Default Your Ideal Bodyguard/Guild Lord skill bar

Hi all

What would be included in your dream Bodyguard/Guild Lord skill bar? Would you make a healing/protting Bodyguard? Would your Guild Lord have defensive stances?

Rules for the thread:

Bodyguard Skill bar

- limited to 6 skills excluding Oath of Healing
- can use any combination of two classes
- only 1 elite
- no duplication of skills allowed unless through Echo/Arcane Echo/Glyph of Renewal etc
- Bodyguard is able to switch between the weapons of the classes you give him

Guild Lord Skill bar

- limited to 4 skills excluding Victory or Death
- can use any combination of two classes
- only 1 elite
- no duplication of skills allowed unless through Echo/Arcane Echo/Glyph of Renewal etc
- Guild Lord can switch between the weapons of the classes you give him

use the following code to make your bars

[ skill]Distracting Shot[/skill]

(change [ skill] to [skill])

Bodyguard's Original bar = [skill]Glyph of Energy[/skill][skill]Fire Attunement[/skill][skill]Fire Storm[/skill][skill]Fireball[/skill][skill]Incendiary Bonds[/skill][skill]Maelstrom[/skill]

Guild Lord's Original bar = [skill]Cleave[/skill][skill]Cyclone Axe[/skill][skill]Warrior's Cunning[/skill][skill]Power Shot[/skill]

Have fun!

Defensive stances are bad because they punish physicals. Interrupts are bad because they punish casters.

Cleave was actually a pretty good choice as just spammable high damage, I don't mind (but don't really see the point of) Cyclone Axe. I probably would have just made him a Cleave machine with Cleave + FGJ or something. Power Shot = same view as Cleave, it's fine but the damage can be a bit ridiculous.

Bodyguard is a bit more interesting, but frankly I think that bar is about as good as it can get off the top of my head.

Really the restriction is giving them skills that don't favor any kind of playstyle, removing a lot of their impact on play.

Bodyguard:
[skill]Mind Blast[/skill][skill]Rodgort's Invocation[/skill][skill]Fire attunement[/skill][skill]Searing Heat[/skill][skill]Fireball[/skill][skill]Animate Bone Minions[/skill]

Animate Guild Minions FTW
Giving the Body Guard more AoE firepower will make him a higher priority I think, and maybe even more of a target for interrupters...

Guild Lord:
[skill]Earth Shaker[/skill][skill]Counter Blow[/skill][skill]Power Shot[/skill][skill]charm animal[/skill]

GUILD PET FTW!!!
I would love to see the Guild Lord with Earth Shaker... see him KD a bunch of people would be awesome

you forgot Gale and Shard Storm on the bodyguard...

could also have pin down on the lord, with Concussion Shot to interrupt WoH.

But wait... wouldnt it be easier to just give Archers Crip Shot?
