The Necromancer, one of the best professions in the game, but not seeing its full potential

Thanks to its primary attribute, Soul Reaping, the Necromancer is one of the most flexible professions to play in Guild Wars. It is a staple in almost every team played, be it PvE or PvP, providing additional bodies to tank or to deal damage as a Minion Master, providing crowd control with Curses, granting energy management with Blood is Power, spiking with life steal or armor ignoring damage, or offering support by making use of its secondary profession skills, such as a Ritualists' Restoration Magic skills and a Monk's Protection Prayers skills. However, the skills the Necromancer does use are usually the same select few and many of its skills go underused. My main goal is to have these underused skills see play in builds with potential that currently do not see regular play in teams.

• Wells

First of all, I want to adress the Well spells. In potential they are very good spells to play, but the problem is that they are competing with the Minion Master build, as they also require an exploitable corpse to be used. Over time, exploiting corpses to summon minions has proven to be the most effective, and that is something that will simply not change. To have the Wells see play, I removed the corpse exploit requirement entirely. Instead they are spells that can target both allies and foes and creates a Well at the location of the target, similar to how you can exploit a corpse of both a foe and an ally. As compensation, they also gained a health sacrifice as additional cost. Some of the Well spells also have their effects changed to fit their more pro-active use.

With the Well spells of Blood Magic being designed to support allies, they see little change. As an elite skill, I did replace the health regeneration with an attribute increase of Well of Power to make it a more pro-active support skill.

The Well spells that are in Curses have been redesigned to fit the crowd control playstyle better, acting as control-centric AoE pressure tools that enemies will need to avoid. The changes they received is to cover a type of AoE control that the Necromancer does not have access to yet.

The Well Spells in Death Magic have been designed to deal damage and support pressure from the conditions the spells in Death Magic can inflict.

• Blood Support

A role I want to improve for the Necromancer, is its ability to play as an offensive support character. While the Order enchantments currently do see play, they are being played primarily by an Elementalist, not the Necromancer itself. This is something I want to change. To make them easier to play for the Necromancer, I added the effect that they return health for each party member enchanted by them if Soul Reaping is 4 more more. This should not hurt their playability for professions that play a Necromancer as their secondary profession, while making it easier for the primary Necromancers to play them outside a dedicated build like the Elementalist does. The main aim is to create support spells that make a martial heavy team build much more viable to play, as this game is currently dominated by spellcaster team builds. Of course these changes are not without forgoing the spellcaster support.

Blood Bond 10% 1 1 8 Hex spell (12 seconds). Also hexes foes adjacent to target foe. Allies hitting these foes gain 5...17...20 health. If any of these foes die while hexed, adjacent allies are healed for 20...84...100

• Life Steal

Blood Spike has been a notorious PvP build, but is a build that has never seen much play in PvE. The goal of the following suggested changes is to make the life steal spells less spike-centric and have them work in tendem with Blood Magic's support spells, combining life steal with support. I made the spells with the "Gaze" nomenclature more consistent for the Necromancer, with all of them having a bonus effect when the spell targets a foe with a condition. The intention with these changes is to have these life steal spells be effective in both PvE and PvP, and not just PvP.

Barbed Signet 8% 1 10 Signet. Inflicts bleeding condition (3...13...15 seconds) to target foe and foes adjacent to target foe.

Signet of Suffering 8% 4 Elite Signet. Inflicts bleeding condition (3...13...15 seconds) to the foe targeted by your next Necromancer skill and foes adjacent to that foe. You gain 1...4...5 energy if target foe is already suffering from a condition.

Strip Enchantment 10 1 20 Spell. Removes 0...2...2 enchantment[s] from target foe. Removal effect: steal 5...53...65 health.

• Shadow Damage

An other source of armor ignoring damage the Necromancer has in Blood Magic is shadow damage. The following spells I designed to be much more pressure focused, dealing low damage, but inflicting a variety of debilitating conditions to multiple foes at once. The low damage of these spells is compensated by Unholy Feast and Feast of Corruption, which removes all of the conditions to deal a significant amount of armor ignoring damage/life steal. Since many of these spells have a health sacrifice as cost, they also help to regain to regain your lost health. Having these spells remove all of the conditions for their life steal is to prevent a team spike.

Barbed Signet 8% 1 10 Signet. Inflicts bleeding condition (3...13...15 seconds) to target foe and foes adjacent to target foe.

Signet of Suffering 8% 4 Elite Signet. Inflicts bleeding condition (3...13...15 seconds) to the foe targeted by your next Necromancer skill and foes adjacent to that foe. You gain 1...4...5 energy if target foe is already suffering from a condition.

• Tainted Flesh Toucher

The "Toucher" is a build that has seen quite a lot of success in the past, with Vampiric Touch and Vampiric Bite being the cornerstone skills. The problem is, it's a Ranger build, and the Necromancer never plays them. To allow the Necromancer play a toucher build, I moved Tainted Flesh, an elite skill that rarely sees play, to Blood Magic, and overhauled its effect. Like the Ranger's inherent effect of Expertise, Tainted Flesh now grants the same effect for Soul Reaping, reducing the energy cost of your touch skills. The high energy cost has always been the biggest barrier for the playability of Vampiric Touch and Vampiric Bite. As this build requires you to be in melee range, and the Ranger having a low armor rating, I added an armor increase to make this build safer to use. Since you are also chasing after your enemies, I also gave it a movement speed increase, though I do suggest to make this effect PvE only. As for the touch skills themselves, I made some changes to some of them that help out playing this melee ranged build and can play an effective "Toucher" build. I also want to address Plague Touch specifically. While it fits well in Blood Magic's Toucher build, I believe this skill fits much better in No Attribute as a non-scaling skill, and make it more accessable to Necromancer secondary players, Melee players in particular.

Tainted Flesh 5 ¼ 20 Enchantment spell (30 seconds). Inflicts disease condition (1...3...3 second[s]) to adjacent foes whenever you use a touch skill. You are immune to disease condition. For each rank of Soul Reaping your touch skills cost 4% less energy. At Soul Reaping 4 or more you gain +1...3...3 armor and move 2...4...5% faster for each touch skill you have equiped.

Vampiric Touch/Vampiric Bite 15 ¾ 3 Touch skill. Steals 30...66...75 health from target foe.

Touch of Agony 10% 1 ¾ 3 Touch skill. Deals 20...52...60 shadow damage to target foe and foes adjacent to target foe.

Wallow's Bite 10% 1 ¾ 3 Touch skill. Deals 20...52...60 shadow damage and inflicts cripple condition (1...4...5 second[s]) to target foe.

Enfeebling Touch 5 ¾ 5 Touch skill. Deals 10...50...60 shadow damage and inflicts weakness condition (5...17...20 seconds) to target foe and foes adjacent to target foe.

Vile Touch 10% 1 ¾ 3 Touch skill. Deals 20...52...60 shadow damage to target foe. Gain 1...4...5 energy if target foe is suffering from a condition. No effect unless Soul Reaping is 4 or more.

