Curse

Lately I've been running P. Distraction as my elite, and I'm quickly growing fond of the skill. However, since I've been out of the game since well before expansion, and have only returned in the recent weeks, I'm always looking to improve my build. So far I've run this in both RA and TA with pretty solid results.

Currently I'm running skills of
8+1 fastcast
13+3 dom
8+1 ins
7 shadow arts

Skills are as follows.
Psychic Distraction
PowerLeak
Energy Burn
Shame
Shatter enchant
Drain enchant
Blackout/Dark Escape depending on how vulnerable I like feeling to melee. if I'm not running DE, shadow arts points will be syphoned into ins.
Res Sig

The build runs all over the place, but I've found it has good coverage of skills to make myself useful in all situations.

Powerleak is my first interupt unless I see a skill that absolutely needs to come down, such as an elite binding rit or an assassins lead or offhand attack ( generally aimed at me. ) I also enjoy PD'ing hammer warriors who are on the monk, assuming I'm not needed to kill theirs.

When I'm on monk watch, Its normally just get close ( dangerous I know. ) shatter/drain him, and then throw up blackout. Shame him once blackout comes down for me, and then either look for the hex dispell from a teammate, or attempt to precog his rof once he comes out of blackout.

Dark escape is quickly becomming my favorite escape/offensive skil. when going in on a monk or other caster, and knowing you're going to be taking alot of fire 50% damage reduction, even for just 10 seconds can make a huge difference, and the speed is useful for running away when the heats a little too hot.

PD is thrown out whenever I see something I really want interupted and can't handle any other way, this includes res signets, which I have no small amount of fun picking off. Even if you're unable to get them all, keeping that monk down even for a little longer its often enough to get another teammate killed. unless multiple teammates stop to raise a guy though, you can often pick off each res signet in turn.

anyway, I have jawed enough, tell me how bad my build is, so I can get to fixing it.
