Discussion

And noobs call elemental attunement a bad elite. Napalm Flame 16:04, 9 May 2007 (CEST)

Dual attune is only good for pve and AB. Either way, this particular build is kinda sucky. Why? Chain lightning. --8765 19:07, 9 May 2007 (CEST)

It'd be better to have something like GoLE for looong battles, Mending Touch, or Glyph of Elemental Power instead of Chain Lightning. Shido 03:44, 10 May 2007 (CEST)

Chain Lightning sucks. No question there. And DA isn't really necessary for most ele builds, just GoLE, an attune, and some careful energy management. But in this case, Lightning Hammer is useful to spam. Tycn 10:56, 10 May 2007 (CEST)

It describes (in variants for example) "Replace Chain Lightning with...", and the skill is not there? Since it havent been updated, what skill were supposed to be Chain Lightning? Gale? Just so you know which one to replace in those cases.

There ya go. Chain sucks big time, it was replaced. - Skakid9090º_o 00:52, 2 July 2007 (CEST)

k, thx. Personally i dont think ill be using Gale. Ill replace it with Enervating Charge or Glyph of Elemental power. For OK dmg and dmg reduction, or dmg buff all round on the skillbar.

I am not a big fan of Gale at all so I use Enervating Charge instead so I don't have to worry about dumb exhustion. I think it also works better too Joshgt2 19:10, 3 July 2007 (CEST)

Learn to use Gale. - Skakid9090 19:27, 3 July 2007 (CEST)

how this build got a great rating is beyond me its really not that good its just meh alright -UraniumJoint

Suggested skill bar YES I USE IT

Right guys, since I feel useful, here is what I've been running lately, it's not the best build ever yet as it DOES have particle attacks which suck downright, but it's all I had at the minute.

<pvxbig> [build prof=ele/any air=12 energy=12][lightning javelin][lightning strike][lightning orb][blinding flash][aura of restoration][air attunement][elemental attunement][resurrection signet] [/build] </pvxbig>

Since you should have a total of 95 energy with this build, possibly more, energy management is not a problem, as RA battles are too short. Taking exhaustion skills doesn't seem to be very wise, so I am gonna stick to taking lightning hammer instead of lightning orb, and I'm gonna get another powerful non-exhausting non-particle attack with hopefully a reasonably fast recharge like lightning javelin. I hope soon to perfect this to show you all what a decent dual attunement ele really is. And who said eles needed attack elites. And oh yes, aura makes a good cover ench for things like Drain Enchantment Napalm Flame 15:08, 10 May 2007 (CEST)

Thtat's pretty meh, unless you only have prophecies. This is probably your best bet for AB:

Just drop the Chain lightning for Mystic Regen, your gonna need the res sig for RA. Shireen 05:58, 21 May 2007 (CEST)

That's kinda overkill for the healing. Plus, if you can hit your target with lightning orb, the ranger can probably hit you with savage shot. Running around columns and walls is ftw. Blind flash as needed of course, but remember they do have mending touch. On top of all that, I wouldn't use this for RA since you should be able to wipe the enemy before running out of energy. So no need for dual attune. --8765 21:22, 22 May 2007 (CEST)

Dual attune also powers Mystic regen, and lightning hammer is 25 energy a pop, and lightning orb is 15. With this you hardly ever run out of energy and are doing 100 points of damage every few seconds. Kind of a mix between a low spike and a hard grind. Great for assisting in RA. Shireen 21:37, 22 May 2007 (CEST)

Think Kinetic Armor is far far better then Mystic Regeneration. You only need to put those 8 points from Earth Prayers into Earth Magic and with a Rune it can be 9. This gives you 56 armor and with the Aura cou can be a nice tank against other elementalists and all kinda professions as far as they do not interrupt or strip your enchantments. Ppl, pls just look into the elementalists skills and then choose which is better: Mystic R. or Kinetic A. Zollie 18:06, 11 July 2007 (CEST)

Once kinetic is stripped it's gone for awhile. You could easily re-cover your attunements with mystic regen, if it's ever removed. Plus, degen will still get you with kinetic, as apply-burning rangers and the like are very commmon in RA, AB, etc. In the end, it's rock paper scissors. --8765 18:27, 11 July 2007 (CEST)

Before I only had proph ele skills mainly, but I've tried the full working build and in truth, IT. ROXORS. UR. SOXORS. It's just amazing, being able to interrupt a monk and then send more damage his way and get all the warriors to back off... fun beyond fun. ~~ Napalm Flame ^_^ (talk)·(contributions) 11:33, 14 July 2007 (CEST)

PvE use

Purely the blinding flash, rest of the bar seems okay but not nothing more. Unexist 17:09, 6 June 2007 (CEST)

Hero tag

I have added a hero tag to this build. With a slight variant (Removing Gale for Glyph of Lesser Energy), heroes can use this build very well, as they are able to actually MANAGE their energy. I've been using a 2 elementalist line-up against Varesh in Ruins of Morah, and have found that this build is very effective at busting Varesh. In conclusion, me, a pretty ownage mind blast nuker, combined with Sousuke with this build spells death to anything. ~~ Napalm Flame ^_^ (talk)·(contributions) 14:31, 26 August 2007 (CEST)

On second thoughts, it definitely doesn't spell death to Mallyx the Unyielding, but pretty much nothing does now since the update. xP ~~ Napalm Flame ^_^ (talk)·(contributions) 14:35, 26 August 2007 (CEST)

Shell Shock

great spell

No, it isn't. Readem (talk*pvxcontribs) 06:50, 16 September 2007 (CEST)

Shell Shock is a fantastic spell that compliments this build. It has become a permanent part of it for me.--Maximusmmiv 18:12, 2 October 2007 (CEST)

Variant?

"Replace Lightning Strike with Lightning Bolt for extra damage and very little downside, if any at all."

If it's more damage and little to no downside, why isn't this on the bar and Lightning Strike listed as a variant? — ( ɔ \ ʇ ) uɐɥʇıǝɹ 20:11, 9 October 2007 (CEST)

Projectile and recharge are bad. Fix the thing saying little downside, though. --Edru viransu//QQ about me/sysop 20:55, 9 October 2007 (CEST)

Fixed. — ( ɔ \ ʇ ) uɐɥʇıǝɹ 21:01, 9 October 2007 (CEST)

Epidemic

Drop Lightning Strike and Gale for Shell Shock and Epidemic. Spread cracked armor and blind to everyone bunched up around your tank. Lightning Orb and Hammer are more than enough damage, no need for lightning strike. Gale in PvE is meh.Matti Nuke 02:05, 19 October 2007 (CEST)
