[edit] Usage

• Use Air Attunement before the fight.
• Pick a target, then use Chilling Winds+ Freezing Gust for the hex, cast Arc Lightning and Gust then use Glyph of Lesser Energy and Lightning Orb.
• Repeat if necesary.

[edit] Counters

• Protective Spirit.
• Fast hex removal but this is not so hard on this build since Freezing Gust recharges in 5 seconds.
• Any anti-caster hex( Backfire, Spiteful Spirit).
• Diversion on Freezing Gust.

[edit] Variants

• Use Inspired Enchantment for enchantment removal (requires Mesmer secondary, invest remaning attribute points into Inspiration magic).

• Use Arcane Echo instead of Arch Lightning for double knock down but watch out for energy if you do this.
