What Stat(s) Should I Focus On, When I Become Weaver?

[Akisohida.8963]

Right now, on my way up the Elementalist PvE fun, I'm doing Precision/Power/Ferocity in that order.

For awhile, I had upwards of 70% chance to crit (now it's down to mid-50's, even with the best Precision gear I can find), which made up for lower power.

 

I guessing that won't work as Weaver, if I want to use a sword (no toughness means I am squishy as heck!)?

 

Here's my build for PvE so far:

High-DPS Weaver builds you see in Raids and Fractals generally use Berserker gear (Power/Precision/Ferocity), with maybe a touch of something else to hit crit cap.

 

For open world, exploration, or more casual play in general, you can run these for Power damage builds:

* Berserker, same as above

* Marauder (Power/Precision/Ferocity/Vitality) for some more health (about 50% more with full Marauder) at the expense of some crit damage

Or for builds incorporating condition damage, you generally want one of:

* Viper's/Grieving in you're going all-in on damage

* Celestial for balanced stats with good sustain

* Trailblazer for really tanky condi builds
