概述 Overview

The main purpose of this build is to maximize the amount of auras and boons shared by the Elementalist. Tempest can also be used instead for the same role, see here:a comparison

Compared to D/F Fire Tempest builds, it does not bring significant healing. Therefore it cannot be used as direct replacement but needs to be paired with a powerful healing spec in the party, such as a Vindicator.

The advantage of Catalyst is that it brings more access to auras, similar cleanses, access to Quickness Quickness:a faster cast as well as access to ranged Resistance ResistanceProtection Protection:powerful ranged support among other boons.

使用说明 Usage

General/Energy Management

  • To generate energy for Catalyst's Jade Sphere abilities make sure to hit enemies with skills that have a high number of hits:
  • You want to rotate through elements quickly to get as many boons as possible
    • You can be quite flexible with your rotation, but make sure to always have a blast lined up to proc in
      • This is easiest if you swap from while casting
Skill Usage and Rotation Toggle
      • Edit after balance patch 2023/06/27: After the latest patch, if you use to proc ,you cannot again, as the aura duration from got stealth nerfed. You now need to proc it instead with a delayed or hope to get a finisher from instead. !
  • The main goal of our gameplay loop is to provide a high boon uptime:
    • On
    • On auras by utilising
      • For this we need to complete finishers in Air and Earth and Water. Blasting in Fire is not required as we gain Fire Aura Fire Aura
  • This means that we want to rotate through all attunemts at a quick pace, roughly once every 15 seconds.
  • A good order to go through attunements is
    • Note that many skills on staff have a cooldown higher than 15 seconds, so that these skills will only be up every other time.
  1. In
    • - use this to CC the enemy. Place on own backline to slow enemy pushes or on the enemy while pushing.
    • - this will proc and give us another Magnetic Aura Magnetic Aura
    • - not strickly necessary but a delayed backup finsher for in
  2. While
    • - place on whoever needs the Resistance Resistance from the initial proc of and such that your team will spend maximal time in it.
    • - starting this cast in Earth while swapping to Air will proc in Air for the Shocking Aura Shocking Aura
    • - place on DPS players. Place it right after the Earth sphere, to minimize the time where you don't generate energy.
  3. In
    • - extra cleanses and Superspeed Superspeed
    • - use this to CC the enemy. Place on own backline to slow enemy pushes or on the enemy while pushing.
    • - an extra knockback
    • - AoE blind
  4. While
    • When using a delayed blast finisher () to proc in Air for the Shocking Aura Shocking Aura,make sure that the finisher goes off before swapping our of Air
    • You might want to delay swapping out of Air a bit, if you want to have access to in Air soon
  5. In
    • - AoE for energy generation
    • - AoE for energy generation and AoE blind. Note that there might still be a Sphere active at the start, so delay a bit for Energy.
    • - Repositioning
  6. While
    • Make sure you have more than 10 Energy before swapping out of Fire. If not, place another
    • If you have more than 20 Energy before swapping, you can place
  7. In
    • - delayed blast for
    • - for targeted healing
    • - for Frost Aura Frost Aura
    • - big AoE cleanse and healing. Place towards the direction your team is moving.
  8. While
    • We can time the blast on so that it procs in Earth. This is good since the staff skill will be on cooldown still
  • On the second loop:
    • on Staff will be on cooldown, so we need to proc Magnetic Aura Magnetic Aura differently:
      • Use a delayed
      • Use - These are projectiles and need to hit to count as a projectile finisher. Inconsistent because of projectile block.
      • Use - Backup finisher
      • Use - Takes a long time to proc, so it's better to use a quicker method.
    • will be on cooldown, so we want to proc in Water with
    • will be on cooldown, so our cleanses will be lower this round.

Detailed Explanations

Glyph of Renewal

  • Focus on reviving allies who are far away with ,don't waste the skill on players that can be hand rezzed.
    • If possible, use on yourself while casting for Quickness Quickness
    • This still speeds up the cast if you use the sphere after you started casting the glyph
  • Use in on single players and on multiple players
    • If you can't be in a good position, don't cast in

Aurashare/Condition clear

      • This also works with ,but these skills proc a projectile finisher only when they hit an enemy. does not track the enemy, so its impossible to hit. is a skill shot, but unreliable due to reflects.

Boonshare

  • Prioritize
    • If you have spare energy use Vigor VigorMight Might
      • You don't gain energy from attacks while a Jade Sphere is deployed. Thus, you want to use after the spheres from earth and air have run out. Regardless, you passively gain three energy from
  • Make sure to land the Jade Sphere cast on top of allies for the boons from
  • Place your spheres so that one edge is on your allied group and the other edge is where your group is moving to
    • Optimally leave it somewhere your group is regrouping

Settings

  • Under General Options / User Interface check Always show squad health barsAlways show party health bars。 These will make it much easier to keep track of who needs your support.
  • Also under General Options / User Interface turn on Thick party health bars
    • Thick squad health bars can be used too as a matter of personal preference, but is not recommended for large numbers
  • Under Squad Options check View as a grid。 This will allow you to keep track of your allies' health and be quicker in using 。 While this doesn't allow you to see conditions on allies, most of your cleanses are passively applied anyway.
