Wow, thank you all for your input . I always assumed that Phlebotomize was just a typical DoT and didn't know it was affected by Heavy Thrust. I did read some of A Rotation Reborn and that's how I learned about most of the skills. Also, I do try to weave different moves like jumps and Leg Sweep in to keep the damage going and sometimes to buy time for TP refill when Invigorate is on CD, as for Ring of Thorns, I primarily use it for large groups of weaker mobs but only use it on bosses because I enjoy the animation :P. Right now my gear is the standard lvl 50 Drachen set with the Obelisk lance, I've been a bit lazy with going for Darklight (and my friend is constantly nagging me for fish).

@Rex: I know, it annoyed the crap outta me too but you'd hafta take it up with VG Cats
