Default Wastrel's Panic

This is a build I made from feedback from my other power leech build I made. I simply love power leech...i dunno why, its just cool. Another person suggested a situation where the enemy most do something or not do something either way there bound to get hurt. Ahaha... this is mostly effective against casters not really fighters. Again i use this mainly for...Ab, Ra.

Fast casting:8+1 Inspiration magic:10+1 Domination magic: 12+1+3 Sup Rune of Vigor.

[card]Wastrel's Worry[/card][card]Wastrel's Demise[/card][card]Backfire[/card][card]Power Leech[/card][card]Ether Feast[/card]-[card]Energy Burn[/card] OR [card]Energy Tap[/card]-[card]Mind Wrack[/card]
And then a res sig? or whatever depends what your doing.

Ok so basically your trying to trap your opponent to cast spells to leech energy (power leech) or to harm (backfire). To do this you constantly cast wastrel spells to slowly but surely dmg your opponent. Its really important to be able to get Power leech in for an interupt somewhere soo you can leech energy for mindwhacks dmg. Energy burn is to kill some energy , energy tap is a replacement beacuse power leech really is the only other e-management.

So lets see this dmg 147 dmg for backfire if you can force the caster to cast spells, ...if not then we'll go for 68 dmg from a constant wastrel worry, and 32-88 depending from wastrel's demise depending who your fighting. Also try to interupt at least one spell for Power leech, hex with mind whack and hit with energy burn/tap. Again this build is to not only dmg from doing certain actions but also drain energy.

Sounds confusing...it is but...I find It really effective.

Cons: Fast casting prot (with prot spirit) monks. Just try to interupt holy veil or dismiss condition.
-Shelter/union, these ruin alot of builds -_-
-Aggresive fighter classes going towards you. Uh-oh.

What sucks for me is i can't play this effectively cause of my crap computer and its stupid graphics card.

Wheres "Panic"? I only see the Wastrel!

All joking aside...Power Leech is unreliable in comparison to Power Flux since you have to rely on spell spammage for the energy gain

I would probably fit in a Spirit Shackles if you're going to use Mind Wrack since it is hard to make mobs hit 0 energy with the energy cheating they have.

Backfire usually does that on its own...

indeed but then they choose to take 140 damage or 120 damage very 3/4 of a second if you add mantra of recovery. then add interrupt to stop hex removal and now there a sitting duck unless they use attack skills. oh i got you use soothing images as well. now you just don't try this on rangers assassin or paragons.
