ROONDOOM AROONAS.

TIP:[healing breeze][mending][flare][i will avenge you]
^ These are not good skills. You should never use them in RA. They're bad. All bad. Never will they work. EVER. You'll find yourself recieving significantly less royal-ass-beatings and less rage from your teammates when you stop using these skills. Mending's a tough habit to kick i know I KNOW, but you can do it champ.

TIP:
A warrior with a level 5 pet and pet attacks will never win. You love your menagerie but learn how to use it, your level 5 pet will get mollywhopped from one palm strike and do no damage.

TIP:
55 monk builds do not work in random arenas. No i'm sorry, you cannot solo farm PvP.

TIP:
If you're a sword warrior, [barbed arrows] will have no effect on your sword attacks. Read the skill description very carefully, and don't stop till you've got it. Good!

(The same goes for spears, scythes, axes, and hell, anything other than arrows. Get it now?)

TIP:
You can't tank in PvP. You cannot load your PvE template obsidian flesh warrior and expect to pull aggro and have your team farm the foes relentlessly attacking you. You'll just be sitting there moving slow with your dolyak signet, being nothing but a sitting duck, and that's just silly.

ZOMGWIKI yes, once you drop the healing breeze/flare you can begin the step-by-step process... which goes as follows:
1. Familiarize yourself with popular, yet effective builds.
2. You'll definitely like not getting slammed in the face with every match you enter, and hopefully grasp a concept of what is good/bad in the PvP world of guild wars.
3. Take some time learning how the game works and stop being bad at the game
4. Once you've got that, you can finally make your own builds, but with your brand spanking new knowledge of the game, those builds will be effective!

I can't help but feel as if i'm doing such a big favor to the community! Imagine if all the people in RA read this and took heed to my advice. Well, that won't happen, but till then i'm changing the world of guiltworz one clueless button masher at a time! You know, i do what i can.

I strongly suggest adding your own tips to furthermore help the PvE community struggling with Zaishen Combat.

(one last tip, giving 'tips' slandering OP is so played out, just don't, for your own sake, don't, i know you want to... but don't. How embarrassing.)

[defy pain][griffon's sweep][dolyak signet][healing breeze][barbarous slice][endure pain][counterattack][resurrection signet]

example of what not to do.

as to the healing breeze, it can be effective if you are splitting. other than that i never want to see that skill being used in pvp.

lulz, so those level 5 pets are from menagerie lol
saw some warrs with lv5 pets, no pets attacks sadly.
1 golder rule for RA:
go as monk, and you will win.

What's wrong with Healing Breeze? It's a good self-heal that can also target allies, 8 points into Healing Prayers for over 200 health healed. For professions with a free secondary, insufficient healing in their primary class and enough points to spare (I'm thinking in particular of Elementalists) I don't see anything wrong with it.

i wouldnt advise taking healing breeze on a monk

Good Guide, helped me a lot.
Could you post a similar guide for the Stygian Veil quest?

kthxbye

Theli · Apr 30, 2009, 01:04 PM // 13:04

TIP: Do not play random arena the same day that the quest is given, same goes for JQ and FA, cause they are random, y had to play with suxons JQ (shame on me).

Wait a few days with the quest in your log, and sync with your guildies

but in other cases..TA, HA...yes play, its more funnier that the usual.

You didn't mention some very important skills that we should be using! [Sever Artery]+[Virulence] is epic win! My PvP warrior has 5 skill points from that!

[blazing spear][virulence]

might be kewl on a necro, usable with what 3-6 spear mastery but really anything aside from meta is fail.

Cale Roughstar · May 01, 2009, 02:54 AM // 02:54

[Aura Of The Lich]+[Strength of Honor](for teh minionz!) Who said smite monks are bad?

Thats Too Bad · May 01, 2009, 03:44 AM // 03:44

This is why international can single handedly take on all the other districts...

The OP contains false information.

Anything works in RA.

Anything.
