Your videos are a bit out dated have you tried after the update.

There will be some more current stuff on the way pretty soon! Unfortunately my YouTube account got hacked and they deleted my videos, I’m just in the process of upload most of the lost clips and unused clips before I get to uploading newer stuff!

What do you change about your build to fit Tempest, and when do you do so?

i swap fire line for tempest.

i run tempest when im running into larger groups with my buddies, it performs alot better in larger fights thanks to the aoe pressure and cleave, and thanks to harmonious conduit and earth overload i have a lot more stability to counter the inevitable cc spam you find in those larger fights, not to mention the extra heals/cleanse for my group from water overload tempest in general just performs a lot better in those situations. also sometimes i get bored of core and need a change

D/D Elementalist Roaming #1

Posted by: Noble.2670

Noble.2670

I played a D/D ele back after beta and it made me fall in love with the game. After all the changes, I gave up and quit. Are they a legit class/build again?

Oh, and if I wanted to roll one, what armour would you suggest until I can afford the celestial ascended or just celestial in general?

d/d is a legitimate build again, for me it always was, it just required some gear changing, when hot rolled around i dropped all healing power completely and stacked armour and vitality for awhile because recovering from the insane ranged damage that was around was nigh impossible, so weakening the hit all together was more beneficial to survival, as other classes have gotten nerfed over time we have slowly been able to fade back into our old multi stat spreads, and currently the build i posted (which I see you have looked at) is the absolute best setup i could find after countless hours trying different setups, the gnashblade food and durability runes allow us to stack -43% damage nearly permanently and -53% with frost aura, if you run it with tempest which is also an option you can stack -50% damage pernermantly, ontop of the 2.6k armour we have this gives us the tankiness we need to survive the current meta, and free’s up
Some stats to be able to take more a more offensive gear setup to be able to down the tankier opponents.

if you absolutely can not get any ascended at all, and want to hop right in, this is a decent cheap alternative you would be able to get straight off the trading post, don’t expect to be able to pull off anything amazing, and your be missing a lot of survival compared to the other build, but it is passable, and it will help you get a feel for d/d again and how its play-style fits into the current state of the game.

http://gw2skills.net/editor/?vFAQJAoIGIAsaNkELDRBIAEEpswRIKA-TlSDQBD4BAkO9ApSJIAM/ND1fkwJAIhKDOiSMko0wf7PQKAZFaB-

note this is just an alternative for the time being, and i wouldn’t recommend it as a main build, as the other one is leaps and bounds ahead of it, sadly the best of the best gear is what d/d ele needs to fully compete now days.

A lot of these people aren’t poorly geared players tho, i don’t know if the meta is different in NA now, but last time I played on NA it was no different to how it is here. your making it sound like people Build a lot tankier over there nowadays tho. I doubt that’s the case, but Most people run Maurder/zerker mix setups here, also yes if two ele’s with this build did cross each other, the fight would not end, that does not mean is unviable, I feel like it has a rather comfortable spot in this current meta between the decent sustain and damage, although the cds one some skills really could do with a change..This build is still more viable then people seem to believe despite that tho. It’s by no means meta, but it is viable.

D/D elementalist roaming build+video

in Elementalist

Posted by: Noble.2670

Noble.2670

Hello fellow elememtalists! seven here. With all the interest in D/D elementalist lately thanks to the recent videos by conleav and elem, I figured I would once again try sharing my setup, I tried a few months ago and was met with responses like “d/d is dead” and “you need to post a video” among other various things. I actually updated my GPU a couple of days ago and can finally record, so this time a video will be included.

I’ve run D/D ele and D/D ele only for the past 3years now, I absolutely love the play style and simply can’t give it up. no matter how the meta has shifted I’ve always managed to find a way to make it work for me. When hot come around I spent over 4K gold trying different gear setups, it all felt pretty hopeless for a long while, but we eventually got there in the end! So, to the build!

http://tinyurl.com/7ddelebuild

There’s really not that much to say about the builds traits, it’s just the usual 2015 d/d elementalist setup that were all to familiar with, you can swap burning precision for burning fire if you find your running into a lot of condition builds but other then that it’s all gravy.

Another Option is to swap fire line for tempest, its a lot stronger in outnumbered fights thanks to the extra heals, cleanse and aoe damage you have access to. I personally prefer core ele’s playstyle and I find overall fire line still takes the edge in 1v1’s simply due to the unpredictable nature and higher burst+burn damage. It all comes down to personal preference at the end of the day tho.

Now to the gear, again there isn’t much to say about this, this is the absolute best balance between damage and survival that I have found. The tankiness comes from the abuse of broken items such as durability runes and gnashblade food, which in turn allows us to build for a more offensive stat spread so we can dish out some very reasonable damage, unfortunately until Dagger offhand gets some much needed quality of life updates we have to abuse such things for us to remain competitive.

