Just saying that I know the bar is greatly crippled that way, I'm just trying to think outside the box. Could go WoW instead of Shadow, but for the sole purpose of dealing with sinsplits the former is useless.

How is it useless? They won't always have rigor up and they can only put it on 1 person every 20 seconds, which also happens to be the recharge of weapon of shadow.

You could run resilient instead of shadow (we run neither) but armor really doesnt do that much vs sins anyway, I'd just spam Remedy + Wielders if they use Rigor, and Warding if they don't.

I thought 2 E/D's could handle it, but the sins would still be able to jump on your flagger, and if they're good, score NPC kills while you are running around the base.

Going MH might work - 2 rangers and a "splitadin" could probably overpower that split all game, while still allowing stand team to push for morales, even take down NPCs. With sufficient snares on the split (cripshot), I think collapses would be hard for an enemy sinsplit to perform, as well.

Although the MH build may work, a lot of the ideas generated around it forget the fact that it's not just a simple matter of "overpowering" their split. They forget that sineptitude has 2 easily splittable ineptitude mesmers that can follow your warriors around and make them pretty useless. You'd imagine that'd force an 8v8 situation where you can hopefully have an advantage, but in reality, they'd just toss their 2149 snares and run the sins away from your damage, killing off a side archer at a time.

The concept behind MH build is that it is very physical heavy. If they split off Inep Mesmers to deal with your Warrior/Ranger then they lose their stand defense against two more Warriors and another Ranger.
