EZ Condi Core Elementalist | 33.4k DPS | AW2

Disclaimer:
These rotations and playstyles, as well as the PoV, is intentionally designed so that almost any player will be able to bring it to the golem and achieve the set benchmark, even at ~300 ping. The rotation is also designed around being very playable in an actual raid scenario, where you will be required to do mechanics or move around, instead of pushing the maximum DPS possible on the Golem for the class. Experienced players will easily beat this DPS benchmark playing the same build as the benchmark is NOT grinded.
Core Elementalist has been a passion project of mine, and today I am happy to present that it is now strong enough to earn a place on the website. I genuinely believe that this is the easiest and most effective build to play right now, and I am highly recommending it.
Use all of your skills off cooldown in Fire attunement, except for your healing skill.
Your CC skills are:
1) Water Focus 5 Comet
2) Water Focus 4 Freezing Gust
3) Water Scepter 2 Shatterstone
4) Air Focus 5 Gale
5) Air Scepter 3 Blinding Flash
6) Earth Scepter 3 Dust Devil
You should cycle through your elements in the order:
1) Water
2) Air
3) Earth
to CC, and return back to Fire as soon as it is off cooldown.
However, while you do have a lot of CC, going into CC is a DPS loss. As a result, this build is most effective on fights where you do not have to CC.
To minimize DPS loss, you should also use:
1) Water Scepter 3 Water Trident
2) Air Scepter 2 Lightning Strike
3) Earth Scepter 2 Earth Barrier
4) Earth Scepter 2 Hurl
while performing your CC.
This benchmark is done with Glyph of Lesser Elemental instead of the usual Glyph of Elemental Power as usually done for condi Elementalist builds. I have done this as I have seen many people in raids bring Glyph of Elemental Power instead of Glyph of Lesser Elemental, because they used the build from the guide without reading the guide.
To reduce the damage RNG, I have benched the build without precasting any Lesser Elementals. Realistically this build is 33.8k benching with Glyph of Elemental Power, and 34.5k benching with full Lesser Elementals precast. You should always bring Glyph of Lesser Elemental and precast it as many times as you can before the fight starts.
