Default VoR Question

In general (note talking low level PvP)
Is it worth bringing a secondary such as necro to bring a non-mesmer cover hex to prevent removal? or is it better to go with another secondary for more utility like say a block stance.

I know nubby question just was curious what the general opinion on this was.


*Note* Sorry if this should be in gladiators I wasn't sure..

Usually you interrupt the 1s hex removal skill they have. If they preveil you need to drain enchant, if they don't then you cry or pdrain

If you aren't using inspiration then energy could be an issue, unless you glyph, which doesn't leave you much block choices besides distortion.

In general, I don't find I need it. Either there's another hexer there to cover me, I try to interrupt the removal, or I try and over-load the removal (like, hexing the warrior, then hexing the monk as soon as hex removal is used).

BTW, I run pretty much the same build as foxbat. I just take Shatter Enchantment and Ether Feast instead of CoF and distortion.
