Lol. Man, this is so old. The sad part is it might as well be true.

Run earth, water and arcane and enjoy being able to reduce any zerker’s dps down to zero!!! every time you pop earth attune.

And also do no dps your self as almost all earth skills are low dps.

It could still be a great bunker build for PvP together with Ether Renewal and Melandru runes (if they exist in PvP) to deal with condis.

It’s pretty hard to pull ER off in pvp, everyone decent will interrupt it and ele has too high cooldown stability skills to cover it.

Melandru runes exist in pvp, yeah. But then again, it’s not like ele needed another variation of a dd ele build.

Ether renewal is buffed by the fact that you can now run rock solid without mucking anything else up. It’s also gaining a skill category so you can potentially trait it as well.

2 sec stab vs 3 1/2 cast time.

Meaning you’ll have gotten at least 4 ticks before anyone interrupts it instead of 0.

I always lose it at bind #1 to Toaster.

Its a much bigger object to press in the heat of combat!

A classic. I am sure we will see this often over the next year (after changes) until ANet buffs up back up and everyone starts QQing again b/c its not a free-kill (like during the times when its trash-tier).

Seriously though, d/x tank builds will at least be viable. Staff is unusable trash due to replacement by engies and scepter is trash due to damage being nerfed while other burst specs are getting MORE damage. It really is quite sad the the class with “high damage” can only play when it tanks up rather than embrace the “highest damage.”

Cry until Karl comes to his senses? Or go play guardian.

Staff sucks with dagger and scepter, everything except cantrip.
