I usually use an interupt build, sometimes, I'll go with health degen.

[skill]cry of frustration[/skill][skill]web of disruption[/skill][skill]power spike[/skill][skill]leech signet[/skill][skill]power leak[/skill][skill]mantra of recovery[/skill][skill]ether feast[/skill][skill]resurrection signet[/skill] or [skill]rebirth[/skill]

I like going pure interupt, just so I can help my PUG survive from nasty ele bosses.

I usually play degeneration build on PvE (it is not domination but may be helpful in any way):

[skill]Conjure Phantasm[/skill][skill]Images of Remorse[/skill][skill]Conjure Nightmare[/skill][skill]Auspicious Incantation[/skill][skill]Energy Drain[/skill][skill]Illusion Of Weakness[/skill][skill]Distortion[/skill] or [skill]Ether Feast[/skill] and [skill]Rebirth[/skill]

If about domination:

[skill]Empathy[/skill][skill]Backfire[/skill][skill]Spiteful Spirit[/skill][skill]Reckless Haste[/skill][skill]Auspicious Incantation[/skill][skill]Drain Enchantment[/skill][skill]Ether Feast[/skill][skill]Resurrection Signet[/skill]

or

[skill]Empathy[/skill][skill]Backfire[/skill][skill]Power Drain[/skill][skill]Drain Enchantment[/skill][skill]Power Spike[/skill][skill]Ether Feast[/skill][skill]Mantra of Recovery[/skill][skill]Rebirth[/skill]

When I use Domination in pve my build is something like this..

Domination Magic 11+3+1
Fast Casting 9+1
Inspiration: Rest

Energy Surge
Energy Burn
Empathy
Wastrels Worry
Power Drain
Power Spike/Leech Signet
Ether Feast
Rez

Dont know what you guys think about this build but fun enough for pve.

I enjoy this set up Mesmer/Necro (PVE skills) used

[skill]Wastrel's Worry[/skill] [skill]necrosis[/skill] [skill]cry of pain[/skill] [skill]energy surge[/skill] [skill]power spike[/skill] [skill]unnatural signet[/skill] [skill]ether feast[/skill] [skill]resurrection signet[/skill]

2 AOE skills
2 Disrupting skills
And steady low energy dmg

Opening attack slap wastrels and instantly follow-up with cry of pain you can then hit with E-surge then 1, 2 combo of wastrel/necrosis

Have fun

It realy depends on the area, but a useful all round build is:

power drain
power spike
shame/guilt/mistrust
shame/guilt/mistrust
shatter hex/empathy
drain enchantment
mantra of recovery
resurrection chant

hmmm, the problem i have with drain is it now doesnt give as much energy back... the net energy gain at 10 insp(which is wat i usually have it as) is 2 energy.

Utaku · Oct 22, 2007, 04:30 PM // 16:30

Sometimes debuffing is important, and shatter is not enough.
Think of lame Dolyak Masters in Hard mode proting each other.
Drain is now a free debuff with a heal on top, it's not that bad.

I know its not all dom. but its still fun.

Gwelenguchenkus · Oct 29, 2007, 10:28 PM // 22:28

I absolutely love the synergy that Phantom Pain and Shatter Delusions have.. and then to spread deep wound to adjacent foes with Epidemic... I love it.

Also I'm noticing people are taking advantage of Cry of Pain, which is cool. I do not have it but it looks pretty strong considering it is NOT a 'conditional' damage spell. It sort of defies the Mesmer's typically conditional triggering and is instead a damage spell with an interrupt attached. The ability is still useful even for only a rank 6 sunspear track, so it is fairly usable to those who don't have the time to gain an insane amount of sunspear points.
