Guild Wars 2

I have been experimenting with switching between earth and fire. I use shockwave for immobilize then hit unstable ground and then hit 2 and then switch to fire to finish off. All staff btw Currently i have a Fire air build with ten points into arcane. But since i like using the imbolize cripplles and bleeds of earth, am beginning to wonder if it would be more advantageous to go earth fire build. Any advice is appreciated this is strickly PVE. PVP will come later.

I use Fire/Earth/Water going for 30/30/10. I am a fire user and switch to Earth to do bleed and crippling damage. Fire is great, in my game play experience, and I do medium to high DPS. I may not keep water, I may switch those 10 points to arcane, but right now the water gives me a little more health. Earth is also great for those pesky mobs that are immune to burn/fire damage.

There are times when I run in circles around a mob, even Champions, and use fire spells (including storm) to take their health down, then I can roll and give myself space to do meteor storm or switch to Earth. I find the Fire/Earth mix great for me so far! I also use Staff. Even under the water, fire/earth/water spells work best for me.
