Hey folks, just got to level 20 this morning and have been trying my hand with Random Arenas, I was using a pure nuking lightning build but that doesn't seem to be doing very well for me, it might just be because of a lack of experience, but i've been thinking I should try a pure healing build or maybe a mixture of both, not quite sure though.

I have no idea where to start as far as builds go either, would someone care to give me a little bit of advice? Maybe a good start on a skill build? I have access to Prophecies and Factions skills.

Thanks!

Elementalists shouldn't heal. rofl. Don't use your PVE character, do your team a favor and use PVP.

You could go with Earth and Protection I can't give you a specific build as I have one on my templates.I was going to say Aegis but you don't need that in RA just some protects will do fine.you would want Earth to help protect your self and no I wouldn't use wards.

I used that build for a long time, both for AB and RA. It works very well in both, seeing as very few warriors/dervishes/assasins/paragons/rangers actually bring anti-blind measures. Spamming out blinding flash is one of my favourite pastimes now.

As long as you don't run into enchantment stripping (not much in RA, but it happens) or an overflow of physicals (happens a lot, but manageable), you'll be doing very well.

Mind Blaster is still effective and usable.

But B-Surger has gone...

(I miss it, myself)
And roll a PvP char, you need a decent amount of money to gear characters up for PvP.

Eles are annoying expensive to gear up for PvP, but since you're doing RA, it really doesn't matter if you're running with minor vigor or don't have the right insignias.

P.S.
1) Nuking is bad in most PvP.
2) Nuking and air doesn't go together.

Blinding Flash Dual Attunes is pretty good with some nice air damage skills.

Do yourself a favor and roll a PvP character.

If your set on using air, there are only a few skills to go with it but i suggest you go E/Rt using something like this

Air Attunement
Lightening Orb
GoLE
Blinding Flash
(optional)
A.Rage
Splinter Weapon
Death Pact

12+2+1
10+1
10
(not sure if thats exact)

Good Luck, Have fun

i hope by optional, you mean an elite. and dont use death pact sig in low end pvp.
