I use PvX to give me a little inspiration. I love taking a bar off their site and making it new and unique. I admit though, I've taken a few builds off of there. But hey why not? The guys over do know what they are talking about (well, most of them).

never used it, never will.

I've played this game for far too long to need a website to tell me what skillbar to run to achieve a certain goal.

I look at the ratings before the builds, generally.

I do use some PvX wiki, but I play with them as time goes on. I take a couple attribute points out of something maybe, and put them into something I believe needs it more. Crap like that.

I really have to agree with that.

i use wiki for farming builds and heroes.
time to time i will get ideas off them for my own builds, and then test out my own build compared to the wiki one to see which one is better.
if wiki has a build that is better then the one i have then of course i'll use it.

I have used a lot for guides to get started but I don't have a build I have gotten off there that is the same. I always tailor them to my playing style. I do run some hero build off there for something new since there are a few classes I don't play alot so I am not too educated on their skills. Some of the farming builds are interested but again I always edit to tailor towards the skills I have and how I like to play the game.

While most people say they don't, their lie or are ignorant.
Most people's builds are already on pvx, wether they got them from there is not the point.

So yeah, 90% of the people use ''Wiki'' Builds.

LOL AMEN. Their top build is a warrior using Star Burst, Flame Djinn's Haste, and Flame Burst. Sorry to those fellas that believe the statement in usage "It is a great feeling to see them put up a block and think they have you handled then you kill them with Fire Magic!" LOL any warrior doing that on me would get rolled in 2 seconds.

As for my answer, PvX wiki for PvE = good, PvX wiki for PvP=U ARE FAIL MAKE A REAL BUILD!!!!

I do. I'm a full time reverse engineer (legally) an d I have neither the time nor the energy after I get off work to think out new builds all the time. i just like going in and killing stuff (Marine Corps vet) and doing the quests/missions/sightseeing. Every now and then I'll expend the time and energy to come up with my own builds for messing around. I like to see the content more than I like messing with builds. Thena gain, i'm the kind of guy that likes to play warhammer 40k (the real one, not the computer one, which I also enjoy playing) without spending too much time painting my minis.

I use PvX wiki on the rare occassion that I need to look up some gay bullshit bar that involves multiple instances of faggotry, although I can't remember the last time I did so and therefore have no relevant example to cite.

usually though, obs is better

getting new builds off of obsa mode is better then pvxwiki.

inf fact it does like this:

your own build that you design (provided it is not nuking assassin etc), then obs mode builds from high en pvp matches, then pvxwiki build.


one of the funniest this is the 3 necromancer sabway teambuild... been using almost the same build with my necromancer since the release of nightfall

I daily check PvX-wiki and gamependium just to do some research one what builds people will be running. I also get a lot of inspiration from those builds. I usually take the builds and reform them to my likeness making them better .
Sometimes in AB you can just spot those pvx-wiki users and then you just make a counter build and their all f**ked.

I have and always will, but I mostly change the build and make it useful for me.

I got tired off it and got my account purposely banned. Lots of fail builds get voted great and lots of great builds get voted poor. The only thing worth contributing to was the trolling, which they decided to stop.

Who needs PvX when you have Ursan?

I use it for hero and myself as starting points and farming builds completely.
