Curse

I've been using Acolyte Sousuke but needed to use Norgu with interrupts for the Gate Of Fear mission. After completing it, I realised that my team survived a lot better with norgu & his interrupts.

What do you think of his interrupt build:

[skill]Power block[/skill][skill]cry of frustration[/skill][skill]power spike[/skill][skill]power leak[/skill][skill]web of disruption[/skill][skill]leech signet[/skill][skill]signet of disruption[/skill][skill]resurrection signet[/skill]

Fast Casting - 12
Domination Magic - 16 (12+1+3)
Inspiration Magic - 3

Obviously he's not much of a damage dealer at all, but he can help the party survive a lot longer due to basically shutting down the majority of elementalists we come up against & other foes.

Anyway, as I said, what do you think/what can be improved upon?

Thanks.

Hey if it works for you great. Keep it. Just force a target. The only thing I would change is go monk secondary and bring a hard rez. With Fast Casting it would be quick.

On second thought energy may be a problem too. First bring fast casting down to 9. Take rest of point put them in inspiration. Then switch out Power block for [wiki]Mantra of Recall[/wiki]. And bring [wiki]Power Drain[/wiki]. I would also dump the superor domination for a minor one. And get a minor rune in fast casting and inspiration. That way you'll have a D14/FC10/I10. But you may want to go 14 inspiration and go 10 domination/fastcasting. That way you get a bit more out of your recall and power drain.

Lose the Superior and bring a Minor rune imo.
Also smart to not use Web of Disruption - heroes use it as a normal hex instead of an interupt.

Follow EmptySkull's advice on the energy part

It looks pretty good. Power Leak is baed in PvE(e-denial is fail in almost all cases). Swap it for Power Drain. As for Web of Disruption, I'd drop it for Power Lock since it's finally un-bugged, if you want PURE interrupts. If you care to micro him enough to swap target occasionally and then lock him back to something else, bring Diversion(which may or may not be worth it depending on the area).

Thanks guys.

Needs more energy management if you want it to interrupt more. You really don't need fast cast with .25 interrupts (done by a hero with perfect reflexes), so toss it into inspiration and take power drain and maybe a power return for mass interrupts.

OK so you suggest I just take FC down to 0 & have:

Inspiration Magic - 12
Domination Magic - 12

Right?

Well, you'd put the leftover 6 points in FC, but yeah, besides rez sig everything else is .25 cast so no point.

Nice one, thanks a lot

I run OQNEAowj2ykDyAFgLAXrH0SQjA

Quick hex removal and quick resurrecting also to help your team out! Energy management is fine because of power drain and 2 signets.

I currently run this on Gwen and wont go anywhere without her.
Assisted suicide

Fast casting 8+1
Domination 12+3+1
Inspiration 10

She never runs out of energy, and she makes it fun to run in an Ele boss.

Signets are your friends

Why is illusion magic at 8 on that build? There's no illusion skills used.

Does this apply with Power Leech and Power Flux? because I really love these skills even if there on my hero and it sucks if they don't use em right.

I think powerblock is not the most optimal elite, but the elite actually is not that important in a build like this, go for more signets and stick in [skill=text]Keystone Signet[/skill]
