The idea behind this build was primarily to hex/ether steal with IW kept in reserve to attack any warriors who engaged either myself or any allied casters. Would generally backfire any healers, drop a CP on them and ether steal with both skills and move on to another caster. Once IW was used, i'd make sure to add a CP as well as a backfire if available to make it hard for targets to self heal themselves or cast any counters. IW seemed quite useful at taking out a monk quickly before they had time to react, or they were in between timers for something like mark of protection.

I found the damage from this build very very nice, as IW/flurry did 34 per swing every second constantly; coupled with the dots and backfire (if the opponent was stupid) it dropped most people well within the 10 seconds of backfires timer. Since i was mostly using wands and only pulling out a sword when turning on IW, i was rarely the target of disenchants unless i was already the primary target on my team. Even then, i usually had IoH as a buffer so IW was rarely rendered useless for me.


The main weaknesses i felt with this build was bad anti-hex, no interrupts (which is made up for at least in part by ether denail and backfire) and lack of defensive abilities. It was a serious glass cannon except against a single caster, which i could shut down quite easily.

So, any suggestions for this build?
