itachi21x]

heart = mesmer

[bokka0101]

what's your end song?

[holodock]

Yeah but if my memory serves me well Ele from the original game required a HUUUGE power supply so it was basically useless with all its powers and no juice to use them :D

[DisturbedKoala]

@holodock Unlike Gw1, Gw2 will not be having an energy mechanic for skill usage.

[KalecAmagosh]

best intro EVER!

[Khazro]

Should've added that Elementalists do not have a quick weapon swap as other professions do, same with Engineer, they do not have a weapon swap either.

That's because they already have 20 skills with just having 1 weapon set, Elementalists that is.

[DisturbedKoala]

@Khazro He did say at 0:40 that the class is limited to one weapon set in combat due to those same reasons he specified as well...

[LegendaryManiacs]

@Khazro He did.

[Smallavelle]

i am so excited!

[Zehkari]

Nice video. Where is that table list of skills from Alex?

[Zehkari]

@Zehkari nvm gw2 wiki :D

[Jman1266]

lmao found my name for my elementalist!! CAPTAIN PLANET!!!!

[HCSR2]

Hmm, WoW pallies already throw lightning hammers... Elementalists can summon lightning hammers... Think I found my favorite GW2 class.

[mcandymadman]

Necromancer makes the elementalist have a run for its spells.

[DisturbedKoala]

@mcandymadman I can imagine a skilled Elementalist and Necromancer going at it right now. Both of them would be shouting, "Why don't you fucking die?!"

[nubowns]

there's about to be so many ele's when this game comes out -.-

[Palidor]

@nubowns Well yeah, it's the elemental mage. People love those. xP

[DisturbedKoala]

@nubowns I was already planning on playing Elementalist first as it's the class I started out with in Gw1, however my main will most likely be a Ranger.

[nubowns]

LMFAO THE INTRO

[EndOfKevin829]

oh my god this was so epic, no words just tears!!!!! NO WORDS!!!!!! JUST TEARS!!!!!!

[reuntes]

best recap yet

[IAmMarco99]

Looks like I found my main.

[keeganz1029]

Seems too overpowered, not playing it...

[Zookeeperpaul]

@keeganz1029 ..... you ignorant fool. You obviously know nothing about GW2 and how much they are focusing on balance.

[keeganz1029]

@Zookeeperpaul madbro?

[MrFrostbite4]

@keeganz1029 Not going to say its going to be completely balanced but it will be more balanced than other MMO's

[Shamadamun]

Holy shit thats one hell of a unique class

[huntrokilla]

i got the chillz watching this.....good chillz....

[kikodamota]

Alex where can i found that image at 0:30 , i really y want to take a close look.

[DisturbedKoala]

@kikodamota Just search for the official Guild Wars 2 Wiki then type "Elementalist Skills" in the search box.

[strat066]

i lol'd hard at "Heart!, wait what?"

[MonkeyboyGWW]

o fk me, wow hired chuck norris for their adverts and the adverts are on the side of youtube. Chuck norris is now a pussy in my eyes

[deyantrade]

Alex what would you suggest for most fun and powerful class between elementalist necromancer and mesmer?

[TheDeralte]

If wind has a lightning attack..... .... ... UNLIMITED POWAAHSAHSHASHASHA

[TheChrises16]

omg i found my main.

[jamesterfire]

@TheChrises16 same here man, i love killing people and monsters with fire :D



[TheSive23]

@TheChrises16 so have i ;)

[ilikelemonpie1]

I was planning on being ele...but this seals the deal

[ismadaramadara]

@ilikelemonpie1 me 2 :)

[Palidor]

Is it viable enough for an Elementalist to only use one element? For example, just wanting to play a Wind Elementalist? Or do you have to make use of all of them?

[Milennin]

@Palidor ArenaNet said it is possible to go through the game using just 1 Element, but you would miss out on a lot of fun...=p Also, you wouldn't be as effective as a player using all 4 Elements.

[DisturbedKoala]

@Palidor Possible to go with one element but wouldn't recommend it.... I myself would like to stick with Air magic too actually (as my character is kind of an rp sort of thing), but considering the nature of this game it's likely I'll be using all elements. I'll just be favoring the usage of air more than the other elements.

