Guild Wars 2

I have a few questions for veteran eles. I will ask 3… no 4! I will ask 4.. no 5! 5 questions!

1. What’s the best weapon set for condi?

2. Best elite for condi?

3. Best armor rune for condi?

4. Best weapon (above and underwater if it’s different) rune for condi(duh gonna stop saying it now) ele?

5. Best aquabreather? is there better than rare?

useful info may be I prefer to use fire (I use them all, but someone asked me that in the past), and I have all the HP stuff including Tempest. ty!

1) Dagger Focus.
2) Don’t do condi, terrible idea on ele, that said Fire Great Sword or Elemental is alright, mobility and a minion. All of Elementalist’s elites are pretty bad in comparison to other classes so as long as you don’t pick Tornado you should be alright.
3) Don’t do condi, but ele has a lot of their condi damage in fire and bleed. Rune of Balthazar is an interesting one as it increases burning duration.
4) Sigils? Sigil is sigil of Doom and maybe sigil of energy? (the one where weapon swap gives you endurance to dodge with).
5) For aquabreather there is only ascended, don’t bother getting it because it is overly expensive and honestly underwater combat is mostly abandoned in any future content. Keep the rare one you get from the story.

I notice you want to do condi. Ele is probably one of the worst classes for condition damage. That said dagger/focus is an interesting combo. Signet of fire and earth add low cooldown condi application combined with Earth traitline. To be perfectly honest I think you should try engineer if you want top of the line condition damage. Lots of things you can do much like Ele and it has a very viable condition damage build that runs off of Dual Pistols and Viper stat gear.

Yep. Condi tempest is great. I do it diffrent and use earth not arcane for WvW.

1) Dagger Focus like in the video for burn. I use scepter/focus
2) Fire Great Sword wins for me.
3) If you go dagger and burn Balthazar. But i prefer nightmare or even traveler. Nightmare can be comnined with trapper for a total of 25% condi duration on all condies not only burn.
4) Sigil of Doom is good, i use a good portion of precision and run torment and earth (or generosity but this is expensive). For pure burn in PvE use smoldering to save food money.
5) Not so important. I think i have an exotic condi one.

Video explains it great. Its propably one of the best PvE tempest build shown there.
