GW2. Raid Build. Condition Fire Weaver. DPS Elementalist PvE.
Last Update: December 2023
Overview
The Condition Fire Weaver is a DPS elementalist build with great burst and sustained damage as well as mobility, but relies heavily on its team and sticking to a set skill rotation.
Playstyle
Role: DPS 
There are two possible weapons for this build, the Sword/Focus and the Scepter/Warhorn. The sword offers better utility because it swaps through all the attunements, but the scepter offers more damage and at range with a simpler rotation due to sticking to only a few attunements. Thus, it is preferred to use Scepter.
Scepter/Warhorn Rotation
- Use Signet of Fire/Earth off CD
- Primordial Stance when in Earth
- Always swap attunements off cooldown in this order:
Earth/Fire > F/E > F/F > E/F (double attune fire then single attune earth, repeat) - E/F – try to place your Fire 5 Wildfire on the boss and double cast Earth 2 while positioning to shoot the projectiles through your fire field for a burning combo finisher
- F/E – use 5, 2, and 3
- F/F – aim the 3 slightly behind boss to multi-hit, and auto attack when no CDs are up
CC Rotation: Start in Earth/Air > 3 > Swap Water > 2 > 3 > 4 > Swap Air > 4

Sword/Focus Rotation
Avoid swapping into Air/Water and prioritize swapping into Air/Fire every time Pyro Vortex is off cooldown. The Attunement rotation generally looks like this:
Air > Fire > Earth > Water > Fire > Air > Fire > Earth > Water > Fire > Air > Fire
Use Signet of Fire/Earth off cooldown, and use Primordial Stance when in Fire and Earth attunement. Weave Self can be used for burst phases or just off cooldown for more damage, but only use the Tailored Victory if CC is required.
Example Rotation: Fire/Air > Weave Self > Signet of Fire > 3 > Primordial Stance > 2 > Swap Earth/Fire > 2 > 5 > 4 > Swap Water/Earth > 3 > Swap Fire/Water > 3 > 2 > Swap Air/Fire > 3
