Trying to make a pvp burn burst build. If this works, I will be on the fence as to who my second main is (I am looking but its Necro so far).

So far.

I am set on everything but the heal and the 9 skill. I am debating Arcane Wave heal (Balthazaar+GM in arcane) for the double burn. Also, Firestorm applies burn in a circle, Signet applies burning directly, Fire Axe just duplicates my 3 and 4. Help QQ

Edit: I am also debating sigil of rage for the quickness burst. Just depends- but right now these are best without it.

Edit2: I am basically trying to make a secondary main that does what my Thief does- gets in a fight and maximizes pressure within 3 seconds. If target survives pressure, withdraw and find a new one or continue and reapply pressure in a different way to ensure the kill. And that’s what this kind of does, just need help. The burst burn is at 17 stacks for 8.6k.

Worst Thief in the world, yes I am.

Any chance of help? I’m trying to pick my main alt, and this would mean I could use all my ascended gear in my bank (its all condi main stat repeats from pvp spamming).

So far, I am doing this. http://gw2skills.net/editor/?vFAQJAoYnMIC1MgNOAGNA8RgBBALCAhyHwED2B3waT2GODA-TJxCABA8AAOZ/hjPBAbVGAA

Anyone able to reach higher burn stacks (that is my number one goal over everything, not looking for defense just burns) than 17 on a burst with 9-12 sustained? I’d really like some help.

I’ll save you the trouble and tell you that Condi Ele just doesn’t work right now. Play another class if you want Condi.

Why do you need to make a condi build when you’re already to deal the same damage as a condi build when using the D/D cele build?

Elementalist is currently the best burn stackers in the game and can sustain it well. The only issues surface when using a condition build in a pvp setting where people will easily remove the stacks. I can only see a hard condition build work in a PvE/open world setting.

“Cele” ele is not condi.

It has not enough survivability. I would go for focus not offhand dagger.

You basically go Earth/Water/Arcane staff and pew/pew your enemies to death.

Or they get so bored they just run away.

It’s more of a “psychological warfare” build
