a water elementalist build? for pvp ? o.o

whoa my first posted build! o_o

ok..this is my first posted build,i did not take anyones guide/build i made this by myself because i never see many water elementalist's and it's for fun =d

attributes : water magic 15(12+1+2) energy storage 12(12)

armor : i just have "4 survivor insignias" on my armor...with "1 radiant insignia" on my chest...and "3 runes of vitae..."1 rune of minor vigor"..."1 rune of attunement"...and the 1 "rune of major water magic(i usually put it on my head)"

weapons : i use a "water wand" with a "wand wrapping of memory" halves skill recharge on spells of item's attribute (chance: 20%)
and a "strength and honor inion" damage +15% (while health is above 50%)

and my off-hand is a "frost artifact" with a "focus core of fortitude" health +30
and a "forget me not inion" halves skill recharge of spells of item's attribute (chance:20%)

with all that you should have "565 health" and "80 energy"
and your skill have a 40% chance in recharging in half the time!

skills : slot 1 :water attunement - enchantment spell. for 60 seconds, you are attuned to water. you gain 1 energy plus 30% of the base energy cost of the skill each time you use water magic.10 energy - 2 second cast - 45 second recharge
slot 2 : blurred vision - hex spell. for 10 seconds, target foe and adjacent foes are hexed with blurred vision. while hexed, those foes have a 50% chance to miss with attacks.10 energy - 1 second cast - 12 second recharge
slot 3 : freezing gust - hex spell. if target foe is under the effect of a water magic hex, that foe is struck for 80 cold damage. otherwise, that foe moves 66% slower for 6 seconds.10 energy - 1 second cast - 5 second recharge
slot 4 : glowing ice - spell. target foe is struck for 50 cold damage. if that foe is under the effects of a water hex, you gain 9 energy. 5 energy - 1 second cast - 8 second recharge
slot 5 : vapor blade - spell. target foe is struck for 135 cold damage. vapor blade deals half damage if that foe has any enchantments on them. 15 energy - 2 second cast - 7 second recharge
slot 6 : *elite* shatterstone elite hex spell. target foe is struck for 100 cold damage and is hexed with shatterstone for 3 seconds. when shatterstone ends, that foe is struck for 100 cold damage.15 energy - 2 second cast - 8 second recharge
slot 7 : maelstrom - spell. create a maelstrom at target foe's location. for 10 seconds, foes adjacent to that area are struck for 25 cold damage each second. maelstrom interrupts spell-casting when it hits. this spell causes exhaustion.25 energy - 2 second cast - 30 second recharge
slot 8 : frigid armor - enchantment spell. for 25 seconds, you have 40 armor against physical damage and cannot be set on fire. 5 energy - 1 second cast - 20 second recharge

before you go into battle cast water attunement and frigid armor(so when you cast any other spells you will get energy...you will have 100 armor against physical damage and you can't be burned)

blind them with "blurred vision" now you can either hit them with "glowing ice" for 50 damage and +9 energy,and save "freezing gust" for a snare with "maelstrom" or use freezing gust for 80 damage.
after you use that hit them with your "vapor blade" for 135 damage
surprise them with "shatterstone" to try and score 200damage on your foe(they usually don't notice a 3 second hex on them,haha)
now if you saved "freezing gust" snare them with it*as long as there isn't one of your nasty water hexes on them*
and cast "maelstrom" so they can't get away and heal them selfs

works great in ab! ;]

i hope you guys enjoyed my short lil water magic build...
it's first one so....i hope i did a good job xd

You might want an enchantment removal for vapor blade to do it's maximum damage, the enchantment removal namely Signet of Twilight.

RE: a water elementalist build? for pvp ? o.o

i'm a long time water user in ab. i've even written a (outdated i must admit) guide on the subject.

what i've been using in ab lately is the following:

1: ice spear: amazing damage when spammed.
2: shatterstone (e): very painful, best used on casters.
3: ice spikes: combines into a spike with shatterstone, good on shrines when combined with maelstrom, good on runners.
4: maelstrom: perfect to shut a castershrine down for 10 seconds. combine with ice spikes.
5: blurred vision: don't give those assassins even a chance :-p. don't forget to cast this on rangers who often interrupt.
6: frigid armor: more self defence. burning arrow? i think not! mark of rodgort? not a chance...
7: aura of restoration: nice selfheal and more importand cover enchantment for your attunement.
8: water attunement: well, duh :-p.

give it a try, it's surprisingly effective and nobody prepares for this.

cody~

only remark is that, perhaps instead of +30 (allway's), you could switch that for an updare "...of devotion" so you'll get +45 (while enchanted). only remark though.

a very nice build, i still think it s*cks that water magic has such long casting times for their spells, but whatever...

whoa! flying cat!!....j/k

okeedokee....i'm glad that some people liked it ^^

glowing ice is a eotn skill? i'm sorry i didn't know! =o
instead of "glowing ice" put in "ice spear" like said above works great if spamed only 5 energy,half the range of a normal spell though...

and i never thought of using the core +45 health when enchanted! lol

i hardly ever see any water elementalist =? i normally see fire or air.....

sorry the guide is kinda sloppy...i'll try and make a better mesmer build ^^

edit --> lol forgot,i wont be able to play guild wars till later or tomorrow *busy* but i will get the template code when i can ;]
