i decided to remake the thread seeing as it is now a 7 page mnstrosity. So here it is. Lets start with my current build.

[build prof=W/Ele Strength=9 Swordsmanship=14 Airmagic=9][for great justice][hundred blades][power attack][galrath slash][final thrust][conjure lightning][berserker stance][resurrection signet][/build]

That is a lot of energy attacks...

**Marty Silverblade** · Sep 13, 2008, 11:55 PM // 23:55

Needs more Frenzy/Rush, less Berserkers Stance. Also, With those attributes, your Air Magic will be at 10 not 9.

Point.

With Hundred Blades and Power Attack, you are going to be burning a lot of energy. You'd need a Zealous sword to keep up. With Conjure Lightning, you aren't going to get the benefit of added damage unless you are wielding a weapon with Lightning damage, which Zealous is not.

Instead, why don't you run this:

[Frenzy][[email protected]][Sever [email protected]][[email protected]][Galrath [email protected]][Final [email protected]][Conjure [email protected]][Resurrection Signet]

Still gives you the ability to get Bleed / DW on opponents, still gives you direct damage with Galrath, and Final for a finisher, as well as a decent damage buff from Conjure. It also uses the Frenzy/Rush IAS/cancel that most Warriors are fairly used to running. And of course, a rez on your Hard Target self.

EDIT:

Whoops! Realized that I had no Elite on your bar... just goes to show you that Proph Sword elites are FTL... this bar would function well enough...

^
I would personally drop Galrath for Savage Slash.

The problem with this bar however is...

The IAS is horrible. That skill shouldn't even be called an IAS, as it can't even be used with attack skills.

Power Attack is bad unless you're running Warrior's Endurance, and running Warrior's Endurance on anything but a Scythe Warrior (The reason here is that there are more skills worth using that cost energy when it comes to WA) is kinda weak.

Hundred Blades is meh, but I guess you can use it anyway...

Oh, and if you're not going to use Frenzy / Rush, remove the Conjure to use a zealous weapon and use Flurry.

[frenzy][[email protected]][conjure [email protected]][hundred [email protected]][sever [email protected]][[email protected]][empty][res sig]

You'd probably want [for great justice] or [galrath [email protected]] in the optional. If you want both... drop [hundred blades]

Drizzitdude · Sep 14, 2008, 11:43 PM // 23:43

Oh sorry I forgot to mention that this build is what i am currently usinf in the fissure of woe and the underworld so arent many fleshies there. Otherwise I would use [sever artery]&[gash]

k now for some respnses so i can find out whats up

1: Okay for the first response, You are right I do burn up alot of energy and that is major flaw in my build and i am not afraid to admit it.

2: I am dropping conjure because I dont want to go get a good lightning ( or any other element weapon.

3:I dont want to drop [hundred blades] because it works well with [for great justice] to get adren.

4: I will use frenzy instead. I just saw beserkers stance and thought it would be ok. But the fact that i cant use a skill with it is annoying. i will also use rush seeing as it use adren instead of energy.

Okay. to conclude this first part he is the new bar.

[Build prof=W/Ele strength=12 swordsmanship=14][for great justice][frenzy][rush][hundred blades][power attack][galrath slash][final thrust][resurrection signet][/build]

It is a bit more effective energy wise. ( BY A WHOLE FIVE :O) And a better IAS. We will continue from here.

-Power Attack
-Rez Signet
+Sever Artery
+Gash

Buy those res consumables if you fear dying.

non-elite sword attacks are better than hundred blades. lose it.

syphonus · Sep 15, 2008, 01:29 AM // 01:29

I ran this in prophecies with little difficulty.

[Build prof=W/Ele strength=9 swordsmanship=14 firemagic=10][glyph of lesser energy][conjure flame][mark of rodgort][frenzy][rush][sever artery][gash][final thrust][/build]

Swap out sever artery/gash for [galrath slash] and [for great justice!] in non-fleshy areas.

You're not an elementalist. Don't try to mimic one.

100 blades doesn't use adrenaline it uses energy so no use for for great justice.I would recomend an axe if there aren't that many fleshies down in the FoW

[axe twist][executioner's strike][eviscerate][bulls strike][frenzy][rush][optional][resurrection signet]

I would of used an axe if I knew how good it was like one of my officers did in Prophecies only but I was stubborn and wanted to use sword only but now I use both.I use hammer to once in while.

what means deep wound i don't understand :/

**Marty Silverblade** · Sep 15, 2008, 10:52 AM // 10:52

http://wiki.guildwars.com/wiki/Deep_wound

Kale Ironfist · Sep 15, 2008, 10:54 AM // 10:54

Deep Wound: A condition that temporarily removes 20% of their maximum health (up to 100 points of health) and reduces their healing by 20%.

What makes it potent is how Guild Wars handles changes in maximum health. Whenever there is a change to your maximum health, you gain or lose that much current health. Essentially, you've dealt a hidden 100 (or 20% of their max health, whichever is lower) damage just by inflicting a Deep Wound.

lolwut? I heard that you gain adrenaline on hitting a foe, even if it's an auto-attack. You'd gain insane amounts of adrenaline if you hit even two foes, that'd be eight adrenaline (two attacks x two foes x double adrenaline)

For the record though, Hundred Blades is still kinda crap and I'd much rather run an [[Eviscerate] axe build or a [[Earth Shaker] hammer build if I were Proph only.
