Runes

Rune of Speed's 6th bonus helps with both sticking to targets and leaving them behind which is quite nice on a build with very little mobility. If you think you'll be fine without the speed boost, other viable options include:

  • Rune of Superior Rune of Durability - pure sustain, good boon duration.
  • Rune of Superior Rune of Antitoxin - the 6th bonus helps a lot vs conditions especially when running Soothing Water.

Bati gave this build 5 stars • September 2023
The change to Windstorm now giving superspeed, and not distancing the player between their target, lowers the difficulty in setting up and landing hammer combo damage. Power hybrid hammer variants benefit from the greater ease in lock down; however, mobility becomes a must when considering dropping celestial stats (e.g. speed relic, lightning flash). The build maintains itself as a potent 1v1 spec regardless.

Highly susceptible to immob and kiting, but otherwise fine. Most other ele specs are just flat out better for roaming

Extremely strong 1v1 spec, Hammer was just made for Cele and we know already how well ele works with that stat in general. Makes good use of every stat, great hybrid damage, condition cleansing is not that faceroll and fighting condi specs takes some caution. Mobility's kinda bad but the rune might help.
