The fourth class/profession I will present with the info available to us so far is the Elementalist.
Introduction:
Elementalists have harnessed Tyria's natural forces. Their powers of destruction are drawn from an affinity with the four elements that make up the world. They conjure air, fire, earth or water to assault their enemies. As a scholar profession, Elementalists wear light armor. The Elementalist channels natural forces of destruction, making fire, air, earth, and water do her bidding. What the Elementalist lacks in physical toughness, she makes up for in her ability to inflict massive damage in a single attack, dropping foes from a distance before they can become a threat. Yet, despite her incredible offensive potential, versatility is what makes the Elementalist truly formidable.
Traits:
The Elementalist has the following trait lines: Fire Magic, Air Magic, Earth Magic, Water Magic and Arcane Power.
Weapons:
Two-handed
Staff — can cast different AoE spells with direct or lasting effects.
Main-hand
Scepter — casts various single and multiple target, medium range spells.
Dagger — emphasizes close range spells as well as self-defense.
Off-hand
Focus — provides powerful close range abilities suitable for cross profession combinations.
Dagger — provides supportive spells in form of energy shields, healing geysers and defensive AoE effects.
Aquatic
Trident — long range magical weapon for manipulating attuned elements underwater.
Although the Elementalist has access to only one weapon set during combat, they effectively have the ability to switch between four different skill sets by changing attunements. There are five possible weapon sets, giving a total of twenty when changing attunements. While underwater, they have access to the trident only, offering four weapon sets when changing attunements.
Armor:
The Elementalist is a scholar profession and thus wears light armor.
