====Weapon Variants====
 +
* {{Tooltip|Sword}} - more evades, but melee-only; replaces {{Tooltip|Scepter}}
 +
* {{Tooltip|Dagger|Mainhand Dagger}} - very good cleave DPS, but melee-only; replaces {{Tooltip|Scepter}}
 +
* {{Tooltip|Pistol}} - strong alternative to {{Tooltip|Scepter}} (requires Weaponmaster).
  
−
===Weapon Variants===
+
====Skill Variants====
−
* Mainhand dagger has about the same damage of sword but you will be dashing all over the place.
+
When replacing utilities, do not replace {{Skill|Signet of Fire}} or {{Skill|Primordial Stance}}.
−
* Scepter trades some damage and active defense for a ranged attacks with a simple rotation.
 
−
** Note that {{Skill|Primordial Stance}} and {{Trait|Sunspot}} require you to be in close range to deal damage.

−
===Skill Variants===
 
−
====Healing====
 
 
* {{Skill|Glyph of Elemental Harmony}} - burst healing
 
* {{Skill|Glyph of Elemental Harmony}} - burst healing
−
 
+
* {{Skill|Signet of Earth}} - great defensive/offensive option
−
====Utilities====
+
* {{Skill|Arcane Shield}} - strong defensive cooldown + stunbreak
−
Glyph of Elemental Power can be replaced by:
+
* {{Skill|Glyph of Storms}} - good for AOE damage or AOE blind
−
* {{Skill|Stone Resonance}} - stability and huge barrier.
+
* {{Skill|Cleansing Fire}} - great condition cleanse
−
* {{Skill|Twist of Fate}} - stunbreak with 2 charges.
+
* {{Skill|Lightning Flash}} - mobility
−
* {{Skill|Glyph of Storms}} - AoE burst damage from {{Skill|Firestorm (Glyph of Storms)}} or pulsing blind with {{Skill|Sandstorm}}.
+
* {{Skill|Weave Self}} - alternative to {{Skill|Glyph of Elementals}}
−
* {{Skill|Glyph of Lesser Elementals}} - summons multiple weak elementals. Can be awkward to use due to setup delay and the summons disappearing upon mounting up or entering water. Fire elemental deals good burning damage, while Water and Earth are moderately tanky.
 
−
* {{Skill|Lightning Flash}} - mobility.
 
−
 
 
−
====Elites====
 
−
* {{Skill|Glyph of Elementals}} - sacrifices the very large damage increase from Weave Self in exchange for a pet. The Flame elemental provides high DPS (be sure to use the command skill on CD where possible) while Water and Earth give you a reliable front line.

====Earth====
 
−
Earth can be taken instead of Arcane to sacrifice boons and sustain in exchange for more damage. Generally speaking, Arcane is better when soloing, and Earth is better with groups, specially if the group is giving you boons.

===Gear Variants===
+
==Consumables==
−
* If you can afford the luxury of a gear set tailored for open world, use full {{Tooltip|Trailblazer}} gear, which trades about 15-20% DPS for +300% effective HP through vitality and toughness for a massive boost to your survivality. Use {{Rune|Superior Rune of the Undead}}, {{Sigil|Superior Sigil of Malice}} or {{Sigil|Superior Sigil of Smoldering}} and {{Sigil|Superior Sigil of Energy}}.
+
Budget consumables are acceptable for use in open world.
−
* Alternatively {{Tooltip|Celestial}} is another luxury gear option trading the raw condition damage of {{Tooltip|Trailblazer}} for a mix of added strike damage, healing and boon duration making this a powerful option for solo play.
 
  
−
'''Budget'''
+
===DPS===
−
* {{Tooltip|Dire}} - budget {{Tooltip|Trailblazer}}; this should be used with {{Rune|Superior Rune of Balthazar}} and {{Sigil|Superior Sigil of Smoldering}} to increase burning duration since Dire doesn't have Expertise.
+
* Prioritize '''Flatbread''' Ascended food.
−
'''Sigils'''
+
* {{Food|Plate of Beef Rendang}} / {{Food|Bowl of Truffle Risotto}}
−
* {{Sigil|Superior Sigil of Cleansing}} - more condition cleanse.
+
* {{Utility|Master Tuning Crystal}} / {{Utility|Tuning Icicle}}
−
* {{Sigil|Superior Sigil of Energy}} - more dodges, great Synergy with {{Trait|Evasive Arcana}} and {{Trait|Invigorating Strikes}}.
 
