Default Hero setup

I've been thinking about a new setup WHICH IS NOT something like sabway or discordway and the best i've come up with is 3 ele nukers, now 'm just asking for peoples opinions here, better combo/nuker builds etc.

The reason i don't want to use builds like sabway is that in my opinion it takes the fun out of the game, u go around doing nothing while the computer goes around vanquishing for you.

If you haet d-way and sabway I haet u, goawai nao biyatch!!! QQ

So nukers, [searing flames] would be a good option, or maybe water eles or me/e's with water hate like [shard storm], [blurred vision], [rust] ect. It will work on NM but on HM it wont be as effective. What profession do you play anyway?

You can always take a normal balanced with propper monk, MM, weird curse guy or whatever makes your life harder when vanqing.

This comes to mind:

[build prof=n/a box][assassins promise][mark of pain][barbs][rigor mortis][rend enchantments][signet of lost souls][enfeebling blood][disrupting dagger][/build]

Something worth running with a melee guy when you are well and trully bored.

as igor said, run a MM, a monk with [word of healing] or [ healer's boon] and a curse necro with what igor said, you can use [defile defenses] instead of [rigor mortis] if you dont like to micro manage. the reason that discord and sabway works so well is because they are capable of dealing a large amount of damage despite the hardened armor in HM, thats why eles fail in HM, the damage they do is reduced greatly.

Assassins and Wars can both run a decent SY build for racway.

but yeah that should work fine

Umm Igor, racway works fine with warriors/sins. Basically the players job is to keep up save urselves, paragon just does it the best. The rest of the bar is tntf, and other skills devoted to fueling SY. A warrior or sin can do it just fine.

a build which might work well is one which uses [mind blast] and [glyph of lesser energy]/[glowing gaze] for e-management and spells like [rodgort's invocation] [fireball]+[mark of rodgort] [liquid flame] to deal damage.

are skills like [Savannah heat] and [searing heat] useful in pve?

Yes.

Try:

[build=OghkowMYoIqDZlYUE7FIDcBGL5C]
[build=OQSlcYlqJeKo74utwBZ7wEuHfhl3]
[build=OANUQmCbyWSLVTBHVJgLCoBGNVVA]

...should complement well with your war and sin. Bring the 2 monk henchies.

It is not as strong as sabway or discordway but it is different. Becareful with hexes or you can also replace the paragon hero with sab's healer.

Ive vanquished 11 area's with 3 KD warriors. Mainpart of the build:
Earth shaker, I think you can add the rest yourself. Worked real well, foes weren't getting up anymore xD

Something like this for exaple:
[OQkSE5JPBWxSckvaYvKmYBA]
[OQATE1JXxJwKWij8VDLX5qIAAA]

With my assassin I use this setup:

[Spiteful Spirit][Reckless Haste][Barbs][Enfeebling Blood][Rip Enchantment][Splinter Weapon][Signet of Lost Souls][Death Pact Signet]

[Ether Renewal][Aura Of Restoration][Zealot's Fire][Draw Conditions][Protective Spirit][Smite Hex][Strength Of Honor][Mending Touch]

[Reaper's Mark][Signet Of Sorrow][Weapon Of Warding][Spirit Transfer][Spirit Light][Life][Signet Of Lost Souls][Death Pact Signet]

With Strength of Honour and Splinter Weapon on myself and Barbs being thrown around the enemies don't last long. Obviously, staying alive isnt a problem, the N/Rt does a good job backed up by the smite/prot hybrid.

The ether renewal dude keeps pesky conditions off my back whilst doing damage to surrounding enemies every time he does so.

If your worried about the fun being taken out of the game by sabway, do discordway.

for discordway to be effective, u need to call every single target for the heros to wtfarmorignoringpwnage it all at once.

and for more "fun" dont give the heros much hexes or conditions, so its all on you.

oughta keep u on your toes when u encounter HM monks or bosses.

if constantly yelling at your heros and seeing things go poof one by one (and summoning an army of ebon vanguard sins if ur using AP ) isnt enough fun for you, you can try what i did for a long time.

WoH Monk

BHA R/P (with Stand Your Ground, Fall Back, GFtE... | EDA/Volly Ranger (Blind or Daze, up to you)

Jagged Bones MM Bomber

those 3 heros can effectively keep you and the team alive and rolling through alot of madness, however it lacks in dmg. so calling targets for ur ranger to shutdown, and dealing the main dmg, is up to you.

those 3 heros arnt the most effective, but if want to have fun, and not be so worried about completion times, and just dish out dmg knowing they will take care of your health (being a sin or a war i know that will be fun) i highly suggest it.

personally, i play ele, with the latter 3 heros i played Ether Renewal Air Spiker, and now with discord i play AP with the fun fun pve skills (and [augury of death][iron palm][dash] oh its so fun -jump in, b---- slap, run away, lol-). might not be the most effective, but hell its fun.

Not a bad idea. This was one of the builds I tried with my Dervish and her heroes. I was going for an enchant heavy build since Dervish synergizes very well with enchants.

I came up with something like this for the ER hero:

[Ether Renewal][Aura of Restoration][Protective Spirit][Smite Hex][Shield Guardian][Zealot's Fire][Infuse Health][Strength of Honor]

Basically, you want to use high energy spells. Condition removal is handled by another hero.

Nice ^^

I was using my version on my sin whilst going through condition heavy areas. Draw is such a spammable spell that I thought it really took advantage of Zealout's Fire. I tried shield guardian for a while, but never really liked it and I like investing more heavily into prot and smite rather than stretching into heal aswell (although I know you dont have to put much in to get a lot out of Infuse, the prots worked so well that it wasnt used a whole lot ).

If you want to do it the hard way use 7 henches, no heroes, like we did in the forgotten age before Nightfall. Otherwise if you want to kill everything yourself just use 3 monk heroes and nothing else.
