Fresh 80 PvE Ele, i'm lost!
Focus on what you find fun, you should unlock skills/traits that you need and then get your gear by either crafting, buying from TP, buy with karma from temple. Getting exotic gear is not hard, it would be better to first get armor that you need and then go for skins and look that you like.
Check here for builds and gear in various situation:
While you’re trying to do CoF runs for your (first?) exotic level set of armor, make sure you have level 80 rare (or even masterwork) armor and accessories! It’s generally not too expensive to get a full set of level 80 stuff at that rarity, but the difference between a fully cohesive set of level-cap armor and a ragtag mix of whatever you grabbed while levelling up can be huge.
Mixing insults with your post is like pooping in a salad.
It’s pretty obvious, and nobody’s impressed.

WELCOME to the “end game”, where you can do whatever you wish!
i suggest you first run around the world untill you unlocked all way points that are near world bosses, as well as all way points that are near dungeons.
Download a phone app that shows you when the world bosses show up,or book mark a web page that does the same.
Join a guild that likes to do dungeons, or simply join pugs.
Try to do all the world bosses and all dungeon paths (at least the ones that are easy and fast) every day.
Level up your tailoring and start working on your ascended armor set
Still got free time?
-explore the rest of the world for 100% map completion
-Finish personal story
-Finish living story
-Enjoy temporary wintersday festival, snoop around and see if you can find a way to use the event to make tons of gold
-Explore silverwastes and such for achievements and new carapace armor and titles
-work on your legendary, yes you can do this! /cheer
as for gear, im sure everyone will recommend you full zerker ,always zerker ,zerker everywhere in all PvE.
Personally i use full zerker for dungeons and for roaming around and exploring the pve for map completion.
I also made a full nomad gear for some hard large events such as tripple trouble or tequatl. it just helps me stay alive and i also find my self filling up other players hp from 30% back to 100% a lot.
As for weapons i mostly use staff, i like using fire and arcana for zerker builds, and water arcana for nomad builds.
it allows me to have lava font constantly up,and my fireballs hit like a train.
I add a few meteor showers and icebows in the mix on large groups as well.
Awesome! Thanks!
Especially at the beginning, you want to focus on how to get gold/gear within short time. Playing “efficiently” is not the way to enjoy the game in long terms, however at the beginning it helps you got get the gear/sigils/runes you want.
There are some things you can do on a regular basis to get a good amount of gold:
Dungeons you can do in pug groups, for example:
- ascalon path 1/2/3
- citadel of flame path 1/2
- twilight arbor forward/up
Of course you can do the world bosses, try to get a http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Mystic_Salvage_Kit for a higher chance of ectoplasm globs when you salvage the yellow stuff.
A very efficient way to make gold is to participate in the three big events in cursed shore: temple of melandru, temple of grenth, gates of arah (including pre-events!).
So I would suggest you do your dungeons, dailys, cursed shore events and world bosses until you have decent gear and then you can decide what to do from that on. There is a lot of things, like going for a legendary, crafting ascended armor, do the living world story, world vs. world, tequatl/jungle worm etc…
