Weaver - Fresh Air Roamer

Note: if you don't want to invest into Ascended Dragon's stat pieces, Exotics from the Trading Post will do just fine. The trinkets are relatively cheap, here's a list of them from the official wiki.

Second set: you may have noticed a Focus on the second set, this one's for the tryhards. While Elementalists can't swap weapons in combat, they can still stack Bloodlust on random PvE mobs before fights using the second set then switch back to the first set once they're ready to PvP. The Bloodlust stacks will remain active without the need to sacrifice a sigil slot on the PvP set. It's enough to put 1 weapon into the second set as they'll inherit the missing one from the main set. If you have no intention to stack Bloodlust before fights then you don't need the 2nd set! It's not mandatory.

• Weaver - Freshweaver - Conquest PvP version.

• Elementalist - S/F FA Roamer - core/F2P version.

Skill Variants

Heal

• 幻光恢复 - better cleansing, but has a longer cast time and no boons.

Utility

• 秘法波动 over 电光火石 - Arcane Wave is a worse mobility tool/panic button than Lightning Flash, but it's quite powerful in its own right. Good AoE damage, CC, always crits so it can be used to recharge Air and Immobilizes targets via trait synergy.

Food

There are plenty of viable choices, including:

• - highest possible damage option, great stats plus armor ignoring damage/healing procs.

• - passive damage mitigation and same stats as the Cilantro Lime one.

• - highest damage non-ascended option.

• or - armor ignoring damage and a bit of extra healing/precision, decent budget option.

• - defensive option with more evasion.

Utility

• or , whichever is cheaper (note that the sharpening stone lasts twice as long).

Elite specialization basics

• Weaver allows the Elementalist to attune to 2 elements at the same time, and skills 1-5 will be decided based on both. Let's call them primary and secondary attunements.

• If you swap to then fire becomes your primary attunement and weapon skills 1-2 will be fire skills. Afterwards if you switch to then air is now your primary attunement and fire's moved to secondary - now skills 1-2 are air and 4-5 are fire. Skill 3 is a dual skill influenced by both active attunements ⇒ fire + air for example is .

• The order of the attunements doesn't matter here, water primary with fire secondary has the same dual attack as fire primary and water secondary. Attuning to the same element twice has its own dual skill.

• It's possible to attune twice in a row to the same element, and doing this with is going to be a part of your burst rotation.

General

• The build makes little to no use of .

• Keep swapping in-and-out of repeatedly while roaming in order to maintain .

  • Note: attuning to air twice in a row doesn't give swiftness the second time.

• 's purpose is twofold.

  • Mobility: and are excellent movement skills that can help you disengage from fights if your defensive CDs ran ou, or if you need to chase after someone.
  • Cleave: AoE in the build is rather clumsy, except for and . Use these whenever you need to cleave down a downed enemy.

• is best used in earth for the .

• isn't interrupted when you change attunements. Starting the channel in air and swapping to any other attunement is an excellent way of recharging air through as this skill hits multiple times in a short period of time. This is also a great filler in general.
