Guild Wars 2

What’s up eles,

I’ve made a new video of my roaming adventures on good old D/D ele in WvW. All in all I’m not 100% satisfied with how it came out, but since I probably won’t have time in the coming months to remake it, I figured I’d put it out anyway.

The point of it is mainly to show something functional in WvW, since I know many are looking for that. I have Seven to thank for showing me it works, and figured I’d pay it forward by showing you.

Any questions or criticisms are welcome.

Nice video man. It’s good to see that the power creep is slowly being nerfed and that d/d’s gaining some of it’s sustain back.

I might give it a shot. Honestly, non tempest feels so weird to me now, but it sure was much more fun to play than spamming air / earth overload.

It’s good to see this kind of action again.

Watching the intro you didn’t LF to the floor above in SMC for the jukes >_<

What food do you recommend for somebody who isn’t made of money?

I was looking for amulets, runes, and a replacement sigil for Sigil of Bloodlust and this is what I came up with for PvP:

Paladin Amulet
Rune of the Herald
Sigil of Strength

Keep the traits, Signet of Restoration, utilities, elites. I played around with it and it has power AND nice burns. Heals are pretty great too. You can also replace Rune of the Herald with Rune of Leadership I think. As for Sigil of Energy, maybe replace it with Sigil of Transference to make up for the Healing Power loss.

Anyway if anyone wants to, try the set I came up with out to see if it’s a viable build for PvP. I’m rusty and I suck atm.

@Bezerker: Yeah, ever so slowly we’re getting somewhere. Daredevils are still rather absurd though. But it’s infinitely better than it’s been in a long time.

@cgMatt: Probably my favourite flash spot in wvw, but don’t think I wouldve gotten away with holding onto flash as i got cc’d

@Cecilia: I was thinking of writing something about this, but basically this food is one of the 2 ridiculously broken things the build abuses to run with the big boys. If at all possible, you should try to get it. If not, I’d recommend any of the other damage reduction foods that redirect from this page https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Mussel
I believe they’re a good kitteneaper. If they’re still too expensive, probably saffron bread/lemongrass or lifesteal food.

@Abelisk: I tried something very comparable, except with rune of strength and sigil of leeching, and it’s not nearly as effective. No matter what amulet you pick you end up missing either vitality, toughness or healing power. I might try it a bit more though.

thank you for crediting me, i really appreciate it dude!

I used to live for d/d ele, really glad to see this!

Does not having a move speed bonus get annoying though (when traveling)?

So did I! Was very fun to revisit it.

As for movespeed, elemental attunement and updraft will give you 100% uptime of swiftness. It’s a little annoying to spam through attunements, but totally workable.
