That looks pretty good however I don't carry GoLE with MB. I carry skills like blinding flash or glowing gaze (for uber e-management).

Nice picture *cough*

i run something like that but instead of LF, i take Finish him PvE skill.

I know rebirth has its uses but I dun really like it. Maybe take Sunspear rebirth signet or DPS.

up to you

otherwise looks fine

+1 or leave rezzing to H/H.

Read the descriptions for Mind Blast and Rebirth, they're contra-indicated.
Rebirth can't be used as a battle rez and makes no sense on that bar. The only time you'll need Rebirth is to recover from a wipe.

you don't need GoLe on that bar. mind blast is good enough energy management.
you can take 'finish him' or something like that. or more utility skills.

Yeah, Rebirth is lame. Take Death Pact Signet if you want a hard rez. GoLE is unneeded, if you know what you're doing MB is enough e-management. Otherwise, looks fine.

Looks good. Can take gole out for another utility if you want.

Since you have EotN, take the Ebon Battle wards. Wisdom is great to complement a caster party, and Courage should be on your bar if you don't have an imbagon.

Weapon of the Great Dwarf should be in your bar if you have any kind of physical attacker on the party, its just too imba to let out on a MB bar.

Am I the only one who still believes dual attunements is superior to MB?

I mean why spam MB when you can spam (and echo spam) Rodgort's Invocation?

Coz thats probably the only thing you can do. (and only when both attunements are up)

Because dual-attunements only cover the elemental skills, while spamming mind-blast gives you a great energy-engine, which can then act to fuel non-elemental spells.

Also, enchantments are easily stripped. Excessive energy is harder to remove, and if you weaponswap, it'll be much harder.

Dual attunements is superior to Mind Blast only if you cast nothing but elementalist spells. So if all you want to do is spam Rodgorts and some wards or what have you, then dual attunements may be for you, especially if you plan on echoing Rodgorts.

Mind Blast allows you to throw in PvE skills and skills from your secondary profession in addition to your elementalist skills, which is very cool.

However, I will say this about Mind Blast:
After the nerf, I'm finding it necessary to add an additional e-management skill to run certain builds I used to be able to run pre-nerf without an additional e-management skill. And that makes me a sad panda.

Glyph of Elemental Power + Elemental Lord will give you the original +10 energy gain back. I sometimes use that if I'm spamming GDW on physicals or something and I need the energy.

Ghostcell · Mar 30, 2008, 07:20 AM // 07:20

it depends where i'm going, if i'm with h/h i don't bother to carry a rez, i might when i'm in a pug, in which case i'll take FomF.
you don't need GolE.
i use
fire attunement
Mind Blast
Rodgorts Inv.
Glowing Gaze
Nuke #1
Nuke #2
MindBender
Optional (where rez would go, sometimes take liquid flame)
