Curse

Hey!
I was bored again today and had a funny Idea for my Mesmer. Well the build isn't very groundbreaking, as it is just a mesmer version of the Sin Solo Build but it's very fun and espacially great in Hardmode.

I'll start with the solo Build

http://gw.gamewikis.org/wiki/Tomb_of_the_Primeval_Kings

The Solo Build:

Me/A

Attributes:
Domination 11 + 3 +1
Inspiration 4+ 1
Shadow Arts: 12

Armor:
Insignia: +Energy is best

Equipment:
Axe/Sword with +5 Energy and 20% enchantments
+12e on Domination

Skills:
[skill]Empathy[/skill][skill]Energy Burn[/skill][skill]Wastrel's Worry[/skill][skill]Deadly Paradox[/skill][skill]Arcane Echo[/skill][skill]Shadow Form[/skill][skill]Spirit of Failure[/skill][skill]Shadow of Haste[/skill]

Template Code:
OQdUI2x4lPL84SozagKIDwQoDA

I don't have many Pictures of the Builds but it is freaking easy. Just use Deadly Paradoxon -> Arcane Echo->Shadow Form move a few steps to the Mobs and use SoH in a safe distance.
Then cast Spirit of Failure on the a Monster next to you and use the hexes to kill it.

I've only cleared Stage 1 with it so far because it just took me too long (you can only kill 1 Monster per SF round, sometimes 2)

But I know the uw² and it should be doable on the rest of it (not sure about worms or the bosses yet ^^). I don't think we'll ever know cause I couldn't to this for ~12 hours >.<

As this Build can only kill 1 Mob each round I decided to forget soloing and take a hero with me.

The Heroway Build:

Me/A

Attributes:
Domination 11 + 3 +1
Inspiration 4+ 1
Shadow Arts: 12

Armor:
Insignia: +Energy is best

Equipment:
Axe/Sword with +5 Energy and 20% enchantments
+12e on Domination

Skills:
[skill]Empathy[/skill][skill]Energy Burn[/skill][skill]Wastrel's Worry[/skill][skill]Deadly Paradox[/skill][skill]Arcane Echo[/skill][skill]Shadow Form[/skill][skill]Spirit of Failure[/skill][skill]Recall[/skill]

Template Code:
OQdUI2x4lPL84SozagKIDwQoDA

Mo/N

Attributes:
Blood Magic 12

Armor:
Insignia: -doesn't madder-

Equipment:

nice, good job

you might want to fix the skill thing cuz the skills aren't showing up, just the words. You also put the same thing in there twice, at the beginning and end of the solo build(unless you meant to do that)

I really wanna try the heroway one out, it looks like fun, I'm kinda sick of my ele and sin doing it. I need variety

And of course, another good build for mesmers from you! I'm happy I made a new mesmer!

distilledwill · Aug 05, 2007, 11:54 PM // 23:54

nice variation on the shadow form eles you see in that area atm.
ps. the skill is called Deadly Paradox.

Your build is kinda too slow, since you can only kill 1-2 foes per SF round.

A/Me or the E/A build might be the better choice to solo TOPK, they kill 2x+ faster, hence take less time to complete TOPK.

I managed to complete TOPK with the A/Me build.

Or you might wanna try illusion Me/A with visages, together with a R/Mo with Famine.

The.D0pefish · Aug 06, 2007, 04:50 AM // 04:50

yeah the solo build is very slow.
But the heroway build will kill 3 Mobs each round of SF. And AfaiK normal A/Me or E/A don't run uw² in HM (do they o_O).
This Build is even faster in HM than in nm.
You only need one round of Empathy, 1 Energy Burn and 3+ Wastrel's Worry.
I Completed stage 1 in 34 Minutes.
I don't think you can be under 25 Minutes with A/Me or E/A in HM

Abedeus · Aug 07, 2007, 04:47 PM // 16:47

We DO run it in Hard Mode. And we are able to complete stage 1 (Im talking about E/A) in 25 minutes, without hero. Of course, that depends if you are pr0 or new to this, I've seen a guy that can solo in 20 minutes... But anyway, wont soloing another stage be profitable? Or only stage 1 and repeat?

There's more Terrorweb Dryders and Banished Dream Riders than in the first stage. So I'd go and kill them in stage 2.

mesmers are even better farmers then dervishes

Abedeus · Aug 18, 2007, 11:25 AM // 11:25

Hmm... I heard that there is a mesmer build, that can farm in FoW with Shadow Form. Is that true? I can farm with W/Mo, R/Me, or even Rt/R, but I wanted to farm with a mesmer a bit. It's more challenging ;d

BogusDude · Dec 11, 2008, 12:58 PM // 12:58

I'm using this build with my mesmer in HM, i'll try put a video together for the weekend

With the last update, I think these builds don't work any more.
