                                                        i was thinking something like this.

any comment on that build would be nice.. . .

For PvP, you really want Acro and SS by level 30. Double-phase build or not.

Also, Voltaic S. will give away your position whilst stealthed- Generally a bad plan. I'd build more as a Blapper, going for Capped HP and +Recharge/Accuracy in set bonuses to get the double-phase up sooner.

Finally, although it's nice to have if you can fit it in, Short Circuit isn't really essential. It's got a long rooting animation, plus you're not /NRG so you don't have Power Boost to make the Drain more potent. These days with +Recovery Set bonuses and EndMod Procs it'd be rare to be able to keep a foe drained. TBH I'd just rely on your sleeps (from Blapps) and Power Sink to detoggle opponents. At higher levels you really shouldn't have much problem catching up to things to Blapp them with Snow Storm + SuperSpeed.

Here's a purple-less IO build that shows my thoughts a bit better:

Only if you're fighting someone who doens't have any perception at all, since Invisibility doesn't make you any less likely to be seen than "Stealth + a Stealth IO" will. To be honest Elec's biggest strength is probably the ranged nuke, the blasts both animate fairly slowly so I'd rely more on your secondary for damage.

Personally I don't like snipes. But you could swap out Havoc Punch for it if you're dead set on one.
