Notes

why start as ele rf? 
-smoothest leveling starter
-many good builds to easily reroll into for t16s - ignite builds, phys dot, wander

if you have any rf questions go here: pohx.net


Pros of elementalist vs chieftain
-more damage
-act 1 and 2 arent cock and ball torture for ele
-smoothest act leveling in the game 
-lots of end game builds to easily swap to that are going to be better options than chieftain

Cons of elementalist vs chieftain
-less tanky
-no explodey

Ascendancy nodes are pretty flexible except for golem node first - if you feel tanky enough click damage nodes first, if you feel too squishy click defence nodes first. Can also use shaper of storms on bosses instead of convergence

If you want to play RF forever you probably just click chieftain first and reroll to elementalist with giga gear or something

If you feel squishy get more life / regen

Can also work in block if you want to be a bit tankier, block nodes bottom right + shield with % block and spell block + tempest shield
