Guild Wars 2

So for the trait trees, I was thinking of leveling out both earth and fire (i generally use a D/D elementalist) and I was wondering if anyone has used this or has a better idea to put the other trait points in (i just got to level 21, haha).

Water / Arcane for defences (boon on swap attunement V in arcane is very nice) Water is for water 15 when you get that second trait line unlocked (and soothing mists)

Air if you want Air I Zephers boon, very good with D/D

Earth has a nice 10% damage within melee now as well as that extra 21 toughness.

and Fire is pretty meh at end game, haven’t run it low levels to tell you how it goes (other then Lava Tomb so I will always rally against melee).

Idk how this works with D/D (I don’t like that set up) but I know Fire/Earth works pretty well with S/F and Staff, gives some nasty hybrid damage with Carrion Gear, but you do give up a bit of defenses…

This is how I use a 30/0/30/10/0 build and not be terrible:

Conditimentalist

Works in WvW and PvE. Needs a few tweaks to make it work in SPvP notably since you don’t have food or access to Mad King runes.

I’m sure the OP said he is only 21 … so that would be a 10 0 10 0 0 build he was referring to making.

BTW, I absolutely hate buildcraft.
Into the mists or gw2skills is much easier to read

The reason I like Buildcraft is because you get a nice set of stat summaries on the side and it allows you to manually edit the stats as needed. It’s also pretty accurate and predicting condition damage and it lines up perfectly for me. This makes it perfect for comparing X instead of Y to see what kind of increases you will see and what the costs are.

The only downside is because buildcraft is never updated anymore things like the new Charged Quartz Crystals have to be manually plugged in. For example Signet of Earth is dated unfortunately and it is only listed as 90 instead of 180 so you can add in 90 Toughness and it’ll update your Effective HP.

Its the layout that I dislike. I like seeing my traits lined up like they are ingame. And my skills lined up like in game.

Build craft does allow you to see everything though without having to mouse over.
