Guild Wars 2

I’ve been using RTL-Updraft-Burning Speed+Ring of Fire+Fire Grab, but the problem is that Updraft and Fire Grab have excessive cooldowns (45s) that make killing monsters really tedious using this sequence.

So I’m hoping that you can share a better sequence to kill stuff in pve with D/D!
Also, any good sequence for S/D?

Aggro a good amount of enemies (4-6): glyph of storms in earth attunement under your feet (they’ll get perma-blinded if are not fast attackers and will almost never hit you) , churning earth, ring of fire, fire grab. Dodge back and watch them die by DoTs or do a burning speed right after dodging away if you want an instant kill. GG.

What you need is 2-3 approaches to use. I do the same as you, but if the enemy is down already by the time you’ve done Fire Grab you don’t even have to go back into Air, just stay in Fire for the next group/ enemy. To me this is what makes Ele so vital, there’s no One approach, you can engage a fight in many ways.

Its very simple really, all you have to do is read your skills, figure out how to get the most boons while dealing the most damage utilizing combo fields and finishers. After doing that you will never use the exact same rotation every fight and there is no senceble way to do so either since after every fight some ability in some element will still be on cooldown while you are ready to engage the next mob.

Being an elementalist is about being versitile and really knowing your way around your skills so that you can adapt to most if not every situation. Never even try to get a hold of some standard rotation instead figure out the combos which gives you might or other fancy things like that and use them when the time is right.

Churning Earth. Use it.

Burning Speed>Ring of Fire>Swap to Earth>Earthquake>Arcane Shield(mainly to prevent interrupts)>Churning Earth.

Good AoE sequence.
