 * Use Glowing Signet (Paragon) for extra energy gain in faster paced PvP battles
 * Take a Mesmer secondary and replace Liquid Flame, Glyph of Elemental Power, and Meteor Shower with Drain Enchantment, Leech Signet, and Power Drain. With the hero's quick AI, they are able to interrupt very easily, providing good energy management to keep spamming Searing Flames.
 * Replace meteor shower, GoLE, or GoEM for Incendiary Bonds and Smoldering Embers to allow spike capabilities. (incendiary-smoldering-sf-gg-sf).
 * In RA or PvE, replace GoLE, GoEM, or Meteor Shower for Aura of Restoration or Glyph of Restoration for some self-healing.
 * In RA, replace Meteor Shower for Aura of Restoration and replace Glyph of Elemental Power with Flame Djinn's Haste.
 * In PvE, replace Resurrection Signet with Sunspear Rebirth Signet for a better rez. You can also take a monk secondary and use Rebirth, but make sure not to use it in battle.
