Forum Link Code:[url=]Me-E Fast Cast AoE[/url]
The idea of this build it large amounts of AoE fire damage using
fast casting and Mantra of Recovery for fast recharge. Can be used
to cap bases extremely well in AB and CM, the main focus of this
build.
Attributes and Skills
See Variants for 2 additional slots.
Equipment
Usage
- Stay in the backline, aggro is not good since you have no self
healing
- Keep up Fire Attunement at all times
- Keep up Mantra of Recovery when casting
- Stack the AoE on the target
area (all at once, useful in capturing) or spread out casting to
keep up constant AoE
Counters
- enchantment removal
- general spell interrupts
- Energy Denial
Variants
- If you are having problems surviving you can replace the
superior Fast Casting with a minor Fast Casting.
- For AB and CM you can use Mark of Rodgort for NPCs , this can be
combined with Glowing Gaze for more energy.
- Also a good choice for general PvP areas is Flame
Djinn's Haste for kiting
and more AoE.
- Auspicious Incantation in combination
with Deep
Freeze allows for good AoE slow down without sacrificing
energy, its suggested that you add a Rune of Minor to Major
Inspiration and move 1 to 2 points from Fast Casting to Inspiration
to get a positive energy yield.
- Meteor
Shower can be placed in a slot, the Exhaustion tends not to be
a problem with the recharge time of 30 seconds, but its still
expensive
- Deep Freeze
can be placed in one of the slots for AoE slowdown, but the energy
can get fairly tight when not using Auspicious Incantation.
- Energy Tap
can be used in a slot for additional energy (move Fast Casting
points to Inspiration)
- Glyph of Lesser Energy can be used to
lower energy costs, but the recharge is high so use with only 15
energy spells to maximize its effect.
- And of course Resurrection Signet is an option.
Notes
If using Deep Freeze it is recommended to bring a high energy
weapon set to offset its high cost.
