Description:
Who are the Elementalists?

Unique masters of the elements that use the powers hidden in the Void used to summon creatures to instead attuning to specific elements and bringing powerful elemental magic into existence.
Elementalists toss away the restrictions of normal summoners, preferring to do damage themselves instead of relying on calling totems and incarnates. With an arsenal of 35-40+ skills at their disposal across different attunements, this class will have you bobbing and weaving between attunements to wreak havoc on their foes!

Welcome to the Elementalist class! A unique variation of the Summoning Skill!
How to play

Elementalists flow between different "attunements", aligning themselves with different elements to change all of their magic to the respective element type. For those who enjoy gambling, you start with and can choose to use at any time the Void Attunement, which changes all of your attacks to Chaos damage, with a few unsual effects tied to them.

Elementalists are meant to be skill-efficient, combo well with existing skills, and allow you to play with more magic type without stacking too much of any specific skill to FULLY utilize their potential. Scaling with the Intelligence Score and Character Level, these skills allow you to vary your builds, and if you wish, create a wonderful support map controller or even a damage dealing death machine!

Skills

This class introduces 40 or so new skills spread across the 5 attunements. Most are new creations, with some being re-created versions of existing skills (such as Laser Ray).

Vendor Locations

Nik’Liss, an experienced and wonderful Lizard Elementalist is ready to sell you all the skills you need to make full use of your abilities!

He is located in some fairly obvious locations, but for those that cannot find him, here are a list of his locations.

-Fort Joy: In the cave with the Elves, near the Lizard warfare vendor.
-Lady Vengence: On the lowest deck, near the Respec Mirror.
-Driftwood: Near the entrance to town, at the previously abandoned vendor post.
-Nameless Isle: On the beach as you land ashore.
-Arx: Near the blacksmith, standing near a post.

Oddities with the mod

To prevent some weird conflictions, some weird behaviors were added to the mod to make it work more efficiently. You may see these as bugs, but I assure you they are intended effects and are the best way I could find to get this mod to work.
1)Skills in my unlearned memory are placed on my hotbar when swapping attunements: This was done so skills are kept consistently aligned with their elements even while not in memory, as there is no scripts to force a skill change and not have it added to the learned skills.
2)Skills positions are reset every time I use an attunement!: The engine is the only thing that controls this, I have no access to fixing this as this is one of the "locked off" sections of the engine to us modders.
3) Cooldowns reset on attunement change!: There isn’t a script to force cooldowns or to keep track of cooldowns for skills. The 2 turn cooldown addition for attunements is there to prevent this if you’d like to have something to prevent it, otherwise it’s up to you to control your own playstyle.
4) Elemental Affinity Doesn’t Work?!: The way the talent works is by reducing skill cooldowns from the entire skill related to the surface. (IE standing in water reduces all Hydro skills). Summoning DOESN’T have a surface that it correlates with, you can’t get Affinity to proc.
