So my friend is having issues maintaining the enchantments in this build. I can't for the life of me figure out why, but its getting semi-frustrating. Maybe some of yall can help us out a little bit with either easier to run variants or a reason why he can't maintain them. Hes the ele by the way.

Is he casting OF in range of QZ?

Yea, thats why I'm not understanding. He's even using [[glyph of swiftness]. He's saying that he'll be in the middle of casting one when the other one wheres off.

I bet essence bond isn't triggering. If tank doesn't receive any dmg you don't get energy from it.
I've had this issue with lots of EleMo builds.
Try reducing your Armor level a bit (no shield etc.) and perhaps lowering your inspiration.
You could probably get away with dropping Succor and essence on the ranger & using some more useful skills, as the tank should get lots of E from the stance.
ps EoE kills your drops.

Ok if I understand the OP correctly, then the problem is not what the other posters are trying to fix. The tank should have no trouble with energy, he has mantra of earth and stone striker. Unless he is getting hit with stance removal. As I understand it, he is having trouble with stoneflesh and obs flesh recharging at the same time?
If this is your problem, you need to prioritize. When cast with glyph of swiftness, you only have a couple second window to renew obsidian flesh. Put 4-5(depending on if you face weakness) in air to get 2 spells from glyph. Obsidian flesh always has priority. Most builds that you can tank with just the mantra and stoneflesh won't die instantly if stoneflesh is down for a second. You should still have no problems if you glyph both spells.
Then it is just a matter of casting your other spells while obs flesh and stoneflesh are recharging. You should have at least a 4 second window to renew stoneflesh with 16 earth. QZ is actually a hindrance if you have glyph on your bar, it screws with the recharges too much.
Staying alive skills have first priority, damage always comes second. I think your problem may just be player error on the tank.
@ Simple farmer. Essence bond is obviously for the ranger to get energy, not the ele. Can't believe you didn't know that. Did you actually go look at the PvX link?
Succor is indeed a waste of a slot. The tank never should need the extra energy pip, and with a few points in healing, mending gives better regen.
And yeah, if your tank isn't using a 20% ench mod, he is pretty clueless.

Easy big fella,
I guess I misunderstood the OP. I read "maintaining the enchantments" & interpreted the OP is having issues with, well oh I don't know, maintained enchantments.
Sorry blackknight1337 I won't let it happen again.

That is the thing. He has 16 earth magic, 20% enchant, and GoS. His problem is that when he is renewing say obby flesh, stoneflesh aura will run out. So he can technically keep them all up, but he is having practical issues. That is to say, its not the math, its the actual "doing it". Is there a specific order he should be casting these in. Its rated a great farming build, so I assume it works.
