User:Rastamon/buildarchive/Build:E/any Chilling gust

This elementalist uses air and water magic to snare, blind and knock down any opponent.

Equipment

 * You should use Radiant insignia's on all armor parts.
 * Use a 20 HSR, energy +5^50 air wand and a 20 HCT, energy +15-1 energy regeneration air magic offhand

Usage

 * Use Air Attunement before the fight.
 * Pick a target, then use Chilling Winds+ Freezing Gust for the hex, cast Arc Lightning and Gust then use Glyph of Lesser Energy and Lightning Orb.
 * Repeat if necesary.

Counters

 * Protective Spirit.
 * Fast hex removal but this is not so hard on this build since Freezing Gust recharges in 5 seconds.
 * Any anti-caster hex( Backfire, Spiteful Spirit).
 * Diversion on Freezing Gust.

Variants

 * Use Inspired Enchantment for enchantment removal (requires Mesmer secondary, invest remaning attribute points into Inspiration magic).
 * Use Aura of Restoration for a self heal instead of Blinding Flash.
 * Use Arcane Echo instead of Arch Lightning for double knock down but watch out for energy if you do this.
