well i've been doing HA for some time now, am ranked but don't have quite lots of fame, and was srsly wondering what would be the best build to run nowadays in HA... did every build imaginable so far, but still its kinda slow... so any ideas or an advice would be helpfull

mods pls close this thread if needeed

Imo Balanced.
You learn along the way, unlike those icky c-space and buttonmash builds like the Escape Scythe Ranger.

But keep in mind the entire team needs to be good for a decent balanced.

hehe yeah i thought so, but since i'm kinda lowranked, don't have quite a lot of fame, its kinda hard to get good players-i mean the players that u might actually get lucky with and win HoH at least once a week...

There isn't any point in lying here... Balanced = fail...

Balanced left GW when NF was introduced. (Legoway != balanced, 4 Fire eles + warrior and mesmer != balanced)

As much as I hate to say it, R/D shitway is probably your best bet... If you want fame along, roll a R/D and off you go. However, do realize that you're going to play a game, not for fun, but for some number, written on one of Anet's servers... Fame is nothing more than a number, keep that in mind, because it's something 99% of HA has forgotten. They live under the illusion that having alot of fame will get them succes in a later life...

fame farm=bad
get better at playing the game first and then fame will come faster
plus you will have more fun if your not grinding for fame and constantly pressing H to see how much fame you got

swift88 · Mar 22, 2008, 10:26 PM // 22:26

Farming is bad,just play to win don't play to earn fame.

Builds that really get you allot of fame are builds that are good in halls, so N/Rt's not so much.

And builds that have some utility.

Not true. Well for unranked players anyway. Some people here are posting about balanced and saying that's the best way to get fame, but to be perfectly honest I really doubt it. Unranked balanced can't get past underworld 99% of the time, it's not really a surprise though considering the experience you need to play a decent balanced. Forget about holding, forget about halls altogether, the only way you'll get there unranked in an unranked pug is if you skip from UW, fetid or possibly burial.

R/Dway is your best beat for certain, yeah it's lame but it's gets you out of the unranked groove and once your out of that alot of more options become available, it's when people don't stop playing r/dway after rank 4/5 that things get stupid and people don't learn. R/Dway is fine as a starting point.

Dallcingi · Mar 23, 2008, 03:16 PM // 15:16

sway all the way lol... agreed with what eddie said. get r6 then try other builds!

yakuza · Mar 23, 2008, 04:20 PM // 16:20
