Title: What is the best mastery to go with earth?
Post by: Buddhakhan on 08 November 2019, 02:40:16
Anyone have any build ideas I could go with that can finish legendary? What kind of end game gear should I look for? I'm playing on Xbox so no Ragnarok yet.

Welcome to the forum.  :)

There are a couple of builds here

And some from the TQIT days which might also work

While a Juggernaut is quite strong, it's a hybrid class so getting the attribute point distribution can be trickey if this is your first playthrough of the game.  If that's the case it might be better to go with a caster build and concentrate on Intel and Dex.

it depends on what type of character you want to build.

earth can fit in any type of mastery combos- Juggernaut ( earth + defense)  for tanky combo , hunting for bow combo , nature for safest play with heals/hp buff/ pets and plague debuff.

While gear well, dont think to much about it, since drops here can be painfull to get :-)

no atlantis and ragnarok.. while anything can work, there's one mastery that i would not recommend you: storm.. and dammit i love storm.. but storm + earth is just really giving you more apples when you have lots of apples already.. you want oranges too.. survivability-wise, storm might just be the worst choice for earth.. and damage-wise i would pick hunting or nature over it.. and both will give you better survivability too

other choices not mentioned:
ternion fire - straightforward build (don't forget ADCtH)
rogue - if you're willing to farm for SB cuffs, most of your problems are solved already
dream - but i don't know
warfare - melee

the best i can recommend is nature

Another vote for Nature. The pets hold the enemies in place, you nuke em with your slow but hard hitting spells. Regrowth, HOTO, Plague and Refresh are all useful in their own right.

I will agree that the earth+storm combo is all but offensive... to be effective being a caster type, one must only focus on one element as main weapon... having multiple selection doesnt help at all... so if you want ice and lightning... go with storm+something else, for fire use Earth+something else... if we are talking about survival tactics that is... both are very good elemental boosters, but if you are just playing and taking things just to have more arsenals of elemental fury... I suppose elementalist has that... its the time that you step at epic mid game that you will realize how squishy elementalist can become, and 100 seconds shields arent always there to protect you... now  the battlemage (earth+warfare) is my personal fav... it has dodge for you to run off against those mobs of angry critters... survivability at its finest.
