Default New build?

Hi, I'm kind of new to the forums but I've noticed that you guys are great with helping people find new builds so I thought I'd give it a shot.
Here's my current build:
[Palm Strike][Horns of the Ox][Falling Spider][Twisting Fangs][Blinding Powder][Resurrection Signet]
Now I am VERY happy with this build but in large groups [Horns of the Ox] and [Falling Spider] are useless. Maybe something that involves MS/DB to counter [Twisting Fangs] long recharge? I would also like to utilize my mesmer ablilities.
Any help is appreciated.
p.s. I only have Factions.

Lokrimis,

I like where you are going. But, I am confused to where you are trying to get at. Instead at looking at the skills in general and think it would be really good to have think another way. For example, if your criteria is to kill large groups you would have to come up with attacks that have an area of effect. I know you have learned what an area of effect means. Either way, you should come up with skills that give you area of effect, defence, and healing. So far I only see single attacks where is the death blossom

Go and familiarize the skills in the top of this page in the tab that says skills.

I'm not necessarily wanting to kill big groups of people as much as I need skills that aren't nulled when multipule enemies are fighting me.
Although as I said in my previous post MS/DB would be nice.

[palm strike] really doesn't work without [trampling ox]

You know you get get a lot of misleading information in these threads just google:

pvx wiki Best site to find really good builds
guild wars wiki Rely on this site mostly to find the skills you want.

Dude, I tried asking people for help in my threads and they all bash at me saying go to pvxwiki. Pvxwiki is your friend.

PLEASE READ THE NEXT SENTENCE DON'T SKIP OVER IT
Make pvxwiki your build engine and use guildwars wiki to find the skill you saw from pvxwiki.

That's what I do.

Your bar would be very decent but in PvP, like RA or AB but no good in PvE as you rely on the long recharges of your duals. 12-15 seconds are an eternity in PvE @@

So you might want DB and MS, twisting fangs is also good with MS because it helps boost the 50% health requirement easy but also can be a bit of a burden on your energy.

Jagged Strike, Wild Strike and Death Blossom is a decent PvE chain till you can get a elite.

and while pvxwiki is pretty good for getting builds on a profession you've never played (including if you're new to the game) I wouldn't recommend you to rely on it. As you gain experience in this game also try to create new builds of your own and such!

Trampling ox would really be the best fit for that build. Substitute that for your ox and the build is set, basically; no more issues with large mobs shutting down Horns.

...and this is why I hate pugs, and pugs with sins more. The build is a good start, though.

Learn your profession, and get the basics down pat. There are enough retards running around saying, "This build is leet! I got it on Wiki!!!!!!!11!111!11" Use the Wikis as a resource, not a crutch.

Well, does anybody defined that?
Of course not. You can use PS pretty like Golden Phoenix, but that won't be what you call meta...

PS + trampling is in the mind of that, who can't play other things than 08-15.



So long, Lokrimis did a great job though (maybe not the best build with most dps!!11 but it is really okay).
