Ive come up with a very nice spike build:

Elemental flame
For 5...17 seconds, whenever an Elemental Hex ends on target foe, that foe is set on fire for 1...3 seconds.
Shatterstone (elite)
Target foe is struck for 25...85 cold damage and is Hexed with Shatterstone for 3 seconds. When Shatterstone ends, that foe is struck for 25...85 cold damage.
Vapor blade
Target foe is struck for 15...111 cold damage. Vapor Blade deals half damage if that foe has any Enchantments on them.
Steam
If target foe is on fire, Steam Blinds that foe for 5...9 seconds and strikes for 20...68 cold damage. Otherwise, that foe is struck for 5...41 cold damage.
Freezing Gust
If target foe is under the effect of a Water Magic Hex, that foe is struck for 20...68 cold damage. Otherwise, that foe moves 66% slower for 1...5 seconds
Water attunement
For 36...55 seconds, you are attuned to Water. You gain 1 Energy plus 30% of the base Energy cost of the Skill each time you use Water Magic
Optional slot Smoldering embers, ice spear for good dps, armor of mist as a self defence
Rez sig

Usage:
Target a foe, then use shatterstone, elemental flame ,freezing gust, the target will be burning so use steam and at the end as a finisher use Vapor blade.

This build has little selfdefence but u should just try to snare people and kite properly. As usual please dont give any unsupported comments.

elemental flame is utter crap.

not sure why you want that many damage skills (and freezing gust isn't actually supposed to be damaging but a snare, and if you are using it as a snare, you will surely want gole, which isn't even listed as optional spot), when you could just go with /A for augury of death and a deewound.

(moo for move)

The idea is good but if you try Shatterstone, Vapor Blade, Augury of Death (assassin) followed by Frozen Burst, you'll kill a caster. You might need anoter dmg skill for the 50% drop though.
