HI, wondering what 2ndary profession would best suit an Elementalist primary for a damage dealing character in PVP ?

Also for what in PVE (as i hear it can differ)

I currently have an Elementalist around lvl 9 and i am tossing up between Mesmer, necro or monk.

AM i overlooking a certain class?

Any help from someone on this would be greatly appreciated.

And Happy Guild Wars !

im an elementalist/mesmer, was an elementalist/monk (but I found that I had to be healing people too often, thus breaking combos I'd get going)

the elementalist/mesmer is really good for combos, the way I have it set up, before I go into battle, I put on air attunement, then arcane echo, then fire off a chain lightning at two or more enemies, then arcan echo turns into chain lightning so I dont have to wait to use it again, and hit them again, then I follow it up with hitting them with everything on my skill bar. About once theyre dead, arcane echo and chain lightning has recharged, so im ready for my next attack, and with 88 energy, I can keep this up for awhile so long as air atunement is on. (also being able to interrupt potentially dangerous elementalist attacks on your team is another key point for having 2ndry as mesmer)

fantastic.

Sounds like the response i was looking for.

So with a monk, you dont do as much damage as with a mesmer set up in secondary.

Ok thats all i needed to know, thanks.
