Curse

Hey,

I can't play gw atm, so am just making a few random builds. Please comment. I saw a smiter build on gwshack and realized that Dervishes could work well with RoF spam. If someone can offer a good monk build for it I would be grateful. I can't test it, but I'm guessing that the warrior would do huge damage, especially with judge's.

I think there should be a general rule that builds shouldn't be posted here unless they've been tested at least once. No offense, just that the only sort of stuff that can come out of any discussion like this is theorycraft.

Unlike most team builds, at least it's not based on an agonizingly terrible concept that simply does not work. However, some points:

I don't like the Dervish. At all. Three of its skills dump enchantments, yet the enchantments in the build are for the most part too important to dump.

Replace Pious Assault with Mystic Sweep. What is Test of Faith used for anyway? If you want to burn enchants off, run Grenth. Replace it with a rez sig. Eremite's Zeal seems pointless when RoF will be providing huge amounts of energy. It's also worse than Zealous Renewal (which would also serve as more fuel for mystic sweep). Better yet, replace it with Harrier's Grasp.

Why are you using Vengeance?

Aside from that, it might work.

Ok, I took your advice and changed things around.

I kept pious and rending just b/c part of my goal of the build is to have a derv that works well with RoF spam, otherwise i might as well not have a smiter I think, b/c I could use another char that might work better with the build.

I'm not sure about song, but one of the main probs in a 4v4 is that everyone is like, "wtf rez" and the other guy is like "dshotted dude, chill" and then everyone is like "ok, just resign" so maybe song could help there. Plus i put aegis on the monk for 20 secs of theoretical blocking.

thx for the feedback.
