Interpretor's spvp build. S, Sh/LB
Fire Runes can be swapped in, and if you do that, run heal signet instead. All depends on your role. If you’re gonna be holding home and 1v1ing (which is dumb because ele’s will always outplay you in that role and this build isn’t made for that), then play cele/heal signet.
This spec is best used for team fights or quick rotates back to home to assist your DD ele holding home.
How to play: Engage the targeted enemy from a distance with your longbow. Use your signet to get full adren and set down a fire field right away, arcing shot and fan of fire to lay down initial damage. Then leap in for the killing blow with savage leap, your leap finisher will activate giving your might everytime you are struck. Continue to sword 1 your target for the crits and furious stacks for more condi damage and try to set up good flurry or shield/final thrust combos on your teams target. Don’t force kills, if it’s getting too hot back out and reset your combo again. Remember to stack on them when your switch back to longbow for the 6 stacks of bleed from your geo sigil.
For team fights: If you find you’re dying in team fights, you’re going too deep. If the enemy team is focusing you, get a team to peel for you because you are probably soloqueueing and no one peels for players in soloqueue. You have plenty of utilities to get out of a bind if you have your team peeling for you. It can actually be considered beneficial for your team, if the enemy team to focus you. While they are busy trying to kill you, your team can counter them hard and turn around the team fight entirely. With your 2 endure pains, a shield block, defiant stance and 24k hp you just don’t die and the burst from mesmers and thieves are entirely mitigated for that duration. While you are being focused, your cleansing ire produces more adreneline which will allow you to use your bow elite skill more and cleanse conditions.
