Last time i posted a S/x spec it was for Zerging, which was done S/F.
This post is based on S/D roaming solo, for those good 1v1’s and if the time strikes those 2v1’s. This build can be done S/F for roaming but you lose a bit of damage potential that dagger gives, but you lose the survivability focus gives, so whatever your playstyle
This armor requires you to craft! So be prepared for that.

The build revolves around bursting your enemy through long range snipes. But you are still capable of doing big things like fire auto’s into blink fire grabs, churning earth blinks etc. The build focuses on dealing tons of damage while giving tons of healing potential which in turn allow you to sustain against pesky SA thieves, Those PU mesmer and whatever else shenanigans come your way. You’re well equipt to deal with them when played right. The build is made for 1v1’s, Being scepter is single target orientated, BUT with your healing and just overall burst you can 2v1 when the time strikes. Stay focused if you do, cause mistake’s will cost you. But do not fear! Just cause you can’t stealth like a mesmer or a thief, you have a FGS! I usually use the elite for an escape mechanism since anet nerfed RTL waaayyy back when but we need some way to just GTFO. Say a zerg coming your way, gank sqaud, what have you. I also use FGS to take camps in a jiffy too, get the NPC’s ina corner and just let loose. I do not recommend using FGS while in a 1v1 unless completely necessary, because you just lost a huge escape for yourself. So lets say you just won a 1v1, but here comes 4 gank squad baddies. Your FGS just went on CD, chances are you may very well die if you try to fight that or run. You can try to juke them, say jumping off a cliff somewhere then pressing your about face key and blinking back up then RTL the other direction. With trav runes you pretty hard to catch regardless.
At the end, its a pretty pricey build to make but worth it in the long run. It is alot of fun and def worth thinking about using for experienced ele’s or even newer eles.
Video coming out in the near future, still editing clips n such.
