Guild Wars 2

I don’t like to come on here looking for builds that other people like. I usually just create my own and build it to my style of play(which changes for each profession) However, when it comes to the ele, I just can’t make a build I like, so I am coming to you others ele’s who have more or less mastered the profession. Besides the thief, this is the only class left for me to become good with. Or at least make my self useful when rolling with a party. I’ll admit, I most likely just suck with this profession and that’s probably why I don’t like it… yet. Soooo, I need help.

I really don’t want to do any healer bunker type role, as my guardian is more than enough for me. Are there any Ele’s out there who can suggest some things?

I really do want to like the ele, but I need help =) I’ve been playing this game like it’s my job and have all classes lvl 80. Just can’t find a way to properly suit the ele to my liking. HELP! If possible, don’t just post builds and leave it at that. How you use your ele would be awesome. >_>

I’d recomend 30 in water and arcane for dd. That’s just the build it works best in. Build yourself to do damage. Sd you can leave water and arcane a bit. Staff I prefer dps

You can’t be poorly off by running 0/10/0/30/30. It’s a great baseline build to work off of.

0/x/x/30/30 is a very defensive play style
since you said you don’t want a bunker healer type, I’d suggest starting with 30 in air and taking fresh air for dagger or scepter, or 30 in fire and persisting flames for staff. That’s the baseline for offensive builds
