Curse

Build can be found in the following link:

I've been tweaking this build for a while now and am now thinking of the final touches. However, I am still a bit doubtful about a couple details of the build:

1) Should the necro bring draw condition so that the wars can free up the touch slot for another skill? (Shock on axe and protectors on dragonslasher) I originally took it out so that the necro can focus on spamming and wars can get rid of blinds/cripple without yelling in vent.

2) Should the axe be dropped for another sword? (Bull's charge or charge?)

3) The migraine mes - is he really useful to the build seeing as how there is already an illusion spammer? Without him, wards and aegis will slow the pressure from the wars quite a bit though. (Alternatives for the migraine are also listed)

Any answers or additional suggestions for the build are greatly appreciated

What will you do if a team splits?

To address splits, i would probably drop remove hex on the E-drain mesmer and add distortion, that way he could at least kind of deal with a war or sin being sent back. maybe send the necro also since he degens and has scourge, thus making heal sig hurt.

Other than that, im not really a hex build guy so i couldnt tell you how effective it is.

If the enemy sends a mini-gank squad (lone sin) to the base, I usually send the flagger to deal with the problem. However, lately, many of the guilds we faced also threw in a crip anguish mesmer along wit the sin, and even with the aid of a mesmer this duo is fairly difficult to deal with (mes with draw conditions, probably carrying some interrupts and hex removal as well).

If I take out the remove hex for distortion, the hexes will be annoying. If I want to put both disotrtion and remove hex into the build, the question comes down to which other skill to drop.

EDIT: Extinguish may be dropped from the flagger in favour of purge signet(extinguish will need to be placed on the necro), freeing up remove hex from the mesmer and allowing him to bring distortion. However, this may still not save the flagger himself if spirit of failure does not kick in during the sin's combo.
