==Overview==
Elementalists deal in all things elemental. A powerful caster-summoner hybrid, they have access to conditional but powerful element damage bonuses, some granted periodically or with a skill requirement. They can also specialize in elemental [[ailment]]s, elemental [[Herald]] skills, and [[golems]]. Some passive skills can be mixed and matched to accommodate multiple damage types, even physical and chaos. The Elementalist is the strongest of the classes at enhancing direct-damage spells to their maximum, and rapidly applying elemental damage to a target the very instant they see it. They also get VERY powerful Golems and very powerful buffs from them; while the buff from multiple Golems of the same type does not stack the Elementalist has two very powerful passives that greatly enhance the effect of the buff for every Golem out, as well as increasing the maximum number allowed.
