    Hey Muk! My thanks to you. True, these aren't guides. There are guides elsewhere. But I still learn a lot from seeing an experienced player navigating guides like this. Lots of guides are easy to read but a great deal harder to execute. You are putting something in that knowledge gap that I appreciate. So I'm still learning a lot about these classes.
    And to all the people who read and comment on these test drive videos. Thank you all too. I really like your input. I'm almost afraid to watch one of these videos too soon before it generates enough commentary because the comments amplify the original video so well.
    Really, really, really one of my favorite GW2 video projects right now. 👏👏👏

    There's a variant of this boondps build you can do by swapping the earth traitline for Arcane. It's a minor dps loss but you gain strong utility, more boons and less cd on attunements + overloads as well as concentration to help with boon uptime (which may allow for less concentration on gear). You can get the revive-geyser trait on downed people that can help a struggling group, or arcane shielding to protect yourself quite frequently when using elemental elite skills (may also help with not getting overloads interrupted.
    A thing you can do while waiting for an encounter to start, is to charge 1 bullet of each element. This turns your autoattack into 'elemental explosion' - a strong attack that uses up 4 bullets applying a bunch of condis up front. Probably too complicated to work this into a rotation (and maybe even suboptimal) but as an opening shot it can be quite effective. And you're often standing around doing nothing while waiting for everyone to ready up at the start of a fight. Can also try charging it up if there's a longer downtime phase with nothing to attack in an encounter - though may be risky if you end up messing too much with your bullets.

    4:34 Mesmer can do boon extension too. Signet of Inspiration's active is a self boon extension, but that effect becomes 5 targets via the Blurred Inscriptions trait.

  • @Rafocale
    @Rafocale 27 วันที่ผ่านมา +10

    You can precast the earth and fire bullet before the fight thus making all your bullet combos 2-3, also a slight dps increase since using fire 2 gives +5% condi damage (when empowered)

  • @dfg12382
    @dfg12382 27 วันที่ผ่านมา +15

    Just to mention: This build is kind of unique in its function as a backup-healer in a squad that mainly runs a solo healer. Aside from the stabi and aegis shout, the heal shout is AoE and cleanses conditions too and you can always go for a clutch water overload, water elemental or even rebound. I don't think there is any other dps support making this good of a makeshift healer without investing into heal stat.

    • @sasha9796
      @sasha9796 27 วันที่ผ่านมา

      And if you are running the previous version with dagger instead of pistol, you also have insane revive power from arcane traitline for emergencies. Makes it a very good adps to run with less experienced squads, where you might want extra healing or revives. Warhorn 4 helps too

    I'm not seeing any comments about this so I'll save you one:
    Overloads, the thing that Mukluk had show a clip of him making eggs while afk as the skill completed over 2 seconds -> can be interrupted through any hard cc from any enemy or mechanic.
    If it gets interrupted, which it absolutely will whenever it can because it takes a sunset and sunrise to complete, you lose that 6.5 seconds of alacrity at the end.
    If you enter fights, whether it is raids, fractals (please never take it there), strike missions (omg), there can be a lot of cc, and your alac uptime will tank indefinitely because you will not be able to get that big burst of alac from completing the overload.
    Your element swapping benefits from alacrity. So when you don't have alacrity, your ability to swap elements to overload them and give alacrity goes down. Which then becomes a forever uphill battle to give a decent amount of alacrity uptime, especially because any overload you do next can also be interrupted.
    My advice to anyone who plays dps alac tempest, is to take every trait and every utility skill that gives them stability (eye of the storm, aftershock, trait in tempest that gives stability at the start of an overload) instead of the damaging signets and shouts, because once you get that first overload interrupted it is basically game over for high alacrity uptime.
    Be more selfish with personal stability and your party will thank you for having their alacrity uptime not being terrible.

    • @xLeopanther
      @xLeopanther 26 วันที่ผ่านมา +2

      The stability definitely helps, but if you know the encounters it's good to take the dps trait instead. Also if you have a reliable heal that you know will give stab when it matters, you also don't need to take the personal stab trait. It's great to be aware of it and to be taking it in fights where interruptions/cc can happen to you, but you don't have to sacrifice dps for it in fights where stab doesn't matter.
      Personally I like the 'downtime' doing the overloads gives you, as a small breather in the rotation to take a look at the fight and take in the current situation. Maybe at the mechanics going on, or if anyone is downed and needs help. I like that it gives you these little pauses where you can pay more attention at your surroundings.

      I play main hand dagger for a very petty reason.
      I crafted a Legendary Primordus dagger for my ele because "ooh we swap between fire and earth skills all the time and he's my favourite dragon." A few days later pistol came out, instantly replacing dagger in the top condi builds. Needless to say I have a grudge.

  • @DrBrickface
    @DrBrickface 26 วันที่ผ่านมา +5

    I don't know about 'completely ranged'. All of the overloads - dps wise - are essentially melee, which I always found forced me into melee at nearly all times. Not that the class doesn't deal decent ranged damage, but it definitely takes a HUGE hit from not being in melee.

