This is a list of core elementalist skills. For additional skills available to elementalist's elite specializations, see:
Attunements are the Elementalist's profession mechanic, occupying the F1 – F4 slots above the skill bar. Fire Attunement is unlocked by default; Water Attunement unlocks at level 5, Air Attunement unlocks at level 11, and Earth Attunement unlocks at level 15.
Only 1 attunement can be active at a time, and the active attunement determines the available weapon skills. The active attunement can be switched at any time — doing so will place a 10-second cooldown on the previously active attunement, and a 1.5-second cooldown on the other two attunements (both of which can be reduced through the trait Elemental Enchantment).
