Guild Wars 2

I recently decided to start playing an ele and I was looking for some help with a build for it. I was told a celestial D/D ele was the meta and had good damage and support. This is the build I’m currently running: http://gw2skills.net/editor/?fFAQJAoYhcMKc25wyBd0AKAC5k7KGKQ5vTzC-TJxHwADOBAa2fAwDAoYZAA
If anyone could give me tips for my build or just how to play a D/D ele (aka how to pull off a good burst, combos, and how to recover quickly in a fight) that would be awesome! Thanks in advance!

A few things:
-I’d suggest Stone Splinters, Zephyr’s Boon, or Elemental Shielding in place of Spell Slinger.
-Don’t take Soothing Disruption. You already have tons of Vigor from Renewing Stamina. Take Cleansing Wave instead.
-For your first Water trait, both Cantrip Mastery and Soothing Wave are good.

The easiest combo is just timing Burning Speed with Lightning Flash. This is a pretty common burst combo for Eles.

If you can pull of a blast finisher in a fire field, more power to you.

Remove 10 from fire and get 10 on air for zephyr’s boons for more crits.

Soothing Wave works very good with cleansing water.

and get cleansing wave instead of soothing disruption.

That the build i use and i am almost unbeatable in 1vs1 situation.

Thanks for the input, I’m definately going to change soothing disruption to cleansing wave. I am either going to keep cleansing water and take soothing wave instead of cantrip master or I will keep cantrip mastery and take powerful aura for team support. I’m still undecided about whether to put 10 in air or earth. I was also thinking about swapping sigil of energy for sigil of generosity

Your build look fine. Nothing wrong with Spell Slinger as it grants you more might, which will boost all your damage sources, and has good synergy with celestial. If not using it, I’d recommend Stone Splinters.
However, you might want to swap Mist Form for Cleansing Fire, as you’ll need more condi clear. You can see how you fare against condi builds. If you’re more often than not taken down due to condis, you can swap.

A few combos for D/D include..
1: Magnetic Grasp (immobilize part only)/Updraft works too.
2: Burning Speed.
3: Fire Grab.

1: Burning Speed.
2: Lightning Flash (mid Burning Speed to make it hit).
3: Ring of Fire (if your opponent lined up for a Fire Grab, otherwise Fire Grab).

Most often you’ll have Burning Speed and Ring of Fire ready simultaneously, as they share a 15 sec CD. They’re probably the most used D/D combo because of that.

Sigil of Generosity sounds like a fine option.
