Me Primary Ele
My hero setup
UA Monk
3 Necros, MM/SS typical Sabway
SOS Rit
2 Mes. Panic, and a Intepude

I am having a hard problem getting through the HM mode, NM is pretty easy.

I sometimes roll on my bar a E/Rit as a SOS and make the hero a Rit SOGM.

I am thinking of going with wards on my ele for support. But with ROJ and their minions and stealing mine, I get wiped pretty fast.

Any ideas?

spiteful spirit+panic=fail

spiteful spirit=Elite Hex Spell. For 8...18...20 seconds, whenever target foe attacks or uses a skill, Spiteful Spirit deals 5...29...35 shadow damage to that foe and all adjacent allies of that foe

panic=Elite Hex Spell. For 1...8...10 second[s], target foe and all nearby foes are hexed with Panic. When a foe hexed with Panic successfully uses a skill, all other nearby foes are interrupted

----------

no reason for 2 panic mesmers one is enough and also what skills is your UA monk running cause if you have the nec/rit healer from sabway he should be enough for healing seems like you have an awful lot of healing going really would help if the builds where posted so people could see them and give advice to help out

on an Ele you could easily roll through HM with a standard Discord necro trio plus two mesmers and two rits.

At tcratty; I think he is using a Panic and an Ineptitude mesmer. I actually prefer 2 Panic mesmers.

roj monks are pretty nice considering all the balling afflicted do.

As a human Ele run an Assassin's Promise build.
SS sucks. If you want to run a damage Curses Nec then run Pain of Disenchantment or even Feast of Corruption instead.
Take a second Rit hero. If you're having a hard time not dying then give him Soul Twisting, Shelter and Displacement.
Make sure your UA bar is good; Heaven's Delight and Divine Healing are decent skills, as is Gift of Health or Dwayna's Kiss. He can also take hex removals, a condition removal or Shield of Absorption. Also rememeber to give him some Mesmer energy management skills. Remember that a UA hero really can't really reliably support any 10 energy skills.

I also recommend hybridising heroes; that is giving them two jobs to do. For example, an SoS Rit can very easily and effectively pack a few heals, as can an Ineptitude Mesmer or Curses Nec. MMs are excellent candidates to stick prots on.
By doing this you cut down the number of dedicated healers you need; I typically only take one and some people don't take any as a result of this.

I would reccomend for you to be an standard discord caller with meteor shower+glyph sac (kds help alot, because the foes like to ball

a sos rit with resto
a soul twisting rit (hes important)
AotL MM
RoJ monk
Roj monk
mesmer panic
mesmer ineptitude

that is basically what i ran, and i only had to change it up for one quest (tracking the corruption or something like that) because of the huge amounts of enemies in there. I went a terra tank, and held aggro as my midline killed them off.

The bars aren't as important as your actual playstyle, however. You need to be able to manage aggro and flag your heroes so that the enemies will stay balled and your heroes wont. What I did was find a corner, flag my sos there and cast his spirits, pull the enemies to the corner, and micro 2x roj and meteor shower on balls. the spirits bodied blocked long enough for most of the enemies to die

Improve player skill first, improve builds later - there is no reason why the setup you have cannot do WoC HM.

Read this: http://www.guildwarsguru.com/forum/p...t10447337.html

You want to:

1. Spread out your heroes so you don't explode to AoE + Afflicted Soul Explosions;
2. Pull, which balls monsters (slightly), gives you some leeway, lets you set up all your spirits, lets minions take aggro and may cause some monsters to run out ahead of his allies;
3. Spike out the monsters one by one;
4. Kill the MMs as soon as is reasonably possible!

Take out one of the roj monks and grab a necro/rit with pain of disencht. Also get earthbind on ST rit : 6 sec kd from each meteor shower hit is insane

Elfblade · Jul 20, 2011, 12:22 PM // 12:22

maximum kd duration is 4 seconds not 6 and eartbind does not add seconds it lets increases it until 3 seconds.

Is there any melee Warrior build for doing Minister Cho HM ? I dont have any problems with WoC quests that requires 7 hero, but cant finish quests with 3 hero.
I tried every combination with 2xRit/Nec, 2xRit/Monk and 2xRit/Ele what i heard is best option.
Simply i cant do that.
I run 100b build.

You should go a Dragon Slash build with SY and asura scan

Bring a sos hero with soh

Bring a MM hero with prots

bring any healer you are confortable with. the key is to maintain sy as much as possible, while doing a lot of damage.
