How to creat THE ELEMENTALIST
Roll a revenant.
Unless you are masochist and like the huge amount of pain that awaits you in PvP from running a glass cannon burst build.
Or if this is for PvE? You can roll whatever you like short of raids. It just doesn’t matter.

Did you really have to necro the 3 year old thread AND make a new one?
If you want to do as much damage as possible in as little time as possible, you should stack offensive attributes (who would have thought), that being Power, Precision and Ferocity.
Funnily enough there is a stat combo in the game called Assassin’s, that does just that and is useful on an Elementalist if you mix it with Berserker’s.
Sourde thanks for the advice and Mad Rabbit so what atributes do you think i should use

For melee rev not that good d/d ele is ok for the full glass build even the old chrun bomb all in could work to a point but for a truly “Assassin” you need stealth. Stealth in GW2 makes the other person nearly unable to hit you until your right on them. It lets you go all in glass. So your better off playing ranger scraper thf mez or may be DH (all though dh stealth is very limeted to traps stealth.)
If you want to play d/d ele you need to be able to take a lot of hits before you can land any thing. This is why you see most d/d ele builds run some level of healing power and many def effects. If ele has more say super speed and anty movement condtion effects or more blinks then i could see the build working but sadly they gave that to every other class in the game lol.

It’s not a question of attributes. We don’t have any class mechanic that we can use tactically to reliably and consistently avoid or prevent damage, allowing us to cycle cooldowns to set up burst combos. You are very vulnerable and weak as an elementalist, so you if you build a glass cannon assassin, you are going to be in for a lot of pain.
If you really want to try and make this work, you’ll need to do some research on S/F Fresh Air builds. Metabattle has one variation of it.

There is some threads here from the last few months that list other variations and are still relevant.
