Question about GW gods

[Elfbowmaster]

This has probably been asked before but I couldnt find an awnser.

The gods we now know favor a certain class like:

Balthazar - warrior
Melandru- Ranger
Lyssa - mesmer
Grenth - Necro? or Dervish?
Dwayna - Monk

That leaves the elementalist/ritualist/assassin/Paragon a bit alone. I was wondering if there was any special reason for the absence of these gods.

To be precise, Elementalists take power of the elements from all the gods (Fire=Balthazar Water=Grenth, Etc...)

Dervish worship either One god of choice or all, it is still unclear (see the forms of the gods)

Dervish and paragon also seem to split elemental powers given to Elementalists (see the weapons splitting Elemental damage blades and elemental skills)

Assassins and Ritualists appear to be god-less

Partial and incomplete, but my contribution :p

[Serendipity]

To be exact gods also have elements.

Balthazar - warrior and fire
Melandru- Ranger and earth
Lyssa - mesmer
Grenth - Necro and water
Dwayna - Monk and air

So fire ele are favored by Balthazar and Water Ele by Grenth.

Assassins are following Lyssa.
Ritualists are following Grenth. (Spirits being rather dead)

And I don't know for the 2 new classes.

I believe Paragons will follow Balthazar (Fire and warrior like shouts), and the derviche either all the Gods or Grenth (scythe being a death symbol.)

Assassin: Lyssa and Grenth
Ritualists: Spiritual Ancestors and Grenth
Necromancers: Grenth
Elementists: None, yet all, seeking knowledge and power from all
Warrior: Balthazar
Mesmer: Lyssa
Ranger: Melandru
Monk: Dwayna
Paragon: Unknown. Although highly ritualistic, from what we've seen in the NPE, they never mention the gods. If they follow conventional forms of worship, it is likely they worship Balthazar
Dervish: The dervish worships all gods co-equally, as the description of the class describes.

[MadCatvanHelsing]

You get Paragon buffs from Balthazar and Dwayna, maybe for their "holy-general" way:P

[Quintus Antonius]

That's true, they are described as "Guardian Angels" so prehaps, like smiting monks, they worship both Dwanya and Balthazar.

[Elfbowmaster]

Ok thanks, didnt now that about the ele.

[Quintus Antonius]

Yes, the information on the elementist comes from a ghostly elementist in the Crystal Desert. He says something along the lines of what I and others have said.
