Me/Rt Fast Casting Restoration

I was messing around with combining Fast Casting with other proffesions, came up with this fun build.

This build utilizes the Mesmers attribute Fast Casting to spam Ritualists healing spells.

Attributes:
16 Fast Casting (Sup Fast Casting, Sleek Mask)
12 Restoration
3 Communing

Equipment:
Stalwart PvP Sleek Mask of Superior Vigor
Radiant PvP Rogue Attire of Superior Fast Casting
Stalwart PvP Rogue Gloves of Attunement
Radiant PvP Rogue Hose of Attunement
Stalwart PvP Rogue Footwear of Attunement
(Attunement is one of the new runes provided by Nightfall, it adds +2 energy, and it stacks.)
20/20 Restoration Staff with a +30 HP Mod works. (PvP staffs seem to yield an extra 20% skill recharge mod.)

Skills:
Mend Body and Soul
Spirit Light
Soothing Memorys
Pain (Used to increase Spirit Light Weapon.)
Spirit Light Weapon [E]
Weapon of Warding
Generous Was Tsungrai
Flesh of My Flesh

Strategy:
Just as a normal healer, spam the healing spells (Skills 1-3) to your heart's content. Use Pain to increase the healing from Spirit Light Weapon, and use Generous Was Tsungrai as a burst heal for yourself. If an ally dies, hit Flesh of my Flesh, then heal yourself with Generous Was Tsungrai, then heal them.

Pros:
During testing of this build in RA, I wasnt targeted as often as I was monking, therefore I could heal without worrying about getting hit too often.

Cons:
Since this build is using healing spells from its Secondary Proffesion, healing will be weakened. I had trouble healing my team when the enemy team was attacking them all at once, instead of focusing on one.


If a build like this has been posted before, forgive me , I dont play mesmer often.

Variant 1:

Skills:
Mend Body and Soul
Spirit Light
Wielder's Boon
Soothing Memorys
Expel Hexes[E]
Weapon of Warding
Generous Was Tsungrai
Flesh of My Flesh

This Variant provides some Hex Removal. At the cost of the Elite Spirit Light Weapon. I'm still in search of some effective Condition Removal.

Variant 2:
Mend Body and Soul
Spirit Light
Soothing Memorys
Pain (Replaced Wielders Boon.)
Expel Hexes[E]
Weapon of Warding
Generous Was Tsungrai
Flesh of My Flesh

Dropped Wielders boon for Pain, use pain to trigger the conditon removal effect of Mend Body And Soul. Ill start some testing.

Nice build, i can see y you might have trouble with the healing when u get attacked all at once, but overall, it seems probable, though i despise monking, lol no offense or anything, may want to add some energy management as well.

Energy isnt too big of a deal, the majority of these spells cost 5 energy.

I used a variant of this kind of build in RA and got a gladiator's point (with pre-nerf mantra of recall, and the wammo used life barrier and life bond to protect me though...)

Added another Variant, ill test it in a few minutes, to see if it works.
