How unpopular would I become if I hauled a disease build into AB? Personally, I think it'd make for some interesting matches...

I bring disease into AB all the time. Teammembers are never upset, though I hardly play with PuGs, as they don't understand fragspike anyway.

And on my MM I like to bring tainted, but I hardly play him in AB.

I run disease sometimes too, though I'd never run it with pugs either. It works since most people keep running to each other and great way to weaken and break apart other teams for easy picking. Also a great way to slow down mobs. I suggest to run it with a healer though, since it hurts if you can't control the spread.

It would probably be good with an MM build that has [skill=text]Infuse Condition[/skill], since minions are unaffected by disease.

It's annoying since your hurting your own teams unless by some miracle they all are prepared to deal with it.

It doesn't matter. AB is so full of mending wammos and firestorm rangers and fast-cast flare mesmers that a good disease build would actually make AB a better place.

True that, true that.

In an evenly-matched fight, it's going to hurt them as much as you.

In a fight where they have the advantage.... wait, why are you fighting when they have the advantage? Go around them and cap.

In a fight where you have the advantage, you're going to dispose of your enemies in roughly the same amount of time, then waste all of your teammates' time recovering unnecessary health loss.

If you think Rotting Flesh is a useful skill in AB, please, cast it on me, I'll be glad to spread it back to you and all of your nearby teammates to show you how useful it is.

in an arena where everyone is running some form of self heal, mass degeneration generally won't work too well. however, if you bring it in addition to a heavy degeneration build (burning arrow ranger, for example), it can be the straw that breaks the camel's back.
