Vod with footage of the finals:

http://www.twitch.tv/guildwars2/b/523635495

Notice how at 2 hours 32 and 20 seconds the DD ele is forced to prefent a cap against a mesmer and a thief. 15 seconds later he not only survived but managed to get the mesmer in downed state, in a 1v2. The guys he faced are the current rank 1 and 2 on the teamq leaderboard, so they are top tier.

Notice how he not only has the dmg to kill stuff + is able to survive vs some of the best bursters in the game + add a lot of support with condicleanses and 25 migthstacks on everyone in bigger teamfights.

this was a zerker thief crit’ing you and proc’ing both sigils of fire and air. he hit you 4 times in a row assuming you didn’t dodge or anything? with soldier ammy that did not take all your health you must have been not full to start with.

6k isn’t much.. a thief could easily do that amount of damage from backstab. Also 2s should be plenty of time for you to swap to water or earth to counter the burst.

Ele’s take a bit more reaction time then other classes, you’re not playing a warrior now.

its not OP spec unless its played by OP player. people forgot how to deal w/these eles and will learn again. Most the damage is from might stacks which thief can steal and burst him down, or ele with AT…. even the shatter should remove dat might but if you let him get those stacks up he’s a killing machine.

I said 6k only because you did, so I was in response to 6k being a lot.. 8k still isn’t a lot.. swap to earth to get protection, dodge, then swap to water to heal.. continuously use skills because you have the signet on..

Taking a lot of damage isn’t exactly new to a caster class..

unviable? it’s very viable i said its not OP as in it doesn’t need a nerf. of course they know how to fight eles but this is a very new meta and so is this build – I mean it’s concept isn’t new but the re-worked skills and heal and celestial ammy and strength runes make this a new build that takes practice to fight no matter who you are.

if anything needs a nerf in that spec its the strength runes.

You dont see the fight itself since the shoutcasters lacked the awareness to notice it. But check the minimap and HP bars. Both trebs where down aswell and no teammates around untill after the mesmer got downed and ressed up again.

Actually i think it depends on something.
Not sure if its build or usage or gear, but i been practicing on my Nekro alt with a full well build, that actually destroys any class that depends on boons to stay alive (in short Eles), and seen an Ele (dunno what build…but proly not fresh air) that was like immortal vs me and 2 others….it took us like 6 mins to get him downed….

There are some bunker ele’s out there.. They do little to no damage, but can hold a point. I also have a medium build that can somewhat bunk.. It’s a very versatile class, people judge the class as glass cannon every time, which is the wrong way to think about them.

Also skill has a lot to play with it.. If you’re standing in a well.. as any class really, you should be considering moving out of it..

its an old build nearly the same like before.. some added stuff like evade-frames or blastfinisher doesnt make it complete new. it was out of control last time and with new celestial it seems out of control this time too.
and no its not only related to strength runes.. its a hybrid build that gets boosted with proper rotation from auras and aura related traits. to many protection uptime with to short duration to steal it. all strength runes do is negating the need for fury on aura to get higher dmg. its exactly the same monster like before and thats why it needs a nerf. its the equivalent of hambow on ele!

Okay, so a fix to skill that needed it and a re-vert of two previous changes after fixing some of the issues that were causing them to double to qaudruple proc, thus was making us broken. A trait that was pretty much the main condi-cleanse the class had having a 30s internal CD that was not stated (if it was 30 it may have been longer) being reverted, yes we are absolutely the most broken class in the game… The trait-line changes really do change how the build was to is now, as well the triple stun-breaks being gone makes a mad difference.

I will not argue with you that the build is strong, but I will argue with you that it needs to be nerfed. I agree with Soltice the problem is in how strong the Strength rune is, you would be stupid to not use it. As well with celestial having such a high Ferocity number, it sticks the crit damage 1% less then Valks and Zerker, the only amulet that has more is Cav. It isn’t on the class this time, it is on the utilities they gave us. Yet we still have a hard-counter with boon stripping. Get a well timed boon-strip to a burst and we can be a sitting duck.

Fix the gear then look at the class, becuase if they look at the class before the gear then we will be looking at ele in the EXACT same spot as it has been since they nerfed DD to the ground. You want to talk broken, look at the new Fresh Air specs… Oh wait same gear just different traits, how about burst guardians? Just trade cele for zerker… Now lets look at most burst classes, I think Strenth rune is your go-to pick for most of them. So tell me it isn’t the rune at the moment and I won’t believe it till the rune is fixed.

