	Feed a storm with savage intent and not even the strongest walls will hold it back.

This page is about the Ascendancy class. For the passive skill, see Elementalist (passive skill). For the Ascendant passive skill, see Elementalist (Ascendant passive).

The Elementalist is an Ascendancy class for Witches.

Overview

Elementalists deal in all things elemental. They can enhance the power of elemental ailments to be more powerful, even against bosses, and make them compatible with other damage types. They also have access to Mastermind of Discord to make elemental Exposure more powerful, Heart of Destruction to gain powerful conditional offensive bonuses, and Bastion of Elements to ward off against elemental damage. Finally, Elementalists have access to golem-related skills, which not only enhance their survivability, but also give bigger enhancements to your own character the more golems you have active.

Elemental Equilibrium

Keystone

Hits that deal Elemental Damage remove Exposure to those Elements and inflict Exposure to other Elements
Exposure inflicted this way applies -25% to Resistances [1]

Balance is good in all things, but especially in the realm of magic.

Elemental Equilibrium (often referred to as EE) is a keystone passive skill. Whenever you deal any elemental damage with a hit, it applies fire, cold, or lightning exposure of the element(s) that the hit didn't deal the element of, and removes the exposure type of the element(s) that did.

Mechanics

Only a hit that deals damage will apply the respective exposure. Blocked hits or damage over time will not trigger Elemental Equilibrium.

If you hit an enemy with two different elements at the same time it will apply exposure to the third element and remove the other two element exposure. A hit carrying all three elements types will not apply exposure and will remove all of them.

Trap, Mine, and Totem skills trigger EE as they use your skills with your offensive stats, which includes keystones and passives. Minions do not trigger EE as they do not use your skills or stats, and are only affected by keystones and passives that explicitly mention minions. One way to trigger EE via minions is socketing the minion gem into a Malachai's Artifice.

Multiple attacks that hit simultaneously are still processed independently, so the first hit that is processed will trigger EE that affects the other hits.

Example uses

As long as you are careful to not use the same element twice in a row, EE can greatly boost damage. Try to use a combination of skills that alternate between two elements, or cycles through all three:

• Use a damage over time or minion skill as your primary source of damage and use a secondary skill with a different element to proc EE. (Ex. Righteous FireRighteous FireSpell, AoE, Fire

Version history

Version	Changes
3.16.0	The Elemental Equilibrium Keystone Passive Skill now applies 25% Exposure of the Elements not Hit with, removing Exposure of the Elements you Hit with. It's now an easy way to apply a strong Exposure effect rather than a huge damage boost that we balanced Elemental Damage over Time Skills around. Moved the Elemental Equilibrium Keystone Passive to the Ranger section of the Passive Skill Tree, where there is much less existing access to Exposure for Elemental builds and access to Skills that rotate Elements, such as Wild Strike.
1.3.1	Added a visual effect to players or monsters that are under the effect of Elemental Equilibrium.
1.3.0d	An informational icon has been added to indicate whether you are under the effect of Elemental Equilibrium
0.10.0	Now grants a flat amount (+25%) of resistance to each element you hit with and a resistance penalty (-50%) to each element not present in the hit.
0.9.9	Now provides -25% resistance (was -20%) to the element not used and 25% resistance (was 30%) to the element used.
0.9.6	Added new keystone passive - Elemental Equilibrium: When you hit enemies with an element, they get +30% resistance to that element and -20% resistance to other elements.
