The first slot warrior isn't bad except for sav slash - that skill should be locked in an iron chest in an abandoned basement. If you want interrupt capability, distracting blow will do you just fine. And if you're looking to make this guy pressure, I'd fit a "Fear Me!" in there somewhere, like in exchange for final thrust or your interrupt. With swords, spamming adrenaline shouts is easy and effective.
That said, I think a hammer would do you better in that slot. Devastating hammer, crushing blow, mighty blow- and ditch the adrenaline shout for "shields up! The shock-axe has bonettis defense, which may be the least effective pvp stance in the game (even dwarven has some usefulness). Get a bull's strike instead of bonettis, and a rush instead of penetrating blow, and you'll have a respectable set of warrior skills. Also, I'd redo the attribs to 12+1+3 axe, 9+1 str, 9 air so you can have an air focus to counter exhaustion. Ranger spirits are next to useless in GvG, and traps take wilderness survival to be any good. If you're running crip shot, i would strongly advise 12+1+3 expertise, as well. I think this ranger needs to be re-thought from the beginning..sorry. The elementalist build is rather solid. Though, you got two exhausting skills, which could quickly turn into a big ouch. I'd advise subbing out gale for lightning strike. I'd advise inspired hex on both monks, and signet of devotion on both monks. If they're the only hex control, you'll have to sqeeze in a revealed hex, holy veil, or remove hex, also. Probably looking to sub-out guardian then. The philosophy on the necro is something out of HA. In GvG, a team can simply move away from wells, and corpses won't often be anywhere to make putrid explosion effective. I'd re-think this slot entirely. The mesmer will likely be going against boon-prots, which have very short cast times. The only interrupt you'll need on an e/d is power drain, which is quick energy when used against an ele or necro. Sub out power drain for energy burn, IMO. This is all my personal take, so feel free to disregard. |

We are new to GvG, so thanks for the input.
so far we are having problems facing spike builds like ranger,necro, and elementalist and we dont know how to counter them. If you have any more Suggestion on this build that can help us please feel free to add in. We don't use Team Speak because we are just a laptop away from each other.

If you are having trouble facing spike, the easiest thing you can do is put cry of frustration on the dom mesmer. Cry, along with some well timed diversions can go a long way against pure spike teams. Also think about subbing in something more useful for the necro slot, perhaps another mesmer. Against spike interruption is key, think about even putting in distracting blow for penetrating blow on the axe warrior. Putting more interruption into your build is almost never a bad thing, considering that interruption is pretty strong against almost any team not just spike.
Replace concussion shot with distracting shot on the ranger (although Byron is right that ranger needs to be heavily reworked). Last edited by SaintGreg; May 05, 2006 at 04:58 AM // 04:58.. |

Ranger - standard cripshot
Expertise: 12+3+1 Marksmanship: 7+1 Wilderness Survival: 6+1 Illusion: 8 Domination: 5 Crippling Shot [e] Savage Shot Distracting Shot Apply Poison Blackout Distortion Troll Unguent Resurrection Signet +33% cripple bowstring Running concussion as well as cripshot is going to run you into the ground, so I would drop it. Blackout is great on a ranger used as an adrenaline resetter on warriors, and distortion/troll gives decent stamina for attacking the enemy base. Apply still gives the conditional degen. Your axe warrior has nothing to cancel frenzy, which is going to result in painful conclusions. They also have no speed buff. Drop bulls for sprint. Also, drop Endure for healing signet. Endure is good, but its a case of healing signet having more usefullness overall. Thats not a bad charge warrior, they are always hard to get together. However, you have no ias, which is basically crippling. I suggest you move to galrath slash/final thrust/frenzy/sprint/charge/res sig/healing sig/ fearme OR shock OR plague touch You can't expect to kill a lot, but you can spike support the axe warrior, and with fear me! you can exert a decent level of pressure, along with charge! The necro is also lacking really. You dont have enough energy to spam heal party, especially with well of the profane. If you need corpse control, just get consume and be done with it. For the rest of the build, pick out a mix of shadowoffear/faintheartedness/lifesiphon/malaise/shadowstrike/parasiticbond/vampgaze/rendenchantments/drawconditions/enfeeble/priceoffailure. Pick some you like.. but basically as a necro you want some warrior hate, a bit of degen and spike support. |

Thanks for the Ranger input, my guild and i will rethink of a Necro build but will also serve as some what of a battery to keep everyone going. Maybe Offering Of Blood, Blood Ritual, and Healing Breeze together

I like the edited build a lot better (considering you took most of my opinions to action), and hope your guild has success running it.

We ran a similar build like you and encountered problems with spikes as well. The suggestion on taking interupts like CoF is a good one. Also splitting and kiting can do wonders.
One more remark: your defense line consists of 2 monks and a HP spamming ele, with the new skills around 2 full boon prots are dangerous. Maybe you should check the threads on shadow shroud. It can effectively reduce your healing to HP and sig of dev only... Also I think you concentrated to much hex removal on the monks (you have sufficient! thats not the problem...). Facing a degen team this might become a problem if they monks are pressured to much. Maybe adding a hex removal in a mesmer (prim or sec) would be nice. |

Might want to look into a rit build and you might want to have something for anti rits. The simple fact that a rit can stop a spike long enough to keep your people alive and completely stop a pressure build, especially yours, might be something to take a look at.
