o_O? That's a new one on me. Anyone know what that is??

Iceciro · Jul 26, 2005, 12:59 AM // 00:59

No clue, but I'd like to know.

Elite · Jul 26, 2005, 01:15 AM // 01:15

Its a certain type of build that allows for allot of healing, thats all I can say as I read about it a while ago and dont remember....I think its quite hard to pull off...cant quite remember though.

no idea...

If it is a build It might be an elementalist/monk that uses only energy storage and healing prayers?

A high level protection monk puts life bond on everyone, then a high level healing seed is put on the protection monk so when the damage is redirected to the pro monk, healing seed goes off. If something was going to do 66 damage to anyone in the party, it would be canceled out by a 16 bond + 16 seed. The ball part is that everyone stays in a small group so that the healing seed affects everyone.

It's when a few monks, as well as the rest of the party form together in a very tight "ball" formation, casting Healing Seed and other buffs on each other to make themselves invincible. Without good enchantment removal, there's pretty much no way to kill a good team while using this strategy.

One good mesmer and it's toast!

Wonder how many other builds that can be said of... ONE GOOD MESMER AND FOOOOM. Lol. Also, the necro healing effectiveness reducers would work too.

Zilm:
Nope it only dies to NR really. It can be killed with a team specificaly made to take it out (in a situation were NR doesn't exist) but 1 mesmer would't be doing it.

Do a search before asking a question. You might just be surprised that someone else beat you to the topic.
