What classes/skills would you combine to keep an oponent blacked-out the whole fight? Also, what attack skills would you suggest combining with this type of build. I was thinking degens would be the best way to go but I'm curious as to what other people have had success with.

I dont think you can keep blackout on an opponent the whole fight.

And even if you could, it would be more effective to just go caster-hate anyway. That way you can shutdown 2-3 casters at once.

Traps then Serpent's then Echo=>Blackout then the Echo'd Blackout then Diversion or rinse/repeat.

Works rather well at REALLY pissing off Ele's and Mesmers.

[IWAY is just so your WE can benefit from it. Frenzy isn't going to be much use since it cancels out your energy manager.]

Sprint when you can't get to your foe to Hamstring him/her.

that sounds like it would work better than my Axe build :S