The proofs in the pudding right? So here’s a video of the build in action.

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=kuWbEfnY_1E

I actually posted this video yesterday in its own thread, so I apologise for the double posting.

Thanks for reading and keep on rocking! d/d ele will never truly die, not while there’s players around willing to invest there time and crazy amounts of gold into finding a way to make it work!

The best we can do is just waiting for the new linking’s

I do find it kind of laughable that AG, a server that already had a larger population then us was linked with ROF, a server that had at least 60% of the population we had, then to top it off they put us against them, I don’t understand the logic.

However, at least being at the bottom isn’t how it used to be, there’s still fights to be found and the matchup is very active overall, you know most of the hardcore GH players don’t give a kitten about ppt, so I don’t think I just speak for myself when I say I’m not actually all that bothered

Looming Necro... Issues?

Posted by: Noble.2670

i defiantly agree that we should be able to see our skills while in Shroud, and it defiantly sounds like a coding issue, however anet has proved quite a few times they like to take the easy route with a lot of things they do, you’ve only got to look at balance as an example, they would rather remove amulets then address fundememtal issue’s with certain profession skills, leaving the rest of the game (looking at you wvw) broken and unbalanced.

I have to disagree with the healing point tho, I feel like being able to heal in shroud would be a little to strong, you said it yourself, we are in shroud 30-40% of the time, being able to heal our HP while tanking in shroud 40% of the time would be incredibly strong and require some massive fine tuning. I’d still welcome the change tho

just had 2 games in a row with 2 thieves, in each game , 500-50 500-90
they spent whole game insta dying im serious, they died every 30 seconds more or less, the two of them.
its just impossible to play like this.
then ofc they come to the forum and ask for buffs , when in reality they just bad , was so upset i stoped playing .

let me just clear this up, first off, i was one of them thiefs, i dont play thief, that was my second game on thief, i was just kitten ing about in unranked, go to ranked if you want to be try hard, also, as i said, i dont main thief therefore i do not come to the forums to ask for buffs..i know im a bad thief, obviously! because i do not play it..

“was so upset i stopped playing” ermm, is that how you remember it? at the start of the game before it had even started, you said you was not going to play because you had two thiefs on your team, you rage quit in true vingador style before the game had even started, and before you knew if we was good thiefs or not, so maybe the fact we was 4v5 because of you.. didn’t help the scores..

You should be ashame and be banned by now .
i told u i have no problem with thieves in team , the problem is that there is a problem when even before the game, u start to insult me and targeting me , and saying you going to trow the game and die .
i can take soem smack talk but there is some stuff u just dont say to players , and then expect them to carry you .

wait, i didnt insult you before the game, we only started to troll the mighty vingador, after you said " 2 thiefs gg, im not playing" or something along them lines, best thing is, most people know what your like, its not a reputation you can shake XD

look a whole youtube video dedicated to you!

Unrelenting assault or blurred frenzy bugged?

in PvP

Posted by: Noble.2670

Noble.2670

Ever since the blurred frenzy change a long time ago, casting shocking aura on a elementalist will interrupt it, since blurred frenzy is classed as an evade I just assumed shocking aura ignored evades of that nature, but, unrelenting assault is also an evade of the same nature, and shocking aura does not interrupt this skill, why? is one of them bugged, is shocking aura not meant to interrupt blurred frenzy? Or is it meant to interrupt unrelenting assault?

how to fight chorno on d/d ele

Posted by: Noble.2670

Noble.2670

hey guys, lately ive been taking the time to learn to fight all the new builds and specializations and learn there weakness’s on my d/d elementalist, classic d/d ele that is, not tempest, anyway chornomancer appears to be where i have hit my runners wall, after spending many hours trying to beat one i simply can not find the weakness, i felt this way with revs at first but after posting a post much like this on there forums and constantly dueling my rev friends, i eventually got to the point where i win 90% of the fights, so im sure this is a l2p issue,

more then anything ive found that with all there immunities, mainly from “well of precognition” and the shield block, often with the well being used twice in a row with f5, they tend to be able to out sustain me, meaning eventually i get caught with no cds (both being on 60sec cds) to escape gravity well or a tides of time combo. dodging only gets me so far, as i have to also dodge the shatters, the classic mirror blade combo, izerker, and the ileap combo..all of witch get thrown at me pretty regularly

as i said, im sure this is a l2p issue, im not here to flame chorno’s atall, just here for any tips you might be able to give me on how to beat your wonderful specialization :P!

old school d/d elementalist roaming build

Noble.2670

so with the recent changes hot has brought to other professions and the removal of guard stacks, i have been trying to come up with a new gear set for my d/d elementalist, theres been a huge power creep lately, and because d/d elementalists only have a few damage negating abilities besides dodges, its become increasingly hard to survive in this new meta.

so basically ive been toying about with some new gear sets to increase my vitality and armor while keeping my damage high enough to finish people quickly, heres the build

http://tinyurl.com/ohsdmf2

im not sure if i should be aiming for more crit damage as 170% seems a little low.

and im still not 100% sure on the exuberance runes, there overall a nice boost to my vitality, and i still keep a decent amount of power, but is the extra vitality really worth losing the might stacking i would get from strength?

has anybody else found a better way to gear themselves for the new meta? and what would you change :P!

