Well, I was board one day, so I started thinking of builds. Then I came across Signit Of Midnight {E}. Then after that i came across Spirit Of Failure... Now teh builds started to come to me.

Main Skills:

Signet of Midnight AKA SoM
You and target touched foe become Blinded for 15 seconds.

Spirit of Failure AKA SoF
For 30 seconds, target foe has a 25% chance to miss with attacks. You gain 1..4 Energy whenever that foe fails to hit in combat.

Deadly Ripstoe AKA DF
For 8 seconds, while you have a sword equipped, you "block" the next attack against you, and your attacker takes 15..63 damage and begins Bleeding for 3..21 seconds.

Sub Skills:

Epidemic

Empythy

Wastels Worry

Ripstoe

Shield Stance

Disapline Stance

Diversion

Ignorance

Clumsiness

Dolyak Signit

Healing Sig

Stragity

The point of tis build is to inflict massave dmg to the apponent, but not even getting hit yourself.So you first cast Signit of midnight, then spirit of failure. When sig of midnigh ends, you ripstoe when casting it again to target(s).

Interesting... Im more of a adrenaline user, but If i had that elite, I would try it, lol. I might just cap it

Arkantos · May 27, 2006, 03:27 AM // 03:27

Gonna try this now

Clumsiness is pretty useless, you have 0 illusuion and it does 10 dmg...

EDIT: Works nice....This probably works on almost any melee boss.

Carth` · May 28, 2006, 08:16 AM // 08:16

Sorry for being stupid.. I don't understand where the "massive damage" is coming from. You blind yourself so you can't hit them. You blind all the enemies so they can't hit you. You put spirit of failure on them, so they hit you even less. All you get from it is lots of energy. And then you use deadly riposte to block one attack every 10 secs and make them bleed... but surely they won't be making many attacks since they are blinded + spirit of failured?

Porphyre · May 28, 2006, 09:47 PM // 21:47

You don't understood that this build is for 1v1 vs boss

for Merki the Reaver Farming, how do u kill the the mobs around the boss? i dont think u can pull the boss out by himself? Also how to get the door (zone) to open where the boss is?

Last time I farmed him he often runs a few seconds before his group follow him, that's when i aggro him or i just use a longbow and then sprint while merki is in my aggro circle because sometimes he still follows me. Oh and the flying squids (forgot name) don't really follow you..heh

About the door, you can't open it and is closed for some reason. Tried talking to the npc and tried unwaking water...both locked

Xaero Gouki Kriegor · Jun 09, 2006, 07:23 AM // 07:23

you do this the same way you do thirsty river, to the very left, there is a group of shiro'ken, you agro these shiro'ken into the outcast, the shiro'ken and outcast hate each other, they like to kill each other, using this concept, you can eliminate every group including those kraken, if someone showed me a video recorder, i could show you how to do this, its quite simple, you can get the hang of it and do it within seconds when you get the hang of killing the outcast gruops with shiro'ken, but in other words you use the shiro'ken themselves to kill off all those outcast, leave the group merki is in or the shiro'ken will kill merki as well, you jstu gotta pull him out of the last group once the otehr groups have been killed, tehre shuold be a safe spot beneath taht wave/cliff to wait for the shiro'ken to take care of the outcast and return to their normal patrol route, but really you use the shiroken to kill the outcast, agro the first 3 assassins that pop up out of no where and take them to the shiro'ken from there, agro more outcast to come and join the gruop and the shiro'ken will just do the work for you, i advice using shield stance in stead of warry stance, its good to use while escaping the agro of the 2 groups when you bring them together

i cant be arsed to post a new thread, and imo ur build is too slow :P

Merki Farm -> my way ^_^

Profession : W/x

Skillset :
Sprint, Glads Defense, Riposte, Deadly Riposte, On Your Knees, Shieldbash, Dolyak, Heal signet

Attributes : 15 Strength, 16 Tactics, 3 swordmanship (^^)

Recommended Itamz : Furious Sword of x (i prefer of fortitude), Stoneskin Gauntlets

