I'm actually playing Mo/Me in PVP b/c those are the 2 classes i'm most familiar with in PvE . I'm just wondering Pacifism would work well on ranger like it did on warrior? And also i dont really understand the concept of divine favor ... is div give you 3 extra heal for each lvl of div? is it more profitable with Divine energy mangament or inspiration ... Since i like protection more than healing, it would work well with blessed signet ... is essence bond good too?

Easier to see if i write the build down
11 div
10 prot
10 heal

Peace and Harmonry
Pacifism
healing breeze
vigorous spirit
reversal of fortune
shielding hands
mend ailment
rez sig

and i realize this build only work well when i'm not dying ... cause as soon i took the dmg i cant heal myself fast enough ... and yes i'll work hard on unlocking skills in PvE ... so i guess faction is use to unlooking runes ...

Btw what is a good team for TA ... we have a Mo/Me, W/N, R/Me ... which class should be good for 4th spot?

the best builds actually incorporate skills from their secondary classes. Mo/Me is a very solid combo, just take a closer look at the mesmer skills that can help you as a monk, pick either healing or protection and invest points in the mesmer attribute line.
For a more specific hint, drop the healing, use divine boon, and check out some skills in the inspiration attribute using minor runes for a 12-prot 12-divine 10-inspiration setup.
For an overall 4v4 team my favorite setup is: one monk, one warrior with another class that will work to kill someone fast, and another class that that can shutdown/kill an offhand target solo.

my only warning is dont spread your atts too thin..... that is a mistake i made with my first character and i never lasted in pvp..... so i would stick with maybe two or three att areas and change as needed..... you can always change back or try something new as you have unlimited refunds now......

Good healers, people who can keep themselves alive, can totally dominate LA. Also, Mesmers and Necros are really much better in PvP, IMO.

I'd suggest making a Necro and wreak some havoc with Curses and Blood. The dumb groups save the Necros for last so you'll have things easier.

If you want to be a Monk, that's a heavy load, but if you look around you can probably find a good PvP build.

Final note, tanking Monks can make a team very powerful, as the other team will waste all of their mana and time on an indestructable target, while your team takes them apart.

Hi all.
I'm target caller / not target caller.

That's it.

Why? Cause the minimap and ctrl+click will be FASTER than anything you can say or do on a mic or keyboard. Plain and simple... Why can't we all do this? Cause nobody's as smart as the Koreans...

Haha, gj! :P
