Curse

So I've been trying some CA builds. I think I'm about as good as it gets when it comes to bloodspiking, so I moved on, this time curses+domination I think I used the most obvious build possible;

Parasatic Bond
Spiteful Spirit
Backfire
Empathy
Insidious Parasite
Price of Failure
Enfeeble
Res Signet

Ok.. so let's start with what isn't my problem - Warriors/Rangers/Elementalists I can take all of these fairly easily. I got 4 spells to cast against rangers/warriors resulting in them damaging themselves for roughly 100 damage each attack they make - and so far, they havent stopped attacking yet, and otherwise it's an effective shutdown. And ofcourse, there's still enfeeble.

Now mesmers and mirror match against necros are a little harder, but I tend to come out on top either way.

But the monks... some keep casting through it, but CoP just totally ruins me, backfire and SS don't cast fast enough to avoid that, cover hexing work, but just CoP and for instance, holy veil, is normally enough.

I think the problem lies mostly in that I only have 1 true anti caster spell, backfire, so I'm thinking that an additional hex would help... perhaps malaise as it isnt that expensive, but perhaps you guys have some better suggestions/ suggestions in general for the build
