If you actually read my first post on this subject I told the OP that healing hands was ineffective. My responce was to the guy flamming me for asking a question about the effectiveness of Healing Burst in a party with 3+ melee chars.

Why use an elite like when you don't have devine favour as there will be no bonus with HH it will heal when being attacked.

M: Gee, I wonder why...
W has left the party
M's screen: W whispers, "You noob!"

M can cast Protective Spirit all she wants, if W can't stop acting like Wammo, it doesn't do any good. So W start's thinking:

W: "I need to make tank, only tanks can win this game."

Sounds about right to me, its idiots like this that made me crfeate my warrior in the first place. Now it's one of my most played classes because i enjoy playing to kill things rather than stand around like a fool.

Lol, warriors with monk elites are shit. End of.


Warriors should stick to warrior elites in general PvE, I don't see how this isn't obvious to some.

Healing Burst is a group heal, in otherwords your buffing your party, something wars should be doing. I am not saying it is a good idea, but it does work for a war to bring a skill that can keep your front line alive.


X W W X

R E E R

M M


W = warriors
X = pets
E = elementals/mesmer/necro/rits(any nuker really)
R = Rangers
M = Monks.

With this set up you have a self sustaining front line that can deal damage and a secondary line, taking some hits from casters ect. that can be healed by the monks who wont have to run up and heal the defending wall.


I am not saying this is the best or most efficient pary build, just that it will work.

Stapling my finger to the wall would work too if I needed to hold something on the wall for a period of time. It still doesn't mean that its not a retarded RED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GOing idea.

He can run what he likes in PvE, I like the sound of the idea, and as some guy already posted you can have whole groups of warriors without monks using this skill, there are much better things, but it does work.
If you don't like the idea, don't use it, end of.

Warriors are supposed to deal damage, monks and paragons are supposed to be buffing your party.

But whatever. If you want to run it then go for it, it's PvE.

OH I see.....


So wars should never run [skill]"Watch Yourself!"[/skill] or [skill]"Shields Up!"[/skill] or [skill]Protector's Defense[/skill] or [skill]"Save Yourselves!"[/skill]

and here I was thinking these were good skills, oh what a noob I must be.

People post to get all possible input on the question they asked.

Crap sugestions are from people telling others there is only one build you are permited to use in all of GW and if you don't run it then you should not bother playing the game.

It is a game, nothing more nothing less.

The number of times you've suggested to use WY, SU, or SY are abysmally low, and the number of times you've suggested to use bad builds are abysmally high.

Also, Protector's Defense is crap.

Fixed.

Now see, theres quite a big difference between going /mo and speccing into a crap attribute line for monk skills that are bad on every class then speccing in tactics (which is somewhat useful) for the first 3 skills and speccing into nothing for godmode.

If you are a w/mo and carry any monk skills other then these: Succor, Mending touch, balthazar's spirit, purge signet, Judge's insight or a hard res, you better have a very good reason why when I ask. Otherwise, I will request you change it for a more effective warrior skill, if you don't then "There ain't enough room in this here group for the both of us".

Just because PvE can be beaten by a wammo with an empty skill bar and henchies does not mean you and the henchies are using good builds.

And tactic's warriors who don't have Watch Yourself! make me cry inside...

Excuse me but Warriors can't heal that well unless you sacrifice(sp) what you have invested in tactics or weaponsmastery and with out DF it is just waste of a heal plain and simple.I wouldn't eve n use healing burst as a Monk as WoH is King of the elite healing elites.In otherwords you just wasted an SoC.

I give up responding with intelligence to these flames...

I could post a build, a screen shot and demonstrate just how effective it is, but that wouldn't matter to most of you that believe you and you alone are the GOD of all players and anyone not running your approved builds just sucks.

So flame on, I'll keep playing and have fun vanquishing with ease while you keep screaming at 'noobs' in your PUG's about how its all thier falt your party got wiped.

I agree, I am god!

But seriously, Crom, you have no basis for any of your arguements. Good players can run bad builds, but there is no reason to. If you like running garbage, go ahead but don't expect people to be sympathetic. There is an enormous amount of evidence behind standard builds, that's why they are standard. When you use substandard builds, you will weaken yourself no matter what.

Well as long as you know what a bad build is and what a good build is then you should be excused. I run bad build sometimes sometimes for the challenge and because it's fun but I do run a 'good' build whenever I enter someplace serious
