i have just the opposite. 16 earth & 12 arts. with a millus's pillar & razazans fervor+ a 25nrg scroll. 106dmg with tenais crystals & aftershock is 105 +76 kd dmg. plus ive used shock, etc. nadda. sux...

i shadow step in. hit sf, glyph, silv armor. aftershock, crystals. still isnt enough to kill the bosses. by the time i go thru this process SF & SA are running out. its a nice concept but really, it sucks. even with the 20% enchant its still not enough time to do anything significant. id like to try it with an assassin to see if the few extra seconds are significant. but i doubt it, cause with 12 earth its not enough damage output and i have 16 in earth as an ele. it should take down any boss with as much damage as im dealing. i give up. back to the old methods.

but you play wow or gw?

This build is a great build for certain bosses, but I am still having trouble
getting the boss to take most of the damage, alot of times I see other
monsters dropping dead and the boss only half-way down, any tips on
this is appreciated......the necro woespreader boss is my easiest kill.....

thx......

pegasux · Oct 03, 2006, 04:32 PM // 16:32

try to be patient and have the boss as your aggro trigger. when i do this i normally target the boss first, BUT i don't do that cause i don't have the patience. I take crystal wave and tenais crystal to kill the others that sliver targets first quicker...so 4 sec wasted on foes and 9 seconds for boss....should be more then enough time if you aggroed a large enough crowd.

Nice build, silver armor ftw.

This build can farm the raisu palace bosses, but probably need to be E/A since need the celestial storm to inflict extra dmg on the boss. But only the koosun staff worth something there, kaolin farm still net the most profit.

darknesstears · Oct 03, 2006, 10:47 PM // 22:47

can some of the pros here help me in game..? cuz after practicing for 2 days i can barely kill sunreach, warriors and monks construct.. i must be doing something wrong

only thing i can say so far is that this build works great for vasburg.

Evilsod · Oct 03, 2006, 11:32 PM // 23:32

5 Kaolin Blades?! The stingy little **** hasn't dropped once for me yet. I ended up having to buy 1 in KC...

This double greens event should be fun, gonna be some major Kaolin farming going on. Or at least there would be if i could ACTUALLY RED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GOING MOVE WITHOUT ERR7ING OUT!

Vodkaman · Oct 03, 2006, 11:59 PM // 23:59

this is a great build. thnx for sharing desires

ive managed to kill most of the bosses that u ppl have been posting, like monk, mesmer construct, scareater, woespreader,darkroot.... got some good drops over the last few days. sliver armor rules

and using aftershock and obsidian flame can do that extra dmg useful for killing the bosses. it happened to me sometimes that their health would go real low, and sliver ended -_- tried doing strongroot, nailed him sometimes, still no green, ill keep trying

pegasux · Oct 04, 2006, 02:12 PM // 14:12

yeah but you get tons of domination staffs =(. i rarely get those Evilsod. but next weekend will be fun...being almost guaranteed a green for every contruct should be fun. kaolin weps for all on my friends list...lol. heck why not since their price is going down the toilet next weekend. probably gonna be triple the CHANCE of a green instead of double. BTW for you kaolin farmers....the Kaolin weps DEFINATELY go higher on euro servers. i was on there for 3 weeks and the accursed staffs sold for 80-85k while there were going for 50-60k on american. swords were 60-65k euro and 40k here. i'd switch back after the green event but don't want to waste the last 2 switches i have =)

Evilsod · Oct 04, 2006, 02:23 PM // 14:23

I've only had 7 Dom Staffs, would've prefered at least 1 Blade instead of a Dom Staff.

Not sure about Kaolin Accursed... that piece of crap is almost impossible to shift. Since i got my first Accursed drop 2 days after this build started out on Kaolins i finally managed to sell 1 yesterday for 60k. The Blade however... they are extremely rare it seems here, taken me about a week to find someone selling 1 which i bought for 50k. Dom staffs are nice though

Right place, instant 60k sale usually, nobody seems to argue with there price.

I've taken a short break from Kaolins anyway, been slaughtering some Wardens Rit/Mes style for some materials.

Problems I have with Sunreach is that Sliver most of the time attacks other mobs. And if it does attack the right one, then he's getting healed by some ritualist warden.
Only killed him once. I gave up after that.

I have problems with the Time Eater now.
I do:
Cast Shadowform.
Death's Charge in on him.
Trying to cast Sliver, but it gets interupted right away due to a Signet thingy.
When I pre-cast Sliver as well then there is just too low damage for him to be killed. Even with Aftershock, Crystals, and Obsidian Flame.

Velath · Oct 04, 2006, 05:40 PM // 17:40

/bow
awesome build Desires, was using shadow form for running but hadn't even crossed my mind like this! After about 30 mins got the easy runs down, now to try for sunreach and constructs! GJ!

kielus · Oct 04, 2006, 06:10 PM // 18:10

well i play e/a and i use the exact beta build (only dmg -> sliver armor), i need some practice, that's for sure, but have no problems with killing either Mesmer's construct or Necro construct. Only probs is the warrior one, as SF doesn't last long enough; anyways practice makes master ^^

btw. i've seen u put some other dmg skills than sliver armor only, what u remove or so??

+ could someone put the builds in the first post or sticky?? cause after few weeks not reading it's not cool to read these 8 pages >< (laaazy)

big thx, this build rox ^^ started to get friends free greenies now

2 ways... Use another skill first. Or let yourself be hexed by Blurred Vision first so he uses the Signet to interrupt your glyph. Then just hope he hasn't echoed it

Desires · Oct 04, 2006, 07:01 PM // 19:01

Well hopefully the new video I added will help some people strugling with constructs but for those with trouble targeting it jsut takes practice and you can see some of my strats in the video.

jtchans · Oct 04, 2006, 07:33 PM // 19:33

Any tips on farming Jayne whenever I run in Sliver targets a Warden of the Tree and not the boss, do I have to aggro another group?

pegasux · Oct 04, 2006, 07:44 PM // 19:44

i wonder if certain bosses drop more for certain toons? i rarely get dom or prot staffs...i normally get the accursed and blade =). luckily i've been able to sell those fairly quickly. went on 2 runs this afternoon after laying off the constructs for a week and got 1 blade 2 accursed staffs...but no dom or prot staff though. i should have kept one of the dom staffs that i got since it seems that i won't get another till the green weekend.

benjef · Oct 04, 2006, 08:28 PM // 20:28

wow ure making a me make a assassin

chicks boy · Oct 06, 2006, 12:54 PM // 12:54

hey i jus want to know this:

do u use max armor for this build or just anything????????????????

thank you

Evilsod · Oct 06, 2006, 01:27 PM // 13:27

Well it does help you live longer against untargetted spells, skills and general damage you take running through mobs...

I'm beginning to think with the Shadow of Haste buff E/A is better than A/E for quite a few bosses. Quite easy to get 8% Morale Boosts killing 4 Constructs (trying for 10% but the Ele is a bitch without Dark Escape). No risk of DP unless things go horribly wrong and higher damage.
