This is what i’m planning on trying out after 4/15:

the gear is just what i currently have…open to suggestions for updating it to work better with this build.

This is for WvW in T1 (zergy!) so the playstyle is generally supporting the commander pushes with fields and aoe dps.

A typical rotation on push would be static field on the enemy tank ball -> earth 2 -> water 4 -> arcane wave, giving our tanks frost aura and chilling the enemy. Post patch i would switch to fire before dropping arcane wave to apply aoe burning, blind, and vulnerability.

if i’m under pressure, arcane brilliance (in my own water field of course) and arcane shield in fire attunement cause aoe burning, blind, and vulnerability as well.

Any thoughts/suggestions/analysis appreciated!