Life Transfer 5 1 20 Elite Hex spell (6...13...15 seconds). Also hexes foes near target foe. Causes -3...7...8 health degeneration. You gain +3...7...8 health regeneration for each hexed foe.

Signet of Agony ¾ 15 Signet (10 seconds). Reduces the health sacrifice of your next 1...3...4 spell[s] by 50%.

Signet of Sorrow 2 30 Signet. The next time your health would drop below 0 you are healed for 50...170...200 instead. If your health drops below 0 due to health sacrifice this skill recharges instantly. Activates 50% faster if you are near a corpse.

• Debuff

Next to Death Magic's Minion spells, the spells in Curses see the most play out of the Necromancer skills. An issue I do have is that a lot of them basically do the same thing, but in a different way, or do it worse. This is something I want to change by having some of the hexes in Curses do a different thing, and by focusing certain hexes to be more specialized in single target control, while others are specialized in crowd control. The overal theme still remains to weaken the opponent by reducing the effectiveness of their abilities, rather than punishing their actions or shutting them down entirely like the Mesmer, and apply pressure while they linger.

Atrophy 10 1 15 Hex spell (10 seconds). Reduces target foe's attributes by 0...2...2.

Malaise 10 1½ 20 Hex spell (3...13...15 seconds). Reduces target foe's maximum energy by 30%.

Weaken Armor 5 1 5 Spell. Inflicts cracked armor condition (5...17...20 seconds) to target foe and foes near target foe.

• Punishment

As for the hex spells that punish actions, I moved Spoil Victor and Soul Leech to Curses, as their effects fit this attribute's playstyle much better. Insidious Parasite received a small change to make it a bit more playable, having its life steal be on each attack instead of each hit. To punish the use of shouts and chants, I took a more creative solution for Cacophony. Instead of punishing the user of that shout or chant, it damages all foes within earshot. The idea behind it is that the target makes such a horrible sound, it damages the hearing of its allies and makes their ears bleed. As a skill, it will put a large amount of pressure on the allies of the hexes foe if that foe will keep using shouts and chants.

Spoil Victor 10 1 10 Elite Hex spell (3...13...15 seconds). Causes 25...85...100 health loss whenever target foe attacks or casts spells on a creature with less health.

• Disruption

While Curses is primarily focused on applying debuffs, I do want to want to give the Necromancer some tools to be able to disrupt the opponent. However, unlike the Mesmer's disruption spells, these spells do not reward a successful disruption with damage or energy, but to keep up the pressure, inflict conditions instead. Combining disruption with damage and energy management is something that has proven itself to be incredibly power in this game, so much so that it is something that actually could use a nerf, and while I do want to give the Necromancer the ability to interrupt, it is this combination I do not want to add more skills to. Especially since they would outplay the debuff and punishment hexes in Curses. When designing these skills, I did try to find a balance between the debuff skills and the disruption skills.

• Enchantment Removal

An issue I mentioned for the hex spells in Curses is that they basically do the same thing, but in a different way, or do it worse. This issue also applies to the Necromancer's enchantment removal. The Necromancer has so many enchantment hatred, that they are needlessly competing with eachother. This is the main reason why I changed the functions of Well of the Profane, Jaundiced Gaze and Gaze of Contempt. To solve this issue I aim to reduce the number of enchantment removals the Necromancer has and to diversify them a bit better from eachother, so each fulfils different purposes. Rip Enchantment is the best enchantment removal the Necromancer has when it comes to single target enchantment removal, however to let it not compete with the other enchantment removal spells in Curses, I advice to move it over to Death Magic. Envenom Enchantments has been changed into an AoE enchantment removal, and Corrupt Enchantment functions as an elite version of Envenom Enchantments. This gives the Necromancer the option to counter party-wide enchantments. As an elite spell to remove multiple enchantments from a single target, Pain of Disenchantment has been changed into an elite version of Rend Enchantments, removing an equal number of enchantments from the target.

• Disease DPS

The Necromancer was introduces with the ability to inflict a condition unique to its profession, disease. Disease has mostly been associated with Death Magic, but due to the superiority of the Minion Master builds, the condition never sees much use, or is actively sought out to inflict. The same goes for many offensive spells in Death Magic. You rarely see a Minion Master combine its minion spells with the offensive spells of Death Magic, save for Discord build. They would rather combine it support skills, making use of their secondary profession skills. To have the disease condition and the spells in Death Magic see play, I reworked many of them to have bonus effects when they target a diseased foe. The idea is to give the Necromancer access to a disease based pressure damage build, that deals a decent amount of initial damage, and continuously inflicts multiple conditions that cause health degeneration to apply a high amount of pressure on the targeted foe and can spread that pressure to multiple foes. While it is still reliant on fleshy foes for its effectiveness, this gives Death Magic a new and hopefully effective build that is not the Minion Master.

• Minion Master PvE Only

Talking about the Minion Master, while it is one of the most played builds in PvE, it usually amounts to nothing more than summoning a wall of minions that you take the hits for you and deal some damage. No tactics or strategy is ever applied with them and there is no real depth in the way a Minion Master build is played. To add more depth to this build, I gave each minions a different additional effect so each can fit a different purpose in what type of Minion Master build you want to play. For a defensive build you have Bone Horror. Bone Minions fits the most for a minion bomber build. Bone Fiend and Vampiric Horror work well for offensive minion builds. Shambling Horror is a minion that works as an all-purpose minion, fitting in with any of the former minion builds. The Minion Master elite skills also have been updated to let you specialize in these types of builds and have them function much better.

Foes attacking Bone Horror suffer from weakness condition (3...13...15 seconds). Whenever a foe hexed with your Death Magic spells dies you lose 2 energy. No effect on non-fleshy foes.

• Minion Master PvP Only

Unlike PvE, the minion spells rarely see play in PvP due to a lack of exploitable corpses and that the builds are not very pro-active to play. To have these spells see play in PvP, I made PvP version of them that summon a limited amount of minions, but does not require you to exploit a corpse. Several of the support skills have been changed to fit the PvP Minion Master builds, and fit PvP better in general.

• Soul Reaping Utility

Like many skills the primary attributes of other professions, Soul Reaping skills are mainly utility skills. I have been swapping around multiple Necromancer skills, both elite and non-elite, and some skills have been moved to Soul Reaping as I believe they fit the attribute better and will see more play in Soul Reaping.

What I do want to mention specifically is Soul Feast. The Necromancer has always lacked a good unconditional self heal. While Blood Renewal served that purpose, its health sacrifice cost means that at low health, you can easily kill yourself with it and that the health you gain in return is diminished. Vampiric Gaze is the spell you first learn to heal yourelf with its life steal (hence the changes it received), but it requires you to be in combat. Since minion spells always have the priority whenever you can exploit a corpse, and Consume Corpse is also a skill that fulfills the same role, I decided to make Soul Feast the unconditional self heal for the Necromancer. Rather than exploiting a corpse, it gains a bonus effect when you are near a corpse.

