Anyone have a Vampiric Spirit PvP build for say random or team areana. I am working on something an my last VS build was on my comp i just wiped. Any and all would be helpful. TY

well you can't really go wrong with a life stealing build based around the dmv and life stealing of vs. Try some n/rt action with pwk, vs, and vamp skills

enough with the freekin' acronyms... oh my gawd, no one knows what the hell you're talkin about Truegen... I need a freekin' text book of Guild Wars acronyms or something... Jesus!

what the hell is dmv?
what the hell is pwk?
I am guessing vs is vampiric spirit but who knows? Truegen is a fricken psycho so he could mean anything

i say just use vs, ss, vg, atb, mbas, l, bwm, fomf

hope that helps... yea right!

Life stealing skills are of no real interest. They deal pathetic damage for what they cost and the healing is of little note. Blood magic is weak, particularly in a PvP environment and only effective if 6 or 7 people are spamming the same skills - which leads to the bad reputation of Bloodspike.

Otherwise, just throw together some blood magic skills that look as though they might work together.
[Vampiric Spirit] has some nice effects but the damage is pathetic.
[Shadow Strike] and its duplicate can make a nice opening skill, but lose their effect after a while.
[Blood Drinker] is largely ruined by a 2 sec casting time, but works nicely with [Angorodon's Gaze]
[Vampiric Gaze] is a fairly basic and often staple skill, but now has a stupid recharge.
[Jaundiced Gaze] is similar to Vampiric Gaze, but with a lower recharge and a hefty sacrifice.
[Blood of the Aggressor] is more sensible, it does fair damage for the cost and half the time the sacrifice is made up for with life steal.
[Dark Pact] is shite - don't bring it. Unless you're going for some gimmick thing involving [Grenth's Balance] or [Ravenous Gaze], which are also fairly pointless.
[Life Siphon] is... meh. Not really worth a 2 second cast and 10 energy for a mere 3 regen and 3 degen on your target.
[Awaken the Blood] - if you have room and can't think of anything else you'd want to bring, bring this. Otherwise, don't knock yourself out trying to squeeze it in. The increase in damage is marginal at best and will most often be removed by other players.
[Cultist's Fervor] - I havn't tried it yet, but it may help with the energy problems faced by spamming the same skills over and over again. It does take up your elite slot though.

[Spoil Victor] is a bit special - very powerful, but use Curses with it instead if you're going to use it.

Who the hell are you, and who the hell do you think you are?

[Vampiric Gaze] is nice.
And Truegen, you can make acronym's for anything. But since you made those up, you might want to explain what they mean.
Who do you think you are?
pfft

not in ra. and neither is [shadow strike] really. [awaken the blood] is even worse.

[foul feast] is a must, no matter what.
i recommend [angorodon's gaze] and [strip enchantment] to go along with it.
the rest utility from curses line or secondary profession (i recommend n/rt). but if u really want more offense, than stick [blood of the aggressor] on there.

PwK stands for [protective was kaolai] which is a very good skill.
