A Stomping Build
Alright, so here's a brief intro to this somewhat unconventional build idea:
The major points to this build are:
Knockdowns
Ward Against Foes
Nature's Renewal
Enemy party wide condition based health degeneration
Disenchantment
Basically, the first 3 players keep up an environment where damage comes at a predictable pace. Since there is NR, Prot will be supplied in the form of fast cast Weapon Spells.
The offensive end will be supported by the Stomper who will use Stomp + Earthquake to constantly knock down multiple enemies for 3 seconds and have them take bleeding. Combined with the Wards Against Foes, it will be a very difficult environment for the enemy to move about in the battle. Also the interrupts will be nasty. The stomper will be off target, he will simply engage enemy concentrations of opportunity.
A necro will take advantage of slowed enemies to use Chillblains comboed with plague sending. The bleeding from knockdowns will setup nicely for Virulence. Well of Profane further limits enemy movement.
Whirlwind is used so that the player being attacked can knock down his foes and get a nice 3 sec head start in kitting. By which time he can already call for a weapons spell and be proted.
A two man gank group will kill individual enemies. The first is an axe warrior who will use Unseen Fury. This will negate all sorts of passive anti-warrior abilities, stances, enchants, so on. Blinding (so that Unseenfury will work) and knockdowns will be provided courtasy of the E/N, who BTW can also disenchant if necessary.