I also want to highlight Reckless Haste. In addition to the unconditional self heal, the Necromancer is also sorely lacking an increase movement speed skill. I found that Reckless Haste is the best candidate to fill this role. While it sees some play in combination with Weaken Knees, I believe Weakne Knees serves better as a snare, and not a hex that punishes movement.

The next thing I want to highlight is the condition removal skills. I decided to move Plague Sending and Plague Signet to Soul Reaping. Soul Reaping already has Foul Feast, and moving these 2 skills to Soul Reaping allows the Necromancer to play these skills in any type of build they play. Now they have to specifically invest points into Curses to make use of these skills when they want to play a different build where they might fit in better.

The last skill I want to talk about is the Necromancer's No Attribute elite skill Grenth's Balance. Ever since Weaken Knees' first skill update, the Necromancer lost its ability to knock down foes. Since Grenth's Balance is one of the Necromancer's monster underperforming elite skills, I decided to add a knock down to it and give back the Necromancer's ability to knock down foes.

Wail of Doom 10% 1 ¼ 15 Elite Hex spell (1...3...4 second[s]). Target foe's attributes are 0.

Reaper's Mark 5 1 15 Elite Hex spell (30 seconds). Causes -1...4...5 health degeneration to target foe. Gain 5...13...15 energy when target foe dies. Your necromancer spells targeting this foe cast 25...45...50% faster.

Signet of Lost Souls ¼ 8 Signet. You gain 10...82...100 health and 1...8...10 energy if target foe is below 50% health.

• Soul Taker Melee

The last build I want to talk about is the PvE-only Soul Taker build. While it allows the Necromancer to deal alot of battle damage with the scythe it goes with, especially when combined with Dark Aura, the main problem is that you are a squishy character in melee that is effectively killing themselves to kill an enemy. Taste of Pain has been updated to mitigate the health sacrifice and make the Necromancer more resilient. Withering Aura adds an additional layer of protection and acts in a similar way to the Dervish's Armor of Sanctity. Soul Taker itself has gained an attack speed increase to mitigate the scythe's slow attack speed and have the build it wants to play function better. The update to Reckless Haste allows you to move into combat much easier and catch kiting foes. Plague Touch being in No Attribute gives this build a readily accessible condition removal. These changes are made with the intention to make the Necromancer a functional melee combatant that can actually stay in a melee for a prolonged period.

Soul Taker 5 1 15 Elite Enchantment spell (3...25...30 seconds.) You attack 33% faster and your attacks deal +15...19...20 damage and sacrifice 15...19...20 health. PvE Skill

Dark Aura 10 1 10 Enchantment spell (30 seconds.) Deals 5...41...50 damage to adjacent foes whenever target ally sacrifices Health. Damage cost: you lose 5...17...20 Health.

Withering Aura 10 ¾ 15 Enchantment spell (30 seconds). Inflicts weakness condition (2...8...10 seconds) to adjacent foes whenever you attack or cast a spell. You take 0...20...25% less damage from foes suffering from a condition.

What does the Elementalist want to do and what is its role your team

After having played this game for a long time, I have always enjoyed the Elementalist and its concept of a mage that controls the elements to destroy its enemies. It is obvious that by design the Elementalist is heavily focused to be a team's mid-range damage dealer, designed to deal a large amount of damage to a group of enemies. In theory such a role should work just fine in Guild Wars' traditional RPG team setup of Tank/DPS/Healer, or Tank/DPS/Control/Healer in the case for GW, but in practice there simply is little need for a traditional specialized mid-range DPS in this game. Utility and toolbox centric teams, teams that basically cover multiple grounds are favored over the traditional setup in GW, and can deal enough damage to deal with groups as well, which leaves little to no room for an Elementalist that has little utility and toolbox ability within its skills. Then there is also the problem that almost all of the Elementalist's damage is armor respecting damage, which makes it inefficient in its role as DPS in high level PvE where enemies have a high armor rating and a higher level difference, resulting in a low damage output, even with the Elementalist's highest damage spells. The changes I suggest are made are to give the Elementalist builds that will have a place in the teams players play. Some changes have been made to let some of the Elementalist's spells see play that rarely, if ever see play.

Elemental Lord 5 ¼ 20 Enchantment spell (40...56...60 seconds). You gain +1 to your Elemental Attributes. For each rank of Energy Storage, your Elemental spells have +4% armor penetration (no armor penetration at an armor rating of 60 or lower). Each time you cast a spell, you gain 1 energy for every 10 ranks of Energy Storage and are healed for 100...260...300% of the spell's Energy cost. PvE Skill

Over the Limit -1 5 1 20 Elite Enchantment spell. Spells cast 15...19...20% faster, recharge 15...43...50% faster and deal 15...27...30% more elemental damage. Gain 1 overcast whenever you cast a spell. PvE Skill

First to adress the elephant in the room, the lacking damage in high-end PvE. I've been thinking hard how to adress this problem. My initial though was to add armor penetration against enemies with a high armor rating to Energy Storage, similar to Strenght's inherent armor penetration, but for the sake of player vs enemy balance in PvE, I eventualy decided not to. Then I moved on to Elemental Lord and gave Elemental Lord that ability instead. As a PvE only skill that is a staple in almost all Elementalist builds, it is the perfect candidate to adress this problem with. While the wording on it may be a bit weird, its intended function is to have it work in a similar way to cracked armor, lowering the armor of enemies, but capping that reduction when the enemy's armor rating reaches that of 60. At an Energy Storage of 15, it can bring down the armor rating of 120 down to 60, making the level difference the primary balancing factor in high-end PvE. To further improve the damage output for PvE, but at the expense of your elite skill, I added a percentage based damage increase to Over the Limit and have this skill be more rewarding in comparison to its cost. To be able to manage its cost a bit better, I changed its overcast effect from a gradual increase to 1 point of overcast per spell cast. This allows you to maintain it outside of battle and better manage your overcast during battle through. Now with its damage output hopefully fixed, we can focus on optimizing some of the Elementalist's traditional damage builds.

• Lightning Spike

Air Magic is well known for its ability to spike, inflicting cracked armor to the target at the start of the chain, and inflicting a high amount of damage in sequence. The changes I made are to optimize the spike build. Lightning Surge has its damage and its ability to inflict cracked armor changed to an initial effect, allowing you to start your chain with it and setting up cracked armor. Invoke Lightning has its damage increased and has gained the ability to inflict cracked armor. Like Lightning Surge, it is a spell to start your chain with, setting up cracked armor, but also sets up overcast, allowing you to meet bonus effects of spells that require overcast such as Lightning Strike. Lightning Hammer has been changed into a non-elite version of Invoke Lightning, adding overcast to it and hitting more foes, but for less damage. This change also gives it the utility of being a non-elite spell that allows you to meet the bonus conditions of both cracked armor and overcast. Lightning Orb has gained back its ability to inflict cracked armor. I was not a fan of it being nerfed, in order to buff Lightning Hammer. I reverted this change and buffed Lightning Hammer in a different way to have it see play without it being a detrimental change to Lightning Orb.

