Default Odd question regarding a very old GvG build...

There's just a little thing bugging me because I bumped into a team tonight using almost the same builds as one you used in an old teambuild in GvG and what's bugging me now is I can't seem to remember to the name of it nor can I find it because it's too old to be on any builds site.

I already asked alot of friends and they also know what build I'm talking about, just can't remember the name either. So please stop this from eating me further and tell me what it was called lol

A description of the teambuild:
3 warriors; 1 with conjure air, 1 conjure flame, 1 conjure frost.

The build is really old, but it's eating me not remembering the name of it

Any help appriciated ^^

There was a few weeks after the derv-smite meta where three warriors was popular. Usually there was a dev hammer, a eviscerate axe, and a conjure cripslash or dragonslash warrior coupled with a cripshot ranger and a generic midline character (dom mes, B surge etc). I don't remember there being a meta with three conjure warriors, however there might have been one before I started playing.

but at any rate triple warrior builds are bad in the current meta, just run dual paragons and /win

I can't recall there ever being a popular triple conjure warrior build, and if anyone did play that it wouldn't have had any special name based on three different conjure skills (that would just be to avoid any specific +AL elemental shield). There was maybe a week or two where conjure warriors were all the rage when those skills got over-buffed, I think with eF popularizing it.

Well all I really remember with it is the 3 conjure warriors, but I know the build had a special name... The fact that bugs me is I even had that build on a backup, but somehow I can't find it. This was played btw using an orders necro if that helps further to recall the name and we're talking about a build being at least 3-4 years old. :P

If the build had orders they wouldn't be able to run 3 conjure warriors. (orders only works on physical dmg)

I remember triple warrior builds,they were used with a SoJ smite mesmer mantaining SoH on all three and using Humility and stuff for pressure.
That was when they decided to nerf mantra of inscriptions and such.

This is when I question how long you have been playing? Anyway the build used to be on wiki and even in the archive, but for some reason isn't anymore, anyone know any "index"-site with old wiki builds?

About the stuff how long you have been playing I don't mean no disrespect, but as I take it naturally you been playing for quite some time since you reply to my post about a very old build; do you not remember when orders affected all types of dmg as long as it was hit by melee-weapons?

This is actually starting to drive me even more nuts now considering if only my hdd from my old computer had been working I could just tell everyone here the build

But there might be an old index of old outdated wiki builds somewhere... just need to find that...

Sorry syphar order of pain always triggered on physical damage. I even went so far as to check the updates of 2005 for bug fixes in case it was an early bug.

You wont be able to find it on wiki's archives as they had a builds wipe and started afresh with a new wiki dedicated for builds (PvX).

The only thing I can recall similiar to what you are saying is when the build with a hammer, sword and axe warrior became popular. I new it as triple melee or triple warrior. This was post NF release, so chances are its not what you are after.

My best result for you is a very old GvG build used by WM comprising of 4 W/Es; 1 hammer, 2 axes and a "Charge!" sword. You can try browsing on this page for more old GvG builds. Good luck.

It wasn't a GvG build, but I remember playing against it in Tombs.

It was before the Conjure nerf, possibly before NF. I think it may have had MoP - I remember it was 3 sword warriors with SaMS for sure.

i remember dying and seeing a dozen little packets of damage because of all the conjures.

Are you kidding me? That's an insult.

Three conjure warriors only really existed in that brief period when conjure got buffed too much, before it was toned back some.
