So basically in that above link, there's a build for a 105 hp sin.
Now what I'm having a problem with is the attributes and armor section. They totally confuse me. Starting in the attribute section, I'm assuming the first numbers (not the +3 or +1) are the points you get from using ability points. But when I tried it, I only have enough AP for 8,8,8,8,8 not 8,8,8,10,10. Along with that, the armor and rune part just confuses me. I sorta tried to interpret it, and I guess I bought 1 Superior Dagger Mastery Rune and 1 Superior Critical Strike Rune and equipped them. I also have a blade mask. My stats are now at 8,8,8,8+3+1,8+3 with health at 330.

I need help on interpreting this... I tried out this build with what I have so far and I like it... And if it matters, I only have Prophecies and Factions.

1+3 means +1 attribute helm/hat and the +3 means using a superior rune

To get your health down to 105 you'll have to use more superior runes to drop your health.

Edit: He could have meant that he has 10 total attribute points in the attribute including the +3 superior rune. He doesnt really give a good description.

Well I already have 2 superior runes (dag and critic) on and the bladed mask. So I understand that part. But my health is still not at 105 and my attributes aren't at 10+3+1 and 10+3, but rather 8+3+1 and 8+3. And what's the point of adding more superior runes when it doesn't stack?

to lower health

If you didn't do the Shing Jea Island missions, then you don't have all your attribute points.

Sorry, as take me said, the quests supply the points.

If you don't remember, then take all points out of your attributes and see if you have a total of 200 available.

take_me · Jun 11, 2008, 09:05 PM // 21:05

It's not supposed to stack. The Runes are only used to lower your health.

And you are probably missing the Attribute Point quests in Factions if you dont have enough^^

It is true that the attribute points will not stack but the health loss will.

Take a look at the 55 monk build you use 5 superior runes to get your health to 105 then use a focus to drop it another 50 points.

it doesnt matter what attribute you pick you're just using them to lower your health.

Rhapsody in Bleu · Jun 12, 2008, 05:27 AM // 05:27

Ohhh... I see... Thank you everybody! But 1 more question: Why is lowering health good?

EDIT: I got 200 ap now, but that's only 15 more than I had before. The most I can get is 8,8,8,9+3+1,8+3. That's only 1 more up...

EDIT2: If I take away all of my Smiting points, i can get 8,8,10+3+1,10+3. But his guide says to have 8 smiting... Ahhh im in a bind

he reason you have lower health is so when you get hit with prot spirit you'll take less damage and you make that low enough that you can outheal with no problem which mending is used to outheal the damage youll take under prot spirit. hope that helps. i cant get my ap up to his either he must have mistyped it somehow

OP, you are correct, there is no way to get a point spread of 8-8-8-10-10 as a base. http://guildwars.wikia.com/wiki/Attr...ive_attributes