−
* {{Sigil|Superior Sigil of Strength}} - more might generation for longer fights.

* {{Food|Bowl of Orrian Truffle and Meat Stew}}

==Usage==
 
==Usage==
−
This build primarily relies on {{Skill|Fire Attunement}} and {{Skill|Earth Attunement}}. It is not particularly difficult to play, but has a lot of options to respond to different situations and requires a bit of game knowledge to take advantage of.
 
−
 
 
===Damage===
 
===Damage===
−
'''General DPS'''
+
* Focus primarily on {{Skill|Fire Attunement}} and {{Skill|Earth Attunement}}.  
−
* Spam all of your fire and earth skills.
+
* {{Skill|Air Attunement}} can be used to apply {{Tooltip|Vulnerability}}.
−
* You can combine {{Skill|Lava Skin}}, {{Skill|Glyph of Elemental Power}}, and {{Skill|Primordial Stance}} with {{Skill|Obsidian Flesh}} for a large burst of damage while you are invulnerable.
+
* Double Attune to elements to proc {{Trait|Elements of Rage}}
−
* If you start an auto attack chain in Fire Attunement, try to finish it. With all the skills at your disposal with frequent attunement swapping, you won't be auto attacking much either way.
+
* Constantly swap elements to proc {{Trait|Weaver's Prowess}}
−
 
+
* Use {{Skill|Primordial Stance}}, {{Skill|Signet of Fire}}, and {{Skill|Glyph of Elemental Power}} off cooldown.
−
'''Skill Priority'''
+
* Summon {{Skill|Glyph of Elementals}} in Fire and activate its skill off cooldown.
−
 
 
−
This build follows a generic skill priority depending on your current attunements. Fill any empty space with auto-attacks, only delaying attunement swaps for Fire autos.
 
−
You should start in Air/Fire or Earth/Fire so you can rapidly get to Fire/Fire for the dual attunement buff.
 
  
−
'''Fire/Fire'''
+
====Loop Priorities====
−
# {{Skill|Flamewall}}
+
* There are many viable loop patterns to use for weaver.
−
# {{Skill|Flame Uprising}}
+
* The general idea is to focus on Fire-Fire as the "default". From there, loop into either Earth or Air, alternating between the two after each Fire-Fire.
−
# {{Skill|Cauterizing Strike}}
+
* A suggested example is as follows:
−
# {{Skill|Fire Shield}}
+
# {{Skill|Fire Attunement}} / {{Skill|Air Attunement}}
−
# {{Skill|Transmute Fire}} - use only against single targets; against groups it is better to keep fire aura unless you need {{Tooltip|Might}}
+
# Start combat with {{Skill|Lightning Orb}}
 +
# {{Skill|Fire Attunement}} / {{Skill|Fire Attunement}} <-- Loop starts here
 +
# {{Skill|Earth Attunement}} / {{Skill|Fire Attunement}}
 +
# {{Skill|Fire Attunement}} / {{Skill|Earth Attunement}}
 +
# {{Skill|Fire Attunement}} / {{Skill|Fire Attunement}}
 +
# {{Skill|Air Attunement}} / {{Skill|Fire Attunement}}
 +
# {{Skill|Fire Attunement}} / {{Skill|Air Attunement}}
 +
# Repeat the loop
 +
# Quick Text Version: open with f/a to get in combat -> f/f -> e/f -> f/e -> f/f -> a/f -> f/a -> f/f (repeat)
 +
# Your attunement presses will look like this: Fire(Opener)-Earth-Fire-Fire-Air-Fire-Fire
  
−
'''Fire/Earth'''
+
This can appear complex, but with only a few minutes of practice the loop becomes very rhythmic and most players will find it easy to follow.
−
# {{Skill|Flame Uprising}}
 
−
# {{Skill|Magnetic Wave}} (to blast might)
 
−
# {{Skill|Lava Skin}}
 
  
−
'''Earth/Fire'''
+
====Fire Priority====
−
# {{Skill|Flamewall}}
+
# {{Skill|Wildfire}}
−
# {{Skill|Lava Skin}} (if not used in F/E)
+
# {{Skill|Dragon's Tooth}}
−
# {{Skill|Earthen Vortex}}
+
# {{Skill|Phoenix}}
−
# {{Skill|Fire Shield}}
+
# {{Skill|Heat Sync}}
−
# {{Skill|Transmute Fire}} - use only against single targets; against groups it is better to keep fire aura unless you need {{Tooltip|Might}}
 
  
−
'''Earth/Earth'''
+
====Air Priority====
−
# {{Skill|Rust Frenzy}}
+
# {{Skill|Lightning Orb}}
−
# {{Skill|Earthen Vortex}}
+
# {{Skill|Lightning Strike}}
−
# Get out of earth/earth as fast as possible. It is sometimes even better to skip this if Earthen Vortex is already on cooldown before you would swap.
 
