Need tips: How to kill a staff (heal) ele
Staff heal ele is basically unkillable 1v1 for most builds in the game (including all mesmer builds) unless he screws up. So don’t even bother. At the very least you’d need semi-spammable source of poison (like engineer’s Poison Dart Volley). You can try to moa him when he’s at 50%.
Get the ele to less than 3/4 or 1/2 Health. When you see him pop his boons use Arcane Thievery which will strip off 3 of them or Null Field and hope he stands in it long enough to get his books stripped. Then use your #5 Skill Pistol Offhand. If it lands he’ll get stunned then you have to MOA him. At that point you 10 seconds to get him down. Just hope he doesn’t have any dodges left to use while MOA’d.
You won’t unless they’re bad. It’s as simple as that. I played that staff bunker build even in beta, nothing short of some EXTREME unseen burst or a few people will kill it. That build is probably THE most condition resilient build in the game as well, they’re pretty much completely immune to conditions lol.
Best bet would probably be to try to do some extreme surprise burst with a glass cannon Mind Wrack build.
An alternative option MAY be to try to get him to blow his defensive cooldowns and keep boons off him with Disenchanter, but…. yeah. Doing a single clone daze shatter combine with some dmg could possibly spook him into popping something.
