Aura of Displacement > Mantra of Recall for Assassins, IMO.

Ah yes, I forget the mimicry shadow form.

Me/A
Me/R, Me/Rt

There you go

Need I say, eww...

Also, Me/R is usable with Serpent's Quickness, as I said earlier.

Me/A GvG flagrunners...I haven't seen any...must watch more Observer mode...

Me/Rt is not a hot combo, but it might have some merit in Nightfall and I'm sticking with it and finding out neat things everyday.
Here is another little video I made similar to the shadowsong/fragility, but this one is fast casting and channeling spells. Too bad Hadrian still had his illusion gear on. I don't have any fast casting gear yet, but after this test I might go get some!

There really isn't any energy management issues with all that fire power, and you can take all the points out of communing and use a restoration spirit for the lightening battery as well as use Mantra of Recovery's power for some lightening fast healing spammage. You can also get energy return from those fast healsif you are holding an item, such as Generous was Tunagi, or better yet, Lively Was Naomei allowing an insta rez if someone kills you (then I would bring ether signet to gain energy after the insta rez and immediately start it all up again).
And from what I understand you don't need to summon the spirit for the lightening battery. It can be someone else's spirit. That would save a lot of attribute points for other areas.

Edit: I'm going to try it with Anguished Was Lingwah, since that is a spell activated spirit and can be dropped where you wish. Perhaps Mantra of Recovery and fast casting will have a big difference on that? Also throw in Power Return, as at that level of fast casting and with Mantra of Revovery you have a spell interrupt that rivals Psychic Distraction.

yeah I never really gave too much thought to Fast Casting... however my first character was a Mesmer.. and It hampered my ability to get into the 'other' casters like Elementals specifically... Fast Casting isnt too noticeable as you level your character- until you drop out all the points.. Fast Casting ftw.

I changed up that Me/Rt build to only use Channeling attribute with a destruction spirit. It seems to work a lot better and allows me to forget communing completely. Then I threw some points in Inspiration for energy, but it never seemed to be an issue. With all the points I put into fast casting I decided to try out Power Return as well. Holy smokes that spell rocks when Mantra of Recovery is up.

I used it last night on the Raisu Palace mission and it worked so well I didn't care about using my Celestial speed except for everyone else to benefit from it.