[Palidor]

@DisturbedKoala Ah, too bad. I had thought it'd be the same as sticking to one weapon-type for the whole game, but I suppose using one element is too limiting. That's alright though, all the elements seem to be pretty amazing.

[gibril4]

Isn't water for support? (since you can also heal allies :o)

[kynsijalkainen]

I think Alexrediculous is making a elementalist. :P

[SquirrelShock]

@kynsijalkainen He said either Warr or Eng. :P

[DerUberSkillz]

Thor approves this video!

[Speedy92286]

Best. Intro. Ever.

[Pyzlnar]

OH GOD. Captain Planet FTW!!! XD

[TheDorkSide777]

By your powers combined, I'm the Elementalist!

[AgnarrArnfinn]

Four digit hours on my Elementalist in the first one, think I'm definitely heading Elementalist again, especially after this video.

[MrAmonus]

so why did everyone think you were dead alex?

[TheDeralte]

When I saw that Charr going NUTS WITH DAT BIG FUCKING SWORD OMG! I knew what profession I would be play!

[TheDeralte]

Intro certainly was easy to fap at.

[KimboRamboFin]

So if ele only has 1 weapon set, does it mean that in combat I can't use for example staff skills with fire attunement and scepter + focus skills with another attunement? I mean, if I like the specific staff skills on fire but I don't like the staff skills for water, I can't change the weapons for different attunements?

[Vewen0000]

@KimboRamboFin Nope, you can't swap weapons IN combat, only change attunements. You can't mix weapon swaps with attunement swaps.

[KimboRamboFin]

@Vewen0000 I wish you could bind different weapons for different attunements... You would still have the same amount of skills avaible in combat, but you could still have the freedom of choosing which skills you want to use for each attunement, if you know what I mean. Thanks for the answer anyway.

[toastisimo]

@KimboRamboFin yes..then u cant swap while beeing in combat.. its because as an elementalist u allready have access to more skills than the other proffesions (if u have unlocked all 4 of the elements)

[InspieringEpicVideos]

So i'll first be a Elementalist and then a ranger or warrior!

[leythz]

0:46 nooob ?

[actellimQT]

Protect the planet, or I'll f***in' kill ya!

[Erde04]

Captain Planet FUCK YEA!

[mestido]

Cant wait for that game! When, when, when!

lol

[MissDreamSundae]

I'm going to play the hell out of the Elementalist...

[Angedemonist]

Ele will be my profession in GW2 ! Attunment system is insane.

[xxYdoxxx]

Aion OST and BlazBlue OST XD

[Gonicksomestuff]

Urrgh... Arrrghhhhh.... ALEX WHY YOU NO MAKE IT EASIER TO CHOOSE! :(

[darko264]

The way you say "wind" at the beginning just makes me crack up every time i hear it XD

[Musicarta]

I've been waiting for this one; it has always been the profession that I intend to play - and it still is :)

[pratolli]

Ok, I'll play as elementalist.

[TheSaggyKid]

u changed all the titles :P, may i ask why ?

[Summereed]

Ow c'mon now you made me wanna play elementalist as well :< ;)

[Duncham]

Dat elementalist theme, best track in GW!

[CKproduktions]

alex... our god... our savior

[Altaranalt]

It's gonna be either a elementalist or ranger. So hard to pick!

[Chloiber]

Dat intro...

[Lux355]

Been waiting for this one!

[Dgnarus]

With about 2000 ingame hours as an elementalist in GW1, I wanted to be an elementalist for a long time already before this video. Now I'm even more excited.

[C4Blizzard]

Human (Female) Ranger, Asuran(Male) Guardian, Charr Engineer, Norn Warrior, Sylvari (Female) Necromancer, Huma(Female Elementalist), Human(Male) Thief and Human (Female) Mesmer. Those are the characters I plan to make starting with ranger (my most beloved class in any game) and then going random.

[TheShad0w007]

Dude I subscribed to you recently but I can say this:

If you keep making those high quality videos that inform us and you continue to do this

when GW2 comes out you'll become quite popular.

P.S Elementalist FTW
