When are dual attunements OK in PvE?

I run dual attune fire almost all the time in PvE, for two main reasons:

1) I hate waiting for energy to regen and doing nothing when my energy has run out.

2) It's fun to pwn the nub AI with [card]Rodgort's Invocation[/card] 3 words:amen to that!

dual attune rodgorts spammer is better than SF imo,it allows less skill slots for energy management(most sf bars ive seen usually has skill 1:sf,6 skills for E-management and res xD)
plus SF is easily countered by destroyers+frigid armour
and when you dual attune rodgorts you can add party support through monk skills like aegis,gift of health or whatever removing pressure off monks
waiting for energy to regen:3 minutes
pressure off monks and one of the best energy managements on the gamericeless

theres some things money cant buy,for everything else theres arena.net
(go go mastercard advert+yu gi oh abridged series for giving me the idea for that^^)

Both have enough energy to spam the crap out of rodgort's. However, dual attunement are horrendously vulnerable to interrupts, enchant stripping, and targets dying before your spell finishes. They also take 5.5 seconds every 60 or so to recast, which is a minor pain. Mind blast, on the other hand, adds some nifty damage, lets you spam non-elementalist skills, and doesn't rely on enchantments.

Dual attunements is really only good for air builds running blinding flash, lighting hammer, and lightning orb IMO.

Not owning Nightfall would be the big reason to use dual attunements, as chapter 1 and 2 elites tend to be really bad.

Glyph of Lesser Energy + Attunement generally gives enough energy now to use your elite of choice for a single element build. I only feel like I want elite emanagement when running a lot of different skills from different lines. Air is the only line that can really take advantage of the double attunes at all, and that's just because its spells are so overpriced. If you stick to the spells with reasonable costs for the effects, your energy is great. what you said is very true.

also alot of people dont use dual attune I suppose as for most missions dungeons, challenges etc people want sf, sh and so on so people kinda get used to using those (like me )

Quick question for those running "Rodgort spam" builds after the buff...

Do you guys use Arcane Echo with Rodgort? Because once every 15 seconds can't really be called "spam", can it? No, but once every 5 seconds can.

No, but once every 5 seconds can. My bad, forgot they buffed both the cast time and the recast.

I added RI to my SF bar after the buff, but haven't played my Ele in about a month so I must have forgotten just how insanely good that buff was. Damn, 15 seconds down to 5, lol.
