Spiker 

I've got an idea about a spiker. Like using glyph of lesser energy, skill, echo and A-echo to produce a evergy conserving spike fast with a Mesmer's FC. Do you think it will work because I don't want to delete a char. doing something that won't work.

Feedback is welcome.

PS: Anyone know any Guild Wars video in JPEG 4 format or any podcasts. I want some on my iPod.

RE: Spiker 

Thanks. I hope it works because it's like my first time at this spiker stuff and I was echo tapping and thought of this. It's only disadvantage is that it won't work if you miss, blocked or evaded.

Try Obisian flame and see if it works cuz it ignors armor.

this would be smart, i'll make one when i get echo unlocked, and it wouldn't hurt to have a warder

RE: Spiker 

Just some simple spike I tried, doesn't seem to be as energy efficient as its Ele Primary counterpart. xD

Lightning Orb
Arcane Echo
Echo
Glyph of Lesser Energy
Lightning Strike
Enervating Charge
Blinding Flash
Air Attunement

Depending on the opponent, you might get off enough damage to make the kill, before you have to recharge. I'm gonna continue to keep looking. :)

RE: Spiker 

I think the build will be very energy inefficient, and this spike requires you to wait once the Echos are recharging. I think you are better off using Mesmer's Fast Casting casting Meteor Storm or something, not attempting to spike.




Thank you Maqulvent for this siggy

RE: Spiker 

a spike is best used to deal quick damage over short time and often the best way to do that is one 2-3 sec spell as they often do more dmg fallowed by a 1 sec or lower spell which typically do less dmg but harder for someone to react against and echoing 1 spell will most likely give you 3 strong but easily detectable spells or 3 weak spells there are exceptions but they have some other requirement to fufill for maximum efficiancy.

Another major problem the easiest counter to a spike is an interupt and 1 will mess up your entire spike.

I think it would be better suited as some kind of spam dmg pressure type build but would be hard to pull off a good spike with.

Instead of playing with Echo try:



I use this for PvE and I guess there's lots of PvP problems with it but the point is there's very little down time and lots of damage!