I used to do this from the kurzick side. If your faction has control over the area, just exit Harvest Temple and let the Shiroken kill you. You rez on the shrine, and going from there to merki takes about 30 secs tops. before, id simply die, rez, run up to him, see if he has shield and attack, if not rezone or run up to Rajazan

if you are in the mood of killing the Creeping Carp that soon start moving toward the rez shrine, just move towards them, hit Dolyak, build up enough adrenaline for On Your Knees (6 adrena), enter Glads, hit Shieldbash and start spamming the ripostes. soon enough some of the monstaz will attack you with a skill, and will be knocked down from Shieldbash. as soon as this happens, use On your knees, instantly recharging your Glads defense. with a bit of luck and good timing, you can almost never exit Glads..

once u got these dead, hug the left wall thing and move forward. wait for the 2 kraken to move away, slip in. a group of 3 assassins should popup on ur left, find a safe spot and dispose of them (or skip them..).

with this build Ive killed the whole of Merkis group, however, if you wait a bit and observe his movement, he should break up from his group at some point, and you can simply lure him toward the spot u just killed the assassins in.

repeat the process as mentioned before, build 6 adrena, glads, shield bash, on your knees, repeat. use ripostes as soon as you can to speed the process up a bit ^_^

once youve done merki, you can either run up to rajazans group (be wary of the shirokens), go get the Shrouded oni (dangerous, there are Outcast groups that often run into the poor oni and pwn the crap out of it), or rezone. Strongroot and Geoffer are both killable using this build, however, it takes a bit more luck to lure strongroot away and is too slow imho

once you get the basic idea down, youll notice the real problem with this build are the assassins "Wild Strike" skill, as if you get hit with it, you lose your stance. however, while glads is up, you have a 75% chance to block wild strike, and using the ripostes and shield bash further minimize the risk

hope this helps

Jetdoc · Jun 09, 2006, 02:07 PM // 14:07

I can't believe that I missed this thread. Excellent but unusual concept - use the one condition that warriors hate against your enemy.

I'm thinking that this would be much better suited to a Me/W than a W/Me.

Why? Because the only warrior skills being used are Tactics skills (e.g. stances, healing signet, riposte) and the occasional sprint to get past the baddies (which you could replace with Illusion of Haste if you time the crippledness right).

I think that instead of pumping up your Tactics line with a superior rune, you can pump up your true damage dealing skill line - Domination - to get the maximum effect/efficiency out of the build. This may speed up the killing more. After all, if you're not relying on your weapon to do damage and are relying on your blindness/stances to prevent damage, then what good is it to be a warrior primary?

Its nice, but not exactly original. You can do this actually better with Necro/Mesmer or Mesmer/Necro (only on a 1 on 1 basis).

Vs Bosses, yes WW is wonderful, but not really useful vs normal monsters. Signet of Midnight won't help you much vs a boss, since duration is only 1/2. You are hit for the full 15 seconds, it is only for like 7, then you hit Ripstoe (only good for 1 attack).

In Factions its only good in certain areas, only because there are sooooo many spellcasters that blindness and your defenses are useless.

Not sure why Epidemic is listed as a sub if this is not for mass blindness (1vs1 or boss only).

I do have a question for Farming 5-10 melee monsters. Do you have enough energy to use Signet of Midnight (0 energy), Epidemic, Spirit of Failure, Empathy, and Deadly Ripstoe?

which is the reason this person's build is w/me, signet of midnight + epidemic, or running the shiro'ken into the outcast to kill them instead of dealing with them, the 1 shiro'ken group can kill outcasts faster then 1 riposte warrior

Yes I know that other builds can do it much faster,but, i dont care. This build is unique and has never been posted before. Theres no need of posting whole guide in soeone elses guide. All you have to post a link. Not giving every little detail.

As i said before, this build is extreamly easy and is good for beginners.

********

Thanks for everyone elses replies.

What? Yes, I am america. No I'm not foreighn. I was born in US... If you think my spellings bad, open your eyes and look at some others. I was tierd after writing those other guides, so i got a bit sloppy. Is it that bad of spelling?

EDIT: Heh, I guesse you lost the wager. What do i win? Look both ways
