Should I go A/Me or A/E?

Hi All!

I am looking for a build mainly for solo PvE w/henchies and the occasional
grouping. I like the A/Me for energy tap & epidemic and E/A for the energy
storage with the occasional aoe spell. Which is more benificial and if I go Me/A
will I benefit from the fast cast? Thx for all advice!

If you go A/E you do not benefit from energy storage.
Me/A? What are you? An assassin, a mesmer, or an elementalist primary?
Make up your mind!

A/Me has healing problems, in my opinion. I have one.
A/E probably has energy problems, because of the hefty energy costs from
elementalist spells.
Me/A is... unorthodox, but you will benefit from fast casting, if you only cast spells.
E/A... unorthodox again, but the assassin secondary can make a good option
for defense. You can shadow step out of your enemies' reach and into the safety of your allies' area.

Thx for responding. I was thinking E/A for the energy storage. I was also
looking for mass damage to multiple targets.

Assassins do not cause multiple target damage, it's not what they were made for. Go try in the ele or necro forum.
