This week I've seen some people looking for mersmer spikers to do DoA (E-Surge, VoR & Keystone). Is there a new way to complete DoA in HM faster than Glaiveway?
I know there's also the SF,FoC, Rainbow Spikes but I'm wondering if there's another one, Mesmerway or something like that.

Yes. There are a couple of new builds for DoA SC:

Fragway (should take ~50 mins)
Frostway (dunno times)

But I don't know what build uses E-Surge, VoR & Keystone, maybe is a Caster Spike variation...

If someone has got more builds it would be nice if you post or mp them.
Btw, after the SF nerf permas must be gods to not die in the big pulls... Or is there something I'm missing?

Euh, faster than Glaiveway? Are you serious? There are like 4 builds on pvx already voted Great... Those should get you ~40mins with decent team, might even get it down to 35min with pro team. 50 with bad luck...
Record is currently set on 26? or 27mins? Either French or Germanway... Those builds are posted here on guru... Someone even told me manlyspike got a 25min run done, never seen pic, so dunno if i have to believe it...
EVERYTHING is faster than Glaiveway, Glaiveway is just meta, made so that now PUGs can do FR's in 1h30mins and flood our economy with armbraces, making them worth 20e now... THANK YOU VERY MUCH Glaive... Plz, nerf the sh*t, and do us all a favor...

(Btw, Frostway can get you ~1h20-1h30 with some luck and good team, up to 2h with some bad luck... Usually uses a Panic mesmer though, as far as I know...)

DWG is not a speed clear.

Also, stop calling everything "-way", like glaive-way. "way" comes from "iway" and it actually stood for something, namely "I Will Avenge You" . So unless Glaive will avenge you... stfu.

Well eventually it all comes to an end. I gave around 32 ectos to a friend when they were down to 3k/each and i quit. Boom SF nerf. economy recovery.

Hold on to those armbraces.

I believe I was running this thing last night. Hard to call it a SC, cause the tank (only one) had to teach us and stuff. The team was:
1. A/E tank
2. Me/E VoR caller I guess
3/4. Me/N Keystone nukers
5. Me/any E-surge nuker with mimicry to backup UA - maybe obvious for SCers, dunno
6. Rt/R Clamor of souls rit with spirits
7. Mo/dunno UA monk
8. E/Mo ER Bonder spamming burning speed to fuel prot bond
Except we sucked, spikes were mostly clean.

The only problem right now is to find a good tank. Since SF has been nerfed, DoA has become rlly annoying for tanks & they have to be half gods to survive. Idk, either with a Life Barrier monk they die like shit.
