So I’ve seen a couple builds (not for ele, but elsewhere) where people have used Valkyrie to give their class some survivability and used Intelligence Sigils to proc the ferocity. Now I feel like that’s pointless unless you are doing a lot of weapon swapping and then immediately thought of ele and engi. Is this combination of stat set and a sigil a viable option for a power Ele build?

Not really sure but most ele skills are multi-hit so you won’t be able to really utilize it. Try using some marauder armors.

I use a Valk build with berserker trinkets. I end up with quite a bit of extra HP for my troubles and when I crit, it does a lot of damage.

Is it the best? Nope. It just requires a more burst oriented style where you’re using high powered attacks when you have the proc up. I find Scepter is best for this, particularly Fire and Air swaps. If you want another strong single-hit, there’s some in earth dagger off-hand.

To re-iterate: it’s not the best but I still find it enjoyable, moreso than my berserk staff build. It requires a bit of practice and you can still goof up and lower your damage.
