Deals rly big dommages in PvE.

Attas & Skills:

[build prof=e/a box earth=12+1+1 dead=10 energy=8+1][earth attunement][assassin's promise][shadow fang][by urals hammer!][you move like a dwarf!][aftershock][crystal wave][teinai's crystals][/build]
Usage:
-Cast ur attunement, pick a target cast AP, jump with shadow fang shouting buh! at the same time, click aftershock immidiately followed by ymlad! so that the kd comes just in time for aftershock to finish casting hence trigerring the effect and making kd last for two waves.
-The spike is very fast and powerful dealing around ~600dmg not including dw and damage done to abjacent stuff. It is a sure kill especially with party hitting the same target. Something really fun to run on an ele.

Pros:
-Big dommages, blows stuff in pve real fast.

Cons:
-Not much utility as an ele can bring and jumping to frontline being a squishy not a big problem if you aint being bad at shadowstepping.
-Dont run it with Discordway, at a point it removes all conditions from the target.

Timing on this is going to be crucial.

*5-10 seconds for the duration of [[By Ural's Hammer!] means limited +25% dmg increase

*KD from [[You Move Like a Dwarf!] is going to have to be triggered spot on, or the conditional dmg from [[[email protected]] won't be applied

*Crippled Condition from [[You Move Like a Dwarf!] is going to be stripped by [[Crystal [email protected]]/[[Teinai's [email protected]] (whichever you use first), meaning you might not hit with both (adjacent AoE, not nearby) if the target tries to kite away after the first shot.

you gave detailed info on how/when to use the skills, so hopefully if someone tries this Ele Bomb they can get the timing down. The most difficult part is going to be the [[[email protected]]/[[You Move Like a Dwarf!] combo timing (3/4 cast coupled with the instant shout activation might be tricky at first).

[ EDIT ]

You say that by using [[You Move Like a Dwarf!] with [[[email protected]] you can make the KD last for both [[Crystal [email protected]] and [[Teinai's [email protected]]? [[[email protected]] doesn't increase KD length, it deals bonus damage to KD'd enemies. The KD isn't going to last thru both Waves, though the foes might not scatter out of range before they both trigger - there is a difference.

not bad for big booms,but imo standard discordway ele build is better.

^ That and surviving in the middle of a mob with 60 armour rating.

the ymlad/aftershock combo will be hard to time and being in the middle of a mob at 60al will put a lot of pressure on you monks, very nice job on something outside the box though.

Your never will in the front line if you use Shadow Fang right you use urals, shadowfang, YMLaD, AS,CW, TW, and by that time Shadow Fang ends and your back where you started plenty of time to not get hit and be ready to do it again.

60AL is not relevant, problem is that some of you probably get the shadowstep a little wrong, no matter the pbaoe its not supposed to jump right into the mob but is more of a single target spiker like any AP builds.

Yes you are a squishy so aggro the mob first, the aggro settles on other party mambers and minions giving you more than enough possibility to jump and blow stuff up all you want, like Zidane said, you need to use shadowstep right. Also dont forget that your spike is executed in ~2.5 seconds, this build is really fast.

P.S. In case of physical mobs its good if the attack you, prot spirit and soa will solve the problem of damage and the fact of physical mobs being cramped together makes them easy prey for the build.
