Hm as an old FhS member I'll believe you. Do you spike without teleporting as well? like, simply RUNNING to them? cuz a spike with 45sec recharge doesn't look that effective to me xD. Oh well guess it's possible since they're KD'd anyway
Oh before I forget, does your spike have attributes?

I'm still insisting that warder is not necessary for this build (tested many times, so believe me it works just fine, maybe it has a little difficulties at caping in HoH becuase all ranger interrupts/ distraction mesmers roaming around, but overall it is made for fame farm - 6,7 wins in a row is normal for it )

and it's good to have seocndary galer as well (mo/e with gale, and maybe ride the lightning to assist at least with 1 spike.) becuase if they kill your ele, match is about to end soon.
If they can surround the enemy, or get to them quickly. Knockdown they do 1,100 damage without they do 550 that's a decent spike, able to take down anything using a superior rune.

yep while death's charge is recharging it is as simple as just running up to them and spike, as long as the spike is perfect the infuser won't be able to do anything and if he does get an infuse in the after spike basicly always get the target down.

hehe i still say you don't need AoD for that spike. Waste of elite
but hey that's just me.
and about giving tips about this build... I've done it many many times so i know what dmg it can do when done properly and there is absolutely no need for wards. Becuase if u run / port all the time you wont stay much in wards aye?

I can't belive you said this for one reson, don't you remember our fight in courtyard ([FhS] vs [MYTH]) one of the main resons we beat you is because our ele stayed in ward of stability and we quickly spiked out yours which ward of stability would have saved.

I started running this spike last weekend (modded of course)-- It's very, very fun. Gotta easily be one of the most lethal 6v6 spikes.

Our 3 ele, 3 monk, mind shock spike got owned by that build, but we were too slow to realise we had 20 seconds to make our own spike after we resed one.

heh just owned 3 groups of trying doing it. 4 assasin ftw. Just kill the ele and that's it. I dont see how it's not possible not to heal 1 member at 5 monks (even if u are using AoD :P), but i managed to kill that guy 3 times alone.(and yea he had some wards - 16 interupts build ownz it ). But i love the concept of e/r with frozen soil, i really do.

if u know how the build works it's not hard to beat it. If u dont - gg most of the time.

This isnt a new spike. Ive Seen Exiled Templars [ExiT] running this all the time. They were running it in 8v8 and the double fame 6v6 weekend, and they're still using it now.....so it isnt anything new.

(at 15 smiting), wich is 110 damage per skill, multiply by 5, and then by 2 (because you have both holy strike AND stone soul strike), wich comes to 1100 damage in less than 2 or 3 seconds.
This is most likely the fastest spike in a 6man team, and you can even do it when youre 1 man down (given it isnt the ele).

Mo/A (3 times)
Aura of Displacement
Holy Strike
Stonesoul Strike
Heal area
Heal other/infuse health
Healing seed
Holy veil
Res sig

Mo/A (2 times)
Aura of Displacement
Holy Strike
Stonesoul Strike
RoF
Mend Condition
Aegis
[Free Slot]

E/X
Gale
Glyph of energy (e)
Ward against melee
Ward against foes
Ward of stability
Stoning/other direct damage skill not causing exhaustion
res sig
[free slots]
I saw this build last night.

Ive been against it a couple days ago, when i was holding halls (7 times in a row yay). They were pretty good at it but we managed to interupt the ele and KD him, then we slowly killed their team. They did get our ghost at the first try though

Some dont, and the discussion keeps going on about the use of AoD. If you do not like it/dont know why to use it, feel free to mod it and leave it out. Just remember a monk has paper armor.

IRT stemnin: If they rely on AoD for spiking, you have 20 seconds. Groups with brains will continue spiking without AoD if it is recharging, though

Have you read the skill description?

Stonesoul Strike:
Touched target foe takes 10...46 holy damage. If knocked down, your target takes an additional 10...46 holy damage.

Without gale, and with only 4 spikers, even at 16 smite (which you shouldn't be running), the spike will do 464 dmg, not enough to kill ... anything. GL running that. What's going to be your after-after spike? Wanding?