How to fight revenant on D/D ele

Noble.2670

I’ve not come here to rage about revenants so don’t mistake this for such a post, ive simply come here for some advice on how to fight against revenants.

So basically here’s my issue, I run the general cele D/D build at the minute and I seem to always get eaten by zerker sword revenants, the sword port skill I think it’s the 3 skill, eats over half my hp sometimes, to avoid it I have to dodge 2times, I have no blocks or invuns, so dodging seems to be the only way I can avoid getting a huge amount of my hp eaten, the trouble is, after I’ve burned both my dodges sometimes 3, it leaves me open to be hit by the even harder hitting skills revenants seem to have, with ele not having much acces to strong burst heals (just water form) I struggle to recover from several large hits..

I’m pretty certain this is a l2p issue on my part and there’s clearly a few things I am not understanding, so that’s why I’m here asking you guys, teach me to play XD! How can I better fight revenants

Noble.2670

hey guys and gals

A few friends of mine have suggested i should share my current WvW roaming build on the forums, its far from anything ground breaking, but i know how constructive the community is here, so i figured why not!

here is the build link: http://tinyurl.com/banksbuildshh

i mainly solo roam so i like to keep my armor high to allow me to deal with the larger groups you come across while roaming,
the build has decent power and ferocity, witch still allows me the luxury of being able to burst down squishier opponents,
while my condition damage still allows me the pleasure of seeing 2-3k confusion ticks after a burst,
thanks to my pack runes and prismatic understanding i can reach pretty high durations on swiftness while in combat(ive seen 2 minutes+ on occasions, more then enough to escape!)
the slot skills are personal preference, i personally like the signet for the interrupt and the extra condition damage the passive brings
the food is also personal preference :P!

i think that’s about all there is to say really, the traits are rather obvious so i wont bother going over them

(I only ever roam) I’m actually in a small Zerg busting guild that would be more then welcome to have you if you come over to GH, if that isn’t your thing there’s some great community guilds (namely kiss) or raiding guilds or even GvG guilds, we have a great mixture of guilds, I think what kept me around was the great community on the server and the fact that they are always looking for fights and not just PPT (sorry for the clunkiness on my phone)

We fought this exact team yesterday and beat them 500-150..the guardian isn’t an issue if you focus him..and don’t roam..they can’t decap your home or mid if somebody is sat on it..or was you all running full zerker and not supporting each other on points..:L

Can we get that D/D ele nerf please?

in PvP

Ele’s burning doesn’t need nerfing, what needs nerfing is burning in general, the damage stacks way to high, as a zerker ele I can still reach 2.5k burn ticks, without trying, yes it isn’t my fault they eat my whole fire attunment burst, and they could avoid it, but the burn still shouldn’t tick so high, makes me feel dirty XD!

I’ve had good engis bait my cleanses then nuke me with burn ticks for 8k in wvw, luckily yet to come across that in pvp, but yer, 3ticks of a condi should not eat 24khp, so no don’t nerf ele..nerf burning…

The first thing I usually think when I get 1shot by a Mesmer now is “kitten I forgot to dodge”…

Leveling a mesmer, what do I focus on?

I’d say the most important thing to focus on would be having fun, try every weapon out, see what suites you, and what you enjoy most, just have fun and explore the proffesion, once you know what weapons you prefer you can work towards builds that suite that play style etc, mesmers have loads to offer :P

How will mesmers do against thieves?

I think one thing people tend to forget in the thief vs mesmer topics is that it’s only certain builds thiefs counter, I play mtd shatter myself (roaming) and find thiefs are rather easy to fight, maybe because there’s an abundance of them in are Mu’s so I’ve got used to anticipating there openers? But none the less I don’t feel hard countered by thiefs, and if mtd shatter is only going to get stronger then I cant see it being as big of an issue if people are willing to switch from power shatter atleast, Ofc all depending on what thiefs are going to receive

I’m personally really looking forward to all these changes, but then maybe that’s because I’ve Mained MTD shatter since it became a thing, although I can see a lot of people turning to it now, and I kind of liked that it wasn’t that common of a build before xD!

While it sounds like we are going to be very strong once again, if you take into account all the stuff other proffesions are also reciving, it would seem we are simply being put on par with everybody else, like recieving better condition application, while other proffesions are recieving better tools to deal with conditions..

We are just gonna have to wait and see how it fares, and once again explore new builds that can deal with the new builds we will be seeing from other proffesions
