Hey guys, I saw a couple of threads along a similar vein, but I'm proposing a slight variation and was wondering if it'd be worthwhile

[skill]Fragility[/skill][skill]Weaken Armor[/skill][skill]Virulence[/skill][skill]Epidemic[/skill][skill]Hypochondria[/skill][skill]Necrosis[/skill][skill]Signet Of Lost Souls[/skill][skill]Resurrection Signet[/skill]

Death Magic - 10 + 1 + 1
Soul Reaping - 10 + 1

Cast fragility on target, then enfeeble to allow casting of virulence. Use epidemic, then hypochondria, then epidemic again to trigger mass fragility whilst leaving the rest of the mob under the conditions and transferring conditions back to target to allow use of necrosis. Signet of Lost Souls for energy and heatlh, and repeat when virulence/hypochondria is recharged.

I'm working on the principle that fragility works every time a different condition is applied/recovered from, not just when the target suffers a condition. So, for virulence the target would suffer 17 for weakness, 17 for disease and 17 for poison. I chose Weaken Armor instead of something like enfeeble as to get the damage for weakness in virulence

what do you think?

Fragility only works when it is applied or removed, so doing that won't really do much in damage.

fair enough then

I though epidemic would count as removal, and hypochondria would count as applying

Pretty sure Epidemic just transfers the conditions to adjacent foes and keeps it on the original target instead of removing it. Either way, the way this works, you won't do much damage. Nice try though.

hypocondria counts for applying if its a new condition, i think.

However, since epidemic spreads the conditions, not removes them condria wont do anything useful

Hypochondria used to work with fragility but it was hugely broken and abused in GvG. I've also heard that A.net people had a thought about banning/removing points from hypochondria abusers!

And this all happened like 1½ years ago~~

Alas, like stated above, used to be a pretty decent combo, but due to abuse it got smacked by the nerf bat due to people abusing the skill >_<.
