1.8 PvP Pyro/Lock Builds... With lvl 49 cap in mind

[geLid]

Long story short, I'm looking for a PvP-centric "single target" PvP build that offers damage and CC over all else w/o dealing with the dom tree. What I run into is a build similar to http://rift.zam.com/en/stc.html?t=1z...z.xx0GoVVxz.-5, but given linked build would like to get Fiery Concentration to three points and drop two points in the pyro tree in order to maintain the lock 32 silence. Any advise is greatly appreciated. I suppose I should also note that I'm interested in keeping the Radiate Death + Fire Storm aoe drop... and losing both Radiate Death and Neddra's Grasp would cause me to lose the silence.

As it stands, I assume I'll have to give up on my aoe and silence aspirations to get my 100% pushback and everything else linked in the pyro tree.

I'd go http://www.riftsoulbuilder.com/soul_...9bcb97efe59a42 and lose a Pyro point or two. Have had so much success with that spec, it really hurts that much

And there's more CC than you'd think. Burning Bonds, Backdraft, Lockdown, Flashfire (very situational) and Flowing Sand all does a very nice job, especially with the addition of Flicker.

It's more or less even better without Fulminate as well as you can [notactive] macro all you want then and only have to worry about turning IC off now and then.
Here are some macros that works decently well with the spec and makes it quite easy to play. It's more or less about always staying on the move and always keeping the max possible range to the opponents.

#show Fireball
suppressmacrofailures
cast Flame Bolt
cast [notactive] Internalize charge
cast Countdown
cast Fireball
cast Ignite

#show burning shield
cast @self burning shield
cast @self consuming flames
cast @self ice shield

#show backdraft
suppressmacrofailures
cast backdraft
cast lockdown
cast Searing Vitality

#show Inferno
suppressmacrofailures
cast [notactive] Internalize charge
cast Inferno

#show Cinder Burst
suppressmacrofailures
cast [notactive] Internalize charge
cast Cinder Burst

Thanks for the reply, Calmethar. Loading this spec right now.

Edit: played 4 warfronts or so and very fun indeed... the damage is top notch and the build really synergizes with the added dmg absorb/reduction.
