Hey,
So ele was my first 80, but I soon moved away and now main mesmer! I love wvw roaming either by myself or as a small group and have recently grown a bit bored of the slow speeds of my mesmer! I have roamed with a theif for a while, but really want something new, that I can learn. So I thought I would see if my ele could be any use to fill this role.

So what I’m asking is:
1. Is D/D ele viable for wvw roaming,
2. What sort of builds are available,
3. Could someone link me a viable build,
4. And does anyone have any useful tips.

Thanks

Is a shell build that works doesn’t have to be exact to this just hit close to 2.6k armor, close to 2k power if you can, 30% crit chance (pre fury), and 16k hp. Fill in your gear for what you like but those are the usual marks to hit for d/d roaming.

Yes it is viable to roam you won’t be 1vXing to many good players but that goes for any class.

Wouldn’t this be a better option though? Slightly more power, condition dmg, ferocity, and hp. Little less healing power and toughness.

Those numbers look really good, have you tried it solo/group?

That’s a build I made for myself to set a goal in terms of which gears I’m going for. I did a lot of experimenting with the build editor. I’m pretty close to finishing so I’ll keep you posted but I’m sure it’s a solid build across solo/group roaming. You could use condition food instead of power if you want but keep the sharpening stone. So it rounds out both condition and power. Bowl of Orrian Truffle soup. Brings up your Condition dmg to around 430. And gives you a hp boost. Depends on what type of fights you get into.

If were going along those lines then wouldn’t this be a lot more helpful?

Same trait setup but instead of Strength runes I use Hoelbrak for the -20% condi duration along with -40% condi duration food (a lot cheaper too).

Sure I’m missing out on “+7% damage while under the effects of might”, but I’ve found these reductions to be a life saver. Plus my dps hasn’t suffered at all, I still hit big numbers.

If you’d like you can switch out one trait line and add it towards water for aura share if you’re looking for more group support. That’s what I’m doing at the moment.

This is what i’m running atm. Will probably switch to strength runes though, if the price ever drops to a reasonable level.
