Can a Rt/Me do this, or do you need fast casting? I'm guessing that since your FC is at 4, it's not really needed.

i think it would depend on the way he achieved his attributes, like if he had to have a superior or major to get somewhere close, to those attributes then probaly, no. but if he had all minors or maybe 1 major, then i think it could be done with mesmer

If you haven't noticed this by now, try power leveling someone at the Troll Caves, and have them wait by Droks.. they will get nothing.

This is a great build, and when Nightfall gets released so you can control henchies again, leaving Monk Henchmen behind like that will be a common thing i will be doing for solo'ng. Good thinking.
You're 100% right. When the henchie's name turned grey in the party window and you don't see him on your map, you will get the same amount of experience and drops. I've done this many times and I'm 100% sure that I get the same drops while soloing. Again, you can leave the hench behind but it's just saver in case you die

Anyone kill the darknesses with this yet?
I suppose you can use the monk hench to help with the hexes, but there goes half your greens.

A quick suggestion - replace Ether Feast with Mend Body and Soul. MB&S only heals for 90 compared to the 105 of Ether Feast based on your attributes, but its cast and recharge is much better (i.e. 0.75 seconds versus 2 second cast; 3 second recharge versus 8 second recherage).

That sounds indeed as a better idea! But if I face the Darknesses (not yet but you never know) I'll need shatter hex and remove hex so then Ether Feast is the only healing skill but for now Mend Body and Soul sounds better.
Thanks!

I saw your skill setup and almost fell out of my chair laughing. I used a very similar build in RA (centered around Sig of Midnight, Spirit/Price of Failure, etc) recently and had been thinking about this.

Grats on finding even more things mesmers can do in PvE.

How do you make it so only on grasping is attacking you? If it's just aggroing and running away until you get just one, i'm screwed =/

You've to search for a spot where one grasping will block the others 'till he dies. I don't know if that's still possible since the new update..should try it out sometime

Hmm... would using Ebon Dust Aura from a Derv to blind an area at once work better than SoM? Earth also offers some defense skills and healing.

Fingers of Chaos-
Stance. (monster only) For 5 seconds, your attacks: cannot miss Rangers; remove enchantments from Monks; cause conditions on Warriors; interrupt Elementalists; and lose a hex when attacking Necromancers.

* This skill affects the character's primary profession as well their secondary profession. For example, a Monk Elementalist casting a spell would lose an enchantment and be interrupted when hit by a monster using this stance.
* Mesmers, Assassins, Ritualists, Dervishes, and Paragons are not directly affected by this skill. Therefore, if you don't rely on skills of your secondary profession, consider changing it to one of the above.
* Warriors sometimes bring Wild Blow to break the target's stances. However, it might be just as effective to wait five seconds for the stance to expire before cleansing the conditions from the warrior using Restore Condition, Draw Conditions, Purge Signet or Martyr.
* This skill currently only inflicts the crippled and blindness conditions on warriors.
* This skill only ignores evasion effects on rangers. A ranger can still block the attack and blind works as normal.
* Fingers of Chaos has an energy cost of 5 and a recharge time of 15 seconds.


They won't remove enchants because he is niether monk primary or secondary, but they will cause cripple/blind with their Fingers of Chaos.

Figure out a way to get around the blindness, and I think you can do it...come on, you are Witte after all.

EDIT: forgot that they will be blind as well...so yeah. Should only have to deal with blind for a short amount of time.

Why not look at Tombs from another angle?
Use a full party of heroes + henchies to get all the way to the end bosses and then make a build to solo them and take all the greens
