Makin a stream of my CW in PVP Pugs

Im seeing how people play the CW very badly so i decided to stream abit to just show how a CW could kill GWFs, GFs, TRs with ease. Hope you will get inspired by my build and it will be somewhat helpful for my fellow CWs
Keep in mind atm, i got no sound on for now or picture of me.
I do have "full gear" and i know some of you will just say "its because you have p2w gear" which maybe somewhat truth because i got very good gear (i did not pay anything for it though). In the future im planning on making a budget CW build thats fairly cheap and still can own in pvp. For now ull just have to watch me crush pugs.
"NOTE: I only play untill the other team leaves and its a game over, i dont stick around and wait for the 700 points just to win the glory if its a 2v5 game etc. so you will just be seeing action for the most part"

Link to the stream and enjoy! (will update and make the stream better as time goes by when i got the time for it)

Would like to have a chat with you in game, if possible? (Du
It takes some time before you get precise with the avalanche spell, i even have gotten people saying im "abusing shard of avalanche" just because i use it.
I will edit post my gear and feats in a sec and i will also try to upgrade my stream so you guys can hear me talking and maybe even see me
http://postimg.org/image/yewio01y9/full/ = My gear
http://postimg.org/image/h4ty7ih4l/full/ = My feats
Also note that i have stopped upgrading my gear for the moment because i dont play PvE content and dont have any funds left, i just play to have fun for now. My plan is to try make a budget build with armor pen instead of tenes to show that it works just as fine
EDIT: People requested to see my powers, i will just tell you which powers to max and are important for both pve and pvp and the rest, u can skill as you please
Magic missile MAX
Chill strike MAX
Conduit of ice MAX
Entangling Force MAX
Arcane Singularity MAX
Opposing Force MAX
Repel MAX
Shield MAX
Icy Terrain MAX
Ray of Enfeeblement MAX
Storm Pillar 1 point or MAX (Just for charging AP)
Storm Spell MAX
Ice Knife MAX
Icy Rays MAX
Steal time MAX
Shard of endless avalanche MAX
Eye of the storm MAX
I use Ice knife/Opposing force as dailies, Shard of endless avalanche on spell mastery and Ice rays, Entangling force and chill strike on encounters. Magic missile and storm pillar on at-will <- for PVP
For PvE (CN etc.) i use Arcane sing/Ice knife, Steal time on spell mastery, icy terrain, shield and entangling force on encounters, same atwill spells. May switch in Ray or repel depending on which bossfight it is
You fail to mention you run with 7x Greater Tenebrous, which is a shame since your gameplay is otherwise solid.
Yeah, i am planning on makin a budget geard CW with armor pen instead since i knew this would come up as a problem to many people.
whats wrong with that?
It gives them a HUGE advantage vs those without meaning it is a video that is gear related and thus not skill or build related. Only people who have lots of money to spend can get 7 Tene's.
I parsed him many times and about 19% of his dmg is from teneb. Question is how much dmg/survivability he would have gotten from adding other enchants? Noticeable am sure.
Good question. It'd be interesting to know what the OP's other stats are; if he's low on ArPen, for example, it's possible that might account for most of the overall damage benefit from his tenebrous enchants.
In any case, I agree: we can bemoan the gear imbalances in PvP all we like, but they're not going away, and we certainly shouldn't rain on this guy's parade because of what might be regarded as a flaw in the game's design. It's not like CW is the poster child for PvP uberness right now, anyway.
Possibly the best CW i've seen in pvp, just saying.
On my current GWF and pre-nerf TR, I can dish out WAY more burst damage than my CW can, and all 3 of my characters do not have tenebrous (except x1 lesser tenebrous on my CW). 7 greater tenebrous on a CW with 22k~ hp would give a burst damage of 660*7 = 4620 non-reducible damage every 40(?) seconds. With 28k hp that damage increases to 5880.
So even if tenebrous only makes up to 19%~ of his damage, its the burst that it provides that counts (and 19% is still a lot).
no kidding. imagine only having to do 80% of someone's HP to kill them, just because of enchants?
There is a HUGE difference bettween 19% overall damage increase through stats, and 19% "additional" BURST damage in PvP. There isn't ANY normal enchant that can give anywhere near the burst damage of Tenebs, or enough mitigation to compensate. If each Tenebrous enchant had its own internal CD, and only ONE enchant can proc at a time, I might have said maybe.
I have not watched the stream so I am not commenting or taking away anything from the OP skill wise. I also am not putting down anyone who uses these enchants. While I have a problem with the enchants themselves, I dont have a problem with someone spending money to get them.