Lightning Surge 10 1 10 Elite Hex spell (3 seconds). Initial effect: deals 10...82...100 lightning damage and inflicts cracked armor condition (5...17...20 seconds) to target foe. End effect: causes a knock down to target foe. 25% armor penetration.

Mind Shock 5 5 1 8 Elite Spell. Deals 10...42...50 lightning damage. If you have more Energy than target foe, deals +10...42...50 lightning damage and causes knockdown. 25% armor penetration. You are overcast.

Invoke Lightning 5 10 1 6 Elite Spell. Deals 10...82...100 lightning damage to target foe and to two foes near your target and inflicts cracked armor condition (5...17...20 seconds). 25% armor penetration. You are overcast.

Lightning Hammer 5 15 2 10 Spell. Deals 10...82...100 lightning damage to target foe and 5...41...50 lightning damage to two foes near your target and inflicts cracked armor condition (5...17...20 seconds). 25% armor penetration. You are overcast.

Lightning Strike 5 1 5 Hex spell. Deals 5...41...50 lightning damage to target foe. Hex for 3 seconds if you are overcast. End effect: deals 5...41...50 lightning damage. 25% armor penetration.

Lightning Orb 15 2 5 Spell. Projectile. Deals 10...82...100 lightning damage to target foe and inflicts cracked armor condition (5...17...20 seconds). 25% armor penetration.

Shock Arrow 5 1 8 Spell. Rapid projectile. Deals 5...41...50 lightning damage to target foe. Gain 5 Energy plus 1 Energy for every 2 ranks of Energy Storage if you hit a foe suffering from Cracked Armor. 25% armor penetration.

• Lightning DPS

For Air Magic's Lightning DPS build, I made some small changes to a few of its spells to have it apply better pressure through a combination of damage and multiple conditions. Arc Lightning has its damage on its target increased to have its damage output be in line with the other spells in this build. To add some utility to Arc Lighting, I added the effect that it interrupts an action if the target of the spell is attacking, with this change, the bonus effect simply isn't just additional AoE damage, but can potentially interrupt a skill as well of the 2 nearby foes it hits. Like Arc Lightning and for the same reason, Shell Shock also has its damage increased, but as part of its bonus effect instead. Enervating Charge has gained a bonus effect where it hits adjacent. Since Lightning DPS is a build that is focused more on hitting multiple foes, rather than a single target, I decided to give Enervating Charge a buff in this way over a cost reduction to keep it in-theme. Since an Elementalist prefers spells that deal damage, I added damage to Blinding Flash. Now it is more in line with its elite version Blinding Surge, which should make Blinding Flash more appealing to play. Lightning Bolt has seen a change that is designed more more PvP. Instead of dealing more damage against a moving foe, it now cripples a moving foe. While this change sacrifices some damage, it gives Air Magic a very useful tool to snare opponents.

Chain Lightning 5 10 2 6 Spell. Deals 10...70...85 lightning damage to target foe. Also hits two foes near your target. 25% armor penetration.

Arc Lightning 5 1½ 8 Spell. Deals 5...41...50 lightning damage to target foe. Deals 15...71...85 lightning damage to two foes near your target if you are Overcast. Interrupts an action if target foe is attacking. 25% armor penetration.

Shell Shock 5 1 8 Spell. Deals 10...26...30 lightning damage and inflicts cracked armor condition (5...17...20 seconds) to target foe. If Overcast, deals 50% more damage and hits adjacent. 25% armor penetration.

Lightning Bolt 5 1 8 Spell. Rapid projectile. Deals 5...41...50 lightning damage to target foe. Inflicts cripple condition (2...8...10 seconds) if target foe is moving.

Lightning Javelin 5 1 5 Spell. Projectile. Deals 5...41...50 lightning damage to target foe. Interrupts if target foe is attacking. Hits foes between you and target foe. 25% armor penetration.

Enervating Charge 10 1 8 Spell. Deals 10...42...50 lightning damage and inflicts weakness condition (5...17...20 seconds) to target foe. Also hits adjacent foes if target foe is attacking. 25% armor penetration.

Blinding Flash 10 ¾ 6 Spell. Deals 5...41...50 lightning damage and inflicts blind condition (3...7...8 seconds) to target foe. 25% armor penetration.

Thunderclap 5 1 8 Elite Spell. Deals 10...42...50 lightning damage, interrupts and inflicts cracked armor and weakness condition (5...17...20 seconds) to target foe and foes adjacent to target foe. 25% armor penetration.

Blinding Surge 10 ¾ 6 Elite Spell. Deals 5...41...50 lightning damage. Inflicts blind condition (3...7...8 seconds) on target foe and foes adjacent to target foe. 25% armor penetration. If target foe was attacking, also hits foes adjacent to target foe and deals 50% more damage.

Glimmering Mark 10 1 15 Elite Hex spell (10 seconds). Deals 5...21...25 damage each second to target and foes adjacent to target foe. Inflicts blind condition (3 seconds) on foes using attack skills. Ends if you use a skill that targets this foe.

• Ride the Lightning

As a variant of the pressure DPS, I made some changes to Ride the Lightning and Shock to have them work more efficiently at applying damage and pressure to multiple enemies. To make the touch spells in Air Magic easier and safer to play, I removed the overcast from Ride the Lightning when it targets an ally while Energy Storage is at 5 or higher. This allows you to deal damage and retreat from enemies without rapidly accumulating overcast from its use, which is what primarily holds this spell back. Shock has pretty much been overhauled. While it has seen quite a lot of play in PvP Warrior builds, it has rarely seen play in Elementalist builds. Since its 10 overcast goes poorly with the use of Ride the Lightning, I removed that overcast and changed its effect. Now it interrupts and dazes foes for a short period of time, allowing you to disrupt enemy spellcasters and assist your martial team mates in stopping and taking down enemy spellcasters. Since Ride the Lightning is now less punishing to use, it makes it easier to use it as well as Lightning Touch and Shock in combination with your ranged spells. While there are those that might not want to see the knock down of Shock go, Gale is still an option to knock down enemies so that shouldn't be too much of a loss in that regard.

Ride the Lightning 5 10 1 5 Elite Spell. Deals 10...58...70 lightning damage. 25% armor penetration. Blinds all adjacent foes (1...4...5 second[s]). You instantly move to your target. May target allies, but does not cause overcast when you do if Energy Storage if 5 or higher.

Lightning Touch 5 ¾ 10 Touch skill. Deals 10...50...60 lightning damage. Also hits foes adjacent to target foe. Inflicts blind condition (1...3...4 second[s]) and cracked armor condition (1...8...10 second[s]). 25% armor penetration.

Shock 5 ¼ 15 Touch skill. Deals 10...50...60 lightning damage. Also hits foes adjacent to target foe. Interrupts an action and inflicts daze condition (1...3...4 second[s]). 25% armor penetration.

