I've been messing around with all kinds of builds: Spread the Love W/Me, Blood Pirate W/N, Fire Starter W/E, even W/Mo with Divine Boon+Balthazar's Spirit/Aura, and Zealot's Fire. I just cannot take down multiple mobs at once. I haven't tried W/R yet with traps/poisons yet, which would be the next path, but I'm looking for advice on what kind of build lends itself to taking down sizeable groups of melee mobs while solo. Everyone's two cents are welcome

Cyclone axe and hundred blades and if your a monk seconday vigorous spirit and live vicarously and other buffs? Gladiators defense hmm? These are decent skills for taking up multiple enemies.

Cyclone Axe + Conjure * might be good. Frankly, Balthazar's Aura costs way too much for a warrior (Divine Boon?? that hurts more than it helps for a W/*). Most Elementalist AoE spells also cost too much. I don't know about W/Me, W/R, or W/N.

If only I could have 100 blades AND gladiator's defense

Keep trying, you will get there. It is NOT impossible. My W/Mo can solo Crystal Desert missions by himself, and he kills groups in 20 seconds flat. And no, I don't use a sword or shield or axe or hammer, I use a rod.

Sorry for not putting a build, I prefer it to be a secret. n_n

Um... Solo build's arn't hard at all, it's finding a team one that works out well that's hard. Baltahzars spirit = Adreniline + energy supply, stick bonettis or healing hands if you want to stay alive, healing breeze helps in the gaps, use cyclone axe/balthazars aura/symbol of wraith if you want area attacks, Vigorous spirit or such if you still have trouble staying alive. Btw, a W/Mo cannot solo thirsty river or dunes of despair, you can try running through elona, but 1 out of 3 is not mission(s).

It's quite alright if you don't believe me.

A team smiting build that's AoE is kind of iffy, since most good teams get out of AoE spells ASAP. Balzathar's Aura is a hell of a good AoE since you can run around and be a walking bomb.

And I think the poster is talking about PvE as opposed to PvP. Much love, Rusty.

EDIT: In Elona, I can't complete the mission, due to time limit. I kill almost everything there, but the time limit prevents me from finishing the mission, LOL. When I say solo, what I generally mean is killing everything in sight.
