Sometimes there are Un-official updates..

Shh.. dont tell anyone, Anet will hear us..

Thats where the User commentary comes in on the Wikis under the updates about un-mentioned changes found by users.

I seriously have to pay more attention to what skills monsters use.. and to the GW community apparently. It was fun while it lasted.

This still works kids, it just needs to be tweaked a little. The RoD change doesn't nerf this by any means.

Andruil · Feb 13, 2008, 08:41 PM // 20:41

What happens if you RoD the RoD'd damage?

A Simple Farmer · Feb 13, 2008, 09:32 PM // 21:32

Definitely sucks when they change the skills un-anounced, is this perhaps a temple directed nerf? (crossing fingers for bug)

Right on Katsumi, for now substitute Glyph of lesser energy with Signet of Devotion on Ogden.

As per 'ASF's request, here are some screens from my test'n'tune build based off his warrior build. Armor is none, mask is basic lion mask, and staff is Sadi's Benediction green. I used a Superior Strength rune to set Sig. of Stamina and then changed. I kept around 790+ hp throughout the dungeon, and only thing that slowed me down was the lack of Energy regeneration. As you can see Holy Wrath and Retribution were triggered at their max damages most of the time, and with Life Attunement, I was healed roughly 30hp more than the damage I was taking. Saving my arse on skill downtime, miss-casts, and interrupts. I never even used Wary Stance, so I'll replace it with Light of Deldrimore probably. Any questions, feel free to ask.

And thanks again ASF.

Nice build Larcen, thanks for posting.

I've updated the builds to reflect:
para and ranger
Reversal of Damage update
Skill and build alternates.
addressing energy management

I tried with the warrior build but i'm not getting healed by SB. I am using shing jea 35AL armor. And I'm getting hit 50 dmg... I'm guessing i have to remove some armor, lowering my hp?

A Simple Farmer · Mar 04, 2008, 11:43 PM // 23:43

Yeah don't use any armor. Use a Sup str headpiece and take it off after you use your signet.

If that isn't working, what's your health at? (which warrior build you doing?)

Larcen · Mar 05, 2008, 12:39 AM // 00:39

And if you still can't get it, keep a look out for me next time I'm online and I'll try and help you out. I've gotten it down to 1 or less deaths (Mostly human error) now on my warrior setup, and aside from Energy Regen (Which is less and less of a problem) its just as fast as doing it with my Monk primary.

I was thinking about Shards this weekend as an endeavor, and came across this post by chance through 'search' and I believe I'll try it out. Sure, 2 monks can probably handle it, but my warrior is so much more fun and challenging.

A Simple Farmer · Mar 06, 2008, 05:13 PM // 17:13

Doylak would be perfect.
There's no more interupts than you'd find in TOD except for the last boss, I think he spawns repeatedly with skeleton archers, so bring wary stance to cover SOA.
Also try pulling him to the entrance where there are two flame jets.
& consumables are always helpfull.

Abonai Laguna · Mar 07, 2008, 04:25 PM // 16:25

I don't know.. On my necro It is easy, but on my Monk or rit i just die... How come?

A Simple Farmer · Mar 07, 2008, 07:20 PM // 19:20

Abonai Laguna; how you die, is a good indicator of what is going wrong.
If you are instantly dead; dropped PS
If you can see your health drop before you die; dropped SpB or SOA.
Is it always with the same enemy?

That being said, the traditional monk build should be VERY easy after using your necro. Just make sure you have 14 in prot.

Did you update the Ogden build?

Abonai Laguna · Mar 08, 2008, 01:05 PM // 13:05

Yes I did, i actually die because ogden dies... It really sucks. he has just as much hp and everything as on my necro but just dies.

Deirdre Phaedra · Mar 08, 2008, 04:05 PM // 16:05

I strongly disagree about not running Light of Deldrimor. I run LoD in my build and it cuts my run time by ~10 minutes...

Try Dropping rebirth and either bring illusion of weakness. That way he'll have 2 heals. Also don't agro more than 2 groups :-)

LOD on which build?
I've tried posting builds that don't require PVE skills cause they're a pain to get and if there is a skill that makes the build easier (safer), I'd use that first.
