Hey guys,

Spotted this build on youtube on a grainy and hard to make out video. I made it as well as I could and I must say, it kicks some serious butt. My second run (first time they got Rastigan...ug) I was halfway through the Ancient Skale and I got cocky with the distance a dryder will chase you >_>.

Anyhow...it's really hard to get to the beach itsself since I can't figure out for the life of me how you kill Shadow Monks. The build is powerful enough to take down 2 Shadow Eles/Mesmers, Ancient Skale/Dryders/Driftwood in 1 go.

Build

Attributes:
11 + 3 + 1 Shadow Arts
10 + 3 Dagger Mastery
10 + 3 Critical Strikes

Arcane Echo, Shadow Form, Mark of Instability, Black Lotus Strike, Twisting Fangs, Falling Spider, Death Blossom, Shadow of Haste.

I use +15% in a stance daggers with NO ENCHANT MOD (if SF lasts too long, the echo'd version vanishes before you've cast it)

Use

Pick a target. Shadow of Haste, Arcane Echo. Run closer. Shadow Form up, Mark of Instability on it. Then just 4,5,6,7. Keep hitting it and recast Shadow Form when it's flashing. Change target. Mark, 4,5,6,7. Shadow of Haste ends, you teleport out. Sometimes, the enemy doesn't die but degens to death after you leave.

But Monks are buggers. You do the first chain on it, and then it starts healing. Then you repeat the chain, but by the time you finish, it's healed enough to not die.

Any ideas?

BTW This is NOT my build. The video of it can be found...

Here

Help! xD

you avoid the monk, any group with the monk in it you cant kill. You cant do enough dps to out dmg his healing, hope that will help you.

Ok thanks

can anyone help me figure out how you dodge around the Monks to reach the beach etc? Avoiding the patrols with only Shadow of Haste is tricky

get near them, cast soh, lure them way far from where u soh, opposite the direction u want to run to. when u port back, run to behind the rock.