• Whirlwind and Gust

Whirlwind is a decent defensive spells to take the pressure off of you from melee attackers, but blinding these enemies has always been the better options so it sees little to no play as a result. To have it see play I added an overcast bonus that allows you to target allies as well, turning it into a ranged offensive spell that can take the melee pressure off of your allies as well. To further improve its use, primarily in PvP, I added the effect that it can knock down moving foes as well. This allows it to knock down kiting foes, adding utility to this skill. Gust has received a small buff. Being a bar compression elite skill between Whirlwind and Windborne Speed, I changed its cost and recharge and its damage to that of Whirlwind and its duration to that of Windborne Speed. These changes should make this elite skill a bit more attractive to play as it has to rival elite skills like Blinding Surge that are very effective in what they do when it comes to PvP.

Whirlwind 5 ¾ 8 Spell. Deals 15...63...75 cold damage to adjacent foes. Attacking or moving foes are knocked down. May target allies if you are overcast.

Gust 5 ¾ 8 Elite Enchantment spell (5...11...13 seconds). You and target ally move 33% faster. Initial effect: Deals 15...63...75 cold damage to foes near you and target ally. Attacking or moving foes are knocked down.

Windborne Speed 10 ¾ 5 Enchantment spell (5...11...13 seconds). Target ally moves 33% faster.

• Earth DPS

For Earth Magic's DPS build, I made some changes that allows you to better combine its damage spells with its defensive spells and allow for builds that mix offense with defense. I added the ability to inflict weakness to Obsidian Flame and reduced its damage. This gives the players an additional spell to meet the bonus effects of Stoning and Glowstone and have Obsidian Flame fit better in this type of build and not have this build rely on just Ebon Hawk. With this change, it also makes it easier for this build to play more defensive skills like Magnetic Surge and Magnetic Aura, since Obsidian Flame meets their overcast bonus effect. Armor of Earth has gained an overcast bonus effect that removes its drawback to make the skill easier to use, and having it fit in this build. Its activation time has been increased and its duration time reduced as compensation. Stone Sheath's armor increase now matches that of Armor of Earth, having it function as an elite version of Armor of Earth. To make Earthquake a bit easier to play and have it fit in a bit better with these builds, I reduced its activation time.

Obsidian Flame 5 5 1½ 5 Spell. Deals 22...78...92 damage and inflicts weakness condition (5...17...20 seconds) to target foe. You are overcast.

Ebon Hawk 10 1 5 Spell. Projectile. Deals 10...70...85 earth damage and inflicts weakness condition (5...13...15 seconds) to target foe.

Stoning 15 1 5 Spell. Projectile. Deals 45...93...105 earth damage to target foe. Causes a knock down if target foe is suffering from weakness condition.

Glowstone 5 1 8 Spell. Projectile. Deals 5...41...50 earth damage to target foe. You gain 5 Energy plus 1 Energy for every 2 ranks of Energy Storage if target foe is suffering from weakness condition.

Earthquake 10 25 2 15 Spell. Deals 26...85...100 earth damage. Also hits foes near your target. Causes a knock down. You are overcast.

Magnetic Surge 10 1½ 15 Enchantment spell. Deals 15...63...75 damage to target foe. If overcast, allies in earshot block the next attack against them (1...4...5 second[s]).

Magnetic Aura 10 ¼ 12 Enchantment spell (1...4...5 second[s]). You block the next attack against you and reflect 10...42...50 damage to the attacker. Enchants allies in earshot if you are overcast.

Armor of Earth 10 1 15 Enchantment spell (20 seconds). You gain +24...53...60 armor. You move 50...21...14% slower unless you are overcast.

Stone Sheath 10 1 15 Elite Enchantment spell (20 seconds). You and target ally gain +24...53...60 armor and immunity to critical hits. Initial effect: Deals 15...63...75 earth damage and inflicts weakness condition (5...17...20 seconds) to foes near you and target ally.

• Shockwave

The Shockwave build is a very power spike build in Earth Magic, but can hit a bit too hard and too fast. I reduced the damage of Shockwave, and spread the damage out over multiple spells to reduce the speed the Shockwave build deals damage with the intention to make it easier to respond to. Grasping Earth has some moderate damage added to it. Dragon's Stomp no longer acts as a copy of Earthquake, as you never play these 2 spells in the same build due to their overcast, and has been changed into a spell inspired by Giant's Stomp. It now hits foes near you, making it the skill to meet the bonus damage of Aftershock in this build and keeping foes within the range of Shockwave. Since the bonus damage of Aftershock is now easier to meet, and is preceded by a high damage spell, its damage has been reduced.

Grasping Earth 10 ¾ 12 Hex spell (5...17...20 seconds). Nearby foes move 50% slower. Initial effect: deals 15...55...65 earth damage to nearby foes.

Shockwave 10 ¾ 15 Elite Spell. Foes in the area take 10...42...50 earth damage and are weakened (1...8...10 second[s]). Nearby foes also take +10...42...50 earth damage and have cracked armor (1...8...10 second[s]). Adjacent foes also take +10...42...50 earth damage and are blinded (1...8...10 second[s]).

Dragon's Stomp 10 25 ¾ 15 Spell. Deals 26...85...100 earth damage and causes a knock down to nearby foes. You are overcast.

Aftershock 10 ¾ 10 Spell. Deals 15...71...85 earth damage to nearby foes. Deals 15...55...65 more earth damage to knocked down foes.

Crystal Wave 15 ¾ 10 Spell. Deals 10...58...70 damage to nearby foes. Those foes lose all conditions and take 5...13...15 damage for each condition removed.

• Warder

To have Stone Daggers see play, I changed Ward of Weakness into a skill that inflicts area of effect earth damage in addition to inflicting weakness and have its effects applied on allies casting Elemental spells instead of enemies being hit with elemental damage. This way the caster and the mid-range of the party can stay at a distance while benefiting from this ward's effect, instead of trying to place the ward at the location of the enemy and trying to keep them inside the ward. With Ward of Weakness triggering its effect each time a foe is hit, Stone Dagger's ability to hit twice should gives this build excellent AoE pressure damage. Also to meet the bonus effect of Stone Daggers, I added an overcast to Ward of Weakness. These changes should significantly improve the playability of both these spells. Since the build takes only 2 spells to work, it can be complimented with the other ward spells to support your party.

Stone Daggers 5 1 Spell. Two projectiles. Deals 8...28...33 earth damage each to target foe. Inflicts bleeding condition (1...4...5 second[s]) if you are overcast.

Ward of Weakness 5 15 1 10 Ward spell (8...18...20 seconds). Whenever allies inside this ward at the location of target ally target a foe with an Elemental spell, that spell deals 5...21...25 earth damage and inflicts weakness condition (5...17...20 seconds) to the foe it hits and foes adjacent to that foe.

Ward Against Elements 15 1 20 Ward spell (8...18...20 seconds). Allies inside this ward at the location of target ally gain +24 armor against elemental damage. Spirits are unaffected.

Ward Against Melee 15 1 30 Ward spell (8...18...20 seconds). Allies inside this ward at the location of target ally have 50% chance to block melee attacks. Spirits are unaffected.

