Guild Wars 2

So im beyond bored with staff ele, and need to breathe new life into my ele, im hoping HoT can do this but for now, im going to try out another build. I like D/D on paper, but in game, its a little underperforming. I was never big into S/F or S/D so im going with that!

Which one do you guys swear by and why? S/D or S/F?

I would pick focus, because when you want to go scepter, you will most likely go for fresh air and fresh air isn’t very good without a lot of crit which means you will be probably running berserker and that means you need more defense

also you can check this topic where I got many explanations and good tips

S/D have a little more burst damage on his might rotation. It also easier and faster at pre might stacking. That’s why that’s a popular choice in some record run where the group stack might before the boss is ready.

S/F have more utilities and have a better might stacking rotation in fight. But the rotation have a daze which can screw up a Icebow burst if you do it wrong. It’s the most popular in most group since it’s more versatile.
