Okay bare with me on this build. I've been stuck on Signet of Illusions for a long time, its such a powerful skill yet doesn't seem to ever really have an effective use. I hope this build can prove it wrong, its primarily just a creative/fun build that uses a few skills no one ever really put together. Works best in RA of course due to it's unique set up and single target damage.

How to use the Build
The build is quite simple just signet of illusion before casting your 3 spell spike which should average in about 350 damage on softies + Burning/Blind. You can take a crap load of damage and get a lot of energy with the Stone Sheath and mantra of Earth combo as well. That was just my 3 spell combo though, the true beauty of this build is it's versatility. You know all those conditional elementalist skills just laying around? Ones that require weakness, burning, water hex, any of those. Well you can mix and match till your heart's content, my only suggestion is to keep the spikes at 3 spells. Energy management may be a problem so if you have a majority Element in your build it'd be wise to bring the respective attunement for it.

So... Just have fun, be different not all builds have to be cut clean.

hmmm, seems interesting, but id have to try it out to see if it really works. Btw, 350 spike isnt that great :/ Plus, the only time you need blind on a softy is if your handling an assassin.

Well, maybe its just me... but I see energy problems written all of over this build, even with the glyph. Another thing is signet of illusions is great and all but to me it seems that people over use it a little. However I find whats really fun is using Signet of Illusions + Acrane spells. I find that fun to use. It may not be strong... but its fun!! (Why else play Guild wars if it wasn't fun?) I haven't tried your build it yet. Don't knock it till you try it.
