Explanation:

Electric Bolt - Thematic energy builder and applies Negative Ions

Ionic Reverberation - Energy Unlock

Lightning Arc - You're single target damage dealer. Deals more damage with Negative Ions.

Hurricane - You're AOE. This is really all you need as far as damage while leveling. Get it as soon as you can and love it. The advantage let's it also deal Electric damage and can apply Negative Ions.

Stormbringer - A solid passive.

Bionic Shielding - His "silver lining". Clever right? A thematic heal.

Ego Surge - The go to offensive clicky. Take Nimble Mind.

Electric Sheathe - You're other offensive click. You should be able to cycle through the two pretty often.

Dust Devil - A fire and forget. With the advantage, it will deal extra damage to mobs affected by Negative Ions.

Concentration - Ranged DPS form.

Empathic Healing - This is just a little off heal. I took it in case I needed to heal up while not taking damage for Bio Shield to work.

Evasive Maneuvers - With advantage, it's your threat dump.

Unbreakable - You will probably take threat. In a pinch, pop this and heal with Empathic Healing.

Wind Barrier - Theme block. Not needed, I just didn't have anything else to pick.

So there he is. Do what you like with the build you cloud watchers. :biggrin:

EDIT:

One thing to note. In alerts, it is best to make sure you don't do a full maintain of Hurricane against henchmen. It causes a knockback which is not good. Takes some getting used to.
