An Earth Elementalist...
A little build I came up with while battling those damn Stoneflesh creatures in Nightfall =\
Also meaning it's just an idea, and I haven't tested it myself yet due the lack of money to buy these skills. Profession: E/Me [skill]Mantra of Earth[/skill][skill]Stone Striker[/skill][skill]Stoneflesh Aura[/skill][skill]Teinai's Wind[/skill][skill]Aftershock[/skill][skill]Earth Attunement[/skill][skill]Elemental Attunement[/skill] Last skill is up to you I guess. If you want something to do while waiting for your attack spells to recharge you could go for Stone Dagger, Obsidian Flame or Stoning. Otherwise, go for the Resurrection Signet. AP: Inspiration Magic: 9 points (66 sec + 40% damage redux) Earth Magic: 12 + 1 + 3 Energie Storage: 9 + 1 This is how the build works: -Use Mantra of Earth -Use Elemental Attunement -Use Earth Attunement -Use Stone Striker -Use Stoneflesh Aura -Use Teinai's Wind -Use Aftershock -Start attacking with your other attack spells or wait for Teinai's Wind and Aftershock to recharge and keep up your protection. If it doesn't work, just say it and don't start yelling or crying because I haven't tested it myself. |

You don't need atunement, mantra+stone striker is more than enough. Also, a better version of this build has been around since the middle ages:

Celest, I believe he was *inspired* by them damn Stoneflesh creatures, not trying to kill them
 On the build itself... Earth Attunement + Ele Attunement is moot, the Mantra will give you more than enough energy. You could then take some more damage, a build like this (I'm assuming tank/PBAoE?) would be perfect to give Shockwave a try [skill]Shockwave[/skill] Not that I generally condone builds like this, but, hey - PvE's easy, have some fun!  Besides... I've always wanted to recommend Shockwave ever since orgasming over it during the Factions PvE test thingy... |

Shockwave really does suck. Whichever way you look at it. From the point of view of doing damage, earth is quite an anomaly. I love the line, has some of the best skills (Obsidian Flame, Grasping Earth, all the good wards) but it really is hard to use as a damage line. You usually end up working around weakness and Stoning. Not really terrible but that's all you really have.
I really hope Anet come up with some good Elites for Earth next time around. Aoe elites like Unsteady Ground and crap like Stone Sheath really aren't good enough... |

Yeah, I guess...
ATM, the only strong skills Earth truly has offensively is Unsteady Ground and Eruption - the damage isn't great, but the KD/Blind is alright. Other than that, it's Stone Daggers all the way. Churning Earth's ok too, as is Sandstorm (EDIT - I can't believe I forgot that :P) I guess, but for the most part earth guys are just Firestorm eles with perks... The major Earth nukes are too cumbersome and slow to recharge to compare. Last edited by Stormlord Alex; May 28, 2007 at 11:58 AM // 11:58.. |
