Just wondering if anyone has tried Glyph of Swiftness when using Shield of Judgement on a 55?

I tried it last night using:

Protective Spirit
Shield of Absorption
Healing Breeze
Shield of Judgement {E}
Glyph of Swiftness
Balthazar's Spirit
Essence Bond
Blessed Aura

Can't remember attributes exactly (not at home), but something like:
10 Prot (14 With +1,+3 Hat)
10 DF (14 with +1,+3 Hat to cast BA, Maybe 11 Base)
Rest Smiting

Using GoS before SoJ, with BA and Smiting at a good level, the down time for SoJ was only a few seconds.

I've only tried it on HM in Fahranur, it easily dealt with the Scales, Undead, and Djinn.

Just thought I'd share this as I haven't seen it mentioned before.

I bag essence bond or balth and put in mending (for bergen) - as well as blessed sig instead of sheild of absorbtion - otherwise, yup, thats my skill bar. GOS with SOJ is my preffered 55 build, easy, 5 energy instead of 15 for archane echo. With 16 smite, blessed aura at 30%, and your 20% ench weapon, there's literally 1 second when soj is down using that SOJ/GOS combo

It wouldnt be bad, but overall I think I would rather have /D for mystic regen. I would think that most things would die in one cast of it, if not the extra 10 seconds wouldnt seem that much of a big deal, but I would have to try it.

for bergen you dont need mending. healing breeze covers most of the degen if you just have soa and sh to cover the hits. and when you do have more degen(rarely) say hello to divine favor. plus blessed signet is crap imo. its basically for speeding up the process to get back in the fight, but i never bring it and im most always near full energy when im done with a group.

I use Serpent's Quickness (hey, I'm mainly a Ranger), which gives you two casts of SoJ with no downtime for just 5e with only modest Divine Favor (3+3, though you want it higher for Blessed Signet).

Arcane echo, why make it recharge faster when you can keep it up 24/7

1) you don't need to keep it up 24/7
2) 15e
3) I'm a ranger
