I hit 80 some time back on my Elementalist and now seem to have quite a bit of trouble while out exploring the world. I have tried many different builds but have very little luck. What I am really after is a comfortable build to deal damage and survive while out in the world. The problem I am running into is that if I do not have all of my abilities off cool down I have trouble finishing a fight without going into a downed state.
So here is the heart of my question. What do you use to do things like farm matts and explore the world for completion without constantly having to re spawn if you make a single mistake?
