Summary: This Guy Helps healing and reduces damage before burning spreads

Team Summary: The Paragons keep ToF and TntF up at all times while bonding the dervishes. The ritualist uses non targeting healing spells to heal the dervishes and other people and keep up Greater Conflagration. The Mesmer keeps all the enemies Hexed with Mark of rodgort at all times and drains casters energy. Finally the Dervishes are the main source or damage and keep the enemies burning with the scythes AoE dmg.

I have not tested this build out yet, I just thought of it just now actually but It should work out:
Their on Fire r16: 37% Dmg Reduction
Theirs nothing to fear r8: 31% Dmg Reduction
Mantra of flame R8: 39% Dmg Reduction
Grand Total: 107% Dmg Reduction
So once everyone is on fire the tanks should receive 0 dmg!

I hope someone can test this out and see if this Build really is the team build a lot of players have been looking for!

3 paras with that build is a waste.
Take one bonder, one Focused Anger/Nothing To Fear/GFTE/Save Yourselves spammer, and one SoR/SoP depending on the area.

Ok I edited it Thanks to ibreaktoilets and I decided to erase one paragon and add another forgotten on, The assassin!

That Me/E is pretty worthless IMO. I would suggest using mind blast to pump out rodgorts (with arcane echo perhaps?), or use MoR.

Off the top of my head, something like:

Mantra of recall
Rodgort
liquid flame
power drain
glyph of lesser energy
epidemic/something
drain enchant/fireball/ether nightmare/tenai's heat/energy tap/res sig/mantra of flame/anything depending on area and energy
mantra of flame/res sig

Liquid flame under MoR is really nice, even at 12 spec. I might have overloaded the energy management a bit, I dunno, you'll have to play around with it.

I'd also suggest trying to put serpent's quickness on the ritualist to speed up recovery of spirits. And don't you need winter and greater conflag to convert both ele and physical damage to fire? If so, you might want to drop the sin for a ranger or rit/ran to carry both spirits without sacrificing space. Maybe run 2 resto rits, each with one spirit, some rit spirits, and some heals?

[skill=card]Chorus of Restoration[/skill] This was on the Rit/Ranger bar

[skill=card]Vow of Silence[/skill] makes shield of absorption useless.

[skill=card]Mantra of Flame[/skill] on everybody? Who casting that much fire that all must have this stance? "ToF!" should stop fire damage well enough.

And last, but not least, no main monk to heal makes this suspect at worst. I would rather a monk that sat around and did nothing instead of no monk at all. The thought is good, its execution is what I would question.

1. Heh heh my mistake I replaced that with pestilence
2. shield of absorption is for the bonder to reduce damage to him before MoR takes effect
3. The Mesmer spams MoR so much that everyone should be on fire and using the Mantra reduces damage while the ritualist uses non targeting healing spells to heal.
4. I created the build to try to not be dependent on mainstream primaries so thats why I did not include a monk...

Thank you for pointing out my mistake, man I feel silly for making that mistake but thanks for your input it is very well appreciated.

Nice attempt!

I like the thought behind it and the name of the team BTW

If it was more fine tuned i could see it being very effective; plus it would spice up the game a bit not playing as the same everyday Primary class builds.

Please, tell me what Pestilence is? I have never heard of it.
