I'm having such a hard time with these guys! I'm doing Ebon Van Guard Dungeon full of these guys and they take forever to dispatch! lol

I've been trying to use D-Shot and Savage shot but when there is more then 1 prophet it's pointless. I've also tried to get around them but the hexes get me lol

Any tips or helpful advice?

If you need mass interrupts go for [Choking Gas][Practised Stance] and an IAS like [Flurry].

I've always found AoE damage very useful against Charr since they like to clump up nicely. Add in Ebon Battle Standard of Honor and it's goodnight.

I've never found the Prophets to be much of a problem to be honest. Their healing is consistent but not very potent, and they can't heal themselves very well. Overwhelm their healing capability by using AoE so they have to split their attention between themselves and their team. They can't keep up with the damage.

The archers are far worse.

BHA/Epidemic and Cynn. She likes Meteor Shower.

Knock down, daze, pressure, AoE, etc. Broad Head Arrow if you are a ranger. Spiking them works, too.

Thanks for all the adive

I'll go for using the BHA/epidemic and Cynn first and if I fail I'll work on the other suggestions.

I think that this thread belongs to EotN Explorers' forum ... in any case, most of the time Charr Prophets are accompanied by a Dominator which you should kill first since it's the hard rezzer. Thus, daze any Prophet(s) while killing the Dominator and you should be fine.

If you are a ranger, bring Frozen Soil, kill the Prophets with Broadhead Arrow + Vanguard Sin Support or some other form of knockdown (YMLAD isnt as much damage as sin support but it works in a pinch

) and then go nuts.

Personally I've always found the charr in EOTN to be a joke (excluding full ranger groups). They always bunch up so nicely that they're just asking for aoe to be abused. Bring splinter, ar, a fire and an earth nuker and you'll walk right through them. (I normally run ES myself for some sexy aoe kd)

I run Sab/Discord heroes and I rarely have issues with Prophets because the minions' explosions overpower them, and the spikey damage of Discord is so strong. Ebon Vanguard Assassin Support and Sniper Support are both great anti-Charr tools.

I have more of a problem with the rangers with Ignite Arrows and interrupts, and the mesmers with Resurrection Chant and Power Block.

I find Dominators and Wardkeepers to be considerably more annoying. Seekers (?) I would consider troubling as well if you have any heroes or henches in your party, because the AI just goes to an evasive frenzy if the Charr start raining explosive arrows, regardless of how strong those explosions are.

Its like most places with monks - when they hit hm they seem to either be almost indestructable with endless energy or complete idiots - mostly the first sadly.
I hate specially woh monks in hm - 1 can be bad enough but get 2 and you may just as well walk away.
Sometimes tho suicidal you can target the monks an force team ( if h/h) to waste that monk but often its not an option.
Interupts , scourge healing on monk , err backfire , ss .
Infact use ebon sniper or ebon assassin and target the monks , im sure the ebon sin will keep monks busy for a bit.

I love dropping [Pain Inverter] on those stupid rangers. 2 arrows into a crowd and they are dead.

The problems are when there are more than 6-7 rangers it gets overwhelming

EDIT: is bb code broken or am i doing it wrong.

Sarevok Thordin · May 28, 2009, 01:20 PM // 13:20

Shouldn't this be in EoTN explorer?

If I had the power to move it over to that board I would.

If you run monk heroes, take two mesmer interrupts on their skill bars.

TheodenKing · May 28, 2009, 02:20 PM // 14:20

Frozen Soil is a great tool for rangers against those Charr mobs.
Also, I've never found the prophets to be the key to those groups. I've had success by taking out the Dominators first in most situations. This will cause the prophets to expend much of their energy early, then when you switch targets, they have less left to heal themselves, and the dominator is no longer around to rez the prophets when you kill them.

bring gwen. and if your playing an ele, go water magic.

imnotyourmother · May 28, 2009, 02:31 PM // 14:31

Sniper support, Pain Inverter and Ebon Vanguard Assassin should finish it off very very fast.
