    Is that a threat? b:sad

    But seriously, the chance to silent seems low and duration sucks. Might as well go for occult, or get AD to know for sure you'll survive the first 4 seconds.

    Not at all, the wizzies just usually seem to have the most informative genie discussions. b:surrender And yeah, unfortunately occult won't be able to fit on my defensive type genie because of the str requirement. I was just thinking I'd be able to put it into some decent synergy with fortify due to the low energy costs. Really is annoying how much more OP occult is though, that skill is such a thorn in my side. - -

    i personally think its better to get expel, but in pvp you have to have "dont buff red names " unchecked, because its technically a buff. just be careful when healing yourself.

    expel lasts 9 seconds at lvl 10, plenty of time to kill or run away, lol.

    This is pretty much my genie setup right now. http://aster.ohmydays.net/pw/geniecalculator.html#skills=1626365153 (Note:I JUST got wind prison to kinda play around with it a little)

    This is the all around genie I plan on. http://aster.ohmydays.net/pw/geniecalculator.html#skills=161d27365153

    I was just considering maybe swapping out heart of steel for wind prison. Keep in mind I also use this for psy. I'm not really asking for advice on genie builds, just if anyone has ever found the skill useful or not. b:surrender

    I'm a noob (new to PWI), and have only had a couple duels. I opened with Befudding Creeper, a Swirling Mist (to get the Creeper on my target good) and then Lysinged (done while opponent was busy sparking), then proceeded to DD, placing Vital Herb down when I had chi for it. I won both of them.

    One of my opponents looked at me and said, "Anti-stun??" b:chuckle

    My genie is defensive & offensive - Discipline with Holy Path, Tree of Protection, Extreme Poison & Tangling Mire, & ofc Cloud Eruption. My char burns mana and gobbles up Chi, lol.

    My gaming is more PvE & TW oriented.

    Im looking for a spell to switch out the Tree of Protection for. Im not saying its not a good spell to have, I just never use it except by accident, lol

    I know I'm going to regret asking this but why on earth do you have Tangling Mire on your genie?

    Frenzy - Pure and simple. Increases your attack level by 20 which gives more damage and is useful when summoning Storm Mistress in Caster Nirvana for the extra stats attack levels add to pets.

    Awe, c'mon...I thought you liked talking to me...*sniffles* b:sad Its a good spell, although its said not to be the best for PvP because of its wide range, although it can be useful agains interval, purge and stuff like that. It is nicely effective on bosses and mobs to slow them & increase their damage taken by a good amount. Combined with hard DD (like timing it to coincide with your AS after a NV) at the moment of cast, its pretty nice. b:cute

    Awesome thanks, I'll check it out! b:victory

    EDIT: Does it stack with Rapid Growth?
