For the Toast!
Hello fellow Elementalists, I need some help right now. I just got my Ele to 80, and have been getting a really nice feel with the D/D set, and it feels really active and very rewarding to play, whether in a ZvZ or 1vX scenario. But, I’m torn on a lot of parts of my build.
I’ve been following Intigo’s videos and advice a lot recently, and his videos seem to have the exact, perfect balance of tankiness and damage that I’m looking for in WvW roaming/zergs. He hasn’t posted his exact recent build (I don’t think), but from what I can gather from posts and advice, is that he uses Zerker weapons, PVT armor, 0/15/0/25/30, and PVT trinkets with Zerker upgrades.
Now, I’m not exactly sure what trinkets to use: I’m currently running an ascended Celestial amulet, with a PVT back item, one PVT ring with and accessory, and one Cleric ring and accessory. Some people recommend full Cleric’s, equally as many advise against it. I’m considering what Intigo used; full PVT trinkets with Zerker upgrades, but I’m not sure if it will give me enough tankiness.
As for runes, I’m currently using 2x Superior Water, 2x Superior Monk, and 2x Major Water – I’m not sure what to use in place of the 2x Major Water, or if I should use a new runeset entirely. I’m tight on gold right now from buying a bunch of siege, so full Traveler and Divinity aren’t options right now.
Thanks to all in advance.
If you PvP a lot, you could try combining Geomancer’s Freedom with Rune of Melandru. It’ll give you a lot of defense agains conditions and stuns.
2 superior rune of traveler. If you are running 30 in water you would have 350 healing power. I’d try for closer to 450-500 range. You could also utilize cavelier trinkets for a bit more damage at the sacrafice of vitality. Personally, I feel safe at 15k vitality.
I picked up 2 Traveler runes, so I’m at 2 Sup Water / 2 Sup Monk / 2 Sup Traveler now, I’ll see how it goes. Thanks.
