here’s my suggestion. try traiting into the two vigor slots (Critical Infusion from dueling and Vigorous Revelation from inspiration) while taking the remove condition when you heal one one the way. works great for me and i’m using almost exactly the same rotation as you but i never have all my illusion generations skills on cooldown. most of the times they’re ready and i sometimes even forget to use them when fighting easy targets cose of the “create a clone when you dodge” mechanics. the extra vigor and a few runes should do the job keeping your endurance at least half full most times. and if you ten to use greatsword more (like I do) it REALLY is worth while speccing all the way to the end in domination. this is because the minor in the last tier gives you increased damage against inactive targets(even dazed ones) and if you go for confounding suggestions your life will be so much easier (it does say 50% chance of stunning but from my experience the thing procs almost every singlekittentime… seems like 90% to me) so if you’re setup for 30,20,0,20,0 this means that every target you daze will also get stunned 50% of the time which allows you to run around them, dodging and creating clones or recharging your most important skill (it’s a must – have for this to work): mantra of distraction. this skill is incredibly useful in countless situations. for example right before a foe is about to charge you or launch a bigkitten fireball towards you, you simply hit the key and they are interrupted. This is also instant just like your shatters and if your diversion is on cooldown this mantra might be the thing to save you. not to mention that it also has 2 charges and it works extremely well both with multiple squishy enemies as well as big bosses. getting those stacks of defiant down will be a breeze. regarding your other 2 utility spells you can go for whatever you feel you’re lacking. either the phantasmal defender if you feel too squishy or maybe the disenchanter if you die a lot cose of conditions piling up or anything you like frankly. I personally go with signet of midnight and signet of illusions. midnight goes well with my gear and enables me to have all my might stacks from GS2 by the time i cast it a second time as well as an aoe blind which is always handy and illusions gives me that all important shatter recharge when i need it as well as more health to my little pink friends. whichever way you’d like to go I just wanted to point out what worked for me and I should warn you that you may find this build flawed or simply missing something as well but through experimenting with it maybe you’ll find what you’re looking for. srry for the long post and the bad grammar but it’s 8:00 am and I’m still here on the gw2 forums, sleep-deprived and all…:))
