I’m thinking Saffron-Scented Poultry Soup for more condition control … but, also thinking Loaf of Omnomberry Bread or Mango Pie to help the low Toughness/Vitality.
Please help, any and all advice is welcome.
Thank you.

1) You could realize that some fights will make you wish for more survivability. You could assume that you will be punished to your last hit point repeatedly, but you are confident that your skills will pull you through if you just added 8% more survivability.
2) You could realize some fights will make you wish you had the damage to finish them off earlier. You could assume that quicker wins will come with more damage (any damage that bolsters your build).
Do you play for come-backs, or do you play for risk&reward?
tswm (too short write more, a.k.a ey (explain yourself)) –
Think about a hard time in WvW. You are outmanned or outplayed in multiplayer combat. Each time you faceplant you get two casts. You wonder while eating dirt whether it would have been better to trade that 1k extra health for 100 more ae damage. I will say it straight, and you either understand it or you don’t. There is a range of optimum survival. On one side of that optimum range you get a tad more dps. On the other side of that optimum range you get a tad more up time. Adding more survivability will result negligible win, so it is wasted stat. Trading more survivability for dps will result in exponential increase in loss rate. That range covers roughly the same number of wins. One gives slightly faster wins, while the other is slightly more reliable. The problem is finding that range. The current state of the Ele makes puts that range in a dangerous zone regardless. With that in mind you need to either fight the risk by rebelliously going survival, or embrace the risk with a berserker frenzy.

You need 30 points in arcana for the heal and blast finisher on dodge. You definitely don’t need the trait for glyph cooldown reduction.
You’re stacking a loooot of precision but your critical damage is quite low, along with toughness and vitality. It’s far more economical to spec zephyr’s boon and use that for perma fury.
You also have low heal power which is, in my opinion, far more important than vitality and toughness. Ele’s have the lowest health and armor, but we do make up for it with healing.
Signet of air is worthless, drop it for something else like lightning flash.
