Guild Wars 2

I really enjoy playing the Elementalist (love the big “booms”), and in general, I do fine in PvE areas (using D/D fire 3 then fire 4, followed up with fire 2, and then switching to earth if I need it).

I’m now level 18, but stuck on an Asuran story line for level 16. It’s the one where you’re trying to get Kudo to give up the weather machine, and he’s summoned portals that repeatedly spawn elementals that you need to take out in order to get to him. I can take out a few with the help of the NPCs, but I can’t stay alive long enough to get to Kudo.

I’m terribly frustrated at this point, as I’ve tried several variations in attacks and attunements to try pushing through. Could someone please give me some tactical advice with this?

Do it with a few people in the party and it’ll be easier. There’s a few personal storyline missions along the way that are very difficult to solo.

Not sure if you have access…but for D/D, I usually go with fire 3, fire 4, arcane wave, fire 5, fire 2, earth 4 (2sec knock back), arcane shield (invul for 3 hits), earth 5(big bleed), earth 2 (small bleed), water 4 (cripple…could be water 3), water 5 (heal), back to fire, rinse and repeat. Not sure if you have some of the utility skills listed here though. Up to date armor (vit/tough spec) and weapon (condition dmg) helps.
