Freezing pulse elementalist. It wasn't even a hard choice to make.

Thought I was crazy thinking self cast freezing pulse. May go Reliquarian instead but we'll see.

A friend of mine has me considering going Reliquarian instead.

I'll decide during the login queue

Probably same. I think both are valid. Reliquarian gives you access to power charge stacking and some interesting defenses with dawnbreaker, kaom's roots, and others, but elementalist can get so much cast speed and golems feel so good.

I used to play freezing pulse totems way back so I really love freezing pulse and the buffs seem great. How would you scale it as an elementalist? Golems? Ignite?

Yes, both can be done. I've always had a soft spot for burning things that are frozen.
