Guild Wars 2

What mainly screws you up is their signets. Activation time is about 1/2s so you wont be able to blind them upon cast, but you need to dodge burning and immob ones. Other than that you want to keep pressure and maybe pop up zerk stance when you dont have adrenaline, ele is on fire attunement and you want to finish him. ? didnt play condi ele but I know they are somewhat squishy unless full dire I suppose.

One thing about zerk builds is that if you’re absolutely bad at the game, don’t even use it

Can’t be done. If both players are equally skilled a hybrid/condi dagger/focus (or any ele actually) will always beat the warrior.

You did not mention food. There’s ine that reduces condition duration. May help.

I’m not really sure what a pure condition build on an elem would be. I have two builds in mind, though:

• The S/F Earth-only build with Stone Heart, when the player never changes elements and keep spamming the auto-attack.
• Some signet/aura build, e.g. 6/2/6/0/0, with Blinding Ashes and Written in Stone. Quite a difficult child, that one.

In both cases, the builds are less resilient than the standard 0/0/2/6/6 builds, and vulnerable to conditions (the first one never switches to Water, and the second one has no investment in Water).
