best hero set up for this - Guild Wars Forums

its bad to sin · Sep 10, 2009, 02:13 AM // 02:13

im a paragon running the imbagon build and i was wandering what would be the best hero setup for vanquishes. i know for the most part id have to change a few skills in certain areas but just wanded to find out a well rounded team to use.

1. i know about discord way but its kinda hard when u have no hexes in ur build to use.

2. used racway not a huge fan unless there is a diff varient that can be used.

3. yes i use consets in each area for the most part unless there just really easy.

so taking those 3 points into consideration and the fact im an imbagon id really like your help on this. thank you

Your heroes have a couple of hexes, just ping the target and you can't lose if you're an imbagon

Personally I use Sabway with my Imbagon and it seems to work pretty well in most area's I haven't really had any problems.

If possible and you have a friend with you discordway would be the way to go. Even with hero/hench you can put a hex/ condition on a necromancer. I normally do suffering/ shadow of fear and weaken armor/ enfeebling blood.

If with a friend they can run an ap nuker build and spam finish him to spike targets quicker.

I don't like sabway much any more. It is a decent build in it's own, but discordway has surpassed it for the most part. Especially if you can manage 6 heroes but even with 3 it's fine.

Searing flames ele in hardmode? Yeah cause they don't have higher al in most areas. Not to mention a single searing flames elementalist does pretty much horrible damage. Interrupts in hm are usually not as effective when you have an imbagon. You should be able to reduce the damage enough anyway from most spells.

Your setup is about the same as a discord setup as is. N/rt toss in discord as elite, n/mo minion bomber toss in discord as elite. All your missing on is a third necromancer for utilities such as enfeebling blood and a spare hex.

With an imbagon you (shouldn't) need cons really. As long as you have a protective spirit/ aegis on say a minion bomber if you care to take one. The damage should be manageable besides a few possible deaths.

You can run physicals with an orders dervish. You can run sabway in a somewhat balanced team. You can run discordway (works better if you have a friend). Just test out what works for you.

I usually vanquish or do harder areas with a partner and 6 discord heroes. If I can manage most damage with the 2 healers and 2 copies of protective spirit and aegis then I run an ap caller as well. Multiple pain inverters and finish hims can bring down foes quickly. If the area is actually somewhat hard then I can switch to an imbagon.

If you can't get a friend then most likely you might want to try a form of physical heroes/hench with orders dervish and whatever else. Or still stick with discord.

I don't like sabway personally because you focus on the damage from spiteful spirit as your main "high damage hero". I know you add other damage such as splinter weapon and what not. But they will ss what your attacking which will soon die usually. So I don't know, I don't like sabway any more.

if you can get a buddy to go with you I would try that. even without a buddy, running the build without the resto rits and second necro works fairly well, if you can prevent damage. Havent tried the 1 man version yet, but it might work also

IronSheik · Sep 10, 2009, 06:09 AM // 06:09

Modified Racway for para.

**Marty Silverblade** · Sep 10, 2009, 06:51 AM // 06:51

ArkFenway > Discord on physicals. Also, if you need consets for a large majority of areas you're doing something seriously seriously wrong.

thank you every1 for the help. and its not that i need consets it just makes all the areas much easier

*Darcy* · Sep 10, 2009, 11:13 AM // 11:13

As Marty & Fred said, Arkfenway works well with physicals. Here is a link to the 1-man Spiritway build, which i am using with my warrior. If you do not have two rit heroes, then you can substitute a ranger to run the SoS build, putting at least 9pts in Expertise.

well donno bout para but my SY warrior ran sabway and it rolled quite nicely you could try that

Painbringer · Sep 10, 2009, 02:03 PM // 14:03

For something new try this

Necro/rit healer

rit (or necro) spirit pooper (need to micro up until the attack happens then ok on own)

necro/rit minion bomber.

More targets at once the more occupied the enemy is and easier to dispatch of. But you will sacrifice speed.
