Well that explains why one wammo I saw had protective spirit. Now to figure out why one had Air Attunement...

Maybe he thinks it will help him spam shock more? Even though it won't help thats the only thing I can think of unless hes spamming BF or LOrb...

Came up against a wammo yesterday who has a different trick up his sleeve. Rather than the usual Mending / Healing Breeze combo he had the following:

[skill]Signet of Judgment[/skill][skill]Bane Signet[/skill][wiki]Castigation Signet[/wiki][skill]Signet of Rage[/skill][skill]Enraging Charge[/skill][wiki]Symbolic Strike[/wiki]

I wish I'd found out what his last two skills were...

Comparing to the general intelligence of AB, that would actually work pretty well. Everyone'd gank the monk, and no one would pay attention to the ripostes.

Seen a few terratanks here and there.

Saw a warrior come charging at me (monk), to then use Dolyak signet when he reaches me. I kited...

Seen a few signet of judgement assassins. Using some weird combo of skills they keep you on your butt for a long time, but they can't do any form of damage, so you just lie there...

I wouldn't say trappers are horrible in AB, but they're certainly not the best choice. Nevertheless, I've seen plenty of 'em, often camping the teleports out of enemy bases.

The touch rangers - they can't kill anything, even with their 1337 armour and enchantment ignoring spammable damage, they never get me to the danger-zone.

There, that's a few I saw.

Terratanks can actually be good if the opponent is dumb enough to try to kill it without enchant removal/interrupt. Otherwise it is useless, especially stone dagger wtf.

/signed. The touch ranger is the most overrated build in AB. Most of the time a bit of common sense will get you out of this situation.

You must have had a monk or something to prot you 'cause if played well this build kill stuff pretty quickly

I think the worst build i've seen is a frenzied defense monk without PS (or SB at least). I've seen bad builds with bad skills, but this makes absoluetly no sense

llsektorll · Apr 04, 2008, 05:14 PM // 17:14

1. fire storm ele... haha when will idiot AB eles learn all you need to do to wipe out shrine in less than 5s is use SH+Rodgorts Invocation

2. Starburst eles with no speedbuff..... seriously wtf?

3. Smite monks in AB

4. Tank warrior that does no damage and brings glads defense

5. this skill on monks bar [skill]healing breeze[/skill] HAHAHA PHAIL

Ekelon · Apr 04, 2008, 05:15 PM // 17:15

1. Mo/W with Frenzy, Sever Artery, Gash, Heal Breeze, Prot Spirit.

Definitely not the best build, but if he had one more signet equipped, having a 4 adrenaline +50 damage attack isn't all that bad.

shironos · Apr 04, 2008, 10:49 PM // 22:49

1. HH Wammo
2. MM Assassin
3. Sin with 8 lead attacks
4. Frenzy-Conjure Ele Wander whatever you wanna call it
5.Terratank

Touch rangers have kind of fallen out of favor. All of the button mashers moved on to Shadow Prison assassins, now that those got nerfed I think they're all playing fire eles.

haha, touch rangers... hardly ever see them anymore.

One has to wonder why Anet supported them (instead of fixing Expertise to match its description, they changed the description.)

if you want passive defense use prot. healing is for healing not for "ok lets cast this skill and then wait 5 secs oh look it only took 5 seconds for a 70 hp heal!"

Worst build by far is Flashing Blades... not a terrible skill but it has no place in PvP whatsoever, just like Gladiator's Defense.

Or if he had FGJ! every 2 hits would end up being a +40 damage, at a double adren gain and your set.

I've seen Flashing Blades on a warrior primary.

Still not the dumbest thing I've ever seen in ABs, though. The Choking Gas warrior was amusing too.

Yep, and now we have Mending Touch and R/Ds. :facepalm:

If a player needs a small amount of healing, it's an overheal that's overpriced.
If they're missing a lot of health, they probably need to get health back faster than Healing Breeze is going to provide it.
If the player is taking continuous damage, you use prot.

That's why Healing Breeze is bad.
