Guild Wars 2

Hey guys,

So I’ve been playing Elementalist for a while now, and I was just wondering what the ideal stats are to focus on? I always feel like Elementalists should focus on Power, Precision, and Condition Damage, but then I see everyone is saying every class should just go Power, Precision, Ferocity. At one point I feel like I should go those stats since Mesmers tend to put more conditions on, so they should go Condition Damage more over Elementalists, but I don’t know. Any advice?

I’m the absolute last person to give build advice so I won’t share but there is an Elementalist forum that will people who can help.

Pretty much everything became outdated information since the 6/23 patch.

Yeah lol, hard to say if I should still go for condi, especially since ANet already knows its OP.

Zerker should still be a safe bet since Elementalists are still one of the top direct damage classes in the game. Though, I’d probably hold off till the builds becomes more stable since we’ll see a lot of balance adjustment the next few weeks.

It’s not going to get nerfed to hell though. I have a condi ele that was pretty decent before the update. She rocks now and she’s going to stay that way.

I think I’ll give her a lengthy run when I get home from work.

Really? I thought warriors did more damage and were the direct damage dealers.

Elementalists have pretty much always been able to build the top sustained damage in PvE.

Oh, well in that case then, I guess I am going to build Power / Precision / Ferocity

Warrior had some of the lower end personal DPS for around a year now, but with the 6/23 patch they have some of the highest personal DPS once again. However, thief and elementalist both still blow warrior out of the water.

In all cases, berserker is still best.
