Hard cast met shower is very much for the lose. You taught me that.

Ignore what he said

anyway
[skill]Mind Blast[/skill]Is one of the best ones.

But if you dont have it.
then ele attune works fine.

Also he said fire build

The water is not bad
The air is kinda silly but I can see it usable. GoLE is not really needed with dual attune.
and Please Do Not EVER USE FIRESTORM. Replace it with met shower and also glyph of lesser energy with glyph of sac.

At the risk of being controversial, please explain the above. For the record, I've run FS successfully in a MB/MoR build. I know all the arguements about scatter etc, but imho, if you know how to use it, it can work well.

P.S. Comments like "Firestorm=fail NUB LEARN TO PLAY" don't tend to add a lot (not that anyone here would stoop to such a level of debate

)

Firestorm, along wit other long duration AoE spells generally never get to reach their full potential, either because enemies scattered, died, or some other reason.
Firestorm as an AoE is rather weak, both in terms of damage and range. In most circumstances, shorter but more powerful AoE's such as Searing or Tenai's Heat are better.

Crap damage, causes scatter (though that can be good) and stupidly long recharge

[skill]Searing Flames[/skill][skill]Glowing Gaze[/skill][skill]Steam[/skill][skill]Glyph of sacrifice[/skill][skill]Meteor Shower[/skill][skill]Aura of Restoration[/skill][skill]Fire Attunement[/skill]then either a [skill]Rebirth[/skill] or [skill]Signet of Capture[/skill].

Sac meteor shower for instant kd, and interrupt. Steam for quick damage, or if a melee is attacking you (can be switched for LB sig).
Great if you bring zhed with the same build, but exchange ms for [skill]Mark of Rodgort[/skill] and [skill]Ward against Melee[/skill]. Also Morgahn (para hero) as a [skill]"They're on Fire!"[/skill][skill]"Watch Yourself!"[/skill] spammer.

And yes Firestorm is teh sucks.

Hmmm....not unexpected

I tend to run MoR/MB/Tenais/FS/Liquid Flame. In my experience (and I've run dual heats/Rodgorts Invocation spam etc), this setup does work. As long as you can hit a reasonable mass with MoR, FS is effective at triggering it. Sure, you may get some scatter, but even with that, you tend to get the idiot AI wandering back into the AoE and retriggering burning

Add to that the effects of your heat and Liquid Flame and you have quite a nice DoT effect with a fair bit of mass spike damage from LF. MB keeps the energy up as long as you target it at the right target. As an option I also run TNTF (at Sunspear rank 9).

I don't claim it's the ultimate cookie cutter "success" build, but give it a try, you might like it.

Please don't use the reason' it works' because I can run a skill bar with nothing, wand everything and still get Protector for all areas. Remembers there are 7 other people in the your party who are also there putting in the hard yards
