well my idea is for two warriors ( using same attack atribute and not using many secondary class skills ) to change thier secondaries to mesmer and each take arcane mimicery (spelling?) so you could have 2 sword warriors running round whacking people with dragon slash then with the boost smacking them with a tasty quivering blade
this could be for PvP and PvE but i expect it has been done before like most things

ooh ohh ohh!!
another idea what about (PvE) and hundred blades/triple chop/cycolone axe + ignite arrows combo this could deal good dmg to a group of ememies

brainstorm over

hundred blades // cyclone axe
need I say more..
you'll face energy problems, arcane mimicry cost 10 (doesn't it?), last only 20secs...
ignite arrows only works with arrows btw

you can't combo with HB & CA... or you need to switch between 2 weapon slots.

Lets say this first,

Hundred Blades + Triple Chop = cannot be done on a constant basis. Both are elites.

Hundred Blades + Cyclone Axe + Ignite Arrow = weak+weak+weak attack.
Too few points into Sword + Axe + Wilderness Survival. It can be done, but each attack is too weak to be useful.

I think this has already been done:

One W/R, the other W/Me.

Apply Poison + Cyclone Axe + Dismember + Throw Dirt
Fragility + Sever Artery + Gash + Hamstring + Epidemic

Fragility applied to target first, then W/R does his thing, then W/Me does the rest.

Both then use Victory Shall Be Mine.

Lol, you're right. I'm very pesimistic.

It should be Victory IS MINE!

My bad.

The problem with Arcane Mimicry is each must have a different (or I suppose the same) elite. With 2 sword Warriors, having 1 with an axe and 1 with a sword elite doesn't seem likely, unless one is a very deceptive warrior wielding a sword until close range. Then, "surprise!" the axe comes out.

Anyway, where is Final Thrust?

I've thought of this a while back, but then I realized that the recharge on hundred blades or triple chop was 10 secs, so you could only used the mimicked elite 2 times at best.

This is not worth the 15 energy cost imo; However, it might be feasible to use it to get 2 low cost adrenal elites like enraged smash or whirling axe.

1) tiger stance
2) enraged smash (2 adrenaline charge)
3) archane mimicry (enraged smash #2)

using the above three skills might allow you to constantly spam enraged smash (I say might because the adrenal charge could be off by 1 because wars seem to lose 1 adrenaline everytime they use adrenal skills which is gained back on hitting in the case of adrenal attacks)

Why not just couple 2 W/Me who are using the SAME weapon?
Such as...

1. Axe Warrior = Triple Chop {e} + Cyclone Axe + (2 Adren attacks) + Arcane Mimicry
2. Axe Warrior = Eviscerate {e} + Cyclone Axe + (2 Adren attacks) + Arcane Mimicry
-------------------------
Each warrior now can utilize 2 great Axe Elites.

For fast sword adrenaline builds::
1. Sword Warrior = Hundred Blades {e} + (2 or 3 Adren Attacks) + Arcane Mimicry
2. Sword Warrior = Dragon Slash {e} + (2 or 3 Adren Attacks) + Arcane Mimicry
-------------------------
Having these two elites will net a fast adrenaline build-up, and make a pretty nice DPS for both wars.

Just a few ideas.\
enjoy!

I'd like to reassert that you can only ever use the mimicked hundred blades/triple chop 2 times at best (only once realistcally, if you don't use it right away).

Consider the recharge of hundred blades/tripple chop 8-10 secs with the duration of archane mimickry 20 secs this time.

as for something like evicerate/devestating hammer with a high adrenal charge - you'll most likely only be able to charge and get it off once before archane mimickry wears off (twice at best if your target stands still for you).