So tell me it isn’t the rune at the moment and I won’t believe it till the rune is fixed.

the gear is not the problem. its the traits. or better the reverts. this spec is simply to strong. all strength runes does is boost the dmg, even without strength runes the ele had won the fight against these 2 ppl. why? he outhealed them.. pretty sure he doesnt even touched 1 time his heal. with no icd on cleansing water + cantrips condis arent a problem. with high protection uptime he has plenty of sustain. and no boonstrip isnt even a matter of choice against that constant application of boons. and its not only celestial.. these build with current traits and skills would faceroll with cavalier and valky amu without strength runes.

esp if we consider the actual strong of strength runes that prop. the thief and mesmer had them too. so why they could not do enough dmg to kill 2vs1 that ele? your answer is strength runes on ele? just lol… what a logic.

if u dont think so. pick that build, learn the noob-rotation, go duel server and change your gear to experiment. after that u maybe have some sense of balance.

this build is op. u heared it here first.
im fine with bunkers unkillable 1vs1. im fine with hybrid beating pure zerker or condi-builds 1vs1 if geared right. but its not ok that builds exist with enough sustain and power to win undermanned fights. or that builds exist with good protection against both dmg-types to negate them enough to outheal the remaining dmg. and thats exactly what d/d does. strength runes or celestial just closing the time to kill from ele-perspective, but doesnt change the ground problem of that build. it was to strong and dead nerfed. now after they reverted the changes it is again to strong, even stronger thanks to runes + sigill changes. no balance in the meantime.

..

Okay for half a year now Elementalist is finally viable again and ppl are already crying for a nerf.

And its nowhere near hambow, cause its definitly harder to play.

lol sure. its not harder to play.. learn to stupid rotation thats all whats needed

I do blame the Strength Runes, it is effectively doing what the 2% dmg boost from boons was doing. As well I blamed Cele armor, but you just totally ignored that, but hey good news for you! You can play ele and learn to fight against it too! Oh wait, I think you just prefer to talk trash and deny that boon stripping works. My bad, should have tried talking to someone that has a clue how to play as a team.

Before Ele got nerfed to the ground they started to get trashed by boon stripping necros and mesmers, with theif DPSing them, yes it took two people to kill a bunker, imagine that! Look at guardian it can take 3 to kill them at times!! Are they over-powered? I saw a Guardian in a 1v3 down a theif, oh no and it lived to get team-support of me as an ele and a warrior! The blashphemy, A BUNKER KILLED SOMEONE! And guess what, the bunker was using? Strength Runes. Though he wasn’t running Cele armor, he was running something else. But you know, Ele does make the best use of Cele armor because we can get benefits of all the stats from burning and bleeds to condi dmg and healing for all the heals we have, as well the fericity power and precision helps up our dmg noticeably with that wonderful condi pressure we can push. Now add strength runes to that and you have over-powered. But hey we can always be like you and blaming the traits. But 3s prot every 25 in air and 40 in water and 7s attuning to earth, OH MY! That is so much protection right there, I think that is perma protection guys! Now mught, yeah ele can keep up that permanently, but that is why boon stripping is effective if you time it right.

But hey you said your fine with hybrids beating pure zerker or condi builds, well Ele is HYBRID that is what CELE is HYBRID, one more time HYBRID! So next time you want to talk trash, go play a DD ele with Zerker and tell me it can 2v1 a theif and mesmer, or try Cav and Valk, you will notice one of two things, you can’t down them from not doing enough dmg or they can kill you because you have lost to much HP from not having vitality. But hey, you can keep complaining and maybe they will just remove Cleansing Water trait and leave Eles to have to get condi cleanse through sigils to keep up with condi pressure. Though all that will do is cuase Ele mains to quit or re-roll yet again. So kitten all you want, you just don’t like eles and hate them being viable and want the class punished for the gear that was given to us.

EDIT: And go play based on rotation, I will laugh at you when people kill you because they learned your “stupid” rotation. In PvP it is only partly about rotation, on defense it is about knowing when to attune to what, as soon as you pop an attunement wrong you can lose the fight. And if you are bunkering you are playing defensive, thus why the condi dmg comes in to play from cele.

Vod with footage of the finals:

Notice how at 2 hours 32 and 20 seconds the DD ele is forced to prefent a cap against a mesmer and a thief. 15 seconds later he not only survived but managed to get the mesmer in downed state, in a 1v2. The guys he faced are the current rank 1 and 2 on the teamq leaderboard, so they are top tier.

Notice how he not only has the dmg to kill stuff + is able to survive vs some of the best bursters in the game + add a lot of support with condicleanses and 25 migthstacks on everyone in bigger teamfights.

hey Locuz thanks for sharing this build!

in the past i did not really play elementalist much as i die too fast before i can do anything productive to the team. : (

i’m trying this build now in 5 vs 5 official hotjoin servers and errr so far i think i’m having some fun with it haha! did not die so fast unless ganged up by 3 or more people. if 1 vs 1 i have a good fighting chance and can even down, kill them.

maybe i am rolling around with better players in my team. need to practice more to learn and familiar myself with the 20 dagger skills.

i swapped teleport for mist form though.
then leeching + battle sigils

thanks again!
