The question is, whats the best ele build to be used in sab's 3 necro build?

Mind Blast with utility sab cannot handle:
interupt: YMLAD
hex removal: convert hexes/cure hex
Party Healing: Heal Party, Breath of the Great Dwarf

I'd say Mind blast + Rodgorts invocation or Arcane echo + Savannah Heat. The minions help somewhat in keeping the foes in SH for the whole duration.

Mindblast+utilitys or go air spiker. You'd also lay down some useful conditions with air (blind, weakness, cracked armour).

ursan tank if its 4man and you have decent UB rank (my ele has 10 so this works well)... since its nice to have a frontliner with Sabway in 4man zones. if you're going in like an 8man, mind blast prob wins

Oh god. No, please, no, not Ursan, NOOO!!!!! Just kidding. Hey, however you want to play, you want to play. The build you use won't even matter if you use A. Consumables B. Ursan or C. Haxor.

But, in that case that you don't use A, B or C, I was thinking about a good air build.

You could either go Blinding Surge, Enervating, and the Cracked Armor skill, or you could run dual attunements and run Blinding Flash.

Yeah, depending on how you configure the "spare" slots on the MM and SS bars, Sab's team build can be missing interrupts, damage mitigation, and stuff like that.

Blinding, Wards and stuff like Maelstrom, or Knockdowns can definitely help the team. If you always lead with your minions, dropping a Savannah Heat on your minion wall is always nice.

PvE skills like Pain Inverter, Technobabble, Assassin Support, Ebon Vanguard wards also work great with minions and in general.

Lots of options for elementalists.

Crap like Immolate, Heats and stuff just gets in the way of spamming Rodgort's and Mind Blast. It's like being a monk with 8 Healing Prayers spells - a wasteful, shit bar.
