EleMes

I was thinking of making a Elementalist/Mesmer, putting points into [COLOR=Red]fire[/COLOR]/[COLOR=White]air[/COLOR] magic to dish out some nice damage, [COLOR=Yellow]energy storage [/COLOR] to Give me enough mana to dish out more, and [COLOR=Purple]inspiration[/COLOR] to steal more mana and keep dishing it out.

is this a good build? ive never played the game yet(amazon didnt send a ticket for BWE ) so im not sure how it would work in pvp or pve.

the WALKING BOMB

build is here

hmm no not that type, more of a long range one, with both fire AND air magic, so i can kill one or many as need be

Try looking through here, you should be able to find something similiar to what you want to do. When you find somethinge interesting, see what you can do to it to make it how you want it to be. Here is a listing of all the different skills.

there are long range fire skills as well

as for being tops in both air and fire you will have to make *shudder* choices because you cant be best in all areas

I agree with Loviatar, choose one or the other if you're gonna keep Inspiration. If you want a pure Elementalist, Fire and Water are good choice sin IMO. I'm considering doing the same thing eventually.

Ok i got my hands on a char builder so here goes

EleMes:

Attributes:
Energy Storage {P} 14(11+3)
Fire Magic 14(10+4)
Inspiration 10

Skills:
Flare
Lava Font
Rodgort's Invocation
Mark of Rodgort
Meteor
Fire Atunnment
Energy Drain
Power Drain

Runes:
Superior Fire Magic
Superior Energy
Superior Vigor

The pyromancers armor is merely chosen to fit the style, can be changed easily. Also I used superior runes unlike most, since this is a more specialized magic user, who avoids getting hit at all costs. (the vigor rune tries to counteract the other runes, so i lose 100hp instead of 150hp) If you have any reccomendations for replacement skills feel free to recommend, Im afraid I may have made a few decisions based on what looked cool, not having played the game (GOD I HATE AMAZON! ).

Ok heres 2 more builds I want to try-the NecroMonk and the WarRan

NecroMonk

Attributes:
Soul Reaping 11(10+1)
Death Magic 11(10+1)
Healing Prayers 11

Skills:
Orison oh Healing
Word of Healing
Healing Breeze
Heal Area
Infuse Conditions
Animate Bone Minions
Ressurect
Light of Dwayna

Runes
Minor Soul Reaping
Minor Death Magic
Superior Vigor

This is a mostly healing char, designed to dwell on death, so i gave him an extra ressurect. This allows him to occasional let one of the other players just die and give him mana when need be, and not need to resurrect each one seperatly. Plus he can summon minions to protect him, and when they die, they give him MORE mana! I also think that the healer being a necro might throw the enemy off guard, since it seems (in essence, it seems to work out real well) to be an unlikely combo.

WarRan

Attributes:
Strength 13(12+1)
Swordsmanship 13(12+1)
Marksmanship 3

Skills
Savagw Slash
Pure Strike
Hamstring
Sever Artery
Gash
Griffon Sweep
Endure Pain
Battle Sweep

Runes:
Minor Strength
Minor Swordsmanship
Superior Vigor

This one is more of a tank/healer protector, since he has ways to keep the enemy close and take a few hits. Also id like to note how Sever Artery and Gash make a nice combo. Also if he cant get to his enemy he can whip out his bow(probably a short bow) so he isnt screwed if he is snared.

These 3 classes seem like they would work VERY well together, NecroMonk healing, WarRan pulling/tanking ( he has a bow and can takethe hits so=good tank) and the EleMes pumping out the damage fast as she can. (hey all three spell out NEW-[COLOR=Red]N[/COLOR]ecroMonk-[COLOR=Red]E[/COLOR]leMes-[COLOR=Red]W[/COLOR]arRan )

Tell me if this herby dubbed N.E.W. group look like a good setup, and thanks in advance for your opinions
