Anyone have a working build non proc build, or we still stuck on all damage from Mdw/vateshran etc

For PVP?
For PVE it's Azureblight set

Good ole trusty balrogh or bloodspawn with new moon front bar, clever alch back bar, markyn 😂

I’m looking for a magicka or stamina arcanist build that works good myself, but not really seeing anything impressive that I want to dump materials into or grind gear for yet… no more dw/frost staff hybrid builds for me

@Udrath LOL. Agreed. Heck, I'm still rolling with an old Hrothgar + Rallying Cry build. Seen some others out there, but its more of the tanky kill-you-slowly variety which just isn't fun for me. Been toying around with VIcious Death + Deadly Strike + Balorgh where you stay alive and take damage with Sanctum then blow them up, but its not the same level as a typical bomber. The reality is that Arcs just aren't built for high burst damage.

I guess you could try Balo Acuity Wretched style bombing with the laser and Thrive in Chaos.

I wouldn't run jank like New Moon or Hrothgar, you can score kills with just about anything in this game, but you'll be at a huge disadvantage the instant you're up against a more serious opponent.

Oh, don't get me wrong, Hrothgar is trash, just been too lazy to find another standard PVP build for an Arc when I can just switch to a different toon. Though it works well in BGs on the Arc.
