Having trouble fitting in; haven't been in any huge guild battles yet, so I've just been arena hopping with an anti-caster build (20 PvP only char); however, there don't really seem to be a lot of casters/monks just toodling about in the random arenas.
When I get in contact with a monk, it's fun.
However, I noticed that bleed, and poison especially kick my butt and there isn't a whole lot I can do about it.
This is what I'd like my final build to look like, focusing on Domination/Blood, but would totally change my blood spec for Plague Signet (when I get it) unless someone has any better ideas (Level 14 right now and working to 20 steadily). Another problem I'm having is high mana-consumption
Current:
Fast casting - 5
Illusion - 10
Domination - 12
Blood - 10
Empathy
Backfire
Powerleak
Shatter Enchantment
Phantom Pain
Conjure Phantasm
Phantom Pain
Life Siphon
If I can find it, I'd like to get Migraine (and/or Arcane Connundrum), but like I said, I'm still having the same problem with bleed/poison. I was also thinking possibly Signet of Humility for Rangers. And yes, I know I don't use a lot of my Necro skills, which I thought might be a problem since all I do is use them for health regen.
Thanks in advance for the info
Need help with Me/N build!

Illusion = no.
Waste of the points. You'd be better off going Blood 12, Dom 12, Fast 5 (this is without runes).
and trying my skill line up:
Wastrels Worry
Shatter Dilusions
Energy Burn
Malaise
Wither
Backfire
Power Spike
Res Sig.
Always worked for me. Slap on a Domination and Fast Casting rune, and you'll be set.

12/12/5? Maybe I don't remember, but can't you just go 12/12/3? Or are you assuming with a hat?

Someone posted a really neat mes/nec build earlier. It uses backfire, wastrels, and that soul barb curse thing that causes dmg every time a new hex is used.
I decided to try it out, and also brought the curse that cuts healing power. That thing MURDERED monks, solo, in seconds flat. Ditto for elementalists, or any other caster.
Blitzkrieg, where does your energy come from? I find that if I have fewer then two energy regen spells, I have downtime.

Illusion is McGreat. Arcane Condundrum in conjunction with Migraine and the Powers is amazing, although only for you pro active mesmers. Dom shutdown is for lazy people like me. iW is also in there. you sinner -.-
Blitz, can i ask why you have 12 blood? Malaise and Wither are Curses :S?

Indeed... Illusion is basically useless for mesmer primaries, unless you'll be tackling illusionary weapon. Defile flesh is a good non-elite that reduces monk healing power.
