Power Weaver

The Power Weaver is a build that offers high burst damage and good consistent DPS while bringing some utility in the form of sharing conjures like Conjure Fiery Greatsword as well as providing some Vulnerability and some Might through placing and blasting fire fields.

Due to the build lacking any form of boon self-generation as well as being rather squishy, this build heavily relies on the supports for boon uptime to reach its full potential.

The advanced page provides a more complete overview of all the utilities the Elementalist has to offer. Once you can execute the step-by-step rotation provided below without spending too much thought on it and are confident with the utility options provided here, head over and check out the advanced page for some extra information. Feel free to swap to the advanced page early if you feel like you are missing some information on additional (less common) utility skills or trait swaps.

Situational Traits

	Useful for skipping with Superspeed, especially in combination with Executioner Axe Toy or Endless Choya Piñata Tonic .
	If there are no other Weakness source in your party besides yourself. Make sure to adjust your gear accordingly for the loss of Invalid Attribute precision. In many cases, if you have a Soulbeast in your group, Weakness should be covered with their Winter's Bite . Furthermore, you may ask the Soulbeast to bring Wilting Strike for additional Weakness uptime.
	If you need more defence in Thaumanova Reactor Fractal Heat Room.

	Another alternative healing skill affecting allies close to the target you strike.
Offensive
	Use this instead of Arcane Shield once you are comfortable avoiding damage without an extra block skill.
	Use this skill instead of Arcane Blast if you need extra cleave damage at the cost of some target dps. Also useful to generate Might with a fire field.
Defensive
	Another defensive utility skill granting Protection and Stability.
	Strong defence against pulsing damage like the Heat Room in Thaumanova Reactor Fractal .

Rotation / Skill usage

Step-by-Step Rotation

Step 1: Attunement Rotation + Dual Attacks

We will start with the basic rotation of attunements as well as pressing the 3rd skill off-cooldown. As a Weaver, we will be attuned to 2 elements at once with the main one deciding our 1st and 2nd skill, the secondary one deciding our 4th and 5th skill, and the combination deciding our 3rd skill.

We will start the rotation in / .
Then we will swap through /
into /
and back through /
into / and repeat.

We will use 3rd skill off-cooldown in each attunement combination. Make sure to not delay your attunement swap, even if a skill is almost off-cooldown. If you are in the middle of an auto-attack, try to finish it before casting your skill, but do not worry about auto-attack chains until you are more comfortable with the rest of the rotation.

Step 2: Weapon Skills

Next up, we will incorporate more weapon skills, namely Flame Uprising , Ring of Fire and Fire Grab in Fire Attunement as well as Ride the Lightning in Air Attunement .

After swapping to / , use Flame Uprising , followed by Ride the Lightning and Pyro Vortex .
In / , use every skill that is up, then wait for Flame Uprising and finally swap back to / .
Fire Grab will not always be up at the same time. Use it whenever it is up, but do not delay your attunement swaps waiting for its cooldown.

Step 3: Primordial Stance

It is now time to start using Primordial Stance that works in the following way:

This is an instant-cast skill that deals damage every second and inflicts a condition based on your current attunement.
We will want to get as many uses in Fire Attunement as possible.
The first tick happens 1 second after casting it.

So to maximize the damage, we will use 1 charge each time after swapping to / .

Step 4: Glyph of Storms and Fiery Greatsword

Lastly, we will try to improve our burst damage significantly by using Firestorm and Glyph of Storms in Air Attunement at the start of the fight or slightly before the fight starts. They are also great to cast at the beginning of a new phase if they are off-cool down.

Both of these skills can be cast shortly before the fight starts as their effects will persist.
Glyph of Storms will be used in Air Attunement . This skill can also be quite useful in Earth Attunement outside of boss fights to inflict Blinded on multiple enemies.
If a Mistlock Singularity is present, you can cast Conjure Fiery Greatsword there to have another one during the fight. Otherwise, you can cast it before a boss or on the way to the boss as it is also great for mobility. Use Firestorm , then drop it and use Glyph of Storms .

Improving Further

Once you are comfortable with the above steps, you are already doing a large part of the full rotation and will be able to deal great damage.

There will be a few additional things on the advanced page to improve further but if you got here, you already know the most important things and these will have a smaller impact than what you learned so far.

The additional steps are:

Finishing auto-attack chains when possible, Call Lightning in Air Attunement and Searing Slash in Fire Attunement .
Incorporating Arcane Blast into the rotation.
Learning when to use different utility skills for extra DPS depending on hitbox size/phase timings such as Conjure Lightning Hammer .
Learning rotations using Weave Self , these add Water Attunement and Earth Attunement increasing your damage and making your rotation even more fluid.

Step-by-Step Rotation

Heal
	Take it for additional Might from fire fields. It is much less healing than glyph.
	Provides a larger burst heal than Signet of Restoration .
	Another alternative healing skill affecting allies close to the target you strike.
	Passive healing skill, take it if you do not plan to press your healing skill for any reason.
Offensive
	Use this skill instead of Arcane Blast if you need extra cleave damage at the cost of some target dps. Also useful to generate Might with a fire field.
	Must have when phase times are pretty short and it is impossible to get full burst inside Exposed effect or phases are too short.
	Good on larger hitboxes and fast phase times instead of Primordial Stance . Precast that skill everywhere where it is possible for DPS increase.
	Precast it for Renegade for additional cc on encounters like Siax.
Defensive
	Provides three blocks for things like the console in Aetherblade Fractal .
	Another defensive utility skill granting Protection and Stability.
	Strong defence against pulsing damage like the Heat Room in Thaumanova Reactor Fractal .
