    Xolti's vengeance in pvp isn't very usefull aswell since you can't hit enough to make it stack very high and you'll cast Hfb much too often to keep the +1K combat rating on. How much does the Burning Hex hit for ? I doubt it's very high so i'm sure you could spend those points on more usefull stuff.

    Don't either skip roots of hell. 50% KB resist when you are morphed is a lot ! You have slow combos so the more CC you can dodge the better. The extended root is pretty usefull in PvP with moving and jumping targets especially with the current sprint revamp where players are sprinting constantly.

    My two cent
    I will check that out , heading out for bit..Burning hex is a 0 cast, and it ticks a good bit when you combine it with spitefire , i kind of set on that , specially for Kara Korum PVE

    You don't dual-spec? One for PVE, one for PVP?

    When in 2009 did you leave? Patch 1.05 was a rather epic turning point for the class. Lots of castery love. Possession went from a joke to the only way people played for a long time.

    I did play after 1,.05 and did switch to posession, but it still felt a lot more powerful then now. Right now I get killed in 2 seconds flat, and really no time for a 1.5 second DE or AoX case let a lone a cast time on any of the casting spells.

    For me the cast times in PVP are what limit the success of the HoX over any other class, and no other class has to have pure player skill win.

    Well hox back then was at the top of the food chain. It's not the case now but it is till pretty powerfull. Surviving is the hard part but the killing is rather easy.

    Dear Prima this build is almost ultimate Possesion/General although I would suggest you one recommendation - take 2 points from Spiritual Aegis and put them to Unleashed power it really worth to have it. Also you can have Improved word of comand but it is not as essential... Molten Flash with 2 points worth to get under consideration too. My own build looks like this than http://goo.gl/iACZs

    To OP really Possesion/General is way how you can still PvP on HoX
