nah i want to see the proper version:

3 monks, 2 healer 1 prot
1 wa/mo..... droks runner, charge, sprint, balanced, etc fast paced movement.
4 el/mo, with zealots spamming draw condition through the warrior with renewal. I just havent seen this, but the effect is *identical* to balth aura stacking, which was so powerful it was nerfed. Have some wards, then camp in em healing etc, whilst the runner buffs al and speed, then runs into the enemy. maybe he could zealots spam watch yourself as well if he gets the chance to stop moving. 200dps no problems, sustained.

since the aura nerf all ive seen is 5 el/mo try and stand close to a monk, and get

when he walks to the left.

I can see PvE groups this month spamming "Anythign BUT a Monk needed for mission" SOoo many Mo/Ws around the early stages at the moment

Anything to do with UW solo builds you think?

Went into tombs about 6 or 7 times last night, and saw an AWFUL lot of Balthazar's Aura and other smiting - more than I saw of spirits and spikers. So there's my prediction: smiting teams.

8 people all taking Mesmer as their secondary and running Energy Drain.

oh wait.

GvGs seem to have alot of variety, but not Tombs. Tombs is just plain dead.

NR owns smiting, so spirit spam > smiting.

manga · Aug 03, 2005, 01:14 AM // 01:14

Yea spirit spam owns all until they make NR elite

Phades · Aug 03, 2005, 01:55 AM // 01:55

Going to take a bit more than making NR eliete to make that skill balanced or avoid creating another imbalance elsewhere.

I was a lifebond/barrier prot monk and the other monk was a healer with healing seed and a bunch of basic heals. They ALL went for one of us monks first and we won so easily, cause we were all taking barely any damage. All the warriors were running "Watch Yourself" and "Fear Me" and a whole lot of pure damage attacks. We eventually lost to a korean team running spirits. It was the first time I saw nature's renewal, but before I had read the description, I thought they were just massive enchant removal *sniff*

when you die in UO you show up as a grey hooded-robed ghost. Your speech shows up as o's and O's to others unless they have the spiritspeak skill.

The O oo O ooO oo O reference is from UO. I used to play that game a lot. When you died you would become a ghost and when you tried to talk to "living" people all your text would come out as Oooo OOoo Oooo oO unless you used some like spirit speak skill.

Getting back on subject, I think the current flavor of the week is a healing spring/ranger build. Basically you get 8 rangers (no monks) and have a few of them spamming Healing Spring with the rest attacking. Seems like it would would but from what I've seen, it really doesn't. I faced two of them today in tombs; unfortunately we were running some fairly intense interupts so it ruined them.

Another interesting build I saw today was a healing ball/pets group. Basically there was a group with all ranger primary/secondary and they all had pets - the players stuck together in a healing ball spamming Heal Area and such while they sent their pets out to attack. Unfortunately for us, we faced them on an Altar round and they captured it before we realised what they were doing. We were able to take their ghost down but we couldn't get ours up there (they were basically bodyblocking the altar) to capture before they ressed theirs. Quite annoying, but it worked.

LOL that's going to be the new FotM you think? Did you remember any of the team names? If none of them were called The Pet Build, I'm going to be sad. lol

miskav · Aug 03, 2005, 10:17 AM // 10:17

Well... I dont know if this will work... But neway here goes:
Char: ME/R
Skills: Mantra of flame
Greater Conflagration {E}
Would that work?

Haha, actually I think it's just going to be more of a flavor of the week - it seems they would have a lot of weaknesses so I doubt it would turn into something like what spirit builds are now.
