help with e/me build

i made a e/me on the last beta and theres so meny diffrent skills to choose from i was wondering what skills are most important to this type of build and if any one have any suggestions on how to build this type of char secondly what other combinations of classes work really well and are easy to build.....

Well if you are doing that build, it depends on what you want to do. If you do a Damaging/Mana steal type, then you want 1-2 mana stealing spells, and then any fire spells you like. If you want to play to the Mesmer side, then use a few from energy storage and/or maybe earth/water spells, and the rest any mesmer spells you like.

Also as for other builds, you should pick what looks cool and if you don't like it, try something else. For instance, i first tryed out a EleMes, like you, but ended up playing a warrior ranger, with only troll ungent from the ranger side. overall just experiment as much as you want, since you wont get any permanent damage no matter what you do.

with elementalists, choose your elite first. Everything else will fall into place afterwards

i've only played in one bwe and it was the last one in march and whats these elite skills you guys talk so much about on here and how far in the game you gotta go to get them lol .....so im new to all this

I had a Ele/Mes-char too. I chose Ele as my primary for the energy, and Mes for the spells. The only Ele-spell I used was flare (in combination with Aura of Restoration). The rest was Mes-spells.

Your question about what skill are "right" for this kind of build is difficult to answer. I think it comes down to what you wanna play: nuker or disrupter. If you wanna blow up things/ppl/monsters, then pick some Ele-spells. If you like to harass Monks/tap energy/frustrate ppl, then get some Mes-spells. IMO there's no "right" skill-sit, cause there are too many possibilities with the build.
