Curse

Okay, I've just finished the game as an E/R using Water, Storage and Healing, and now I want to play in the UW and FoW.
I'm just wondering, what do people look for in an Elementalist for Uw and FoW?
It's no hassle to change my secondary or to move my primary attribute points around. I just want to be useful to my group.

Also, if anyone has any ideas for Soloing UW with an E primary I'd love to hear them!

I think for both UW and FoW people look for nukers, or pyromancers with hard hitting AoEs i.e. Fire Storm, Meteor Shower, Fireball. And I'd like to hear about solo-ing UW too

I was originally an E/R until I switched to E/Mo after Ascention.
I hear about rangers doing good things with Traps in the UW.
I'm thinking maybe Fire, Storage and Wilderness could work to make a good Nuke & Trap build.

Straight up!
I'm an E/R, and for UW/FoW I use exactly that.

13+mod fire
11+mod Energy
9 WS

My build is basically so:

Fireball
Fire Storm
Meteor Shower
Rodgort's Invocation
Glyph of Energy
Troll Unguent
Fire Attunement
Serpent's Quickening/Rez Signet/Ward vs Melee (depending on group)

Although I'm normally an all out nuker, my attribute display can help me use traps easily just by switching skills.

Immortal Flame, I have never heard about soloing UW. But I did duo with a monk. It does work steadily if you both are careful enough.
