New Hex degen build. there are only 2 monks so its either die fast or win fast, usually win fast xD. we have been holding halls with it because of its mass interupts and major ressure, we held halls 8 time one niht and usually get around 5-6 consec a run so its pretty good, comment plz.

Looks reasonably strong offensively. Some nice degen pressure, and you could also spike pretty well with it. Evis + Evec, Two Desecrates, and Gale on both the off monks. Coordinated right that could be quite nasty. I've never found Faintheartedness and Spiteful to mix really well as warrior hate though. Seems like Price of Failure might be stronger in that spot, especially since it combos so well with Reckless Haste. A second copy of Reckless wouldn't be bad either - Malaise just doesn't do that much against good focus swapping.

The backline I'm not at all sure about, but I'm not very familiar with HA backlines. Maybe it's standard there, but it just doesn't seem like it would have enough healing power, especially against all the heavy pressure builds in HA. I guess the hex support would help.

I am a huge fan of two monk backlines in HA (though I prefer to have a /Mo take heal party in those types of builds). The necromancers have no energy management if deaths are not occurring, so this is the aspect of the build that needs the most attention because it could affect hexing output in a prolonged battle. If you can get by without convert hexes, then power drain would give you more interrupts and extra energy management (the migrainers' copies of power drain could be switched to inspired hex if you want to keep a lot of hex removal). Also, why do the necromancers need desecrate and defile?

I agree with Squidget's comment about malaise being too easy to counter. However, I see no problem with having faintheartedness in a build that has spiteful. I would drop one copy of faintheart for price of failure and malaise for a second copy of reckless haste.

A clever team would just wait until the infuser uses Gift of Health and pull a spike off while it is disabled. I'm not too sure about those monk backlines, but you have plenty of nice degen and as Squidget said, you will also be able to perform some pretty good spikes.
I wouldn't take Desecrate and Defile.. maybe you could have Aegis or Extinguish in the spare slot?

maby defile flesh

sir tydas · Sep 21, 2006, 06:53 AM // 06:53

We did not need a backup heal party becase both migraines would be on 2 of the 3 monks the heal and the infuse thats leaving the rc prot left that doesnty heal, the 2 ss on the warrior and cg's, then our CG on their warder or tainted. Then because the monks cannot heal the warrior have to stop attacking because of ss and there has been many times when i have faced dual smite an put ss on smiter and then on the warrior and the warrior frenzy's = 70+ dmg and then desecrat and defile enchant then = 300-400dmg. as i sed u die fast or u win fast usually win because the other team cant do s**t

sir tydas · Sep 21, 2006, 06:55 AM // 06:55

Jiao Yang our main killiing power is defile and desecrate u should try this build the aoe dmg off then is awesome if there are warders they all ball same vs vim tend to ball on rushalot of the teams damage is in the necros, so takin defile and desecrate out of the build is just stupid

Divineshadows i will drop 1 faintheartedness for price of failure and try it out

Poison Ivy · Sep 21, 2006, 07:00 AM // 07:00

Replace Axe Rake for Bull's Strike.

Also let one of your Necros take out Faintheartedness for a Extinguish.

Might not work :S

I wouldn't sub it out for extinguish, but it probably should be subbed out.

Does look like it would be fun to run though.
