Freezementalist Build
I am myself dedicated into a freezementalist at this moment, but I have an entirely different build. I define myself as an antispam class.

Use elemental surge.
Arcane wave = 6 chill pbaoe with 360 radius
Arcane power= five packets of 3 sec chill
On the down side though, now you’re using arcane skills and don’t have EA
Still fun for messing around though.
Tried a frost build before in spvp but I went with 30 fire for the increased condition duration. Frost builds can completely disable a enemy team but it sucks for solo fights since your damage is low. When I used a frost build we won every team fight. No much you can do when perm chilled.

Maxed out chill duration and staff in wvw is delicious.
Throw a frozen ground on em and it´s like they´ve stopped moving, well 5 of em atleast.
If they can´t dodge out of it in time they´ll have 10+ seconds of chill even if they run max -condition duration, up to 20+ if not.

Good idea ! But i would be on the side of the 30 fire for Conduration !

I tried the build with 0 10 0 30 30 taking the III skill in air and making my condition removal for survivabilty. I also went less tanky. Still had decent success. Also, I chose not to go into fire because you sacrifice too much survivabilty. If you did go 30 into fire I would recomend going staff and saving it for larger scale fights. Elemental surge works great in spvp, but not so much in wvw. I chose d/d because it was more fun and it makes better use of the sigil of hydromancy better.

This is probably better than the first build. Ive tested in wvw with pretty decent success.
