Hell0!

So, in this latest installment of my Elementalist Spellbook I’m doing a guide on my recent S/F Fresh Air build. I’ve been playing this build for about 3 weeks now, and I’ve been tweaking things here and there. I just thought I’d like to share it with you guys.

This build has been tried and proven in tournies already. Most recently in a 3-0 against ApeX (winners of last ToL, shoutouts to my boys) in the DPS tourney.

It is quite the long video, so bear with it there is a lot of good information I think I provided for you young ones.

Thanks a lot for the support. Hope to do more of these guides and videos for you all.

Im totally new to ele so i gave this a go. As soon as i got my keybinds down for attunement changes things picked up.

I feel more comfy with s/d though that s/f so any tips on that. Also i keep forgetting to swap back to air. I always find myself thinking i need to do a bit more damage then going oh…air attune haha.

Very deadly and the survivability for a zerker scholar is pretty amazing. quickly becoming my new favourite class.

Yeah it’s surprisingly durable, but more because of the fact that you can pre-preemptively avoid damage rather than sustain damage over a period of time.

Also, I answer all of the big questions via the Youtube comments, so don’t forget to check that for more information.

Quick Question: if you are not focusing on team support, would you reccomend dagger offhand?

You may do more damage but you lose control and survivability I find

I am not a champion but with focus on tpvp i win much more than with dagger offhand. The advantages of focus is that with skill in earth and in water (4) i last much more and so i do more damage for my team. For example playing against a thief or with a thief around, for me , is simpler if i have focus . Probably it is a problem of mine but i find difficult to finish all the classic fresh air s/d combos … and if it misses i find really hard to survive

Yeah to add on to this, S/F has more survivability because when you take mist form/arcane shield you can cycle through your invulns more often. It basically allows you to become untouchable at certain times and timing when you can engage/disengage is very crucial since you’re still very squishy.

Aside from that, I think S/D isn’t bad, but I just prefer focus offhand more as it allows you not to have to be in melee range as dagger offhand forces you to to use its abilities.

To follow up: I’m going to make a standard combo video to show everyone all the S/F combos I do and how to utilize them since that was just requested today. I thought it’d be a good idea.

I really wish I’d given Fresh Air a fair shake ages ago. It’s stupidly fun. Thanks for posting!
