Yea, I know is funny to ask but after playing a thief and mesmer for so long I want to try an ele.

I’ve been watching a lot of eles using double dagger or staff but no scepter or focus.

Also in pvp, playing as thief I’ve seen very good eles doing a lot of damage using just 2 Attunements. But for me I want to ask to the community which build is the best dps and support for you (it can be interesting to play as support).

Any help is welcome

A good Solo Roam build for WvW is the Diamond skin build. Its pretty amazing vs most classes and completely shuts down full condi specs. Enjoy!

This is my take on the Fresh Air Ele Burst that S/D is known for. Insane burst damage, lots of fun to play. Viable? Depends on the player

Extremely squishy, but if you play it like a thief where you go in burst someone down and then back out you should do fine.
Combo is :
Rock Barrier>Hurl> Earthquake> Lightning Flash mid Earthquake >Arcane Wave>Arcane Blast>Air Attunement>Lightning Strike> Ride the Lightning> Updraft.

If done right should take you 1-2 seconds to complete combo tops.
I found a good youtube vid of someone doing it , seeing it should help http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EdBJw9cBuEo
