Tank, Dps, Healer: How do you think you'll use your Arcanist?

LadyLavina · January 2023

Title says it all.

I tank in pvp and pve so I'll likely slot my Arcanist with healy tanky goodness, but what do you think you guys will do?

Pvp

It's too early to say, will have to wait for the PTS. But from the small preview that we got, the skills look a bit too clanky to weave with, so probably not a dps, more likely a support role.

Just like all my other characters: optimized for solo play.

Bruiser in pvp

I only PvE and plan to have them specced to all three roles using armory. I'll likely spend most of my time on the "DPS". I put that in quotes because I can imagine like all classes at the moment to be optimal it will rely heavily on weapon skill lines as well as other universal skill lines, and I intend to roll as many of the class abilities as I can as they look rad.

I am pretty sure that it will be so far out busted and broken class, so just one character for all content (PvP, PvE tank, dps, healer) will be enough.

Lumenn · January 2023

Optd for solo and cyro. I'll ACTUALLY try to figure out if one of my other 14 characters has a natural counter to the class and deck him out as an arcanist hunter, since there won't be many of THOSE in cyro.....😐

I want to make one to Tank with.

Also, make a build to see how far I can push harder group content, solo.

Just another Tank

TaSheen · January 2023

Solo DD, all I play.

tohopka_eso · January 2023

Hybrid like all my others

Ragnarok0130 · January 2023

As a healer main I'll definitely use my new Arcanist as a healer. I'm really interested on what new skills they will bring to the table, what buffs/debuffs I can provide and how they will synergize with my co-healer's classes.

Vrienda · January 2023

Depends on the abilities but a magicka-based character I level to 50 then abandon. Happened with the warden and necromancer and I really really tried with the latter.

Writs, after the shine wears off.

I won't know until I see and test all the new skills and know what they do.

OBJnoob · January 2023

Hard to say without being able to look at the skills, but I'm sure it'll be some kind of tanky brawler dps, because I pvp.

Agenericname · January 2023

I tend to play one of each and use the armory to change between specs. The idea of leveling, doing guild skill lines, skyshards, etc, again, makes not bothering with it at all more palatable.

All.

All my charcters have dual roles.

Every Stam is DPS and Tank
Every Mag is DPS and Healer.

FeedbackOnly · January 2023

Like a green version of warden healer

BlueRaven · January 2023

DPS I used to have many tanks, but since they hit so weak in pve now, I basically made all but one a dps.

Olen_Mikko · January 2023

It's gonna be all of them at once until they've made enough sales and it's time to nerf it.

Shihp00 · January 2023

whichever lets me use the tentacles.

I'm not quite so organized and consistent but generally this.
