It's a really tempting option, but I feel you need at least some self condition removal. Another option would be to take SB instead of Signet of Devotion. I'm not sure how your energy works out without SioD, but I guess it should be alright since you're going to have like 9001 pips anyway.

Just made this

[skill]Lightning surge[/skill] [skill]Barbed spear[/skill] [skill]Conjure lightning[/skill] [skill]Air attunement[/skill] [skill]Resurrection signet[/skill] [skill]Shell shock[/skill] [skill]Chest thumper[/skill] [skill]Maiming spear[/skill]

since skill tags aren't updated.. shell shock causes cracked armour, chest thumper does deep wound if suffering from cracked armour. maiming spear cripples if bleeding.

It's pretty fun, 4 conditions and a knockdown if LS doesn't get removed. seriously it needs a buff to after 2 seconds target foe is knocked down.

Conditions give you e and hp regen, you dont want to get rid of them. With SB/RoF/SD and a little kiting you can survive dazed.

Too energy consuming, no real cancel stance for frenzy, no self heal. Otherwise pretty fun

No cancel stance for frenzy is ftl.

If you get someone like me on the opposite team, I will notice when a warrior is using frenzy idiotically ( no cancel ) and exploit it.

How is bull's charge not a cancel for frenzy? Back when people still ran bull's charge warriors they never had another cancel, bull's charge fits fine.

Im not 100% sure, since it was a long time since I played it, but a Soul Bind build:

Soul Bind
Para Bond
Wastrels Worry
Soul Barbs
Optional
Optional (E management most likely)
Res sig

Curses - 14
Domination - 10
Inspiration - rest

Like I said, I don't remember the build too well, but it was fun to play.

considering how fast the signet mesmer activates signets already, I doubt rust would even bother them much.

By the way, has anyone noticed that RA has suddenly become shit (well shittier than usual) recently, or is it that I'm getting, very VERY bad luck?

I have to say I've gotten a lot of good teams (gimmicky, but good) lately, but I understand what you mean still. Physicals are all over the place, together with different gimmicks such as the SOJ-sin.

Yeah, but every skill can be countered in that way. Dismiss condition is also a counter to Bsurge, rendering it completely useless.

But bsurge is easily spammable and does it's job in the couple of seconds that it will take to be removed, especially if used well. Rust relies on heavy hexes to have any chance of sticking, and if it sticks for a little bit all it does is slow down the mesmer.

We need another random build to discuss...

[skill]death blossom[/skill][skill]moebius strike[/skill][skill]twisting fangs[/skill][skill]black lotus strike[/skill][skill]flurry[/skill][skill]siphon speed[/skill][skill]feigned neutrality[/skill][skill]resurrection signet[/skill]

This is basically an assassin build that recharges itself, sacrificing power for "re-usablity" Very easy to switch targets and spike someone else right after your finished, or just pressure people to death with moebius blossom.

Note: flurry only reduces the base 7-17 damage, so you actually end up doing ~7% less damage, not 25% less. So its not as bad as it looks, the spike will still do enough damage to /kill things.

Also, be sure to remember to use siphon speed defensively on occasion. Using it on a warrior before casting feigned allows you to get away and waste their time.
