Well I was taking a look at the skills in GW:EN with a little PvP in mind and was wondering what everyone thought about this as a possible HA spike. It not completely origional as it is just a varient of the current SF spike but check it out might work nicely
#1 and #2 Ele's
Glyph of immolation
Energy blast
Searing Flames
glowing gaze
liquid flame
Glyph of lesser energy
fire attunement
Rez
#3, 4 Ele's
Rogorts invocatoin
Energy blast
Searing Flames
glowing gaze
liquid flame
Glyph of lesser energy
fire attunement
Rez
#5, #6 Ele's
Energy blast
Searing flames
glowing gaze
glyph of lesser energy
Glyph of sacrafice
Meteor shower
Fire attunement
2 monks set to counter whatever the meta-game is at the time
Usage
pretty simple
pre-battle cast
Fire attunement and gylph (immolation. lesser energy or sacrafice depending on what you have)
Spike as follows
1, 3, 4, 5 cast energy blast - this will do 2 things
1. will spike for 520 damage (before armor)
2. set foe on fire
#6 casts MS
#2 cast Rogorts invocation then (if you notice PS go up on target immeadiatly cast Glpyh of immolation and get ready to call new target)
this sets up for the second part of the spike
Searing flames/glowing gaze. This can go one of 2 ways.
1. If the other team is bad and no PS is cast everyone casts SF/glowing gaze on origianl foe
and get ready to hit second target
2. If PS has been applied switch targets
#2 can now cast energy blast on new target (which he calls) setting him on fire Once you here the ping of the new target swith and cast SF/glowing gaze. If timed right you will becasting right after energy blast goes off so the foe will be on fire allowing the SF spike to hit hard
This is the first spike and hits the hardest but energy blast having a 20s recharge means the second spike will be more on the lines of a standard SF spike leading with the set up (getting the guy on fire and the actual spike). There are a couple ways to set the foes on fire in this build making sure that the first cast of SF hits hard instead of just causing burning.
Anyway you all get the idea. As we haven't had a chance to play yet I am not sure how well this will work. I am sure it will have to be tweaked and good communication/timing will make or break this build against a decent team but it will probablywork well.
Pros -
Lots of damage and 2 spells to spike with
knockdowns in the form of MS
Lots of way to set fire to people allowing you to use SF for damage instead of burning
Cons
2s cast time on energy blast and 20s recharge means it is not spamable like SF
Not as much AoE as the origional SF build
Just a base idea what do you all think? Oh yeah remember I don't PvP much so if it completely suck you can attribute it to my complete lack of experience in HA

looks extremely -iffy. 520 dmg spike isn't strong enough normally. i realize that there is AoE going around but 520 is only if you can maintain around 52 energy. and just personally just don't like meteor shower.

Well much like the origional SF build it will not kill instantly. you will need 2 casts to get it right
The first spike does 520(energy blast) + 127 Rodgort's + MS if it hits
Then imeadiatly after you get the SF spike doing 600+
then Glowing gaze for another 200+. so over all in about 4-5s you have done 1400+ damage before armor
Now I realize 2 things. PS mean you will haev to switch targets but after that it is much like a normal SF build until you get the recharge of energy blast. The plus is that with glyph of immolation and rodgorts invocation you should be able to keep the target burning to get the desired effect of searing flames.
I am not a big fan of MS either but it does serve a purpose in the way of knock downs. If you hit it right you can keep a team in the AOE long enough to wreak some havoc. and the ability to keep multiple targets on fire should allow you to disguise your actual target a bit.
The true test of any technology is its ability to obtain porn.
