Hi, I’m thinking of creating a new armor set for a D/D condition Elementalist. I did find a few options for the prefixes, but my question would be; what would be the most powerful option for a PvE condi build. Viper or trailblaizer in combination with runes of the undead, runes of the berserker or runes of the elementalist. I would try it out myself, but i don’t have enough gold to buy a full set. Just some advise would be nice.

Viper/sinister will always be the most powerful as condi duration is king. However, if you really want to go condi you might consider a different class than elementalist, as Ele condi options are extremely limited

its mainly viper. Sinister is good to add. I run a mix of mainly viper a bit rabid and a wanderer amulet. I maintain 1600 power and with food and traiting fire and earth i can actually go over 2k condi stat. But i usaully only go to about 1700. I maintain 30-40 % crit rate and 2500 armor. But its a hybrid i use PvE and WvW for pure glass its viper/sinister mix.

Looks great for PvE. But it´s very squishy so be careful. Also theres not much condition removal too. Don´t know if its required.
If you use that agaisnt a player you die.

It would be purely for PvE, maybe some dungeons but nothing PvP related. I’m trying to get a bit more survivability than my glass canon build, because solo I just die a lot.

All signets? You can do better.
For instance, Glyph of Elemental Power is really sweet for condi builds. Glyph of Elementals doesn’t bring much, I’d suggest trying the Fiery Greatsword.

Also, the Tempest line is pretty lucrative because of Fire and Earth overloads (and problaly “Feel the Burn!” too). Generally you shouldn’t worry about surviving in PvE, the content is easy enough to tolerate you going full glass against it.
