You need to hit an enemy with basic weapon attacks (light as well as heavy work). Active abilities of any kind (class, weapon, guild, alliance, world) do not count.
You have to activate the attack AFTER you've used 7 basic (light or heavy) attacks. The spectral arrow doesn't automatically fire. Watch for the image Grim Focus to change at the bottom of your screen.

This, thank you, I was assuming it would self activate after the seventh hit, kinda ambiguous wording in skill but it makes sense now thank you.
