Sorry, my bad. Had just woken up and clearly my mind was not yet fully engaged.
And you want a screenshot proving I can get by with this concept in RA? Ha! Hell, I was using my Glyph of Essence+Shock+Meteor Shower+Hamstring+Bed of Coals+Warriors Endurance combo in RA effectively!! Even better, I could try it in AB! Simply changing targets often and not becoming too much of a nuisance (up until you spike them down) convinces most people to target someone else.
Ive even had this work [to a degree] on a A/E using Impale, Conjure Flame, Twisting Fangs, and of course Phoenix. That particular build lacks much at the moment though, which just really goes to show that even with a crappy build you can still get some kills and even come out on top if you know what your doing.
@twicky_kid
Took me a moment to see what you were going for, but yes that combo should work too and give you a bit more longterm viability. You would still need to use an IAS, and if you did and used all the skills in proper succession your Auspicious would hit the target >mid cast< of a ROF (assuming thats the first thing they do when they get back on their feet). Even if one of the casters 20% fast casts trigger, youd still be able to hit it mid cast. If both trigger, well... too bad.
But, that is a 4% chance.
I wouldnt rely on Auspicious for energy because there is a decent chance that Crushing+Phoenix will kill many targets. To be honest I like this variant a bit better because it maintains the builds strengths while reducing its weaknesses.
@Sabe
First, even competent monks get killed. You can not say that just because Spirit Bond / Protective Spirit would mitigate alot of this damage that a competent monk would never be killed. Who knows, perhaps the monk has Backfire on him with more cover hexes then he has enchants, maybe hes being e-denied, maybe Prot Spirit was already Diverted, maybe hes taking the bait of a faux spike (or maybe the Warrior is the fake spike) etc...
And the thing with Eviscerate+Phoenix is that it happens FAST (see the picture in my previous post) and thus best when the enemy team will cover your target while he is on the ground negating alot of the KD appeal.
Two Warriors spiking the same target should be able to take him down in under a second (from full health). On the flipside, Frenzy Shock Executioners Eviscerate Phoenix DOES add 118 damage to the spike and due to the increased swing speed can be completed before they get back on their feet. I just tried this in Isle of the Nameless and had the 60AL target so close to dead that I couldnt see its health bar.
Afterthought: Kiting might prevent Phoenix from being fully effective with just Eviscerate. What about Essence, Frenzy+Shock+Eviscerate+Phoenix+Executioners? That gives you the maximum spiking potential by following Eviscerate with Phoenix, while snaring them until after Phoenix is done with its aftercast and 5/18 of a second into Executioners (16/18th being fully completed, the last 11/18ths would allow enough time for a ROF). Of course, Frenzy+Bulls Strike+Eviscerate+Phoenix+Executioners is even better as the enemy couldnt ROF Executioners, but even less reliable.
@Dark Tykane
Funny, I dont see you posting any inventive builds.
I dont try to do things to get people to think of me in better terms - trust me, my perception of self is plenty flattering without that.
Back in the Prophecies Beta I came up with RSpike, even posted about it on the Knights Templar forums (if they keep their archives I can verify that). Now, you hardly see me trying to remind people who play RSpike that they arent being inventive or should give credit to me, do you?
No, because my objective is not to worry about
petty things like who did what first. Rather I want to see communities disavow paradigms and instead engage in a rapid, fluid, and progressive process of symbiotic competition.
I am probably telling you more then whats you will care to listen to hear with that, but it does tie into my ultimate ambitions regarding humanity and is important to me (and is why I publically post my best builds, tactics, and even exploits, even if it isnt some place obvious like GWG).
Did I see that post a while back and recognize it as powerful? Yes. Did I have my own ideas about how to use Glyph of Essence to powerful effect? Yes. Did it even cross my mind that this experimentation was the result of someone elses work? No. Did it cross my mind to give credit? No. Do I now feel the need to acknowledge the contribution they made since its been called out? No, Id much rather spend my time making sure people understand why I consider worrying about personal acknowledgment over the progress that was made a low thing.

At all the people who say this build is over powered:
In organized play, its really not. Energy denial, the full range of anti warrior skills, and enemy team cooperation can really render this build unable to deliver. Simple Signet of Weariness would be sufficient to stop a horde of W/E's abusing this as energy is so picky... and even if they did focus swap theyd still have to worry with regaining that energy.
Now, I can see it being devastating in RA, TA, and AB though (assuming high quality teammates for the latter two).
Wait, I forgot this build is shut down by Protective Spirit / Spirit Bond, nevermind..... Wait! Has anyone told the Air spikers about this yet!?
