Default Favorite Elite to Build a Bar Around?

What's your favorite Elite Skill to build your bar around, and in what format do you use it in? Is it the flexibility of the Elite, or the damage, or something else?

My favorite is Master of Magic. I like using it with Prismatic Insignias to come up with off the wall stuff that combines well from all attributes. It opens up the options when I want to do something fun and different.

Thanks for sharing yours.

Enraged Lunge probably is my favorite elite for pet bars :] It allows pets to do a viable amount of damage in PvE to be a factor, and augment Ranger's rather meh single target damage.

Elite skills I find in which builds HAVE to be based around, usually cause nothing else in the line helps with what the elite is intended for.

1. ROJ
2. FoC
3. BiP
4. Signet of Illusions
5. Keystone
6.Spirit Strength

Other than the typical meta stuff (SoS, Hundred Blades, AP etc...), a few elites that I like that might not be as popular:

Ranger - Incendiary Arrows; kind of a poor man's barrage the lets you add on the preparation that Barrage doesn't

Necro - Icy Veins; since they non-gimped elemental damage, this is a very underrated elite in that it effect foes "nearby" and not just adjacent

Elementalist - Elemental Attunement, lets you spam whatever you want AND +2 attributes. Sign me up.

Glyph of Energy.
No durration, no exhaustion for the next three spells, possible energy RETURN, and +2 to all atributes, Sign me up. Works great with the new revamp rules for exhaustion.

Glass Arrows - after capping this on my Ranger I decided I liked it.

Glimmer of Light - My all time favorite skill in the game, it's the only red bar one needs, and the rest of the bar can be filled with literally anything!

Assassin's Promise is incredibly fun to use in assassin builds to use all of those dagger attacks/deadly arts skills that have too long of a recharge to use normally. I currently have 3 different chains that use AP.

Illusionary Weaponry is also a fun elite to build a bar around

Star Burst has been pretty fun in RA lately. There are quite a few different applications for it too. Using it with Glowing Gaze doesn't even require an Attunement.

I love to use Glimmer of light because of it's speed. Mostly in smaller groups tough.
