Equipment

 * Prodigy's Insignia
 * 40/40 Domination set
 * 40/40 Inspiration set
 * High energy set
 * Shield/spear set

Usage

 * Use Energy Surge for damage and energy denial - note energy surge does not do damage if the target has no energy.
 * Use Ether Phantom + Drain Delusions for energy denial as well as energy management for you.
 * Use Empathy (PvP) on attacking melees.
 * Use Diversion on targets expected to use key skills soon - Word of Healing and Assassin skill chains are high priority.
 * If the caster is using a low-energy set (you'll notice you won't be doing any damage with ESurge), try to time your skills to when they are using spells, at which point they should be in their casting sets and therefore have no energy hidden.

Counters

 * Anti-casting skills.
 * Energy denial.
 * Target using energy hiding.
