    They can be. Until melee oriented builds force you into close-quarters combat, where you at quite a advantage because you can't kite and keep them at range.
    Make Rush of Agony "Monsters only." People should not be consecutively crowd controlled in a PvP setting. Period.

    If only magplar had this melee range defense that could return DMG when it expires, but scaled off 30% max health in pvp. It would have been amazing because it also turned off your mag Regen while it was on so you couldn't just stack all in health to abuse the shield.

    Man if only we could get that skill....oh wait.

    Really need a master destro to make this style of play work well. Valkyn Skoria as well. Outside of that you have a good variety of options. Transmutation and Lich are good sets you can run and proc on a sword and shield back bar. Sets like Kags or Riposte you’d want active at all times.

    I honestly just run my usual Valkyn/Overwhelming/Wizards combo

    but on the VMA restro have Total Dark/Vampire Bane/Power of Light and use it as my ranged bar...

    Don't even run Dark Flare anymore as its not needed.

    Overwhelming is much better. Just tested Caluurion's and while amusing when it hits, it's no where near the damage output as overwhemling. It's more suited for a class like magblade or magdk that can control the proc close up.

    The overwhelming is more for dealing with stealthers and people who get into melee, When I swap to my DW bar i can roast people in seconds.

    6k in 6 seconds if they all hit vs what, 7k burst every 10? They both have perks. Ranged tho I'd take cal over surge. Melee is more my style though.

    I got one on my youtube if you intrested. If you don't want to run spectre eye, just go 5 shacklebreaker with witchmother and restoring focus
