famous d/d fire ele build i keep hearing?
Celestial set, hoelbrak or strength runes usually. Fire water arcane traits. Blinding ashes, cantrip, evasive arcana combo. Use your fields, stack might and deal dmg at the ssame time, survive a nuclear blast, spam cantrips (especially cleansing fire for burm stacks) claim that it requires top talent in the game. Easy.
Just joking. You wouldnt survive a nuke. No offense guys. But it is nuke.
ic, so the build is mostly about combining d/d allready high survability with a spaming of blind via burning?
Sadly, yes. Just memorize the combos and you are ok.

Ok until a mesmer comes around and 1-shot you from stealth… or a warrior rampage and beat you to a pulp, or a lich auto attack you 3 times, or a guardian burst you with quickness, or … List goes on and on of overpowered builds from other class, yet everyone complains about the only viable build for ele because they don’t know how to counter it.
Every build can be killed easily by a good player, or an anti-build. If you die, you either screwed something or your opponent’s skills are better than yours. There are few exceptions that can counter dd cele easily. Rest is about skill levels and game experience I guess. ( I die to mesmers too by the way. I am not perfectly skilled.)

Would you please stop whining? There are plenty other viable elementalist builds.

I was answering to people whining about the ele, and now I’m the one whining. Truth is in most scenarios we have more reasons to complain.

If you died to stealth gank/rampage/lich, that only means you are a bad player. Nothing more.

Yeah, because I’m the first ele to die from Rampage…
I main ele for 5k hours and won a 1v2 on a warrior after 30 minutes of play time… I must be such a bad ele… or an amazing warrior! right?
