if you really dislike Backbreaker you can play with different elites, yeah those unused elites from the Tactics and Strength lines...

also, I notice neither Warrior has a self heal or some sort of defensive skill. with the Lod nerf it's pretty mandatory for the other chars to pick up the slack...

I think your Monks will be better off without Aegis and GoLE but with small cheap prots and some self survival skills, Return and/or Dark Escape, Shield Bash and/or Defensive/Disciplined Stance, Natural Stride, etc...

as for your Sin, if you want it to go solo than AoD is probably the way to go, if you want to send him on some sort of split you can work out better options. the unblockable Shattering Assault combo is devastating, and so are some other unused combos due to the over popularity of the SP Sins...

I think the Surge+Burn combo is pretty weak compared to the newer options the Mesmers received. and whichever way you choose to go with your Dom Mesmer you forgot the most important skill on a Dom Mesmer's bar: Blackout!
just think of the possibilities, the Hammer Warrior knocks 1 of the Monks down for 4 seconds while the Dom Mesmer Blackouts the other. so you have 4 Monk free seconds! imagine what your team can do with such a luxury.
You don't know what you're talking about. Blackout is horrible after the how many nerfs it took? Are you seriously advocating having a mesmer run into your opponent's backline to blackout a monk? Have fun with that. Devastating + hammer bash combined with good timing allows 6 seconds of straight KD with <1/4sec in between.

And did you just seriously advocate running a tactics or strength elite? What possible elite would make you want to lose an elite hammer attack (the backbone of hammer warriors).

Rush cancels flail before a hammer bash, enraging cancels afterwards and provides adren. Thats the most efficient use of the bar that I can think of.

I'd rather that warriors kill stuff. They probably won't be splitting pro-actively with the sin on the gank. And if the damage needs to split, then there will be heals (99% flagger) with them.
