Im having trouble deciding on my build right now.

http://gw2skills.net/editor/?fEAQFAWhMmKbyx3gjEAEFmcyoQIiCWUeMzO2A;TMAgzCmM+A

This is my current build, its mainly for WvW, but I do use it to crossover into some spvp and I also use it for PVE.

I take AW and EA for the 6 blast finishers, allowing me to keep double digit might stacks, as well as allowing me to almost completely heal myself in about a second without by using my blast finishers in my water fields for group heals. Mist Form and AW are basically stuck on my bar but im open for change with SoE and frequently switch it out with cleansing flame and Arcane Shield.

Im having pretty good success but I want to make sure im getting the most out of it, so I have some questions;

- Would it be better to stick with Blasting Staff to give me a better area for my EA rolls, or would it be more beneficial to take final shielding there.

- Since I only have one cantrip currently (occasionally two) is it worth it going 20 in water for soothing disruption or would it be more beneficial to go 15 in water and 15 in earth? If you disagree with that completely please give me another suggestion.

- Lastly, I know my build seems to be leaning more support based, but I actually enjoy being balanced and doing damage also, (Im just more fond of actually surviving). Most of my damage comes from might stacks, but could you guys recommend any runes that would help balance my build giving me a little more fire power without sacrificing to much survivability, maybe even a little more crit chance, idk something other than full support.

Thank You

P.S. You have to copy and paste the link into your browser, im sorry I couldn’t figure out any other way to get it to work. Thank you again.

could potentially use the cleansing wave in 20 water instead. (number 5)

this will give you a heal and a condition removal whenever you attune to water, which is usually every 11 or so seconds if you’re attunement dancing.

I actually do Have Cleansing Wave, I just used it with my first 10 points in water instead. Im starting to wonder if I should put my 20 in water to Aquamancers Alacrity, so that I can get those water fields for the group heals more often, or 15 in earth might be nice for the 3 second cripple, so hard too choose lol.
