You didn't say what your secondary profession is, but anyhow:
1. Fire is indeed the way to go earlier in the game.
2. Fireball is your friend.
3. Don't fire the first shot in a fight, unless you have to. Let somebody else take aggro first. You're squishy, without great self-heals.
4. Max out your Fire Magic attribute, period, no exceptions. Maybe ONE point off the maximum to give you a lot of points elsewhere, but that's it.
5. There comes a time when Immolate is better than Flare. But it's later in the game than one might think. Immolate's on-fire is 42 points of health reduction; do the arithmetic from there.
6. Fire Attunement and Aura of Restoration are your friends.
7. He who fights and runs away/May live to fight another day.
8. Phoenix is good defense, poor offense, and a lot of fun -- except against enemies who are good at interruption.
9. Lava Font is for defense only.
10. Firestorm is pretty useless.
11. Arcane Echo isn't just for Meteor Shower; it also works well on Fireball, Immolate, and sometimes even Flare.
12. Glyph of Lesser Energy is great for Arcane Echo.
13. If you're Ele/Mo, make room on your skill bar for condition removal.
14. If you're Ele/Me, there are a lot of situations where one or the other stance is really cool to have. But they're all situational.
but before I even start it I would like some feedback on spellcasters or eles in particular. I have stuck with real damagers in gw so far I have A R/W Stuck On THK >_< and a W/N that I just converted from a W/Mo Just beat THK with it
