ok after discussion and ceimash post around hybrid guard and cc needed
i tried this build a bit in hot join and had lots of fun

http://gw2skills.net/editor/?fVAQNAS7dlsApcoVDxII8DNh8QlZd0iVOBBw19QMcDA-TJRHwAf2fIwFBAZZAAPBAA

so instead of going in 6,2,6,0,0 with 33% more burning dmg i went with 4,0,6,0,4 with hammer and scepter/focus
i have 2 immobilize skills
3 hard cc with hammer and spirit weapon passive and active
so burning dmg is not 800 rather 560 but the launch ppl and kd chain them to death is nice too
the spirit hammer does nice 3k dmg on light armor and medium ones while kd them
also you have good cc against melee classes with area denial #5 and immobilize

is it good in team fight ?
not really as spirit tend to die fast so i try to use fast with the kd and launch to push back one enemy from the point and them mini 1v1 on him

Seems like a lot of investment in spirit weapons to only slot 1. Once the hammer dies you’re mostly a weakened version of medi guard.

i am sure you have notice that the trait line doesnt give other anything special beside spirit weapon
in zeal i may lose 10% dmg while burning and focus recharge but i get kd every 12 sec and not 15 which i tend to use the first one on the start and after 12 sec
on virtues again i may get 20% more dmg while aegis up but again for 1-2 sec only while i get 10 sec more duration in spirit weapon

but you right and anet should listen as if i take full spirit weapon i am dead meat or i am pve player
but if i want to benefit one of them i need to invest in points in 2 trait line to make them nearly useful
