Default Some help with my PvE build.

At the moment I'm running:

Shrinking Armour
Fragility
Accumulated Pain
Fevered Dreams
Ether Signet
You Move Like A Dwarf!
Oppressive Gaze (Necro blood skill, apply 13dmg and weakness and poison for 4 seconds)
Auspicious Incantation

10 Fast Casting
12 Illusion
8 Inspiration
2 Blood Magic

My cast routine is Fevered Dreams, Shrinking Armour, Fragility Accumulated Pain, Move Like A Dwarf, Oppressive Gaze, Auspicious Incantation, repeat (occasionally pop Ether Signet). In addition to a lot of damage, degen, the cripple/KD/daze also gives me a lot of versatility. Is it an okay build?

  • Consider going Me/E and taking Ash Blast since blind>weakness
  • While Auspicious is useable, Ether Sig plain sucks. Drain Delusions alongside Fragility is worth bringing though it's 4e breakpoint is at 10 Insp
  • FH is much better than Accumulated Pain though if you were to insist upon it then DD would become even better
  • I dislike Shrinking for the same reason as APain; its not instant and you will have already supplied all the conditions FD needs by that point

The main problem I have with your FD build is setup time, which the PvE skills should essentially nullify.

This is probably the best FD build if you have maxed EotN titles.

Why on earth would you bring Techno? You already have the daze.

2sec lasting Daze isn't really great

It reaches 3secs at 14 Illu and besides, it's the multiple triggers of daze that make it worthwhile.
