Usage
For ALL eles, it is important that you cast your Attunement first then Channeling. in case of enchant removal. Channeling has a quicker recharge.

Blinding Surge
Use Blinding Surge to blind all meleers until the fire ele and water ele can spam burning & blindness. If blindness is being removed too quickly, use Lightning Javelin to interrupt them and Shock Arrow to get some energy from it. Shell Shock works well against all attackers, especially rangers due to their +30 armor against ele armor which would give them 100 armor to ele damage, but now 80 armor. Use Lightning Hammer as a finishing move.

Shatterstone Ele
You work hand-in-hand with the fire ele. Your snares can help kill bunched-up groups and give hell to their flag runner. The fire ele will use Ele Flame on a single target and MoR on the group. So attempt to cover those hexes with your snares and blind them with Steam. Also the fire ele will use AoE spells so it's handy to keep a snare on them at all times. Use Shatterstone to add pressure. Use Slippery Ground on someone posing a threat to your team and watch the fire ele bombard em to hell.

Fire Ele
Your job is to nuke. Work hand-in-hand with the Shatterstone snarer. Nuke using Searing/Teinai's Heat when snares are being cast. Be sure to cast MoR first and then Ele Flame on your target(s). Synergize with the snarer to provide a decent pressure on targets. Use Fireball during your AoE downtime.

Variants
If you need some better e-management, try consider putting in [[Auspicious Incantation@9] instead of a skill on the Blinding Surge ele and the Shatterstone Ele.

For the fire ele and for some better spikes, try [[Rodgort's Invocation@14]
