Curse

I've been pugging for a while now. I've met some amazing players, and some French players. The way they put skills together makes you wonder how they got to DoA (hell, how they got through Normal Mode Chahbek village) in the first place.

The aim here is to compile the shittiest builds you have seen a warrior from a PUG run. Don't try and fake them, I can spot them a mile off.

I'lll start.

Disclaimer: The identities of these builders have been preserved to save them from constant ridicule. However, if you stand in the latest Zaishen Mission outpost long enough, THEY will find you.

He was going for a very ambitious "Tank AND Spank" hybrid. Genius, really.

You know, I'm always afraid I'm going to see my build on a thread like this one of these days. I'm very sensitive about my build...lol

Your pretty right about this.. I've had several warriors in my team with these kind of builds. I even saw a warrior with black obsidian + chaos gloves + tormented shield (Not that these do make sense..) using such a build with elementalist (fire)skills.
First of all, how did they ever manage to get enough money to buy such stuff? Secondly, how did they manage to get trough the whole game. And not even talking about their heroes. Another thing is W/R with a pet of level 11, while in a zaishen HM like Gate of Madness or a zaishen vanquish.

Anyways it's not only warriors. The worst times are when your pugging for a ZV/ZM looking for 2 healers. After 30 minutes of searching you get a monk with even worse builds than those mentioned above. :P

It's also awesome to see how many times you see those kind of builds in Jade Quarry. :P Sins with RoJ, warriors with AotL, monks with sin skills, rangers bringing WoH. IMO those aren't very useful, but that's just my opinion. ^^

Hmm, random PvP is a beast of its own. You can't count on anything so I kind of understand why some people go wild and try to cover one aspect too many in the same build...

Lucky drops or help from friends/guildies I can believe. Powertrading, not so much.

Many people think it's easy but actually it takes a lot of knowledge of the goods, a lot of time scanning trade chat for the right WTB or WTS, haggling and people skills that will get you what you want without coming across as an arsehole or scammer, basic economy principles, knowing when prices will go down or up, and a knack for knowing when to do the trade now and when to hold on some more time. That knack can't even be taught, it's pure inspiration, you either have it or you don't.

what you want every 1 to use a build off pvx? GTFO

I approve of this thread.

Its impossible to distinguish those who are genuinely retarded from those who are trying to RED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GO with you.

This thread delivers, I even think I recognize a few of those builds.

@ HM: How do you import those PawNed templates? I always wanted to learn

nightschroud · May 23, 2011, 05:29 PM // 17:29

You just tell Paw.Ned where your templates are saved ingame. Then you can compile them and there's a "Make Screenshot" button on the toolbar.

How is that even implied in this thread? The point being made here is that Pug warriors in particular have a tendency to run some truly appaulling builds.

Well, at least we'd have some minimum standard we could expect.
