Q:

Sup guys,

Well, when the developers change the earth skill that was 10% of our vitality is converted to CD to 10% of our toughness is converted to CD I was sad, because dont exist a Dire Amor level 80 in the game so I can’t make a build Full CD with Vit, CD and Tough.

So, my question is:

Is better I change my ele “full” condition (CD, Vit and Power) to full power or is better I change him to CD, Precison and Tough?

What’s better? Full CD or Power? Builds etc.

Power all the way. Ele can barely deal any cond damage. It works, but if you go full power/crit yall see numbers which make your eyes pop if you have played condi before.

For condition elementalist I think Carrion is the best status (power, vit, cond damage). Even though you lose some cond damage from the earth trait line, you are still doing more overall damage.

How do you do condition damage with an elementalist to make it rival power? I am talking 10-15k DPS for power here. Condition goes up to like… 2-4k?

He asked about condition gear, not If condition is viable…

Elementalists work better with power builds. Thats well known.

Power. Eles have poor Condition Damage. Focus on getting gear that is Power Primary for general play.

For specifically dungeon builds, you can look at the guide in my signature.

He asked if he should change to full power, and the answer is yes. Judging from the OP I guess he wants to PvE. I´m not much of a build expert there, but I´d recommend the stats Power, Critical damage, toughness, healingpower and enough precision to get to 50% critical chance.
Full berserk would work too, but might become tough to survive with.

condition Ele isn’t viable & Eles already need all the stats they can get, so condi dmg is basically the lowest priority.

downed state is bad for PVP

Hmmm, I think it’s a bit viable. In PvE, kitten no. But for roaming and kitten could work. It just doesn’t have the spam that other classes have with it, so someone good with their cleanses can really go to work with you. But Drake’s Breath… that skills insane!

I use a super secret hybrid build to much success!

edit: talk’ ’bout them daggers.
