I've been using this build for just FA/AB and have not tried it in any 4v4 arenas. I don't know if anyone ever came up with this exact build, but i have gotten cussed out from different enemies and complemented by just as many.

Just want to see what you guys think, just complement, I'm probably willing to change a "little" but not completely re-design it.

Illusion-14
Domination-11
Fast Cast-9
Inspiration-9

Equipment-Swiftspells Staff, Sup Vigor, Sup Illusion, minor dom, minor inspir, minor Fc, full radiant insignias.

You can get out dmg,degen,energy,and interuption for enemy casters and can sometimes interupt an enemy melees healing. I just love interupting the stupid warriors healing sig and have them zurg rush me while a teamate owns them(just for fun))^,_,^(Just getting ideas on improvements or complements, ty for your time.

Yeah i have experienced them, so much at a point I started taking resolve to screw their strategy ^^. Loose either enregy tap, or signet of disruption for a res signet, maybe u could put in distortion as well, instead of something else. Overload is not a bad interupt as it is quite spammable.

Hehe, I was just in AB and came up against a migraine mesmer... too bad for him I took power block

The build does look nice tho. And Patrick, I believe the is no res sig cause he uses it mostly in AB. For an arena I would take out energy tap for res sig.

Ressurection Signet or any sort of res isn't needed in Alliance Battles or Competative Missions. Overload doesn't interrupt btw, just damage.

also, id take drain delusions, i <3 it more than shatter.

^ Normally I would combo Drain Delusions with Ether Phantom. They sort of work together better in-sync.

Migraine is decent, but usually you can get by with Frustration and use your elite on something else like Mantra of Recovery, Power Block, or even Energy Surge. 50% longer cast time should be enough to interrupt most spells. Also, if you use Web of Disruption I'd probably take Drain Delusions over Shatter Delusions. Eman plus edenial plus interrupt equals ftw imho. MoRecov is probably the elite I'd take in that kind of build.

Actually, a better approach would be to take out E-Tap and replace it with Res Sig but also replace Sig of Disruption for Leech Sig, since you can interrupt anything, not just spells, and if you happen to get a spell, you also get energy.
