Curse

So i am currently going through eye of the north, and was wondering if you guys had any suggestions for a build to use when in the dungeons. I'd like to try out an earth build but if that isn't really suitable, i dont mind another element.

Could you please tell me what runes/insignias to have on my armor and also what weapon set would be good?

I'm not trying to solo, i am usually in a full party, and i dont mind using support skills like wards.

Thanks

check http://www.pvxwiki.com/wiki/Main_Page
it will not only give you the build, it will tell you what gear you need to run it. GL!

[build prof=E/N earthmagic=12+1+1; energy=8+1; curses=10][Earth Attunement][Glyph of Lesser Energy][Ward Against Melee][Enfeebling Blood][Unsteady Ground][Stoning][Glowstone][Eruption][/build]
(switch the ward for whatever ward suits best)

[build prof=E/Me airmagic=12+1+1; energy=12+1][Elemental Attunement][Air Attunement][Blinding Flash][Lightning Orb][Lightning Hammer][Epidemic]["You Move Like A Dwarf!"][No Skill][/build]
+ a skill of your choice ([[Power Drain], [[Cry of Frustration], [[Pain Inverter], [["Finish Him!"]...etc...)

Either of those in my opinion. Or something with fire. Lots of fire. Burn them all.

...or something new and funky with [[Ether Renewal].

There are lots of good builds. Use those as a starting point if you like, and develop your own, come back and post it and ask for opinions. Creating a build and receiving criticism / suggestions is the best way to learn.

Also...look at this thread.

I'd recommend some sort of Warder (combined with some sort of DPS), with the wards changing depending on the area you're doing. Ones I'd consider are (like pick 2 or 3):

[ebon battle standard of wisdom][ebon battle standard of courage][ward of stability][ward against melee][ward of stability]

Elites to consider are:

[Unsteady ground][shockwave][mind blast][sandstorm]

[earthquake]+[aftershock] is a good combo to use too (although you need to watch out for exhaustion!).

Then depending on what you have left throw in some sort of energy management-if there's alot of foes dying at once, [air of superiority] will do nicely. If not, [glyph of lesser energy] will work (depending on your build and how many PvE skills you got you could always pair the two).

Since EotN enemies have a greater chance of scatter (or so it seems!) you'd want to pair your AoE with some sort of snare or knockdown.

I've been running
[mind blast][rodgorts invocation][fireball][liquid flame][pain inverter][great dwarf weapon] or [finish him][fire attunement][optional]
for most dungeons, but an earth build i've been recently using against destroyers especially in HM is
[unsteady ground][churning earth][eruption][optional][optional][ward against melee][earth attunement][optional]
its very effective if you can time the KDs right you can keep the mobs knocked down for the majority of the battle.

I also enjoy [[glyph of energy] with [[earthquake] and [[dragon's stomp]

This is how you do it.