Ward Against Foes 15 1 30 Ward spell (8...18...20 seconds). Foes inside this ward at the location of target ally move 50% slower.

Ward of Stability 10 1 30 Ward spell (8...18...20 seconds). Allies inside this ward at the location of target ally cannot be knocked down. Spirits are unaffected.

Kinetic Armor 15 2 30 Enchantment spell (8 seconds). Gain +20...68...80 armor. Renewal bonus: cast a spell.

• Earth Nuke

The new ability of Ward of Weakness also compliments Earth Magic's damage over time spells, significantly increasing their damage output over multiple foes. To have this build work a bit better, Sandstorm as gained the ability to cripple enemies, to it can keep them within the range of your spells. These spells usually don't see much play in this type of build because Fire Magic does it better, especially with Meteor Shower and Savannah Heat. While they can be played as a dedicated nuke build, they compliment a Stone Daggers based build better with the new effect of Ward of Weakness and go for an offensive build with the damage over time spells, instead of a defense build with the ward spells.

Churning Earth 15 2 30 Spell. Deals 10...34...40 earth damage each seconds (5 seconds) to target foe and foes near the initial location of target foe. Causes a knock down to foes moving faster than normal.

Eruption 25 2 30 Spell. Deals 10...34...40 earth damage and inflict blind condition (10 seconds) each second (5 seconds) to target foe and foes near the initial location of target foe.

Unsteady Ground 10 2 15 Elite Spell. Deals 10...34...40 earth damage each second (5 seconds) to target foe and foes near the initial location of target foe. Causes a knock down to attacking foes.

Sandstorm 15 2 25 Elite Spell. Deals 10...26...30 earth damage and inflicts cripple condition (5 seconds) each second (10 seconds) to target foe and foes near the initial location of target foe. Deals +10...26...30 earth damage to attacking foes.

Earthen Shackles 10 1 15 Hex spell (3 seconds). Target foe and foes near target move 90% slower. End effect: inflicts weakness condition (5...17...20 seconds).

• Fire DPS

Fire Magic is knows for its AoE DPS build, being able to continuously cast high damage AoE spells, with the correct energy management. Liquid Flame has its AoE damage made unconditional and Phoenix has its bonus effect changed to inflict burning, so it is more in line with the attribute it is in and to optimize this build.

Mind Burn 5 5 1 5 Elite Spell. Deals 15...51...60 fire damage to target foe and foes adjacent to target foe. If you have more Energy that target foe, deals +15...51...60 fire damage and inflicts burning condition (1...8...10 second[s]). You are overcast.

Fireball 10 1½ 7 Spell. Projectile. Deals 7...91...112 fire damage to target foe and foes adjacent to target foe.

Liquid Flame 10 1 15 Spell. Deals 7...91...112 fire damage to target foe and nearby foes.

Rodgort's Invocation 25 2 8 Spell. Deals 15...99...120 fire damage and inflicts burning condition (1...3...3 second[s]) to target foe and foes near target foe.

Incendiary Bonds 5 10 1 7 Hex spell (3 seconds). End effect: deals 20...68...80 fire damage and inflicts burning condition (1...3...3 second[s]) to target foe and foes near target foe. Also triggers if foe dies. You are overcast.

Phoenix 10 1½ 7 Spell. Projectile. Deals 10...50...60 fire damage to target foe and nearby foes. Inflicts burning condition (1...3...3 second[s]) if you are overcast.

Meteor 10 5 2 30 Spell. Deals 7...91...112 fire damage and causes a knock down to target foe and foes adjacent to target foe. You are overcast.

• Heat Nuke

Fire Magic's classic Damage over Time build to nuke a group of enemies. Meteor Shower has its activation time and recharge time reduced to make it more playable with this type of build and helps to keep enemies in place of your spells and prevent them from dispersing to maximize your damage output. Enemies running out of the damage area has always been the biggest weakness of this build. Lava Font has been changed from a point blank spell to a ranged spell amd its recharge time has been balanced accordingly. While it is designed to break aggro away from you by applying damage over time around you, it rarely sees use in such a way considering the ranged spells achieve the same objective and have the added benefit of being ranged.

Meteor Shower 10 25 3 30 Spell. Deals 7...91...112 fire damage and causes a knock down to target foe and foes adjacent to target foe every 3 seconds (9 seconds) at the initial location of target foe. You are overcast.

Fire Storm 10 2 20 Spell. Deals 5...29...35 fire damage each second (10 seconds) to target foe and foes adjacent to target foe at the initial location of target foe.

Searing Heat 15 2 25 Spell. Deals 10...34...40 fire damage each second (5 seconds) to target foe and foes near the initial location of target foe. End effect: inflicts burning condition (3 seconds).

• Star Burster

For the Star Burster build I changed most of its spells from point blank spells to a touch spells to differentiate its damage range from the Shockwave build a bit more and to make the build work better with the shorter recharge time of these spells. Flame Burst has been given a shadow step to immediately get into the range of the enemy. Breath of Fire has been changed to a touch spell given it's history as a skill with Lava Font taking its place as a ranged Damage over Time spell. With Flame Burst allowing you to move into groups quickly and Flame Djinn's Haste IMS, having a Star Burster build's spells be touch spells should make this build function much better and more appealing to play.

Flame Burst 15 ¼ 20 Touch Spell. Deals 15...99...120 fire damage to target foe and foes near target foe. You instantly move to your target if Energy Storage is 5 or higher.

Flame Djinn's Haste 10 ¾ 20 Enchantment spell (8...13...14 seconds). You move 25% faster. Initial effect: deals 15...99...120 fire damage to nearby foes. Recharges 50% faster if you damage a foe with this spell.

Star Burst 5 ¾ 7 Elite Touch Spell. Deals 7...91...112 fire damage and inflicts burning condition (1...3...4 second[s]) to target foe and all foes in the area of target foe. Gain 2 energy for each foe struck.

Inferno 10 ¾ 7 Touch Spell. Deals 15...99...120 fire damage to target foe and foes near target foe.

Breath of Fire 5 10 ¾ 7 Touch Spell. Deals 7...91...112 fire damage and inflicts burning condition (1...3...3 second[s]) to target foe and foes near target foe.

• Burn Pressure

To give Flare a build to function in, I changed Smoldering Embers into a hex that spreads burning and inflict AoE damage when you target a burning foe. This in combination with Mark or Rodgort and Flare's spammability creates a build that continuously deals a moderate amount of AoE fire damage and upkeeps burning over a large group of enemies, dealing significant pressure damage over time. Smoldering Embers has been given an overcast to meet the condition of Flare. To inflict AoE burning without relying on an elite skill or Mark of Rodgort, I changed Lava Arrows into a spell that inflicts burning instead of dealing fire damage. I made this change also in part to differentiate it more from Flare so those 2 spells don't compete in the same slot as a cheap and spammable damage spell, but can compliment eachother in the same build.

