View source for Weaver - D/F Support

{{MBuild

| focus = Team support and defense
}}

==Overview==
Elementalist is a great all round class, that is thus able to put out more damage in a support role than any other support-capable class. With tons of boon support now increased with Elemental Attunement combined with reduced Attunement Recharge through Weaver, the old standard team healing and condition cleansing through Arcane+Water, and its own protection augmented by barriers and improved access to vigor, played correctly, Weaver is a powerful addition to any conquest team. Elementalist also provides the best projectile hate for pesky ranged damage dealers which have seen a recent increase in popularity.

===Variants===
'''Rune'''
*{{gw2rune|Superior Rune of Strength}}
*{{gw2rune|Superior Rune of Hoelbrak}}

'''Amulet'''
*{{Amulet|Mender}} for more healing power and less tankiness. Adjust style accordingly for the shift of balance toward power over condition damage.

==Usage==
*Improving team's stay power with continuous boon, healing and cleansing support.
*Going into the same attunement twice in a row still grants the bonus from {{Trait|Elemental Attunement}} and {{Trait|Cleansing Wave}}. Abuse this for protection and condition cleansing for your team when necessary.
*Between {{Trait|Cleansing Water}}, {{Trait|Swift Revenge}} and {{Trait|Woven Stride}} you should have plenty of self-cleansing to be able to use Attune to Water for healing and cleansing allies only.
* {{Trait|Elemental Refreshment}} use dual skills when escaping regardless of target or lack of, just to gain a defensive barrier.
*You have a lot of CC skills for lock down/interrupt, specifically */Air {{gw2skill|Gale}}, */Water {{gw2skill|Comet}}, Air/Air {{gw2skill|Shocking Aura}}, Air/Water {{gw2skill|Katabatic Wind}}, Water/Earth {{gw2skill|Mud Slide}}.
*Very squishy if caught without protection, or barriers or earth attunement ready. Best to try to support without getting within striking distance, and only go for damage when opportune.

==Counters==
*Scourge's corruption are on a low cool down, but require you to be next to a shade or the scourge itself. Try to keep distance and dodge the shade casts.
