I am very bad at figuring out builds and setups for my heroes. I can obtain them all because I have all campagins but I don't have them all yet. I checked pvxwiki but I can never find a good build. Please tell me 3 heroes I can use in general play and what their builds can be.

Builds utilizing three necromancers is a common favourite, there is a fair amount of discussion regarding the topic here:

OMG!!11
That was SOOOOO cute!
^.^

Anyway - the big question really is - are your hero builds so bad that you are constantly failing or just bad so that things aren't running as smooth as you think they should?
If you are constantly failing - there isn't much to be done. Grab one of the fail-proof trinities (Discord, Sabway, Racthoh's physicals) and have fun.
If on the other hand things just aren't running as smooth as you'd hope them to - I would suggest to check these forums a bit for suggestions on what skills (or builds) heroes are good with and which they aren't. Then comes the fun part of experimenting. Test out the best options and see what works best for you - based on the character, his build and the heroes you need or want to use.

Best thing, that's if you want to learn to make your builds, would be to post what you are using right now/combination of heroes you like (or would like) to use (including henchmen you take along) and we will give you pointers.

Super Igor · Oct 30, 2008, 01:12 PM // 13:12

depends on your pirmary profession, but generaly I would say discordway or sab's because they are easier to set up than rac's.

Thats either

I didn't even know you needed Prophecies to get Olias. I always thought Nightfall and Eye of The North was all you needed to get all the heroes.

The OP did say he can get all of them, but then he also only mentioned that he had Nightfall and Eye of The North and nothing about the other campaigns.

Since he didn't say what his profession was, if he was a Paragon, he could go Paraway if 3 Necros don't work for him.

From Nightfall you need to travel to Lion's Arch to start the quest to get Olias and you need to travel to Kaineng Center to start the quest to get Zenmai. So you need both Prophecies and Factions to get a full set of heroes.

Oh wow lol. Never knew that since I have all campaigns, I guess I just never really paid too much attention to that.

zwei2stein · Oct 30, 2008, 03:30 PM // 15:30

Sabway/Discord way is not option for him anyway as he does not not have Factions and prophecies so he would miss key skills.

IMHO, 3xSF ele goes long way towards making normal mode easy and is easy to put together for him.

The link that Ratchy provided explains what Sabway is.
http://www.guildwarsguru.com/forum/s...php?t=10292641
(It's also stickied at the top of the page.)

Discord is similar.
And we talked about it a BIT here:
http://www.guildwarsguru.com/forum/s...php?t=10329132
More importantly - it also provides a link to the PvX Discord build.

I use this for Discord:

Discord 1.
1.discord
2.enfeebling blood
3.weaken armor
4.suffering
5.shadow of fear
6.rip enchantment
7.signet of lost souls
8.death pact signet

Discord 2.
1.discord
2.putrid bile
3.animate bone minions
4.death nova
5.signet of lost souls
6.dwayna's sorrow
7.protective spirit
8.cure hex

Discord 3.
1.discord
2.protective was kaolai
3.weapon of warding
4.spirit light
5.mend body and soul
6.signet of lost souls
7.life
8.flesh of my flesh

Does the job really well, enough healing/hexes though you scrubs would probably cry for more spirits or conditions or hexes or whatever.