Smoldering Embers 5 15 1 7 Hex spell (10...30...35 seconds). Also hexes foes near target foe. If you inflict burning condition to these hexed foes, adjacent foes also suffer from burning condition for the same duration. Deals 5...21...25 fire damage to adjacent foes if you target these hexed foes with an Elemental spell while they are suffering from burning condition. You are overcast.

Mark of Rodgort 15 1 15 Hex spell (10...30...35 seconds). Also hexes foes near target foe. Inflicts burning condition (1...3...4 second[s]) when these foes take fire damage

Flare 5 1 Spell. Projectile. Deals 20...56...65 fire damage. Hits adjacent if you are overcast.

Lava Arrows 5 1 2 Spell. Projectile. Also hits 2 foes near target foe. Inflicts burning condition (1...4...5 second[s]).

Immolate 10 1 5 Spell. Deals 20...64...75 fire damage and inflicts burning condition (1...3...3 second[s]) to target foe.

Double Dragon 10 1 20 Elite Enchantment spell (8 seconds). Enchants you and target ally. Deals 5...25...30 fire damage each second to adjacent foes. Skills that target a foe also inflict burning condition (0...2...3 second[s]).

Glyph of Immolation 5 1 10 Glyph (15 seconds). Your next 1...3...4 spell[s] that target[s] a foe also inflict[s] burning condition (1...3...4 second[s]).

• Searing Flames Nuke

Smoldering Embers also compliments the Searing Flames build, increasing its damage output

Searing Flames 15 1 2 Elite Spell. Inflicts burning condition (1...6...7 second[s]) to target foe and foes near target foe if they are not suffering from burning condition. Deals 10...82...100 fire damage to foes suffering from burning condition.

Glowing Gaze 5 1 8 Spell. Deals 5...41...50 fire damage. You gain 5 Energy plus 1 Energy for every 2 ranks of Energy Storage if target foe is Burning.

Mark of Rodgort 15 1 15 Hex spell (10...30...35 seconds). Also hexes foes near target foe. Inflicts burning condition (1...3...4 second[s]) when these foes take fire damage

Smoldering Embers 5 15 1 7 Hex spell (10...30...35 seconds). Also hexes foes near target foe. If you inflict burning condition to these hexed foes, adjacent foes also suffer from burning condition for the same duration. Deals 5...21...25 fire damage to adjacent foes if you target these hexed foes with an Elemental spell while they are suffering from burning condition. You are overcast.

Glyph of Immolation 5 1 10 Glyph (15 seconds). Your next 1...3...4 spell[s] that target[s] a foe also inflict[s] burning condition (1...3...4 second[s]).

• Water Crowd Control

Water Magic is the attribute where I changed to role the Elementalist can play in a team and focused the design of its spells heavily on crowd control through reducing the rate at which enemies can move, hit with attacks, and activate skills, while changing a few spells to compliment these abilites to improve the effectiveness of Water Magic's crowd control abilities. In total, Water Magic now offers a movement speed reduction, attack speed reduction, attack hit rate reduction, spell and signet activation time increase, interruption for attacks, spells and signets, and knock down against attacking and moving foes. These abilities allows the Elementalist to play a role similar in a team as a Curse Necromancer, while complimenting your team's Mesmers.

Mind Freeze 5 5 1 5 Elite Hex spell. Deals 10...50...60 cold damage. If you have more Energy than target foe, deals +10...50...60 more cold damage and causes 90% slower movement (1...4...5 second[s]). You are overcast.

Ice Prison 10 1½ 30 Hex spell (8...18...20 seconds). Target foe moves 66% slower and suffers -1...4...5 health degeneration.

Icy Shackles 10 1½ 30 Elite Hex Spell (8...18...20 seconds). Target foe and foes adjacent to target foe move and attack 66% slower and suffer -1...4...5 health degeneration.

Deep Freeze 15 1½ 15 Hex spell (5...9...10 seconds). Target foe and foes near target foe move 66% slower. Initial effect: deals 10...70...85 cold damage.

Blurred Vision 10 1 12 (4...9...10 seconds). Target foe and foes adjacent to target foe have 50% chance to miss attacks.

• Water Support

A part of Water Magic has been changed to party support and I changed some more spells to fit in this type of build. For the type of support, I focused on giving allies/party members protection through armor increase and healing through health regeneration. To have Ice Spear see play and have it fit into this build, I gave Mist Form an additional effect that gives nearby allies the health regeneration you receive. With this, each time you receive Ice Spear's bonus effect while enchanted with Mist Form, nearby allies will also be healed. To meet that bonus effect, Swirling Aura has gained an overcast and its effect has been buffed, removing its overcast bonus effect and making it unconditional instead. Mist Form's intended function is that as long as you have health regeneration, nearby allies will receive the health regeneration you have as long as they are within your range. Armor of Frost and Frigid Armor have gained an overcast bonus effect instead that allows you to target allies and have their effects changed to compliment a support build. Frozen Burst, like Flame Burst, gained the ability to shadow step, but Frozen Burst shadows steps to an ally instead and heals instead of inflicting damage. It retained its hex effect, making it a great tool to escape from a melee and keeping your enemies at a distance. Being able to shadow step to allies also makes it easier to place defense wards at the location of your allies. To improve the use of Ward Against Harm vs Mist Form, I reduced its activation time and recharge time and gave it an additional healing effect, but gave it an overcast. This change allows you to place this ward much easier and more occasionally, if you are willing to stack your overcast.

Mist Form 5 1 20 Elite Enchantment spell (10...38...45 seconds). Take 33% less damage from foes hexed with Water Magic. Heals non-Spirit allies in earshot for 50...210...250% of the energy cost of your Elemental spells. Whenever you gain health regeneration, nearby allies gain the same amount of health regeneration.

Ice Spear 5 1 Enchantment spell. Projectile. Inflicts 10...50...60 cold damage. Gain +1...3...4 health regeneration (5 seconds) if you are overcast.

Swirling Aura 10 10 1½ 25 Enchantment spell (5...11...12 seconds). Party members gain +1...5...6 health regeneration and have 50% chance to block attacks. You are overcast.

Armor of Frost 10 ¼ 15 Enchantment spell (8 seconds). You gain +2...7...8 health regeneration and gain +10...34...40 armor. May target allies if you are overcast.

Frigid Armor 10 1 20 Enchantment spell (10...22...25 seconds). You take 1...12...15 less damage from foes hexed with Water Magic and conditions on you end 5...41...50% faster. May target allies if you are overcast.

Frozen Burst 5 ¼ 15 Hex spell (2...5...6 seconds). Nearby foes move 66% slower. Initial effect: you instantly move to target ally, and you and target ally are healed for 20...68...80.

Ward Against Harm 5 15 1 10 Elite Ward spell (5...13...15 seconds). Allies inside this ward at the location of target ally have +1...3...3 health regeneration, are healed for 15...27...30 whenever they attack or activate a skill, gain + 12...22...24 armor and + 24...43...48 armor against elemental damage. Spirits are unaffected.