  • @bobiboulon
    @bobiboulon 27 วันที่ผ่านมา +3

    Honnestly, I play it full ritualist, so if I'm in a party that have trouble to stay together, it gives some leeway. Despite that, I sometime am at a higher dps than some people playing pure dps builds, so I'm not worrying too much. I don't like the pistol, but I must admit that it makes very decent condi damage, and at range on top of that.
    Oh, and btw, thank you, seeing you testing it on stream help me better use the pistol. Yeah, I don't like it so I did not try too much with it until then.

  • @Cross_111
    @Cross_111 26 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

    A few pointers if I may 😊
    - frost bow 5 requires a bit of pre-prep; you need to spam the 1 key twice so the target is „incased in ice“ for the cc to work. So if you know you need to cc: equip frost bow beforehand, spam 1 key twice before the cc bar is available, 5 when cc bar comes up (400 breakbar dmg), quick weapon swap button and F2 for water 4 (another 150) & F3 for air 4 (another 150 = 700 break bar dmg). Stay in air for a sec (cast other utility skills) for f3 overload to upkeep alac and then go back to rotation with f1…
    - elite glyph has different elements. Fire does the most dmg (around 2k), water has a strong heal (around you!) and also another cc. (150), air is another cc (150) but on a 15 sec cooldown but as it is a daze its affected by sigil of para.
    - but if you need a looooot of cc look at the tornado elite. Dan has a separate video that shows that you can do more than 700 cc in a short term (activate, 3, 3 sec and 5 & go out) or over 2000! if you have like 15 sec
    Its more useable in fights where you need cc in shorter instances where othercc skills are still on cd (like samarog CM)
    - if you are in fights with one shots you can choose to bring rebound to safe you from wipes (or make dps greeding harder ^^). Examples are sabir, daimos, conj amal., muraaat over., vale guardian (if your healer slips up). Anywhere where your group could be downed fast but you come safe the day with one button
    - signet of earth is the skill that can be switched out in most cases. A good usecase would be arcane wave instead of frost bow (or additional if you need even more cc). Arcane wave is an ammo skill of 2 with 200cc bar dmg each with a short cooldown. You can case arc wave, water 4 and air 4 then the second charge and you are at 700 breakbar dmg in a short duration without sacrificing much dps. Thats more than enough as a dps so i always switch from signet of earth to arc wave if i go into a fight where i need cc. Plus its a dace soooo sigil of para is useable (should not be taken as standard)
    - a good alternative for feel the burn is the glyph of lesser elementals. Good dps plus helps with might generation. Only negative point is that feel the burn can be cast without interrupting other skills but its more dps overall. Meaning you should start with feel the burn and then graduate to the glyph
    - never take signet of fire out. Its far too much dmg to put it away
    - even with full ritu gear (except weapons - those should stay viper) you may find yourself lacking in boon uptime. Take relic of the herald in that case instead of fractals. Gives another 17% boon duration which will eliminate any problems with boon uptime. Remember…if your alac is slipping the group suffers far more in dps decrease than from your relic of the fractals
    - boon radius for alac is 360 so be aware of that. Earth 4 is 600 instead…
    I prefer to use sigil of smoldering and agony over bursting and malice. You cap out on burning and bleeding duration while the other combi does not allow to do that (bith with proper food!). But thats more sort of a preference of mine….

    @user-tp6mt2rb6x 27 วันที่ผ่านมา +3

    To be fair at "13:04" , that day when you tryed Alac Tempest Dps in strikes, someone told you to bring Stab for your group and change ur build just a bit, just like when you say in the Condi alac scourge " bring the proyectile block, Bring the Flesh Golem if you need CC but you will lose a bit of damage, but be usefull", in that encounter you choose to not bring Stability and bring the elemental, but could have taken the " Eye of the storm, wich is a stun break and stability, then change the Elemental for Rebound" then you have 100% chance of Stability for 1 wave with Eye of the Storm then the 2nd wave you have Rebound in case someone fail the jump and not die because you used Rebound.
    In that case, in that day, in that specific Strike " Harvest Temple", you Chose not to bring anything and that is why it was awful, also, the healers were mediocre but that is why you dont trust pugs and bring Stab , bring Rebound.

      13:24 It is kinda interesting to see Muk saying " fire, do some stuff, overload, earth, stuff ,overload, it does not matter what is going around me" and at the background there is a POV of Boneskinner, wich in my opinion is a great example of what happen when a person plays something that is new to him and think he is doing nothing but damage.
      1st = With earth overload you gain reflect aura wich in Boneskinner is great to not take damage from the Ranged monster around the arena, same for "Earth signet + Aftershock", both gives magnetic aura + overload gives magnetic aura to the entire party , so you dont have to worry about ranged monsters for a while and you are helping you party.

    Elementalists have annoying visual problems that other classes (to my knowledge) don't have. The Catalyst energy bar being tiny with no segmentation, and the pistol bullets being either lumped in with every other buff you've picked up, or a tiny floating orb above your head that is near impossible to see. Imagine playing condition quickness Catalyst with pistol *shudders*.
    Catalyst energy bar should either be above the endurance bar like Druid's, with three segments, or should span the F1 - F5 buttons, be thicker, and of course have three segments.
    Pistol should either have a dot above each attunement that lights up if that bullet is active, or four dots above the endurance bar.

