basically keeping pressure+conditions on call, with the utility of both interruption and anti-enchantment...

this is for mostly RA/AB, but works fine in PvE too, and i just wanted to know what you guys thought.

If you're doing that already, maybe add in the spear attack that cripples bleeding foes.

needs moar [skill]Wearying Spear[/skill] or what he said^

If this is intended for PvP I'd love to see you add some Daze to your bar. PLague signet seems an odd choice for an elite considering you're only transfering cracked armor...

Neat interaction with Chest Thumper!

Wouldn't go for Wearying as constantly PSing Weakness will really screw your adren build-up. Barbed is fine, the more triggers for Disrupting the better.

GG!

RavagerOfDreams · May 20, 2008, 12:09 AM // 00:09

dunno why you would use barbed when you already get the bleeding from rip though

Magikarp · May 20, 2008, 01:20 AM // 01:20

not everyone is enchanted, you can spread it as easily as a ranger spreads poison w/ apply, and its a great pretrigger for disrupting.

i'd LOVE to be able to squeeze spear swipe in ALL of the time, but i cant, unless its in AB.

why not use Plague Sending instead? transfers conditions to both target and adjacent foes, same cast time, only 1 energy, and only 1 second longer recharge. only downside is the 10% life sac, but that shouldn't be a big deal for a paragon.

Aggressive Refrain
Wearying Spear
Plague Sending
Chest Thumper

and you can still use your choice elite. for example, stunning strike.

Magikarp · May 20, 2008, 04:32 AM // 04:32

because the use of Weary wouldn't be worth is gap of use while you wait for either Plague skill to recharge. you basically cut condition pressure for an oddball dps skill.

Good call, also see this thread:

Condition immunity + condition spam is very nice.

Needs more shouts.

It can be different to your common Paragon build, but I'm doubting it's effectiveness.

Magikarp · May 21, 2008, 01:11 AM // 01:11

its something to definitely give a whirl if you want to try something fairly new. its a really odd thing to face so i've heard.

Golgotha · May 30, 2008, 02:05 AM // 02:05

If you coupled this with another Para using [skill]Maiming Spear[/skill] and [skill]Stunning Strike[/skill], you'd have constant cripple, bleeding, deep wound, cracked armor and dazed.

Magikarp · May 30, 2008, 02:18 AM // 02:18

i thought the same thing. its a nasty little combo

Maybe throw in a little /Me Epidemic for those little control point camper groups. Imagine a nuker having a free shot at a bunch of crippled and dazed foes. Good times.

Magikarp · May 30, 2008, 02:53 AM // 02:53

so something like my P/N build, paired with a P/Me with epidemic and maybe a couple utility shouts too.
