still in test mode but im thinking along the lines of this...

storm chaser + greater conflagoration.

youd have to use serpents quickness to get the fast recharge on storm chaser so that you can have it constantly up. still dunno if this would work though.

Storm Chaser and Serpent's are both stances, so they cancel each other out :/

But if you do a 2 man...I'm thinking along the lines of Greater Conflaguration+Mantra of Flame (gives 2 energy now instead of 1) so you could actually be getting 1 energy per hit just like in the old days, only with 2 people now :P

Just give up on Prot Bond.
Its not needed seeing as you cant draw groups as big as you used to.
Prot spirit works fine, and you arent as screwed if its stripped...

i think that greater conflagration + winter + mantra of frost should work better

It might, but if you have mantra of flame your 2man partner has to go /R and has no elite (cause of Conflagration), meaning no SS.

Imo then Prot spirit > Prot bond.. Becouse the only bond builds i have seen lately need a memser or Ranger stance + a Ranger spirit to keep up energy.. Laying you life in the hands of a Spirit that can get killed or can run out.. or can get out of ranger isent something i would like.. The prot spirit works fine..

you still get the faster recharge on storm chaser though if you use serpents then storm chaser

I could see it been more for a 3+ trip to clear UW rather than for simple smite runs. Of course the only problem then is where your enemies deal neither physical nor elemental damage. And you know that if we could possibly go to UW (since we're all on different servers) as a mesmer team you'd be the 55 tank relying on my healing

Regarding SQ and SC. Yes you get the single quick recharge on Storm Chaser, but you still have to wait for SQ to recharge before you can do it again. Also you'd have to stick a load of points into Wilderness Survival which you can honestly do without.
