[[Catalyst]] is an [[Specialization#Elite_specializations|elite specialization]] for the [[elementalist]] unlocked with the [[End of Dragons]] [[expansion]]. Catalysts were historically the protectors of the [[Cantha]]n [[Empire of the Dragon]]. Relieved of their duties, they now upgrade their traditions with [[Dragonjade]] to create their [[Jade Sphere]]s: reservoirs of magic charged up through spellcasting that catalysts can tap into to summon wells of power to both damage enemies and provide [[boon]]s to allies. <br />
<br />
They learn [[augment]] skills to temporarily empower themselves with elemental forces, reducing the recharge of these skills if cast inside a Jade Sphere channelling that same element. Catalysts can wield [[hammer]]s, a heavy weapon that allows them to literally whirl the elements around them for passive bonuses, and then fire these elemental forces at their enemies while striking with this blunt weapon. Thanks to their Jade Sphere, catalysts are capable of empowering their allies with powerful boons, or go all in on the offensive.<br />

{{Quotation|Catalyst|A brilliant ember! A swift stream! A thousand storms! An ancient mountain!}}<br />
The [[Jade Sphere]] can be summoned in an area, creating a [[combo]] field and granting [[boon]]s to allies in its radius based on the catalyst's [[attunement]] at deployment. Deploying a sphere requires 10 energy, which builds up through damage. Each time you do damage you gain one energy, skills hitting multiple times or multiple foes will provide energy for each hit. You can hold a maximum of 30 energy, which you do not lose between combats.<br />
<br />
By default, you will not gain energy from hits while any sphere field has been placed and is still active unless the trait [[Sphere Specialist]] is chosen. An additional way to gain energy while a sphere field is active is through [[Energized Elements]].<br />

{{Quotation|Official site|Catalysts have revitalized ancient techniques for channeling elemental forces—with a few modern improvements, like their jade tech spheres.}}<br />
{{quotation|Elite specialization lore<ref>[https://www.zebrapartners.net/gw2-end-of-dragons/ Guild Wars 2: End of Dragons – Press Kit (GW2 Beta 2 Media Alert)]</ref>|Catalysts were casters from a bygone era, working to protect [[Cantha]] and the throne from enemy threats. They wielded intricate apparatuses called spheres that were used as conduits to channel their immense power. This technology has been revitalized once again—with a couple improvements! Catalysts imbue ancient magics into their [[Dragonjade|jade tech]] spheres, calling upon imagery from all over [[Tyria (world)|Tyria]] to concentrate into a powerful burst of elemental energy. Whether they're calling upon the swell of an ocean storm or a fiery beast flying through the canopies of [[The Echovald Forest|Echovald Forest]], the catalyst's strength is as strong as their will.}}<br />
<br />
Catalysts were once the protectors of the [[Cantha]]n [[Empire of the Dragon]], the front lines of their armies, until they were decommissioned by the [[Ministry of Security]]. Originally using conduits called spheres, made out of Obsidian and other potent metals, catalysts now use [[Dragonjade]] to create their renamed [[Jade Sphere]]s. These spheres charge up through spellcasting to create massive wells of power which take the visual form of the Canthan [[Celestial (group)|Celestials]]<ref>[[Yoso]]</ref>: [[gww:Hai Jii|Hai Jii]], the [[Phoenix (NPC)|Phoenix]], [[gww:Kaijun Don|Kaijun Don]], the [[Kirin]], [[gww:Kuonghsang|Kuongsang]] the Turtle Dragon, and [[Tahmu]], the [[Dragon]].<br />
