Default 2-elem nuking

Note: This build is using skills from Nightfall, so it can't really be implemeneted until the game comes out. Also, it is pretty much only for PvE, and isn't as much a farming build as it is a complement to a full team. I also think it'd be great to use in the elite missions.

Both elems should have all points in fire and energy.

Elementalist one:

Arcane Mimicry
Fire Attunement
Savannah Heat
Deep Freeze (you can take some points out of fire and put it in water, but the main purpose is the slowdown)
Rodgort's Invocation
glowing gaze


Elementalist two:

Arcane Mimicry
Fire Attunement
Elemental Attunement
Meteor Shower
Rodgorts Invocation
glowing gaze

The other skills can be set however you like. Basically Each elem copies the other's elite. Elem 1 goes with a deep freeze, 2 with meteor shower, 1 with savannah, 2 with savannah, then they both hit with rodgorts. Obviously you can change around the heavy damage dealers, but you want to stick with big AoE spells. This can probably use a LOT of work, but with a lot of tweaking i think we can put together an awesome duo-elem team based on this. any ideas?

edit: oh, and after each elem hits with their rodgort, they can use glowing gaze and get some energy back.

and again, this isnt really a farming build (although it could be) so between the double nukes and everything else hitting, all the enemies should be pretty much dead.

Savannah Heat is going to destroy your aggro.

But they still move, which means higher level mobs, in addition to having insane armor thus your damage not really damage them, would be raging at your backline instead of your frontline.

Actually, all the 5 sec AoE hit at least 3-4 times (them getting hit twice to trigger, third time while moving out, 4th hit land sometime getting body block) on around 3/5 of the target without slow down. Hence, with deep freeze, savannah heat will be able to hit all. (considering both deep freeze and SH are present near the same time)

Unless of course, you cast while they are still moving around. Then by the time your spell come out, they are in another location, which usually result in complete miss or 1 hit.

That elite AoE is one hella AoE I must say.

PS: I prefer team mate EQ those guys inside SH, but I only got to use it in PvP alone this time... which I used gale with great sucess. (SH->gale->fireball)

I'm assuming they all hit, they're all down to 1/3 health, but they're now currently raging at your backline instead of nicely grouped up on the tank.

O.o that shouldnt be a problem, as they will all drop dead very soon.
