PS: you don't want to run a resto unless you're doing a lot of PvP. That would be a lot of damage down the drain for nothing in a PvE environment.

Interesting, currently got 3 piece-IA with Julianos and Willpower. Still got my gold necro gear though so maybe I will go the the pet / surge set-up. Just looked into mother's sorrow, no idea why I didn't know about it before. Will find out where to farm and get busy!
Are you going to run a familiar and twilight for DPS and health sustain? Guess I could just single-bar inner light.
Thanks for replying, mate!

Yes, i'll be keeping my build the same besides that change. I currently run the following:
Front bar: Daedric prey, volatile familiar, bound aegis, inner light, twilight matriarch, [destro ult]
Back bar: liquid lightning, elemental blockade, hardened ward, volatile familiar, twilight matriarch [atro ult]
I was still able to complete vMA flawlessly with this build on the PTS but my score was about 7k lower than Live due to the time taken up by casting hardened ward. Therefore, I think power surge would be a better move to start getting used to.
