Curse

Have returned to GW after a one year hiatus in AOC. Based on several anet skill changes, and that I finally got off my ass and farmed an alliance rank for the skills, here's the 8 man h/h mission running and rep grinding lazy spearchucker human warrior build I'm using now. Pick away!

Human W/P

[Rage of the Ntouka] [Enduring Harmony] [For Great Justice] [Flail] [Save Yourselves] [Merciless Spear] [Spear of Fury] [Signet of Return]

Variation [Fall Back] for [Signet of Return]

Variation [Barbed Spear] for [Merciless Spear]

Curse Necro

[Weaken Knees] [Barbs] [Weaken Armor] [Meekness] [Enfeebling Blood] [Mark of Pain] [Distracting Shot] [Charm Animal]

Variation [Spiteful Spirit] and [Reckless Haste] for [Weaken Knees] and [Meekness]

Discord/MM

[Discord] [Animate Bone Minions] [Death Nova] [Foul Feast] [Antidote Signet] [Distracting Shot] [Charm Animal] [Signet of Lost Souls]

Variation [Poisonous Bite] for [Putrid Flesh]

Discord Necro

[Discord] [Blood Ritual] [Putrid Bile] [Withering Aura] [Feral Lunge] [Distracting Shot] [Charm Animal] [Revive Animal]

[Revive Animal] and [Blood Ritual] are generally disabled and microed.

Hench are two healers, Herta and Zho (Interrupt Ranger).

To preempt some nits, I don't want to play melee human while grinding, prefer to tab and shoot instead of pathing around mobs. Yes, I know a P/W would likely be better, but I'm grinding a W not a P at the moment. Yes I know that pets don't do much damage, they are in the build to sop up damage, hexes and conditions, body block foes into clusters, bootstrap barbs, more death nova, etc. No, the pets don't die much and slow things down, if one or more dies, they are back up in ten seconds with no DP. No this is not a speed build, antithesis, a D Slash knocklock would be better undoubtedly. This build is designed for repetitive mindless grinding with the least tracking, micro, and button pushing on the human part.

I would advise a melee build to take advantage of the enchantment on of your discord necros has.

The human role is tab and shoot, not chase around and path around mobs... I like to talk on the phone and eat cheetos while grinding.

As far as the melee enchant, have just started using that one, but believe Olias casts it on mins or pets, a variation is the pet attack that bleeds the target.

Dshot on necs, seriously, WTF? Casterbows?

Minions.

The easy, brainless solution:
Just load up any Sabway variation, run into a mob, and go afk for as long as it takes the heros to fight.

Just WASD. Or you can move with the mouse and eliminate the keyboard factor completely.

since you're using foul feast, why not use [[infuse condition] instead of antidote?

These are horrible builds. I'm sorry, but they just are. I'd recommend that you check out their better variations on other threads in these forums.

Here's why I'm not just trolling:

1 -> Charm Animal on your bars is taking up a valuable skill slot, pets dying gives you downtime, and totally not worth the minor utility.
2 -> Warrior bar is sub par with poor damage output and bad elite
3-> Poor Synergy across the board. If you want Discord, take discord heros. If you want B/P, take B/P. What you have right now is very weak.

Oh, and very bad.

Minions > Pets =D
