Hey, I’m testing a build for pvp ele, but I’m finding that the class is very squashy to condi damage. Is there any way that I could fix this?

traiting water cleanse on regeneration and use soldier rune with a shout tempest? Cleanse potential is very high …. And you do most of it also to teammates … ele is top support.

I forgot entirely about runes, I was running boon duration until now, soldier works great, thanks!

Try clensing flames trait too… honestly ele has possibly the most options for condi clearing out of everyone.

Please stop assuming I’m a guy… I am female.

Yeah, try the Auramencer. Top dog support and cleansing abilities in PvP ATM, which really reminds me of the D/D Cele triple cantrip, with amazing support, decent damage and incredible cleansing. The might stack is weak, but it may just be my rotation which is terrible…

retro d/d ele was not weak with sigil of battle yielding 3 stacks of might for 20 seconds instead of the nerf 2 years ago for 2 stacks only. Arcane trait line Renewing Stamina had a 5 second cool down and we had linger enchantments that allowed trait mechanics to to last 5 seconds longer after swaps. Arcane trait line granted 30% boons duration not the present 10%. With arcane trait attunement swap was 25% reduction and not currently 15%. Power nerfs weren’t present or HOT bunkers let alone I massive condi power creep)

No being d/d ele means you have light team support and you can burst down 2-3 people with rapid succession if you chain well. D/F is more team support and point guard. DF was very important is unrank zerg fight in grave yard haha. Good times roasting cele rifle.

Cele was big with d/d eles, rifle engineers, shotbow wars, condi clone bomb mesmer, necro hybrid point, thief sword skirmish and condi skirmish rangers. Very popular from 2014-2015 even with HOT cele was used way more. Anet found fights long winded or one sided so they nerfed it.

They like the fast death condi unloads or insta gib power spikes to sell ESL.

Hey we used to play ESL, used to be top 75 in NA in solo and random join. Spvp had way more builds and team play than now When metabattle wiki start that page had like 3-4 time the builds on their lol.

Cele ele was not weak with the fire traitline or air it can over time out damage zerker ele scepter or glass d/d ele which relied on 4-5 control burst that if dodge or evade, pretty useless and one trick poney to tease in hot joins or 3v1 some in wvw back in 2013-2014. You can still find them on youtube like the 18j backstab that really is 2-3 hits on glass pve players.

Old power build were way more powerful or way more tanky. There were more variation and play styles for gamers to choose from.

Also anyone can play d.d ele in wvw but it take guts to repel numbers turn tides in outnumber fights or stall an entire zerg of 20-30 for 30-40 sec so your team can run away. And than you die in a corner knowing that everyone safe back in the keep.

That was ele ….not a heal bot or a 1v1 soft touching power or condi spammer.

You have to build for clears on ele giving up traits. Ele the one class who dose not have a good utility for clears alone. You run water (selfish set up) or you run earth, arcain can kind of clear but not that well as well as fire but i think fire alone is the worst, air has nothing nor dose tempest.

Ele is just hard counter by condis and any type of boon control that why ele is super weak in this meta for pvp.

Well, I wouldn’t say super weak but indeed not that great. Gotta remember that almost every team in the Unity tournament was using ele in their team. A different story for soloQ obviously.

Compared to other classes ele maybe the weakest. Unless they build all in to counter them meaning 2 lines at least dedicated to cleaning condis. The big thing is ele lacks both resistances and a blunt dmg -% take from condi dmg.

I had a thought about condi clear for ele by having a revise boon corruption effect. So if ele gives out reg they clear condis that do dmg if the ele gives out swiftness it clears chill and crippler.

Giving ele a means of clearing the condis that need to be in the moment and not just hopping you hit the right condis at last one system. I think this would be the answer to a ele only effect that makes the class have a pt use and a effect like resistance with out needing to get resistance too.

Maybe this ideal should be its own threat but it kind of fits here for now.
