Guild Wars 2

Hey
First of all ty for the build
I still have a question, why Tempest and not Arcanes? What are the pro/cons, and also which overloads do you use and how often ?
Also for the heal I never tried glyph, I usually run Ether renewal ( since I have superspeed on air swap, I usually manage to go away far enough to heal myself without getting interrupted), what do you think of this heal ?
Anyway I’ll try the glyph to see if it feels good on use

Ty in advance for your answers

PS : oh BTW I know this is not the right topic but I’m wondering which build I should be running for T4 fractals with non meta ppl ( I feel quite useless with the DPS-only build.. Is there some more ‘’boon sharing’’ builds that are efficient enough for high lvl fractal ?
If someone has experience in this content I’ll be glad to hear it

All right ,
well I didnt know for the 30 days , good to know
And for the raids, i’ve seen the first one in the beta , of course the boss had a huge pool of HP , but still the enrage timer wasnt the main problem since everyone seems to die long before it , that’s why I was wondering about getting more “multitask” and get more survivability . Also the raid strat forced people to be in constant movement ( often far from the boss himself ) that’s why I thought gettting a bit of condi damages could be usefull .
As for fractals, i’m not pro at all in it , to be honnest I’ve done very few fractals , and was wondering , why do you say we need full zerk ? It appears to me that if the fractals are difficult , a little bit of survivability and support through better healing would help ? am I wrong ?
anyway thx for answers

Thx for answers guys
I was also wondering about the efficiency of celestial compared to zerk for instance , do you think the damages in celestial are good enough ? do you consider the loss of damage without zerk is balanced by the utility of your better heals/regen and the fact that you almost never get down (at least a lot more less than in zerk ) ?
I agree that as @shadow said , condi damages in celestial are quite good and make up for the flat dps loss , but still it’s true that you lose DPS at the end. ( but still i’m convinced that while i’ll be focusing on something else than DPS , which will happen because of the content of HOT which seems harder, condi damages will do a lot compared to direct damages and so it can be great )

I’m talking about efficiency because the most important point to me in my playstyle is to feel (and be^^) useful for my group

Hi everyone ,
First i’d like to apologize for my english mistakes , I’m french but I post here because french topics are quite desert.

So with the extension HOT and the new “hard pve content” I was wondering if celestial stats would be worth it in PVE ( magumaa , future raids …)

The question is : is the survival benefit to me and my allies granted by celestial worth compared to the DPS loss (I actually play D/F zerker ele).

Let me explain :
The idea would be to have a “swiss army knife” build with aura sharing and heal on auras (playing any other weapon set than staff that I truly dislike, with fire, water and tempest traits ). The point of celestial stats would be to be a little bit more tanky (I dont know how efficient is celestial gear on this point ? ), get better heals and regens for me and allies (though I think healing power doesnt affect our traits/skills a lot ? ) and get some condi damages to still hit enemies while i’m busy with helping allies/ placing myself right (which could happen really often if the game content gets really hard ) .

Thx for answers , have a nice day
