Exhaustion Build lol

This is probably one of the funniest builds I think I have ever made. Mainly because if done right you will knock someone down for 4 times in a row, cause bleeding, and perhaps if lucky cause bleeding on the rest of the party. I can see it turning into a serious build (maybe with some tweaking) so feedback please.

Now at first glance it doen't look like a good build but since I view it as a joke I would recommend you try it and see how funny it is and how suprsingly well and resistent it is.

Profession: (E/R)
Name: Exhaustion
Type: ahhhh RA, a little PvP, might work for awhile in AB, GvG is possible for a bit, not really PvE unless you just want to screw around.
Catergory: knockdown nuke ????

Attributes:

Earth Magic: 16 (3+1)
Energy Storage: 12
Wilderness Survival: 3

Skills:

Glyph of Energy:[E] Your next spell costs 25 less energy and does not cause Exhaustion. (your forum says 20 but in game it is 25, might want to fix that)
Dragon Stomp: Taget foe and all foes near location are knocked own and strck for 105 earth damage. Causes Exhaustion.
Earthquake: Target foe and all foes near location are knocked down and struck for 105 earth damage. Cuases Exhaustion.
Shock: Target touched foe takes 10 damage and is knocked down. 25% armor penentration and causes Exhaustion.
Aftershock: Nearby foes take 105 damage and knocked down foes take 72 mroe damage.
Stone Daggers: Send out two stone dagers and each will strike for 35 damage.
Brambles: Create a level 1-8 Spirit. Non-Spirit creatures that are knocked down in its range take 5 damage and begin Bleeding for 8seconds. This Spirit dies after 54 seconds
Res Sig: ressurect someone

Other skills:
Can go Ele/Rit and take Earthbind which helps keep them on the ground.
Earth Attunement is nice with Glyph and Dragon Stomp or Earthquake because it will give you 8 energy back.
Unsteady Ground is another elite although I find it less reliable and causes Exhaustion faster.


Weapons and Runes: I use a Insightful PvP Earth Staff of Frotitude with a "Hale and Hearty" Inscription. I have a Sup Vigor on and as many Runes of Attunement and Radiant Insignias as possible. Gives me 100 energy and about 485 health.

Summary: Well Since I mostly use this in RA to annoy warriors, sins, monks, eles, and rits you run out and cast Brambles. Then Cast Glyph of Energy and when someone gets close enough just start firing off with Dragon stomp, Earthquake, run up and use shock then afterschock, and by now Glyph and Dragon stomp will be recharged again. If the person is almost dead then just kill them off with stone daggers.

In the most ideal situations, which happens a lot with sins, the will try and bait you by aggroing you. Which makes it funny becuase they will run back to their group when I am casting Dragon Stomp and the whole party will end up bleeding.

Suprisingly enough you can keep casting Dragon Stom and Earthquake even when your exhaustion reaches the 20s with Glyph of Energy. Normally Exhaustion doesn't come into play becuase the other party is normally dead. It does when the other party has 2 monks and drags out the round but you can still cast all the skills with Glyph of Energy.

Concerns: Rangers tend to be evil against this build so run up and use shock and aftershock (they will start bleeding and use troll ungent mostly) and in this time use Glyph of Energy and another knock down. Nevery really had a problem with mesmers but I can see how they would be. Sins can be a problem when they warp to you but just use shock on them and interrupt their chain. They will run back to their group which is why you should cast dragon stomp on them as they are running away so their whole party gets knocked down and bleeding.

Yeah there is no healing spells either and luckily I keep getting rits and monks in my groups, but you could switch out Stone Daggers for a healing skill (Aura of Restoration: will give you back 350% of energy cost, like 83 or 85 health back for the high energy skills) since I don't really use it that often and because you are casting High Energy skills you would get a good return

Just don't over spam Shock that tends to be the death of the build.

This build sounds fun. I'ma try it maybe :P.

This build is pretty terrible, I'd strongly recommend against using it. It has zero defense and a laughable offense.
