Solo PvE means few buffs, so the heavily-buffed raid meta builds will fall short for you. I’d say try out your most recent build and see how things go for now. Would you post the build for review?

I think you’ll be fine. Staff is currently meta for large hitbox targets, but weak for everything else. That’s not such a big deal in open world PvE. It’s really close to current Staff meta specs.

I’d consider swapping out Air for Arcane (2-2-3) and changing up Fire (1-1-2). That will give you self-generated Might while in Fire and you’ll get a 2% damage buff for every boon on you. Maybe swap out Rebound for Conjure Fiery Greatsword for a bit more offense and mobility?
