I'm not sure if this counts as a tip, but elemental can feel a bit rough sometimes levelling/starting out at max level, definitely push through it because it feels much better once you get past that than it used to imo.
i'll be looking to give a few classes a go in various content/settings, although its pretty close to my dissertation deadline/exams so i don't have a huge amount of time currently, but its something i'll be up for in the future
i'm fairly comfortable playing shadow on priestpeen, although not with much variety in honour talents, and it will be a few weeks before i can dedicate much time to getting it up to 50 ect
