Welcome to my Elemental Ward [Wisp] build.
Both Heat and Cold are decent for Elemental Ward, though I prefer Cold for that juicy armor and damage [Reflection].
[Wisp] does just fine with Range at 100%. You can simply jump into the middle of group of mobs, pop Breach Surge and you're good to go. Remember, Wisp is invisible when jumping. It's a fantastic, defensive passive.
Notes!
- If you want more duration, replace Augur Secrets with Augur Message.
- Replace Adaptation with Umbral Fiber for more armor, but will require a Umbral forma.
- Arcanes: I don't have any good ones, so this is entirely up to you.
- Focus Schools: Naramon or Zenurik.
