Guild Wars 2

I am working on my might stacking. Right now practicing with D/D. However when I lay down a burning speed and a ring of fire (for the ease) even when standing on the burning speed line I almost never get dual might stacks. Just the one stack of 3 per skill. I occasionally do get the single 6 stack add, but its so rare and random. What am I doing wrong? If I can’t do this with ring of fire, I will never be able to do it with flame wall.

In my experience, ring of fire is good to stack might with i usually use the frozen burst/earthquake soon after and then dodge in earth. However with burning speed if you frozen burst right after it, i never get the might stack which is quite annoying that i have to move back. And i never liked flamewall since i have to be standing right on it for the frozen burst/earthquake to give me might or dodge right into it (in earth).

You will never get double might stacks for a single blast. When blasting multiple fields only the oldest one, that was laid first, will be taken into account.

I could have sworn I have gotten both, however I am more than willing to accept I screwed up. However if you can’t blast two fields at once, how do elementalists build 18+ stacks of might?

Do you have to go S/F plus ArBr and ArW? Get all 6 blasts to go off perfect w/out any interruptions or issues to hit 18?

Maybe you are using a sigil of battle?

So there’s that and also depending on rotations LH will be doing one more hit in the Flamewall. In a proper group you will generally not have to generate that much might all by yourself anyway.

Strength runes give +45% might duration, and 30 points in Arcana gives +30% to all boon durations, meaning +75% might duration.

With this, a Sigil of Battle can easily keep up nine stacks alone, field blasting gives much longer-lasting might (AoE), and adding a Sigil of Strength will make it easy to maintain 20-22 and regularly hit 25 - though most people run Air (or maybe Fire) sigil alongside Battle to boost dps instead, or Doom to apply some extra anti-healing pressure.
