Is it too difficult to grasp that the 2 pds are for alter matches. It's a build made for interrupting, 2 pds fit that role nicely, gale does not.

Great idea and concept, not sure how well this would work in game though. The spike isn't extremely powerful, any disruption and it will be thrown off. Punishing might be a better elite than practiced stance in this particular situation. I know you need ps for keeping seeking up, but I'm assuming the pd eles will be doing the main interrupting, and the ranger will be interrupting if the pds can't for some reason. If that is the case, most rc/prots or boon prots won't bother using guardian on their ghost being that he is being interrupted by PD. The extra 50 or so damage won't go unnoticed, especially in a spike with minimal room for error.

In all nice build, I will be making a modded one of this shortly

I've ran spike similar to this which involved an air ele, the same warrior, an earth ele and a dom mesmer. The dom had EBurn and Shatter for the spike, and the Earth had obflame with no followup.

The spike was pretty decent and killed often enough, and this one has more damage and more follow up. The Shatter can't be counted as just 94 though...

This spike doesn't really need to even be that fast with a Warrior. I found targets dying to Lightning Strike often enough for it to merit the skill slot.

So apparently you didnt know if someone is knocked down they are interrupted too?
Gale is nice because of the fact on an Ele you can interrupt all day with it and not be affected by Signet of Humility at all

...
and no crap the 2 eles are made for altar matches...
The build is not made for interrupting its made for spiking hense the spiking skills
The interrupting is just meant for holding which it will be hard to do considering the only defense really are the wards and the 2 monks (which have pretty bad skillbars to start with)

Who cares if you get humility on an ele, you've got shock and a ranger, and the other PD. Gale won't always interrupt, people do still use stability.
