Scepter/Torch

Staff

Utility

Weapon Variants

• Axe is similar damage, but with more Torment and less Confusion. This means it will likely perform worse in real encounters (where torment loses damage and confusion gains it), plus it is a melee weapon. The difference is small enough for it to mostly be a matter of preference though, and there may be some niche situations where the evade from Axes of Symmetry is more useful than the block from Illusionary Counter.
• Focus for pulls at a DPS loss.

Skill Variants

Utility

• If you need to provide utility such as Feedback, replace Mirror Images.

Elite

• Signet of Humility should be used for CC.
• Gravity Well can be used if an encounter has adds that are worth CCing.
• Time Warp can be used when the CC from Gravity Well/Signet of Humility is not required.
