Summary
This is a Condition/Shatter build that I'm looking for some feedback on. I wanted to try something with long strike, lockdown (escape) functions.
Each Shatter puts out the normal effect, Blind, Torment and between 3-7 stacks of Vulnerability.

Weapon and Skill Details
With Imagined Burden, Spatial Surge Grants (2) Might, all other skills Cripple(2s).
Signets grant Distortion and remove a Cond. This coupled with Ineptitude (evading blinds and Confuses) allows me to blind and confuse opponents between Shatters. Also the Signets allow several escape (Stun/Moa) options.

V. Basic Gameplay
Main Skill Rotation
This is really a work in progress, I mirror blade and dodge (usually back) to keep up illusions for the shatters, skills 2-5 cripple, so I only use Ill wave, if they have cleared.
I really haven't needed it so far but I have the weapon swap for counter/curtain to move away.
