Conjures are bundle items that Elementalist, Tempest and Weaver can summon. Each bundle comes with effectively two charges, the first one will be placed in your hands and the second one will be placed on the ground by a Ground-Targeted AoE skill.

Picking up the second Conjure will come with a slightly delay due to the animation.

Conjures will be the bane of your life as you begin to realise that everyone in your squad seems to have a claim to your or .

You will come across one Conjure with this build:

You have access to four different attunements when you are playing Elementalist, Tempest or Weaver:

Each attunement gives you a new set of weapon skills with a variety of effects. This effectively gives Elementalist and Tempest access to 20 weapon skills and gives Weaver access to 26 weapon skills.

You can swap between your attunements every 1.5 seconds and you can do this whilst casting a skill. Your previous attunement will go on a 10 second Cooldown. When you have the Weaver Trait Line selected, all your attunements will have a four second Cooldown due to the trait. This is further decreased as attunement Cooldown is affected by Alacrity.

When you have the trait equipped, your will get fully Recharged when you land a critical hit.

When you play with the Weaver Trait Line, you can dual attune. The trait , allows you do have your main attunement as your main hand skills and your previous attunement as your off hand skills. This grants you access to dual attune skills, which are the extra six weapon skills that Weaver has access to when compared to Elementalist or Tempest.

Precasting is a common practice before boss a triggers. Do this by:

• Start in / with your Staff equipped.
• Cast and swap to / mid cast.
• Then equip your Sword and Dagger back.

Sabetha

Mursaat Overseer

Slothasor

Precast before every boss is highly advised. This can be done by starting in / then swapping to / while you’re walking to the boss or while the boss is walking to you.

If you find yourself unable to get good DPS on bosses but able to get good golem DPS, make sure your ground abilities are actually hitting the boss for their full duration. A classic mistake is to use abilities like , , , or other abilities that place something on the ground just when the boss is about to move. If the boss is moving out of your AoEs, you will lose a tonne of damage.

Another common mistake is to waste burst skills like or just as the boss is about to phase, become immune to damage, or otherwise be unaffected by your burst skill. Burst skills are a massive part of your overall damage, so wasting them is very bad.

If the boss is close to phasing and you know you won't get your and in , you can delay your swap to / by a little bit. You can then cast and in / so they tick before boss phases as opposed to not casting them at all.

If you find yourself falling out of the rotation, don't be afraid to reset to / and lose some DPS just to get back on track. It's better to take the hit early on than to continue trying to perform the rotation with abilities out of sync.

In general, you are very squishy and should do your best to avoid all damage. Even having two healers will not help if you get one-shot by most mechanics.

Pay attention to not interrupt your auto attack chains as they're a very big chunk of your total damage. If you're struggling with this in raids due to too many effects then look at the skill icons. The icons are very recognisable!

Precasting is highly advised if you're going to /gg and then run back in before Sabetha spawns. There is no need for a countdown, just cast your as soon as Sabetha spawns. She is Invulnerable for quite a bit at the start so there is plenty of time for you to swap back to your Sword and Dagger set.

Be careful with as it gets you really close to Sabetha which can get you a . Sabetha always targets the closest player with this mechanic. In general, aim to be at max melee range to avoid getting a .

Help with shard clearing, always.

If the boss is tanked between 5 and 6 in the second phase, clearing shards is more important than your DPS simply because you'll do more DPS without any Shards up.

Alternatively, if your tank is special and wants to move to the middle and then to 1, then you're better off letting others clear them, assuming they have ranged capabilities.

Obviously, if you see that no one is clearing them, you can use to get to the shards and clear them, as wiping is worse than your lowered DPS.

Use and to help CC.

Precast if you get a countdown before the boss triggers. If there's no countdown, you can precast as usual since being stuck on Staff isn't exactly that amazing.

Dodge or the Jade Knight's explosion as it applies Slow. If you have Resistance or you know that you'll get instantly cleansed afterwards, then don't need to bother but make sure that you don't die from it.
