The following build is one of the primary builds that I've been using for about a month or so. It has served me well in elite areas such as DoA, Slavers' Exile, and other dungeons. Actually, I did a normal DoA run a couple weeks ago and this build wiped out two huge groups of Margonites in about 7 seconds.
The equipment that I use is as follows:
Adept Tormented Fire Staff of Enchanting
Radient Insignias
Survivor Insignias
Rune of Superior Vigor
Rune of Minor Energy Storage
14pts in Fire Magic
13pts in Energy Storage
You might be able to put in a Rune of Attunement or two if you desire more energy but with 13pts in Energy Storage, I have 85 energy and that's more then enough.
1) Searing Heat
2) Teinai's Heat
3) Meteor Shower
4) Savannah Heat
5) Arcane Echo
6) Mindbender
7) Mark of Rodgot (Or a Resurrection Signet / Deep Freeze)
8) Fire Attunement
Using Arcane echo, you have the choice of echoing Meteor Shower or Savannah Heat. This gives you more AoE damage or twice the knock downs, which is useful in the DoA.
Mindbender, combined with an Adept Staff, gives you 60% faster casting of Metor Shower. Fire Attunement helps manage your energy. I usually have around 40 energy left over after casting all attack spells and by the time your bar is recharged, your energy will be full again.
Mediocre nuker build

And what do you do once the monsters run out of your AoE?
fuzzy_rabbit
85 total energy...
I want to see how long you last trying to arcane echo MS.
85 - 15 (arcane echo) - 25 (MS) - 25 (MS) = 20 energy left
If you bring deep freeze another 25 energy
gg with no BiP

without pics cant remember all skills but e-management? soz but failure - use glowing gaze for e-mang or GolE

Enemies don't stay in the AoE, so all of the skills that deal damage over time like that won't be very useful. And Fire Attunement can only help so much for energy management, not much hope for this build.

This is one of those cookie cutter builds, or variations of it, that has been around since before EOTN came out. After a while, you will remove a couple of AOE spells and put in some energy efficient attack skills. Against a group of interrupters this build can be rendered useless. Glyph of Concentration can help with that.
Tek
Actually, energy management is NOT a problem. You are forgetting to add in the energy that you gain back using Fire Attunement.
And if you're concerned with foes running from the AoE, use Deep Freeze. Energy is not a problem and if it is for you, then I suggest you guys start playing more.

hum, energy will be a problem unless you are sitting between fights, especially if you Echo Meteor shower , if you put in deep freeze youll run out of energy even faster, you sure you dont bring a BiP or Eve as a Hench?
Abt the Aoe thing , in normal mode monster take enough damage before running and a well place AoE will hit 3+ monster what alone makes it worth it IMO, furthermore , since the build span so much aoe , most of the map will be burning, give it a try, in HM i highly doubt this will be usefull since they react AND move faster to dodge aoe.

No, I don't use a BiP or BR or anything. This build does not have energy problems. As I said before, by the time your bar recharges, your energy will be full for a second attack.
And this build works just as well in HM. People, keep in mind that I am talking about attacking groups. You know, when you send in a tank to stand there and take damage.
I started using this build when they nuked Rodgort's Invocation. -_-

If you need more energy, use a high energy set on switch for tose times when you need energy.

@Fuzzy_Rabbit -- Fire Attunement. You're also forgetting regen.

I use Radiant Insignias because I enjoy have 80+ energy. If you guys are so stuck on energy management, then go Dual Attunements.
And I do have a high-energy set. But I take pride in my armor and weapons and I enjoy playing with them. Who wants to be running around with a Collector's wand for an extra 10 or so energy? Not me.
My Ele has close to 550hp with 14pts in Fire and almost 90 energy. This is the way that I prefer to play. I didn't post this build for critique--I already know that it's good. I posted it so you guys could try it out.

I wouldn't use your build simply because it is over kill, also the AoE will cause a lot of scatter which really won't help at all. In other words, inneficient.

If I want pure damage, I would go SF. And 580 -> 640 (Defensive set) is much stronger.

Eh, that's just how I like to play. Oh, try getting a group in Slavers' Exile with any other build besides Echoing Savannah Heat.... not going to happen.
And as for the High Energy Set, I do not like using Wands. I have 127 energy using my HES (High Energy Set) but I prefer using a staff. I'm one of those geeks that actually get into the game. I take on the whole Role Playing aspect of the game and I care about appearance, titles, etc. I do not PvP so I could careless about having the most energy and having 600+ HP. I like playing the roll of a Nuker. 500+ HP with 85 energy doing over 700 damage in 10 seconds is the way to go. Don't get me wrong, though, I do like using Fireball, Liquid Flame, Rodgort's Invocation, etc. But when I'm doing elite areas, I'd much rather nuke the shit out of stuff. xDusT II

Because people in slaver's exile are generally extremely dumb and only know how to run a certain build tailored to generating a certain scenario every time. As soon as the scenario changes, your build becomes utter shit. Covah
You just grabbed all the fire aoe spells and put them in one bar.
And I don't see a res

Outside of groups that do the tank / hold aggro / drop nukes, your build is garbage. This build is decent for wiping out balled up mobs that are focused on the tank every 30 seconds or so.
In general PvE and anywhere else, this build is garbage, and your equipment is baed. ps. GoLE owns. Tek

Would you care to see the screen shots of me and four other people clearing the DoA with HEROS? Oh, and I was using this build and it totaled the Margonites, including Lord Jadoth and all of the Titans. So unless you can prove accomplishments such as these, do not talk shit about builds that I post on here. Take your little Mind Blast builds into the DoA and see what happens.

Lying in your title is bad. Therefore, it must be fixed.

You act like this is a big deal? There have been several hundred players that post on guru regularly that can do this. You're not breaking new ground here, You're not setting a new metagame or anything..
All you're doing is trying to defend yourself and your build from the truth, which is that outside of certain scenarios, your build and equipment is utter shit. Any idiot with the right build can do anything PvE wise in this game, so please keep you "OMG IM SO GUD BEKAUS I CAN H/H DOA SO I MUST PWN DIS GAM3" comments to yourself. It only makes you look like more of a f*cktard.

P.S. If you want to talk about accomplishments, I have God walking amongst mere mortals. And all the statues for my hall of monuments. What do you have?
Moral of the story is: don't try to shittalk other people's accomplishments when you have no idea how qualified they are.

Anyway OP, I think your delusions of grandeur are extremely missplaced. You say you've found an effective build for slow trinity runs at best (holy trinity being tank aggros, nukers nuke, monks heal splash). Why you think a build being somewhat efective in that play format automaticly makes it good for general purpose is beyond me. But just know that I can't take my Obs Flesh Warrior,(which I can prove is quite effective in the elite PvE areas under the right team build) and expect to do well in a balanced team that doesn't rely on a useless stump like your slaver's build does. short recap: builds made with no flexability have no flexability. (gee imagine that) no flexability=not a great build. so, please, for all our sakes, don't confuse a nuker built to support (I'm gon go out on a limb here and quote Tyla) "degenerate" team play as a good all around ele build.

And if you're going to use minor runes, you should be heading for survivability. If not, you might as well go superior runes.
I said it before and I'll say it again -- You have 4 weaponsets for a reason. It does NOT take a rocket scientist to click F1, F2, F3 or F4, or whatever your weaponsets are alligned to.

Your health and energy have no effect on the damage you're doing. High energy set on switch ftw.

Needs more energy management. Request that you switch out GoLE for GoE. Also, for maximum damage, you should utilise either a holy damage or dark damage wand/staff, as no enemy can resist said damage.
