Curse

For this build you spike with the three Eles and the two Warriors.

The three eles all have some defensive skills for holding.

I went for a Blessed Light prot instead of RC or Martyr because the build already has two off monk Extinguishes which should be enough to combat disease and traps efficiently. I'm curious about Life Sheath, I might try both.

The build has no Corpse Control, which sucks, but I don't know where to put it.

If the spike isn't killing targets, suck less imo.

PS: JR, how do I get colors

I would have all the wards on a Earth ele spiking with Obs flame as they aren't gona last long with 5-6 in earth magic.

Run 9 air magic, get the offhand for extra energy...13 strenght is overkill IMO

For a warrior spike I think you need more constant pressure/shutdown to offbalance the monks if you dont do that you might as well be a rainbow spike build with a ranger and pp mesmer as any go prot can pre buff the targets you are attacking.

Audioaxes, you're right on your point that this build needs more pressure/shutdown, that's why I'd put a gale on the ele's, so they can gale the monks while the warrior spike.

But, putting in a ranger ( unless he's Oathshot fs+symb spammer ) and a pp mesmer, will downgrade this build's holding capacity.

Then I'd have to run Glyph of Energy or face exhaustion. This would greatly reduce the effectiveness of the Ele when holding because he doesn't have the energy management for all of his monk skills.

That's really just a matter of not having shitty warriors.

Agreed, good suggestion.

I would prefer going with at least 2 earth warders

Like these:

Elementalist/Monk
Level: 20

Energy Storage: 9 (8+1)
Earth Magic: 16 (12+3+1)
Healing prayers: 10 (10)

Glyph of Energy [Elite]
Earthquake
obsidian flame
ward against foes / ward against melee
ward of stabilty
heal party
gift of health
resurrection signet

Having the ability of launcing 2 AoE KD's every 15 seconds on altar maps will certainly improve the chance of getting the altar + it helps in other ways(lottery interrupt ftw) + you still have some healing power (keep in mind that Glyph of Energy is still one of the best Energy mangements if you manage to max out it's effect every time).

BTW: in builds with Ward of stability and enough heals, you migt consider going without a SB on a monk.
