Guild Wars 2

Hi People,

I’m a returning player (9 month hiatus, woohoo!) and I’ve been reading up on all the new stuff, and builds for my Ele which I could use in WvW for solo roam or small (2-3) groups.
D/D was always my favourite, but I’m seeing a lot of people going on about S/D, D/F, etc, and I’m no longer sure what would be good.

Any advice is appreciated

D/D Elementalist is in a really strong place again in WvW, not as strong as the glory days near launch, but way up there now. A lot of people are claiming it to be OP now in WvW because of Strength Runes. I do not agree that it’s overpowered, but it’s definitely one of the top solo or small group things to play across all classes.

It’s always been “good”, but now it’s back to “great”.

Awesome, great to hear! Might try it out with strength runes and see how I get on.

What armor specs and traits are good now for ele? I’ve been meaning to start playing my ele again
