Me/N Interupt

Just curious - how do you deal with the obligatory warrior charge? When I bring my mesmer to CA I always get chased by two warriors, and half my skillbar is anti-warrior to deal with them...

Hmm, SV counters warriors perfectly. You really do not need anything else to cope with them. I'm not sure if mesmers are more deadly for warriors or casters... that's a tough one. Problem is that creating a universal build to counter both is hard if not impossible... Too bad since mesmers are the best in countering both.

As for build... when u use AC and Migraine, you generally want a spiking spell, since both facilitate interrupts perfectly. I would definitely toss in Power Drain for an easy gain of energy (a lot of energy 2). I don't know why you chose Shivers/Rigor. I guess if you want to handle 2 casters at a time it's fine. Shivers drains a lot of energy, so yea, again PD or some other high energy gain skill would be nice (Drain Chant isnt all that effecient impo). Malaise is kinda odd in here, not much it actually does. See Malaise is a skill to be used in combo with other similar skills in an energy denial build- say Wither/Panic + Malaise + Ether Lord + energy burns etc.

Illusion/curses is usually a combo you would do to counter melee/rangers btw... Play around with it, watch your energy, might work.

I'd drop arcane conundrum and grab Power Drain

well is not good to have both malaise and arcane conumdruim. wat u are trying to do is interrupt but with malaise they wont have energy to cast spells so u arent gonna interrupt anything.

Yeah, I've switched Malaise to Power Drain, a good choice , even though it has quite a long recharge time, it gets me back a good chunk of energy, which helps stop SS running out so fast.

its kind of a waste having an interrupter/anticast if youre only going to shutdown one opponent. if youre going to shutdown only one opponent, you should be able to do some serious damage to them too. if youre still intent on running a full shutdown/interrupter (which you should be its fun), then design your build to be able to shutdown at least 2 targets (3 if youre good) at the same time. a good way to do this which is similar to your build is to put shivers on one target and focus your attacks on them, but then focus your interrupts w/ conundrum/migraine on another target. this way you can shutdown both targets quite well, as your attacks should be interrupting anything the person with shivers casts, and your spells should be interupting anything the other person casts. skills like leech sig, power leak, etc are great too because they deplete energy enough to further shutdown targets.

I think you should narrow your build down to Curses/Something instead of 3 different things, Its more of a balance and you can put out more damage.
