Equipment

 * A staff such as Morolah's Staff is a good choice, but anything you can get is fine
 * A mask with +1 Domination Magic
 * Runes of Minor Illusion and Domination Magic
 * The best Rune of Vigor you can afford
 * The other two armour slots with Runes of Attunement, Vitae, a combination of both or a Rune of Minor Fast Casting paired with either
 * Any Insignias that you see fit: Survivor if you are concerned about your health, Radiant if you need some extra energy or any other that you find more useful

Usage

 * Cast Arcane Echo followed by Backfire on target caster. Then use Echo and then the Backfire that replaced Arcane Echo on a different caster. Finish off by using the Backfire that replaced Echo on a third caster. Repeat this as many times as possible as this is the main part of the build!
 * Arcane Conundrum, Arcane Larceny and Arcane Thievery are great for annoying casters. Use Arcane Conundrum to slow their recharge time and Arcane Larceny and [Arcane Thievery]] to not only disable a random spell, but steal it!
 * Pairing Frustration and Signet of Clumsiness makes a deadly combination, slowing a foes casting time and making it easily interrupted followed by an interrupt and moderate damage can really help. Again, this only works against casters.

Counters

 * Any non-casters (Warrior, Ranger, Assassin, Paragon and Dervish)
 * A mass interrupter, builds with single interrupts aren't much of a problem as this build has three parts to it

Variants

 * Signet of Clumsiness can be replaced with Power Spike to deal more damage, but at a greater energy cost
