• 

pick pain inverter if you are willing to kill the tendrils 3 by 3

• the mimicry mimic UA and keep it up in case the UA dies.
• you might need to use red rock candies with that build to speed it up

Alternative build when using E/Mo

<pvxbig> [build prof=Necromancer/Ranger Curses=12+1+3 BloodMagic=2 SoulReaping=8+1 BeastMastery=10][Weaken Armor]["By Ural's Hammer"][Oppressive Gaze][Desecrate Enchantments][Feast Of Corruption][Necrosis][Symbiosis][Edge Of Extinction][/build] </pvxbig>

Frag Mesmer

<pvxbig>[build prof=Mesmer/Necromancer FastCasting=12+1 IllusionMagic=12+3+1 BloodMagic=3]["By Ural's Hammer!"][Fragility][Ineptitude][Signet of Corruption (Luxon)][Hypochondria][Epidemic][Necrosis][Illusion of Pain][/build]</pvxbig>

• wait for ineptitude to trigger before using hypochondria and epidemic (except when you are spiking hungers)
• you mustnt be late on the call
• illusion of pain and necrosis are your solo target skills so: when using illusion of pain, DONT LET IT ENDS so the foe doesnt regen HP. the timing is illusion of pain->necrosis->necrosis->illusion of pain.

Dont use it on jadoth or on the darkness because they have a natural resistance to hexes (last 50% less longer).

UA

• if you use a E/Mo bonder, use an Ele/ranger and give him edge of extinction instead necrosis

M/R

<pvxbig>[build prof=Monk/Ranger DivineFavor=10 ProtectionPrayers=11+3+1 BeastMastery=10][Life Barrier][Spirit Bond][Balthazar's Spirit][Life Bond][Blessed Signet][Symbiosis][Edge of Extinction][Rebirth][/build]</pvxbig>

Powerstrike

• 2643 damages with "By Ural's Hammer!" on the frag Mesmer.
• The foes will also suffer -10 degeneration provided by Burning, Cry of Pain, and Poison.

Team composition

if you intend to use only one tank, pick a E/Mo bonder and another caster(SS necro, keystone mesmer, ROJ monk, clamor of souls rit for exemple) who will carry spirits(symbiosis and edge of extinction)

Usage

• the fevered dreams mesmer is the caller. Call fevered dreams, use "you move like a dwarf" while casting wandering eyes: cripple to all.
• the frag mesmer must be really syncronized with the call because he is the one carrying the main powerstrike

Counters

• synchronization problems
• Mesmer using hypochondria and forgetting to use epidemic right after.
• in gloom, the monks remove hexes and mesmers interrupt. Since fevered dreams is a single target spell, it could be problematic. So, you can start the spike with fragility to confuse the monks.
