For a pure Illusion version of the Conjure Phantasm, Phantom Pain, and Shatter Delusion combo, you can use instead Conjure Phantasm, Images of Remorse, and Accumulated Pain. I prefer this over the older combo due to keeping up a higher rate of HP Degen as well as still giving Deep Wound status. Not to mention, that if you have the energy, you can keep casting Conjure Phantasm and Images of Remorse on more opponents due to their 5 second recast timers. With 14 Illusion, you do 89 direct damage, -9 hp degen, and 19 seconds of deep wound.

And you don't have to put any points in Domination Magic to not waste Shatter Delusions' added damage. --CoRrRan 21:47, 3 May 2006 (CDT)

Shame the damage is applied before the deep wound :( — Skuld 07:46, 8 August 2006 (CDT)

Doesn't the deep wound article state that degeneration effects do damage over time as if the 20% health reduction didn't exist?

No more stealth deep woundsEdit

I removed the note about discreetly adding a deep wound without the visual indicator, deep wounds now show up very clearly as a grey section on the healthbar, good luck hiding that. --Heurist 06:44, 20 April 2007 (CDT)

Extend Conditions?Edit

Does this skill work well with Extend Conditions (elite)? I mean, think about the devastation this combo would cause. Lets say there were eight creatures near each other (extend conditions spreads to nearby creatures). You apply two hexes, stick on accumulated pain, and use extend conditions. All of a sudden, you just applied eight deep wounds (or many more). Same goes for PvP. This may be the only way to make AoE spreading of deep wound. --71.224.251.179 03:59, April 16, 2010 (UTC)Recon LEgend

I'd rather have a better elite and just bring Epidemic. The Black Leach 05:28, April 16, 2010 (UTC)

Fevered Dreams is better because it counts as 1 of the 2 hexes that this skill requires. A combo I like to use is Fevered Dreams + Shrinking Armor + Accumulated Pain + Drain Delusions - Deep Wound and Cracked Armor on everything in the area, plus E-management. —Dr Ishmael 14:36, April 16, 2010 (UTC)

Wow, that is a pretty sick combo. Can easily replace barrage cause its in the area (way, way larger than adjacent) and the conditions are far more devastating --71.224.251.179 22:05, April 16, 2010 (UTC)Recon Legend