• Ice DPS

Even with the changed to Water Magic and have it be focused on crowd control and support, you still want to have some good damage output for Water Magic and be able to play a more damage centric Water Magic build. For this I made some changes to Vapor Blade and Icy Prism. I changed Vapor Blade into a hex spell that increases your elemental damage and removed the overcast from Icy Prism, and but reduced its damage and range and recharge time. The combination of these 2, allows you to deal a significant amount of cold damage to multiple foes. Shatterstone also goes very well in this build for a high DPS. You can also just take Vapor Blade and Icy Prism alone for DPS and mix it with crowd control spells or support spells.

Vapor Blade 5 10 1½ 7 Hex spell (5...17...20 seconds). You deal 10...22...25% more elemental damage to target foe and foes adjacent to target foe. Initial effect: deals 25...85...100 cold damage to target foe. You are overcast.

Icy Prism 10 1 3 Spell. Deals 10...62...75 cold damage. Hits adjacent if target foe is hexed with Water Magic.

Shatterstone 10 2 8 Elite Hex spell (3 seconds). Initial effect: deals 25...85...100 cold damage. End effect: deals 25...85...100 cold damage to target and nearby foes.

Glowing Ice 5 1 8 Spell. Deals 5...41...50 cold damage. You gain 5 Energy plus 1 Energy for every 2 ranks of Energy Storage if target foe is hexed with Water Magic.

• Master of Magic Toolbox

Master of Magic is a fun but very gimmicky elite skill. Although it promotes the use of multiple Elemental attributes, you can't really make a build that performs better than mono elemental builds. Multiple of the spells that also promote the use multiple attributes also don't see much play, simply because it is not efficient to invest your attribute points into an attribute for just a single skill. To give these spells a proper build to function in, I reworked them as a toolbox that synergize with eachother, as well as the spells in the attribute they are in. The Teinai spells have been changed so that each of them sets up the requirements for the bonus effects of the cross-elemental spells, in addition to having their cross-elemental bonus effects, to make it much easier to meet the bonus effects in this build. In total the Master of Magic toolbox builds allows the Elementalist to inflict a multitude of conditions (burning, weakness, cracked armor, cripple, bleeding and blind) and can cause a significant amount of health degeneration to multiple enemies to pressure enemies, and gives the Elementalist access to stance and enchantment removal.

Master of Magic 5 1 10 Elite Enchantment spell (1...49...61 seconds). Your Elemental Attributes are set to 8...13...14 and return 30% of their Energy cost.

Teinai's Wind 5 ¼ 12 Spell. Inflicts cracked armor condition (5...17...20 seconds) to target foe and foes adjacent to target foe. Interrupts foes suffering from burning condition.

Teinai's Prison 10 1½ 10 Hex spell (2...5...6 seconds). Target foe and foes adjacent to target foe move 66% slower. Causes -5...8...9 health degeneration to foes suffering from cracked armor condition.

Teinai's Heat 10 1 10 Hex spell. Inflicts burning condition (1...6...7 second[s]) to target foe and adjacent foes. Foes suffering from weakness condition attack 33% slower and take 3...9...10 damage each second (10 seconds).

Elemental Flame 10 1 10 Hex spell (10...30...35 seconds). Inflicts burning condition (1...3...3 second[s]) each time target foe is hexed with an Elemental spell. Gain 0...1...1 energy if your Elemental hex spells hit foes suffering from weakness condition.

Ash Blast 5 1½ 15 Spell. Initial effect: Deals 35...59...65 earth damage to target foe and adjacent foes. Removes an enchantments from foes suffering from burning condition. Removal effect: deals 15...39...45 earth damage.

• Improving some elite skills

I changed the following elite skills to have them see some more play. Energy Boon has been changed into a bar compression elite that has the combined effect of an Attunement and Aura of Restoration. The additional energy gain you receive on activation has been removes as it now returns energy whenever you cast an Elemental spell, like the additional energy gain before, the attunement effect is only applied on yourself. The biggest benefit this elite skill now has, is that as a combination of 2 staples in any Elementalist builds, it opens up a slot in the skill bar. Ether Prodigy is one of the worst elite skills the Elementalist has with its 10 points of overcast and removal all enchantments on the Elementalist. To improve it, I removed the overcast and gave it a set duration of 20 seconds vs a recharge time of 30 seconds and added a spell casting time reduction to its effect. Its cost has been increased and its energy regeneration has been reduced to balance it out. I made these changes with the idea in mind as an elite skill that supports builds with fast recharging spells, like Flare and Stone Daggers based builds, allowing you to cast those spells faster and repeatedly. Ether Renewal received a bit of a rebalance. I capped the stacking healing and energy gain it can give at a maximum of 3 enchantments, but as a trade-off, set its duration at 20 seconds so it is easier to use at a lower investment into Energy Storage.

Energy Boon 5 1 20 Elite Enchantment spell (36...55...60 seconds). Maximum Health for you and target ally is increased by 1...3...3 for each point of maximum Energy you and target ally have respectively, also heals for 200...440...500% of the Energy cost each time you or target ally cast a spell. You gain 30% of the Energy cost of any Air, Earth, Fire, and Water Magic skills you use. Initial effect: Both gain 1...10...12 Energy.

Ether Prodigy 10 1 30 Elite Enchantment spell (20 seconds). You gain +1...3...4 energy regeneration. Your spells cast 15...43...50% faster.

Ether Renewal 10 1 30 Elite Enchantment spell (20 seconds). Each time you cast a spell, you gain 1...3...4 energy and 5...17...20 health for each enchantment on you (maximum of 3).

• Condition and hex removal

Something the Elementalist is sorely lacking is the ability to remove conditions and hexes from themselves. To fix this issue, I changed Glyph of Essence into a 2 stock condition removal. To reduce activation time we already have Glyph of Sacrifice, which is arguable the better skill to take if you want to do so in the niche situations it comes up. For hex removal I changed Energy Blast insto a spell that removes a hex from yourself and deals its damage when it removes a hex, and gave it an overcast bonus effect that allows you to target allies as well, giving you hex removal for allies. While it's a good spell to deal armor ignoring damage in a spike, it will be much more valuable as hex removal for an Elementalist who has no lacking options to deal damage.

Glyph of Essence 5 1 5 Glyph (30 seconds). Your next 2 spells remove a condition.

Energy Blast 5 ¾ 8 Spell. Removes a hex from yourself. Removal effect: deals 1...2...2 damage (maximum of 80) to nearby foes for each point of energy you have. May target allies if you are overcast.

• No drawback while overcast

For the following 3 enchantments with a drawback I added the effect that the drawback does not apply while you are overcast. While they have powerful effects, their drawback does hold them back. This change should allow them to see more play for the Elementalist, without making them too good generically.

Storm Djinn's Haste 5 ¼ 10 Enchantment spell (10...22...25 seconds). You move 25% faster. You lose 1 energy each second while moving unless you are overcast.

Burning Speed 10 ¼ Enchantment spell (7 seconds). You move 30...42...45% faster. End effect: inflicts burning condition (3...8...9 seconds) to adjacent foes. You suffer burning condition (7 seconds) unless you are overcast.