    I run something fairly similar with dagger instead of pistol on main hand in open world... Just haven't taken the time to learn the pistol yet (and running celestial right now, although very curious which set would actually give best damage... I only have cel, berserk, and viper to swap between though as I don't have legendary).
    I've been running aftershock instead of the earth signet, but also sometimes swap stuff around to have as many instant casts as I can so I can continue to cast during overload. (as is you can cast feel the burn and your elementals barrage while overloading).

    I used to enjoy Ele and specifically Tempest a lot back in the Core and HoT days, but ever since PoF it somehow just doesn't click with me anymore. There was a brief period when Heal Tempest was kinda good and fun to me, but that didn't last. Being forced to swap elements on a rotation for boon uptime annoys me and the new pistol makes it even worse if you mess up the rotation(as you said in the video).
    Slightly unrelated note: I love how you discover all these little bugs and/or tooltip errors within few minutes of playing a new build. Haven't tracked it, but are they more common on Ele than any other profession?

  • @Kazgrel
    @Kazgrel 27 วันที่ผ่านมา

    Probably a fav build of mine, although I've only used it mostly in open world content. Pistol order of skills matters, even if they just go *bang* "Welcome to America"; as some other comments note, you ideally want to start with a fire and earth bullet pre-stocked before starting any real encounter. Alternatively, dagger main hand is what this build ran before pistol was a thing and it's still viable, even if it's 1-2k behind pistol. Lot easier to play. CC on this build is bad because alac uptime is super tight with this build; fire and earth overload pretty much need to remain on cd for alac to stay up, so a trip to air for pistol 2 and warhorn 4 runs the risk of alac dropping.
    Nowadays I play this build as it's pure dps version and it does fairly well and is a bit more forgiving since you don't have to be as on point (for maintaining alac). Pure dps version also does want to use air for warhorn 5.
    Also your explanation of pistol near the end here is honestly a big reason I'm not a huge fan of it. Even having played the job since launch, I've had moments where I thought I hit a key but it didn't register so now the entire thing is out of wack due to an unused bullet...and it's not helped by the bullet buff indicator being in the mix with boons that are going off screen half the time in raids. Yeah, sure, there's the ones over your head but they can easily blend in with other visual clutter going on. Pistol puts in work, but you as a player have to put in work with it every bit as much. It could benefit from some QoL changes.

    Thats my experience with support tempest. You're locked into a rotation and nothing will kick you out of it. I let my teammates handle CC because it screws the rotation to swap to air in the middle of your rotation in order to put out pitiful amounts of CC and then drop protection, might, and alacrity.
    I tend to always bring wash the pain away for healing even if im playing it as a dps since it lets me support the team if the healer is slacking or we get hit hard.

    so i never had time to check out all this videos yet (and i havent played guildwars for a few months so these build videos werent as interesting to me as your other stuff), are these all viable builds for raiding/cm/strikes/fractals? or is this a video where you "try" things and then figure out that some of them dont work and some of them dont? is there some sort of tierlist or summary youre planning when you tried all the builds you want so players can kinda pick and choose what suits their playstyle and adopt your builds for group content?

      Plus it is Lighting Field that give " Dazing strike" to the Hammer 2 (Finisher leap), if any of the party use a Finisher Leap it will also CC with Dazing Strike.

    I just cannot get into pistol. It feels so slow for some reason, i think the cast times need to be 1/4 second each except Water 2.
    Also please Anet move the bullets to the UI above the endurance bar like Druid or as 4 color bars where the Herald energy is.

    • @CayugaSwift
      @CayugaSwift 27 วันที่ผ่านมา +2

      100% this, I enjoy the pistol but the problem of unintentionally having an extra bullet (or no bullets) loaded when swapping elements I find is typically caused by animation cancelling one of your pistol 2/3 skills by trying to go through the rotation too fast. Changing the cast times for them down to a 1/4 second like you said would make it feel so much better! And for sure, there needs to be a UI implemented for keeping track of our elemental bullets. Would make it so much easier than trying to scan the million icons on your buff bar to see if you got all 3 elemental bullets up and ready to go when overloading :(

    • @CuriousMoth
      @CuriousMoth 27 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      Lots of people feel this way. I actually love the pistol, but if you go onto the official forums you'd think the pistol were the spawn of Beelzebub for all the hate it gets. I do recognise it could have been better implemented though, even if it was as simple as 'your first pistol attack after swapping attunements is empowered'. Ever since End of Dragons, Anet have been prone to putting gimmicks into professions that often feel fiddly to make use of relative to what you get out of them.

      It's more of a passive that was changed and the text wasn't updated, it reduces incoming damage by 10%. The active effect using the old passive is definitely a bug though and should be fixed.

    I play my own version of alac tempest which uses hammer instead, because i really like hammer tempest. Only run 2 pieces of ritualists( wep/necklace) to not drop alac i use Air overload aswell. So rotation is Fire overload > earth overload > air overload. Actually a really fun rotation and does more dmg than pistol for me(skill issue obv)
