I hear the build is still working well- I wonder if anyone's tried Revive Animal, and if they have, what were the results? I'd be most worried about the blackout, but can't test it myself right now.

I wouldn't take Revive Animal, because shouts can reuse pet bodies.... and since you'll only revive them just for them to die again and have a 8 second blackout.

we thought about trying this, but the occasion taht you need to move the corpses arises so un-often its not worth the slot/25 energy

Makes you thing there should be some sort of shutdown for shouts -.-. Its one of the few things in the game that doesnt have a viable counter, except in this case, probably healing ball. I thought some sort of shout spamming would become popular but i didnt see anything like this coming up :S. Nice build, thankfully i havent run into it yet.

If you haven't seen it that's because shouts don't appear in the skill indicator, only as text above people's heads.

Fear Me, Watch Yourself, To the Limit are some of the best shouts in the game, particularly on altar/dais maps, and they are used/have been used frequently.

Fear Me is really a good energy deprival build
ie what iQ used not so long ago

Fear Me + Signet of Weariness = complete energy deprival
fear me is spammable which means its good

You mean just like how people said there is no way to shutdown spirits? As usual, people expect ANet to nerf instead of finding a way to counter it. Warriors really aren't that scary with all the great spells that can cause % chance to miss. Ward against Melee being the most commonly used and something like Blurred Vision being rarely used. IWAY will fade once people realize all the easy counters.

No need to nerf shouts. Someone already mentions Mist form, and I can see an E/Me hydromancer (or a Me/E) using Mist form and Distortion to avoid damage from this build. Mist form covers up to 20 sec, and remaining 10 sec can be covered with spammable Distortion. If coupled that with Spirit of Failure and Attunement, you can spam your favorite spell 24/7. But being a ranger and warrior player myself, it's nice to see some dark horse builds or guilds like this dominating HOH once a while.

Have Me/Range Tried using Energy burn to waste thier energy (speed up skills with serpt stance), while Mo/Nec use Soothing, Put Explo, & Faint to make them less useful?

Wow..you Bumped up a thread from 2 months ago.

Like most people in this thread stated it would be- IWAY has been the flavor of the month for a few months now, I hear its slowly going off though.

You had it where W/Rs would just start up, throw charm animal on their skillbar, and think their god.

Now IWAY has the power to get to the halls if they fight the right teams, but have absolutely no staying power now people know that they can expect them.

Kry Onicle · Nov 24, 2005, 10:47 PM // 22:47

IWAY teams should try against a team of Spitefulspirit Echo'ers. All the dmg with them attacking at an increased rate, they'd be dead in a matter of seconds. Really wanna put this team build to a test. Anyone who's up for it PM me ^^

The Son Of Morgoth · Nov 25, 2005, 07:37 AM // 07:37

i hate IWAY so much...

Experiment_Jon · Nov 25, 2005, 08:13 AM // 08:13

This is probably the first IWAY thread. Very nice that we found it again.

I'd love to help... I just got my necro using curses. I happened to cap Spiteful and have been using it since... *heart pounds in chest just thinking about it*

I dunno i joined yesterday. I was wondering why everyone was so enthusiastic lol. IWAY sickens me to the core.

It wasn't infesting tombs like a disease when I posted those images.

I am so sorry.

(still, it was hilarious to hold halls with 8 W/Rs

)

Kabale · Dec 14, 2005, 01:08 PM // 13:08

Heheh yeah nice thread to bring up. "The evolution of IWAY", and when it was brough up 2 months later, people saying it's like a disease and infesting tombs rofl...

Sharpe_116 · Dec 15, 2005, 10:00 PM // 22:00
