Default you knew it was coming ;)

NEW VIDEOS!! featuring a slightly less brutal, but more methodical Shinde... with a res!

Soul of an Assassin, Heart of a Monk

Soul of an Assassin, Heart of a Monk 2

proof that sins can be more than 12345 and can hold more weight in a team than just damage-dealing. just felt like throwing this out there. feel free to lock it like the other one.

Honestly this is pretty much a 23454545454545454545454 sin bar with sub-par condition removal...there's nothing on that bar to make yourself less than the same old squishy ass sin

plus....its RA

The WoH asscaster has more "party" support than this build

I'm wondering weather it is worth it to go through and count all the times you tried to do your chain on enemies with lots of block, or reapplied Holy Veil for no reason, or other examples of why you are the same as the other 90% of RAers.

Meh, you get the idea

Wait, a Moebius sin with a hex and condition removal is supposed to be exciting?

Well, you can only support with holy viel. The touch is for your perosnal use only....... so its 12.5% support; while wasting an important slot of a skill

if i didnt have that exact build, we would have lost. an asscaster would have sucked in those same situations (hex/cond spam, multiple enemy healers, etc)
Quote:

i will always try to hit through guardian, because 50/50 is good enough for me. count the times my attack connected or killed the guardianed target. and if it was blocked, i can always try the other dual, or moebius again.

watch more closely, those were the times i was veiling someone else, or it was removed by a foe

yeah, i admit they dont have the epic brutality of the first 2 videos. check those out, they're called "Shinde's Brutal Stampede".

all music is by Trivium, from their album, Shogun. i have the cd and it's great, go buy it.

You sure take a long time to kill people in these videos... Go go go Shock Axe! Also, I feels as though you have an overly bloated opinion of yourself.

it took awhile because every match i included had enemy healers. some had more than one. many had antimelee. seriously, a shock axe would take MUCH longer. dont kid yourself.

for the whole 10-win streak i had a cripslash warrior and a devhammer warrior as allies. they provided decent harassment, but i was the highest damage source in the team, made all the important kills, and saved my monk's ass over and over (his hex removal was smite hex FFS xD! but he could redbar ok).

Bull's Strike and Shock. That's 6 whole seconds on the floor which equates to 6 adrenaline and a shit load of damage. Rush also comes into the equation, which is alot more maintainable than Dash.

A Cripslash deals an incredible amount of pressure is played correctly, and a Dev Hammer could keep something dead for ages. Also keep in mind this is Random Arenas.

Don't take all the credit for yourself. If you are, go play a 1v1 game instead.

hmm yeah they were alright. the devhammer mostly monkstomped so i guess he kept them busy. the cripslash was pretty smart, he had savageslash, shock, and bulls iirc and did spike assists.

both warriors did a lot more than you did, you attacked through guardian which is something even a person who has been playing for a week can figure out not to do (it's more than a 50% chance, it comes out a lot higher when you factor in all the damage mitigation it will do from your attack chains), and you have no offensive support abilities, your defensive support abilities are mediocre considering what they are replacing, and you try to take all the credit when you would have died a lot if there weren't a Monk or two warriors making sure you don't die.

guild wars even in RA is a team game, not a one trick pony where 1 person just carries the "alright" team.

your sin is strong

edit: those people who get it get it. No reason to argue over a build in RA.

glad you like it hurric. and lol, moriz.

there were times we couldve wiped if it wasnt for my defensive support, or me forcing a kill on a dangerous foe, at times taking a chance at guardian. the warriors couldnt have done much in those times, or didnt identify the threat.

or that match with the SoM+plaguesend mes couldve gone longer (and more gay/boring) than it already was if i wasnt mending blind and attacking through guardian

but yeah i like my other build more for obvious reasons.

You shouldn't be attempting to spike a target with a 'Sin through Guardian, or with anything for that matter unless you have some anti-block, such as Rigor Mortis. Doing that results in failure with at least one attack in your chain 75% of the time.

How could the Warriors have not done much in those times anyway?

well they dont have 4 pips of energy to make veil and mend feasible for them.

if they switch away from a priority target because it got guardianed, they're leaving it free to do its stuff. and if they stay on it, they could waste adrenaline getting their attack skills blocked which they will have to build up again

see this is why you're bad and why everyone in the RA thread thinks you're a joke

a) they aren't going to keep attacking a guardianed targeted because they aren't dumb like some people.
b) you're supposed to be switching targets as a Warrior ANYWAYS except on a spike. if you aren't you're being PRETTY TERRIBLE
c) yes they are leaving the Guardianed monk free to do its stuff but you're a really bad player who focuses on DOING BIG DOMAGE and you seem to forget that Monk's have this magical thing called an Energy Bar, and if you switch targets to a person who doesn't have block, the following just happened:
-The Monk wasted 5 energy on a Guardian that did nothing for him.
-The Monk's going to waste 5+ energy to heal your new target, a lot more than he will himself because you're doing less damage to HIM than you would a target with NO BLOCK.
-The Monk will waste 5 energy to Guardian him if it gets bad (then you'll switch)

He can only do this SO MANY TIMES before he gets burned out THEN you kill him.

Warrior's aren't fragile enough to need 100% VEIL ON THEIR OWN BARS or MEND neither are Assassins if played right. Veil works ok but you're better off utilizing other secondary class skills than Monk anyways.

Your the mostest Random Arenaer I ever did see! Oh and lulz at trying to hit through guardian. Your the type of sin who my ranger loves raping while in my stances.
