I have to test that but i think the animation of the skill cuts it to close to gain perma regen. Have u tried this ? If it works it would be cool to have the protection
Sweet I have been doing a version of this in spvp with decent success. I figured i could get better stats in wvw since you can mix and match armor and food buffs. My ranger is only level 44 so i wanted a goal build to work towards for when Im 80 since wvw is my main objective. Thanks a lot guys for your help
The whole idea behind my theory crafting was to get perma regen and swiftness from guard. I have reworked it to include empathic bond and the signet that cures a condition every ten seconds. To me it looks solid on paper. Has high power
40% crit chance, over 500 healing and high toughness. I went with ranger runes for the extra percesion. What do you guys think? http://gw2skills.net/editor/?fNAQNAsXRnEqQvg2wC+rARLGwSoafABQB8aHcvBRwFXwqG-TFDBABmqyAU7PYkSOMOCAScIACSdGAeAAOY+LF9BUoEcVlDZcCAIFgeKjA-w
ok ill change some gear around and move those points around for empathatic bond. I like axe 5 not crazy about 4 but ill give axe a go instead of torch. i like jumping thru the fire field is all lol. Thanks a lot. Will be solo a lot roaming and sometimes with an ele.
what if i use two sigils of gromancy on crit transfer conditions ?

Edit shoot the link is blank im on mu cell it didnt save
ill repost the build when i get home. sorry guys
stats seem good to me
what u guys think. with guard and sic em i csn maintain perma regen and it had a good crit chance and power. Im tired of condition builds so was thinking of trying this. tear it apart

Elementalists fail at conditions.
Use Zelyhn’s guide that he directed you to if you want do do well.
This is wrong on so many ways. I run a staff ele with 3 signets and dire gear. 2200 toughness 2100 condition damage, crazy control, and I destroy roaming. 1vs1 I win 99% time and almost win more than 80% 1vs 2. There are other builds in the game that are very effective if you learn how to use them. A good condition staff ele can perma lock down a target and aplly conditions faster than a necro.
Here is the build i use http://gw2skills.net/editor/?fFAQFAWnMISfDW2A2NAfEG4DIIO+MeIYpYZKA-TFSHAB1+AAcTHQdKBNSpBM7P0kyMGV/BgLAQAAEgZOzAwP/54954VOzcmzcmzcmlCAmpRA-w

I have been playing a version based off diva’s signet build. Although I use staff. I can lock someone down and kill them before they move most fights. My brother plays a necro and I was wondering if it would be possible for me to load up the main target in a small 2 vs 4 fight or so and he spread all my conditions with epidimic? If so, is the condition dps based off my damage or his? My idea was for me to lock one guy down load all my conditions really fast and him spread it. Could be a great was to get the edge in outnumbered fights if the way i’m thinking about this is right. Can anyone confirm or has anyone tried this? Thanks. I’m sorry I kniow nothing of how necros work
I wouldn’t say overpowered I mean in a dueling since it works great but I mean how often do you fight one versus one out there in open world before u gets adds of 3and4 people. Builds like this are meant for duels and roaming 1vs2 and such. OP to me is game breaking. I dont see this build breaking anything, it may make people cry or rage quit simetimes but it doesnt break the game. My advice to u is find a few friends and quit crying about clever builds that make u claim OP!
Sad to say that was my engi toward the end. Was very sad when i saw i got beat by a guy with no weapons. Op or not what was your build or trait spread. Id like to troll a bit with my thief
Also you don’t hold shield 4 then release to make it work, you double tap it fast for the blast finisher. Often I will place healing turret, overcharge it, tap f1 for first blast then double tap shield 4 and get even more healing before the field is gone.
What level for interest sake, because the upscaling starts to drop off quite drastically.
An Ele friend of mine took his uplevelled from lv2 ranger into WvW and was sitting at ludicrous stats, beating fully geared lv80 Warriors without having unlocked all his weaponskills yet.
I just hit 40. I’m going to stick with him, its a fun class. Thanks for the replies and I’m glad that most the issues are in Spvp, I don’t do it so np there.
Good to hear cause I really like the class but reading the forums gets me to wonder if I should finish the grind to 80.
I have been lvling an ele and I love it. I do all my lvling in wvwvw, always have. I have 4 80’s, War, thief, guardian, and engi and I just don’t see what all the crying is about. Unless uplvls get a major boost I can only see it getting better when im lvl 80. I’m running D/D and perhaps I am just a good player but I am already kicking kitten . Sure I am squishy but I stay up more than down. I am so used to button mashing from playing an Engi that perhaps a lot of people on here just don’t have the skill it takes to make an Ele shine. Keep in mind that I’m not just running with the zerg and even when I’m running duo roaming with my Warrior brother I really help out and do good dps to help him down people.
All that being said, why are there just so many negative post about a class that to me seems to be very diverse and survivable with good dps and group utility. Are there any people out there who feel like this class rocks like me. Or does this class suddenly suck kitten when you hit 80? I can’t imagine that it does.
My brother has a Zerker war and we like to roam just the 2 of us. I have a Guardian, engi, and thief I could play with him. Recently I have been lvling an Ele and I dig it so far. I love D/D but hear that for support you should go staff?
My question, is there a build I could run d/d and still support him since he will do most the damage. I would like to use water and passive regens to add to his healing and I want to provide steady dps and cc. This is for 2v2 and more type fights. Im new to ele but before I get to deep into it I was wondering if what I want is capable of the class with this setup. Thanks
I am having trouble finding a build that is good against more than 1 person in wvw. I have tried everything. I have several full sets of gear. Apothecary, zerkers, knights, and rabid. I have tried so many different combinations and still I always feel squishy and just cant outlast more than one person.
Anyone out there got a good build I could try for solo roaming that is good against several people? I dont care if it’s p/p or rifle. I have tried hgh, static discharge builds and they all work ok but I’m wondering if anyone has a hybrid build. Something others might think is crazy that works well for what i’m trying to do.
Before I get the “sounds like a learn to play issue”, I’m certain that it’s not. I am very good on the buttons and swapping kits. I know how to do blast finishers and all the little tricks. Anyway if there is some cool builds you guys are having success with I’d like to try some out. Please keep in mind my gear sets for I am broke and doubt I will be getting another one anytime soon. The only thing I have not tried is getting and invaders set. I was wondering if the added toughness and hp’s on it is what im looking for? Thanks
