Hell yeah.

They take a lot longer than they used to , if the group is bigger than 3.

5 or more, and it's a royal pain in the arse.

I just went through and cleared all but the last group of smites in UW, as I got distracted and died.

That included Aatxes, Grasping's, DN's, Smites and Coldfires. Killed the lot.

Takes a bit more work, and a lot more time than it used to, but it's still doable.

I've had to ditch Reckless Haste anyway.

I run:
Prot Spirit
Healing Breeze
Spirit Bond (for when HB gets interrupted twice)
Spiteful Spirit
Shadow of Fear (for Smites)
Essence Bond
Balth's Spirit
Mending

If anyone has a better build, I would be very interested to try it though.

Default 5 smites question

I got to the smites using a build that swapped reckless haste with HB, but anyone have suggestions on taking on 5 smites? When they all stayed it was easy to count the smite hexes, but now they tend to rota their kiting, its hella lot more difficult.

Eventually I got killed because of my microscopic attention span. I'm sure they are still possible to kill, but if anyone can share their wisdom of how they kill a group of 5, I'd be grateful

i never tried the solo uw build b4.
but 1 question, does agro also break if you only attack 1 foe a time. If not try this skill.

http://gw.gamewikis.org/wiki/Spoil_Victor

For 1...25 seconds, whenever target foe attacks or casts a Spell on a creature with less Health, that foe loses 25...85 Health.

cost 10 NRG CASTINGTIME 1 SEC RECHARGE 10 SEC

if it does not scatter your agro then i think this will be the best way.

Aggro does not break if you aggro 3 or less. This isn't the best option as it will take a lot more time to kill enemies, and smites will be hella lot slower if not impossible. I'm stickin' to Spiteful Spirit, its just that 5 smite groups are a pain in the arse.

He means to ask that if you aggro 8 guys but use spoil victor on 1, will the aggro of the guy taking damage break? The answer as far as I know is yes, because Silver Armor causes the one guy in big mobs to run if he doesn't die before he gets out of damage range.

I have been trying to use this build. It takes some practice but I am getting the hang of it. How long does a full run usually take?
