VwK after SV/AV nerf

Mantra of Reslove KTHXBAI im still VwK Rting in uw as i spk WINNER!! Umm.. switch it for soothing memories

What do you have, 30 energy max? You should have ~50 with the staff, so no problems with emanagement. I use Physical Resistance + Illusion of Haste at the beginning

50-10= 40 (PR) 40-10 = 30 (IoH)

I run back, the nrj recharges a bit, now I have 40 point when the fight starts.

Cast SV

40-10= 30

Cast Echo

30-15 = 15

Cast VwK

15-5 = 10
(ashes prevent me from using the staff) 10-15= -5

It's not a good management, considering that just after VwK I have to cast AV because SV is over...

First, cast PR wait little (I wait until my energy is full) then cast IOH and aggro. When you wait for them to use interrupts, your energy should be full again then cast AV or SV then echo and VwK. Is the same as before for me, no problem at all.

- Physical resistance
- Illusion of haste
- run to graspen en lure them, run away to the circle
- then I wait but they don't do interrupt, then at the moment I want to do AV they interrupt, then I do SV and again intterupt
Then I try echo, well you can guess, they drained my energy from 50 to 0 with that stupid skill of them and I'm dead

Now with matra of resolve
- mantra of resolve
- illusion of haste
- lure them and cast AV
- Echo
- and suddenly they removed: Mantra of Resolve (still clueless how they do that since non of there skill allow them to remove a stance, and if I check my skills it should stay there for 60 seconds and I'm 100% sure it did not run out of time)
- and then I try VwK but well they interrupt each few seconds or something, or at least when the first does, afther that the second then third and when last is done, first does interrupt again.

All by all I did farm before the nerf a lot, and now I just can't do it. With the Mantra of Resolve it worked 1 time, a day later it seamed they added an update or something, because there was no way I could do it again.

Also SV and AV run already out of time when you first cast before lure, when they start to attack it's all gone and quite useless to use. I just don't get why Anet had to Nerf that freaking skill, I'm 100% sure it was not a tactical something for PvP but just to get rid of farmers althought they don't want to say that in your freaking face, they keep saying "No we don't have something again farming" Well why the hell you nerf the skills then if they are not even used in PvP at all.

As far I know it's for me, RIP Rit, Spirit spammer = dead, channeling sucks without armor penestration, Restoration seams to be the only thing that keeps alive, and Spawning, well who the hell uses it?

God, you're ignorant. GO read the other threads, go observe matches, go play some ra... rits are steadily being invited to mainstream GW.

And if thought it out more carefully... and you KNOW they save their interrupt till you cast... then just cast soothing memories, or vengeful weapon >.> they'll try to interuppt, but sometimes you'll get lucky and vengeful will cast faster... and waste their interrupt as well. Seriously, instead of brainlessly pressing the same buttons, all it requires now is pacing... and thinking >.>

I'm not a good player by any means, and if I can do this, im more than sure any other player in GW can too. PM ingame if you would like to see it done.

- and suddenly they removed: Mantra of Resolve (still clueless how they do that since non of there skill allow them to remove a stance, and if I check my skills it should stay there for 60 seconds and I'm 100% sure it did not run out of time) As per the skill description, i believe the skill is ending because your energy is hitting zero.

As far as VwK Rit for soloing UW, as most here have said it IS still doable. More risky, more dangerous but doable. I had been soloing UW often with my rit since early faction days, but simply find it too dangerous now. Even with having lots of experience i find my death rate a bit too high... like 1 out of 4 runs i die.

i have been running a variation of Witte Was' UW warrior build, which is quite safe, simple to use and with variations can do the smite run only slightly slower then the VwK Rit... try it out.

His build is made to go past smites, so i changed it quite a bit to be able to synergize and increase dmg output making my Smite runs quite fast... anyway... GL!

cheers!
