I hate using this on my war, the low(ish) recharge makes me tempted so spam it and rip up my energy... but then again I suck xD Firoas. 19:34, 26 April 2008 (UTC)

It's all about how you time it. Most commonly, you see it used as a guaranteed KD immediately before an adrenaline spike. But there are other cases where it proves useful. For instance, if an enemy monk is spamming something like Guardian, if you can read it well, you can time your Shock to prevent or even interrupt the next cast. Or if you're about to be spiked down, knocking any melees back might buy you the time you need to kite and recover. When you're about to use it, ask yourself, "does he need to be on the ground, right now?" If you answered yes, do it, and follow up on it while you can (you should always run this with a Stonefist Insignia, to make the most of the window you've given yourself and your team). If not, wait for an opportunity, and use it when it hurts the most. --SoraMitsukai 20:07, 26 April 2008 (UTC)

But it's such a costly interrupt skill... ~ ZamaneeJinn 19:25, 3 July 2008 (UTC)

It has multiple purposes other than interrupt as explained above, my favourite shocking the mesmer casting empathy or Vor on me and then applying a DW so that I can interrupt the next spell they think about.Farlong 01:02, 22 October 2008 (UTC)
