Guild Wars 2

Hey guys,

I just got a 80 ele, thanks to Golem week and I am now struggling with builds. I could get Zerker gear and just make a back-line staff ele, but I’ve always wanted a D/D Ele. Problem is that I’m currently building Cele gear for my Necro, so my ele won’t have a set for at least another month or so.

Is there an alternative gear set up I can get to be semi-efficient as a D/D Ele? Or does that build really need all the Hybrid stats?

Soldier/knights/cav/zerk

You can mix stats you just need a baseline of totals you want.

16-18k hp Glassy-Tank
2000+power
300-400 healing (debatable IMO)
30% critical chance pre-fury
Critical damage 180+

You can get these numbers give or take in certain areas with a mixed gear set that doesn’t include celestial.

This is a decent set of stats with 0 healing power. Just don’t make the fights drag out and it should be fine.

How about this setup, i haven’t used it yet but im going to buy this gear mostly for normal pve and wvw

2050 power
3200 armor
190% crit dmg
20% cirt chance
and with the food 100% reduced cripple chill and immobilize and

Thank you to all who posted here. I found out that 3 pieces of Celestial (non armor) are actually account bound, so I was able to share them between my Necro and Ele ( although this is a bit inconvenient ).
