Hey!

I’d like to share a build I’m workin’ on for PvE content. This is just an alternative to what is my main “aim” with this char (S/D – Valkyrie Ai/Fi/Ea), but I tried a bit and seems to deliver a nice gaming experience.

I’ve almost nothing in the equip to boost it, but I’m planning to get some of the loot stuff I gathered from PvPing.

Here are the core concepts:
- fun to play;
- full support with the ability to deliver some CC;
- Staff.

I’m still experimenting with the skills, they’re not the ultimate choice, but I’ll give a brief explenation:
- Heal Skill: Signet of Restoration. With the Earth Perk to keep passives rolling is a nice catch.
- Arcane Shield: by now is mandatory. You’re squishy and that saves life.
- Arcane Power: this is catchy, kinda hidden rotation perk. This is there for damage spike needed when the party is in full “control” or there’s no actual need for overhealing. jump into air or fire, deal some damage, reverse back to water to get boons and repeat.
- Glyph of Elemental Power: CC.
- Glyph of Elementals: 1 more guy is good.

Here’s the link: http://gw2skills.net/editor/?vFAQFAWhcMonhNOwoB0RMsBYVPYDWDmGQAYCQfgLwZE

Thanks for watching. Advices are welcome, but avoid “go berserk” xD

Well my advice would be scrap this build unless you’re just going for open world content. In any group instanced content it is not good. You say support but you have no armor with stats to offer much support. Valkyrie armor is not a good choice to do damage and that’s what people want a staff ele for. You build has a lot of choices that are not needed in PvE. I’d suggest taking a peek at metabattle and getting a base build and tweak it to your liking. But if you enjoy it and you’re having fun that’s all that matters. I wouldn’t expect a lot of people here telling you anything good about your build though.

Edit: If this is just a leveling build it doesn’t matter anyway. Enjoy getting to 80!
