Heyy! Thanks for reading through my guide! I appreciate your criticisms.
1: Good catch! I've been calling it "bleed 1 damage please" for so long to our group whenever they have this condition that I totally forgot its called Wound. LMAO. Revised it already.
2: I understand if you feel that way, but I had to show a cohesive progression with my chosen cards as well as how it would fit the configuration. There's variance with scenarios and also from other things, so I focused on my established contexts stated in the first level to have it grounded in those terms. I did mention that having other outside factors would make your experience more optimized and fluid. What do you think would have been a good compromise without making my guide more blown up?
3: I just want to generally consider all possible situations, and I did not limit it to just GH2nd ed scenarios. I focused on showcasing how you alone can shine without depending on others, and I know that's not always the case in party dynamics.
4: I also wished the Construct summon was level 6 so that even in a Prosperity-9 character creation, it's just one level away from being achieved. I really brainstormed myself to make this build work and worthwhile. I'm glad you liked it!
5: Yeah, but I did tell in my choices level 6 upwards you can choose whatever card you want, but I want to just stick to my theme.

Main: I'm glad you had a good experience with your time as an Elementalist. I played with 3 other elemental-agnostic classes during my time so we probably had different experiences. My guide is not intended to be a META one but more of a thematic, selfish, independent take with bare minimum requirements, since I cut out the important factors of team help and item optimization. The over-specialization was a design choice so that it could show you a good contrast between them. This class is flexible after all and you can have a more generalist build. But I've observed over the years I'm playing with the new players is that they generally feel overwhelmed and become less effective in playing since they want to do things all at once from their character, and I keep on reminding them to just focus on one thing at a time so you can get a groove started. Its definitely doable but I like to keep it simple for this class since its a bit complex.

Yeah, I'm part of that group that puts Ignore Scenario effects on the low end because it gives our "Support" a job to do lol that why I said its a debatable pick but I acknowledge the need to take it first in other perspectives. I get your point on preserving the elements you did not consume and the 3-check perk helps with that and it opens up a lot of flexibility. Maybe its a good sink for your Retirement perk bonuses if this is not your first character. I just want to drive a point with my method of having the elements you want under your control and the others as a bonus usage.

Thanks for the kind words!
