Savannah Heat, Mind Blast or Searing Flames?

What do you use for your nuker and why?

Mind Blast, generally.
Rodgort's Invocation is about as good as it gets, and having infinite energy to do whatever the hell I feel like doing is fun.

i like savanah heat myself but i i bring some type of snare to use with it. i think mindblast is better choice if you dont want to bring a snare otherwise searing flames if you dont wanna think too much

Mind blast... it's good for spamming "finish him" and "you move like a dwarf" too.

I use Savannah Heat as well, which works well in conjunction with a Unsteady Ground/Earthquake earth ele.
Working without a snare, I'd go with Mind Blast.
Searing Flames would be last of the 3 choices. It requires that they are on fire when hit, otherwise you're just adding burning for a few seconds assuming it can burn. Additionally, it burns through energy like there was no tomorrow.

Mind Blast pretty much exclusively since I've gotten high ranks in the PvE titles. Having the energy to power out any PvE skill I feel like is pretty huge.
Searing Flames on occasion, when I really want lots of fire guys, but I haven't run those in a while.
Savannah Heat is essentially trash with the PvE skills available; when I want Heats I can rarely justify spending my elite on one that is only marginally better than the non-elite ones, considering just how much you get out of Searing Flames or Mind Blast in comparison.

Elemental Attunement. Heroes can spam Searing Flames just fine, but they do better when I spam TROGDOR's Mark and Invocation

Mind Blast out of those three for PvE. SF sucks and SH is inferior to AP.

i gotta grab an elite tome to get blast, because i cant justify spending an entire weekend to push my ele through NF. but eventually it will be blast. for now its ele attun. rodgort + amazing utility is the sex.

Mark of rodgort is non-elite.
Unless you're referring to glimmering mark. I hope you're not thinking of using that.

Mind Blast if you're solo
Savannah Heat if you have 2-3+ in NM
Searing Flames if you have 2-3+ in HM or Elite zones

If you have EoTN its real quick just to cap it during Blood Washes Blood.
Trevor The Wave
you can redo Blood Washes blood btw.
I use Dual Attun. I just love using both heats, trogdor, and some other skills with infinite energy.

Ele Att thats the best elite for elementalist

SeraCombi
agree with Lourens and Shyft.....i've found that I like dual-attuning best with (Elite) Elemental attunement and Fire Attunement. Then load up with the standards like Rodgorts, MS, Liquid Flame, whatever....with a fast-casting rod+offhand set preferrably...
...the unlimited energy is nice and the damage is high...

With greater conflagration up and minions, SF/GG is the king of all 3.

#1. Olias as Minion Master
#2. Sousuke as Greater Conflagration (with MoR & GloGaze) Fire Ele
#3. Zhed as Searing Flames (with MoR & GloGaze)
It works well for everything up until GW:EN... then it started to fall short defensively.
As such the only character I STILL use that hero set-up with is my Water Ele (Lon Zi)... who runs Ward Against Harm.
.... Ward Against Harm + Greater Conflagration = Sex..... provided the heroes actually stay IN the ward.
For what it is worth though..... I'd go Searing Flames > Savannah Heat > Mind Blast. AoE > Single Target... and there are no energy issues that cannot be easily solved with Attunement, GoLE and Glowing Gaze on the bar.

i never use SF anymore - you need like 4 other skills on bar with SF to make up for energy/keep burning going lol.
ive been using SH in situations where i either have a human tank or a snare. if a tank gets all the mobs to group around him... SH has devastating results. MB for situations where I know my fire attune will get stripped etc. Ive also been running assasin's promise a lot with meteor shower etc. pretty much 1 shower instantly every time you kill something... its VERY powerful esp when ur party size is limited to 4 or 6...
im also rank 10 in all pve lines so some of those skills influence which elite i choose too...
