Guild Wars 2

i have tried making my own build for d/d but idk what i should be looking for in my ele for spvp to make a build that is effective, what are some good builds to use to learn with?

0/10/0/30/30 PVT

0/0/10/30/30 Clerics gear. All utilities are cantrips, elemental for elite, healing signet. Delving into strong DPS builds comes later with a bit more experience. Right now you want survivability, even if its just babysitting control points. This build is very forgiving and honestly I’ve only been beaten down in 1 v 1 a few times, namely when my cantrips are already spent before they show up. Regularly switch to water attunement for the swap heal, #2,5 and dodge rolling during to activate the 30 arcane trait when you’re taking a beating. Mist form and armour of earth are good for trying to get the finisher, and cleansing fire works the best for me when stunned/immobilised/getting stacked on with conditions, instantly removing 3 conditions makes a huge difference, as well as applying regeneration and vigor. But different things work for different people, most people swear by vit, but then it’s just a DPS race before you’re all out of juice, sustaining yourself through constant healing is a LOT better IMO.
