Harbinger and eFeora are my "top" casters. The Harbinger is incredibly strong in scenario play. Advance up an feat, especially if you can hop on control points early, is incredibly strong. And she has a fantastic spell list.

eFeora is just nasty. The trick I have seen with her is take a Castigator plus Holy Zealots and a monolith bearer. On your feat turn, castigate with as many monolith bearers as possible within 2" of it (make sure that they have greater destiny up to make them immune to all damage from fire). You will easily have 10 to 12 fire effects to allocate to your opponents army, ignoring stealth, and if you set it up correctly with the rest of your force, be camping on a crap ton of focus. Watch your opponent's face as most of his infantry and support solos just dies in his control phase.

I used to do this with a bonded Vanquisher in Mk1. You can spread the fires, but you don't get focus for this trick anymore as IIRC, the focus is given at start of the feat and you only get focus for ENEMY models which are on fire.

I've always found it to be more effective to advance the zealots and throw their bombs, while ending their activations in a semi-circle. Advance the vanquisher into position and thresher them. That way you can throw bombs AND spread fires. Also, I've used the invincible zealots to position sprays from Cleansers. This is also fun.
