Q:
How to deal with a bunker ele
unload on them with burst and interrupts as soon as they swap out of earth.
And strip protection
Interrupts and burst. Mesmers and Warriors can lockdown a elementalist. Conditions burst(chill, poison, confusion) or normal burst assuming you have classes that can remove protection. Necros can corrupt boons which is devastating to elementalist.

Elementalists of any spec are prone to CCs, and support Ele is especially prone to them, with most running literally no stability traits or skills, except for Earth Overload. However, don’t spam your CCs all at once. The best thing you can do is pressure HARD and force CDs and them to kite. The most pressuring professions are ones with the ability to stick to them. Mesmers have superspeed shatters; Warriors have plenty of leaps and charges and whatnot, along with plenty of CC; Reapers have fears (can be cleansed though), a daze and a 2 second CC from Chilled to the Bone, but their biggest strength against Ele is high poison uptime and boon stripping. Thieves, though, are a nightmare. They have a ranged, nearly spammable daze, which makes overloading impossible. Even Earth Overload can be interrupted with Steal. Plus, they’re impossible to kite and have massive burst to force out every CD quickly.
So, stick to them, CC heals and they should be forced to use CDs, and then they’re fairly squishy if they don’t kite.
Every class besides druid/engi/ele is able to kill fast ele – pressure unitl obsidian flesh is on cooldown then cc and murder ele on water. Thief, rev and war should do this easy.

1) Always interrupt Wash the Pain away and Overload Water.
2) CC Ele.
3) Burst it. (Don’t waste your bursty combo when Obsidian Flesh is up)
4) Profit.
