Profession: E/X
Name: Burning up the House
Type: FoW support nuker (doesnt need book trick)
Category: Nuker
Attributes:
Fire 12+3+1=16
Energy Storage 12+1= 13
Skills Set:
Fireball
Meteor
Meteor Shower
Mark of Rodgort
Rodgorts Invocation
Glyph of Energy {Elite}
Fire Attunment
Ressurect (any kind u want)
Summary: I use this build for any FoW runs i do. It works really well with the book trick, but will also work without it. The reason i dont use an Arcane Echo/Meteor Shower build is because this works much better and theres not so much exhastion. Also in large groups with the book trick running, 1 meteor shower with a rodgorts invocation will do MUCH more damage than 2 meteor Showers, killing the foes quickly before they scatter. It alwys helps 2 have 2 Nukers though.

A few seconds before you go into a battle cast fire attunement. Wait till a warrior or someone else has aggroed the enemy and get close enough to the Skeleton monk and cast Mark of Rodgort. then hit him with your wand once to set him on fire. If the aggro is mostly around their monk then cast glyph of energy quickly followed by Meteor Shower and Rodgorts Invocation dealing a signifcant amount of dmg to the Area and killing the monk if hes not already dead. Then cast a fireball into the group. After 4 metiors, the group will scatter, but at least a few if not most will already be dead. Just help your team kill the rest quickly. If the group wasnt aggroed together then target the Elementalist, Mesmers or enemy Necromancers that are in the group. (in that order). cast glyph of energy then mark of rodgort. follow it up with a wand attack to set him on fire, then fireball, and a meteor to finish him off.

Only use Meteor Shower if there are 2 or more enemies together and they are Stationary. Always follow meteor shower up by rodgorts invocation and fireball for the greatest effect on multiple foes.

Use that setup for all groups except when you get to the skeleton Bonds. Usually they wont aggro till most of there group is dead even if they walk right next to u. Once you see them turn to heal, quickly cast a mark of rodgort on one them before he throws spell breaker on, hit one with your wand quickly and try to cast Meteor before he can get spell breaker up. THis will either interupt spell breaker or get him right before spell breaker giving u another second to throw a fireball to him. Once he gets spell breaker up just hit him with your wand and enjoy watching him burn for a constant 20 seconds.

Always cast glyph of energy before Meteor shower and since it recharges quickly i can usually cast it again before either Rodgorts invocation or mark of Rodgort since they each cost 25 energy.

Notes & Concerns: There are 3 spells that cost 25 energy, that is why it is very important to use fire attunment and glyph of energy to keep your energy up. You will GAIN 2 energy with Meteor Shower since it will be only cost 5 energy and will not cause exhastion with Glyph of Energy.
Make SURE you are not getting attacked, or else you will have to run because your will most likely be interupted alot.

Credit: I dont know if anyone else uses this build, but i made it for myself, decided to share it