  
−
'''Air/Fire'''
+
====Earth Priority====
−
# {{Skill|Pyro Vortex}}
+
# {{Skill|Fracturing Strike}}
−
# {{Skill|Flamewall}}
+
# {{Skill|Dust Storm}}
−
# {{Skill|Fire Shield}}
+
# {{Skill|Rock Barrier}} {{to}} {{Skill|Hurl}}
−
# {{Skill|Transmute Fire}} - use only against single targets; against groups it is better to keep fire aura unless you need {{Tooltip|Might}}
 
−
# {{Skill|Polaric Leap}} inside {{Skill|Flamewall}} or {{Skill|Flame Uprising}} for Fire Aura
 
−
 
 
−
===Utilities===
 
−
Primordial Stance and Glyph of Elemental Power change drastically depending on your current attunement, and its important to consider what attunement is best to use them in
 
−
* {{Skill|Primordial Stance}} considers the element on your mainhand and the element on your offhand to determine what condition to pulse, and updates every second. As such, for the highest damage, use it right before double attuning to Earth for high {{Tooltip|Bleeding}} damage, or in Air for {{Tooltip|Vulnerability}}.
 
−
* {{Skill|Glyph of Elemental Power}} changes its effect depending on your mainhand attunement, and is best used in Air for {{Tooltip|Vulnerability}} or in Fire for high {{Tooltip|Burning}} damage.
 
−
* {{Skill|Signet of Fire}} is your highest damage skill, spam it off cooldown, even when not using {{Trait|Written in Stone}}.
 
  
 
===Defense===
 
===Defense===
−
* {{Skill|Magnetic Wave}}, {{Skill|Swirling Winds}} - projectile hate.
+
* {{Skill|Glyph of Elementals}} - Earth and Water are strong tank pets
−
* {{Skill|Obsidian Flesh}} - invulnerability.
+
* {{Skill|Signet of Restoration}} - passive heal
−
* Using a Dual Attack gives {{Tooltip|Vigor}}, and dodging gives barrier, thanks to {{Trait|Invigorating Strikes}}.
+
* {{Skill|Sand Squall}} - reflect projectiles
−
* {{Skill|Riptide}} and {{Skill|Earthen Vortex}} both make you evade for 1 second.
+
* {{Skill|Dust Storm}} - aoe {{Tooltip|Blind}}
−
 
+
* {{Skill|Rock Barrier}} - barrier + toughness
−
===Sustain===
 
−
* {{Skill|Signet of Restoration}} heals you for every single skill you cast.
 
−
* {{Skill|Riptide}} creates a water field where you can use your combo finishers to heal, such as {{Skill|Polaric Leap}}, {{Skill|Magnetic Wave}}, {{Skill|Earthen Vortex}}, {{Skill|Flame Uprising}}.

An amazing build! Deals a lot of damage against enemies and probably my favorite for now to play Elementalist with!

Vicmont82 gave this build 5 stars • September 2022
I was pretty frustrated with most builds until i tried this. Really good for solo(arcane) and great for groups(earth).

Linera gave this build 5 stars • January 2021
My all time favorite ele build. Feels much more dynamic and fast-paced when compared to any tempest build, pair that with above average self-healing, and the ability to kill most trash mobs with the single press of a button, and you get a fun, fast, powerhouse of a elementalist that can take on even some more difficult content.
5 stars
Jack Armstrong gave this build 5 stars • December 2020
One of my top 3 favorite builds right now, the others being Condi Mirage (melee) and Shortbow Renegade. Very configurable: multiple good weapon choices, and you could probably do well with any utility skills you want, though the ones listed here are likely the best choice for general use. Very durable, yet good damage. While switching stuff around, I ended up with 2 condi clears (Sigil of Cleansing and Diamond Skin trait) and found that, with those and of all the passive barrier and healing applications, I could kill pretty much all of the PoF repeatable hero points while hardly ever moving or dodging, usually losing little or no health in the process. Pretty easy to use, too: as long as you switch attunements often, you can kill stuff pretty quickly with almost random weapon and utility skill usage--though intelligent use gets better results, of course.

A really strong open world build for ele that's great in virtually all situations.
