Genie Skill: Blazing Shield viable?

So I was talking with my friend combing over genie skills and I look at Blazing Shield:
http://pwi.ecatomb.net/genieskill.php
At level 10 offers a semi decent array of resistances to almost all of the control skills and immune to damage amp. I've been combing over scenarios in my head of how this skill would be helpful. Though I know the affinity set up for an archer isn't all that great 5 fire and 5 earth. Just looking for other archer's input or if anyone has tried this skill and has some experience with it would be much appreciated! b:thanks
Keep in mind the genie I had in mind for this skill would be for PvP; with a skill set up like this:
http://aster.ohmydays.net/pw/geniecalculator.html#skills=1e27363f4c5354&cls=1
Scenarios would include to completely avoid the negative effects of a cleric's Seal of God, in TW or NW if a bm comes running in anti-stunned and IG'd to stun and HF a group. It has a heavy cost I am aware but could this skill be useful? Also not sure if this skill is able to be self-cast.

I use a, lets say similar one, Rainbow Blessing, that cast a random skill too.
Can't get a reliable skill cast. Never get the skill that is useful.
Is a kind of skill that I wouldn't advise for a archer or (other genie skil that is random cast) to any other class.
In a pvp play I say get a reliable genie skill than a "might cast" one. I know in multi pvp probably will cast a skill that might protect from someone, but can't get all - for that use as you mention AD.0 -
rainbow blessing is only for clerics first of all
Requisite Class Cleric

I have that set up excluding expel just because I dislike being sealed and only being phys immune cuz magic classes can just come up and pew pew dead. Windshield just cuz I don't like it as an archer always overriding my evasion buff. When I get to 104 I'm adding badge of courage to my genie currently in place of expel I have remove paralysis as a temp skill until then. Its about the only thing I don't like about blazing shield is that its so high costing and the seal resist time isn't that great compared to my Will Surge lvl 10.

That's my current set up for my 81/100 Infliction I use for pvp.0 -
Better skills like stunning blast and ep exist which do both things that skill does for less energy each and let you actually choose what you want to do rather than leaving it to chance.0

Personally I prefer Faith, reliable and dependable. Means I sacrifice AD and cloud eruption until lvl 105 when I get to pick one but thats fine as it works for my playstyle.
Also Faith breaks you out of the stunlock/seal whatever in the same sense as a purify but then gives you a fee seconds of immunity to CC unlike the blazing shield which I'm guessing would have to be used pre emptively and even then may not give you the immunity you wanted.DarkSkiesx - Demon Archer
