Quite alot of damage capability in it, but your energy management is very low. You have nothing to boost energy, and quite alot of high-cost spells (chain lightning gives Exh as well, i think).

Its a possible build for PvP perhaps... but the energy management needs some work. Perhaps drop backfire and get ethertap, using 10+1+13 domination to get the max drain off esurge/burn you should have some spare points to get a +12 energy tap.

If you are splitting Dom/Air I highly suggest you take gale and leave air at 5. The damage air skills you have their don't mix well with the dom skills you picked. If you want to fast cast air you have to go all into it.

its more PvP. I agree with war, go more dom-focused and use 5 air with gale for interrupting/knockdown. Toss in Sig of weariness if you're gonna use surge and burn as well, might help some..

maybe if i drop both the lightning skills i can get choas storm so i can stop casters even more then surge+burn+mind wrack to kill warriors and such and my secoindary can just be a monk ( i hear they get reusable rez sigs, they do right?)

Anyone with half a brain will walk out of chaos storm. Those who don't would probably die with or without it cast on them, so I never bring it. Since you like damage, try empathy, drop power spike, and add shatter delusions.

Or, as you say, you can use the monks spell res (they get a few different ones), but signet is faster and brings targets back ready to fight. Not a big deal in PvE, but if you go into PvP, you'll always want it unless told by your team otherwise.

Energy Surge {E}
Energy Burn
Backfire
Mind Wrack
Sig of Weariness
Empathy
Shatter Delusions
Res Signet

If you want to deny energy, then I suggest this build

Oh, and you might want to start playing with the "edit" button.
