Dunno. I remember the Dragon Ivy's in Factions, outside of Zen Daijun used it. I think it was Diverson. Not sure right now... and it's kinda bugging me...
But it's more effective in my mind than Defiant. Defiant requires the enemy to actually be targetting the one person holding the ashes. (Or so I have found, despite the confusing syntax of the skill description) Where as the Diversion thing can be applied regardless of what they're targetting.
Get a full Domination Magic mesmer, it ends up being something like 60 seconds of Black out. That really hurt me when I get slapped with it monking in RA... ^^;; Dunno. It'd be something worth thinking of in my mind.
Don't get me wrong, Diversion is a good way to go. Like I said, if we had our spike working better it may have been enough. The one thing abotu Diversion that makes it difficult to use for spike shutdown is that you may end up shutting down the wrong skill. And it has a lengthy recharge as well.

Re: Dervishes and Paragons in PvP
I must say that the SF Ele's didn't seem to care for me, I found I spent a lot of time running or dead. Once I moved from
the monks to them.

Re: Dervishes and Paragons in PvP
We could put back in a Ranger/Mesmer with Arcane Echo/Diversion to help with shutdowns. This would take away from two spike teams, but if we can shut them down from spiking us or healing our damage that should help.

A Ranger using Arcane Echo and Diversion would be using more than 2/3 of his energy poll to disable one skill, and the remainder to disable a second, if he was at full energy when casting Arcane Echo. Not such a hot idea, IMO.
