Hmm Im gonna have 2 say 2-3 things(not sure what yet)

#1, Well, congratulations, you have encountered a 5 year old.

#2 You have encountered an a**hole

#3 Update Wednesday, December 13, 2006

*Players are now allowed to have 7 heroes in their party, therefore eliminating bugs* AKA a**holes.

Welcome to the wonderful world of PuGs, which due to heroes is almost dead. Honestly, I have actually seen stupider when playing in them. The cookie cutter mentality is irrelevant now because you can just design half a party and the cookie cutters haven't gotten that big yet. Give it a few months and things may change.

Just curious, what do all of you people think is an acceptable warrior build for PvE? I usually play as a W/Mo for rebirth, and I usually bring along Mend Ailment because too many monks think only heal heal heal and don't bring any condition removal. That makes me a bad tank? Please, get over it.

Well, definately not Mending and Live Vicariously.

And stop reviving my dead threads. Yes, my ideas are awesome. But occasionally dated.

Thank you anet.

Yeah that's how I been doing it. Just me and her (mine not yours), except my girl isn't my wife quite yet. But it helps cause she don't like the idiots anymore than I do and I don't like them at all, in fact if other people talk other than me it annoys her so yeah. We have fun exploring the world together, and will on our mesmers, rangers, monk and necro, my necro, my ele once I finish with her and her ele, our dervishes and she'll probably help me on my paragon.

Heroes, even though I do have some complaints, have pretty much been FTW for me as I'm starting to figure them out more and more. Margonites have not a chance against me as i can kill every of their casters in 10 hits non stop, with a Broad Head ranger, Hammer Warrior Koss, Earth Hero, 3 Monks a BiP/MM and an awesome fire ele (her!), most things fall before us, unless I pull bad or aggro is to tight or something like that. Otherwise we do pretty well for ourselves when we're paying attention to the game.... hehe.

So yeah one for the Heroes' that relieve me of having to use PUGs for anything. Since I was lucky (and apparently smart) enough to blast through the game right away, I know what every mission has in store, while it might be harder in some, she doesnt' get impatient and most likely it'd be me first but I don't like not having things finished. So we keep going at the mission and beat it eventually.

Forgot to add, the only think I will ever pug for ever again is FoW/UW or Masters that I cannot beat with Heroes and Henchies. Otherwise I rather not bother with rude people which I will get if I PUG cause I have bad luck.

Also a good revival of this thread as you might have noticed the thread against Heroes and for PUGs, well this is good competition for it.

I'm using Rebirth on Zinger's old threads!

Well, there are two resurrected threads in here (neither are actually my doing, if anyone was wondering based on the above comment) that I have seen so far, but they both are perfectly valid issues at the moment. Hopefully the resurrections will stop there, or else we get to debate the merits of soloing the Underworld with a 55 monk. Please no...

The W/Mo's biggest enemy is any spell that removes enchantments. Why? Because most of the monk healing and protection spells are enchantments. In some areas a W/Mo can be of great help, in others they are probably going to die unless they have good support or use tactics.

I have one W/Mo and all my other characters are casters or rangers. I've played enough with my warrior to know they are not useless. Not all of the people that have a W/Mo are jerks either. I've come across several jerks regardless of what proffesion they are playing.

People mess up during missions sometimes. Stop crying and move on. Not every player that uses a certain proffesion is going to suck. If warriors are so bad, why does everybody want at least one in their groups? Oh yeah I think people like you call them "meat shields".

Go tank with your necro. That should be fun.

Also I don't care if this an old thread. As long as this thread remains open people can still post their opinions. Not everybody saw this thread when you originally created it.

As far as the heros. I think they are great although I miss playing with groups full of real people. Yeah not all the groups were successful, but most of the time it was fun. Yet at the same time heros save me the headache of looking for a group that doesn't act like they follow a rule book on how a group should be built, and everybody else is trash.

Mending is nub. HH makes my W/Mo invincible.

I can leeroy into the biggest clump on the radar (running through two smaller clumps on the way there), activate HH and then the poor monk has 12 seconds to catch up while I'm in god mode.

You're kidding right?

*Pettitions for an inbuilt sarcasm meter under peoples posts*

I Honestly do miss pugs, i met some awsome people doing them. I can, however live without them. My heroes are very talkitive.. >_>. *begin crazed laughter*

Sir Skullcrasher · Nov 08, 2006, 11:07 PM // 23:07

I'm so happy that one of my hero monk finally reached level 20. Hey Syria, if you need help let me know and we go kill something!

Just to let you know, peoples still think that Tanks are the best thing out there so don't be surprise if you see more peoples taking warrior heroes instead of supporting type.

Spader · Nov 08, 2006, 11:45 PM // 23:45

It's great if you can support your own heros or another persons build. The only thing that i don't like about having a warrior bringing monk henches is that they'll be very likely attached to his hip when he goes charging into battle usng frenzy.

Thallandor · Nov 09, 2006, 02:48 AM // 02:48

Threadnomancy FTW.

Anyways i dont think we have this "Hero Discrimination" problem now, since no one is PuGing anymore. (Not saying if this is a good or bad thing.)

Frenzied my way through the game with Koss as my leet sword warrior. He had frenzy and no cancel stance, we had no trouble eating through things with two monks on our back that have a decent skillset.

Yes this will happen. There are a lot of idiots in Guild Wars. However since you have a rather complex plan it would be wise of you to communicate such a thing when looking for others.

If you immediately expect people to understand or agree with your complex plan I do not believe you are being reasonable.

Team builds aren't simple, if you want to find people capable of understanding/adjusting/creating good team builds that involve multiple classes you will probably need to come up with ways screen out idiots.

Of course this is essentially recruiting and forming a guild ...
