The Mind Blaster uses Mark of Rodgort and Mind Blast to deal incedible amounts of pressure on a target while sustaining a high energy level.

[edit] Attributes and Skills

Elementalist / Any	Attribute Rank
Fire Magic	12 + 1 + 3
Energy Storage	12 + 1

Another AoE fire spell like Fireball or you can bring Glyph of Sacrifice and Meteor Shower.
Searing Heat and/or Teinai's Heat.
Deep Freeze for a large AoE snare.
Possibly Immolate for more damage.
Self healing like Glyph of Restoration.
IF for any reason you are having energy problems (which you shouldn't, and if you do, you're not playing this right), then you can bring Glowing Gaze for more e-management.

[edit] Equipment

Any kind of armor with radiant insignias, the correct runes from above, and the rest with runes of attunement or vitae.
Insightful Fire Staff of Fortitude with either the HCT/HRT or E+5 inscription.
An E+30/-2 regen wand/offhand combo, if your energy gets low, and you need to spam Mind Blast to regain your energy.

[edit] Usage

Open the battle with Fire Attunement.
Put Mark of Rodgort on your target.
Start spamming your skills, if you are constantly gaining energy from Mind Blast, energy should be the least of your problems.
If you are getting pummeled by melee attackers or just any type of damage, activate Flame Djinn's Haste and kite.
If you are low on energy for any reason (dying, e-denial, etc.) then you should switch to your +30/-2 wand/offhand, and spam Mind Blast on a low energy target to regain energy.

[edit] Counters

Anti spamming skills like: Diversion or Distracting Shot.
Fighting players with higher energy than you (Ex: Ele w/ 16 e-storage).
Rangers take some time to kill because of their armor vs. elemental damage, but degen should finish them off.
