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 Elementa 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.

 The '''Elementalist''' is an [[Ascendancy class]] for [[Witch]]es.
-==Overviews==
+==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.

 As a brief overview, a high level Elementalist built from a [[Witch]] that focused her build on combat spells of a single element can have MANY, possibly ALL, of the following attributes:

 *If you get the [[Liege of the Primordial]] passive your Golems become immune to the self-burning effect of [[Infernal Legion Support]], allowing them to become permanent walking firestorms.
 *Getting [[Zealot's Oath]] does successfully switch the Stone Golem's powerful life regeneration buff into a constant Energy Shield regeneration buff of equal strength. This, combined with all Golem-specific passives and the correct choice of equipment can make an Elementalist one of the very few classes that can successfully use the [[Chaos Inoculation]] passive without becoming too fragile.
