=== Low Armor ===
If you decide to bring your ele as [[Emo (UW)]] then you'll need a specific armor for the Dhuum fight. You want to be the highest priority target for Dhuum, so you want low armor (15AL) and low hp. You can keep your normal headpiece, but in the other armor pieces you want a Superior Rune (-75hp) in each one (attribute doesn't matter) and Radiant insigna. Overall 5x superior runes, 5x radiant insignas.

For pull-throughs at 360 in DoA and Escort in UW, as well as glitching Dhuum you want a low armor set. The lower your armor rating and health, the more attractive you will appear to enemies. Therefore, you want starter armor if you still have it, or 15AL (crafted in Ascalon City, Piken Square, Shing Jea Monastery, or Kamadan) if you don't. Standard runes and insignias will still work, but lower health (5 superior runes) will result in even cleaner pull-throughs and a stabler Dhuum glitch. Damage is not a threat while you are enchanted with Protective Bond, although with lower health degen (notably from Burning Speed) will kill you faster and your healing from Infuse will be less potent.

Since you'll be converting all the damage taken to Earth with Stone Striker, you want 5x Geomancer Insignas. +1+3 Earth headpiece, a Superior vigor rune and 3x Vitae.

As T4 you'll die at Dhuum and you want a specific armor to help you die faster and take less damage from Judgment. Use x5 Pyromancer Insignas and any 5x Superior Runes (-75hp).

Elementalists are most common as Emo in both Domain of Anguish and The Underworld.

Armor Sets

Standard Emo Armor

As Emo you will usually use a +1+3 Energy Storage headpiece, a superior vigor (+50hp) and energy in all other pieces: radiant x5 and attunement x3.

Blessed Emo Armor

Although never strictly required, a Blessed set can be very useful in the Veil in DoA. Not only does it reduce damage taken, which is usually insignificant, but most importantly the reduced damage will trigger prot bond less often. The set consists in +1+3 Energy Storage headpiece and superior vigor as above, but with Blessed insignas instead of Radiant, and optionally even Vitae Runes instead of the Attunement ones, as more health will further reduce the chance of prot triggering.

Low Armor

For pull-throughs at 360 in DoA and Escort in UW, as well as glitching Dhuum you want a low armor set. The lower your armor rating and health, the more attractive you will appear to enemies. Therefore, you want starter armor if you still have it, or 15AL (crafted in Ascalon City, Piken Square, Shing Jea Monastery, or Kamadan) if you don't. Standard runes and insignias will still work, but lower health (5 superior runes) will result in even cleaner pull-throughs and a stabler Dhuum glitch. Damage is not a threat while you are enchanted with Protective Bond, although with lower health degen (notably from Burning Speed) will kill you faster and your healing from Infuse will be less potent.

Weapon Sets

Note that many sets are up to preference, for example you may prefer martial weapon + focus, high energy staff or 40/20/20 prot staff. You may use your high energy staff as your high energy weapon or you can have a dedicated wand/focus.

  • Insightful Staff of Enchanting with "Have Faith" as your main Emo Set or high energy set. Protection Prayers requirement with Holy damage is a nice bonus for attacking Skeletons in UW.
  • Martial Weapon of Enchanting with "I Have the Power" and Protection or Energy storage off-hand as your main Emo Set.
  • 40/20/20 prot: Adept Protection Staff of Enchanting with "Aptitude not Attitude" as your main Emo set or just to cast bonds with 40% HCT. Holy damage is a nice bonus for attacking Skeletons in UW.
  • High Energy focus with +15/-1. Useful when your energy hits 0 to cast immediately ER or under ER without having to wait, but remember to switch back as soon as possible. Do not swap to this set while you are maintaining full bonds.
  • (DoA only) Aegis of Aaaaarrrrrrrgggghhh for tanking in the Veil

Pcons

Elementalists should carry plenty of all Pcons, with the exception of Alcohol, which is never used. Powerstones or Dragon Seals can be used as Emo in DoA if a very important ER is rupted or removed.

Summoning Stones

  • Important: you need to use a stone at Dhuum as Emo in UW. The best stone for this is Turtle (Jadeite) by far, but Devourer (Chitinous) also works.
  • Ghastly stones for damage
  • Throwaway stones for breaking aggro

Titles

Titles are generally not important on elementalists, with the exception of Ebon Vanguard for Ebon Escape.
