N/Rt Glad Farmer

I have tried this build a few times in RA and it works surprisingly well. I'm currently on a 27/2 win streak and all of my wins were flawless except 1.

I'm playing an N/Rt because I don't really like E-Management on Ritualists.

Here are my attributes:

Soul Reaping - 8 + 1 + 1
Communing - 11
Restoration Magic - 11

Here is my skillbar:

Displacement - Nice blocking spirit, just use it as soon as it recharges.
Union - The damage mitigation is also a pretty nice addition to this build.
Life - This is the skill you will be spamming a lot, it will fuel your energy and your last 2 skills. And it will heal, of course.
Weapon of Remedy - I only used this skill a few times and after my first run I replaced it with Preservation, but yeah, my first run was ^^^ that run. If you decide to take Preservation instead, use it the same way as Life.
Vital Weapon - Another really important skill, just keep this up throughout the game unless you decide to take Weapon of Warding.
Wielder's Boon - Your main heal and mostly a filler due to it's fast cast.
Mend Body and Soul - Heal and Condition Removal.
Spirit Light - For whenever you need a big heal.

Have fun farming Gladiator points, I got 2 in a few tries and I will be doing this a lot in the future.

Nice, does it still work after Soul reaping nerf?

I only really ran out of energy once or twice, so yeah it works.

I thought everyone already knew about N/Rt resto builds.

Well, I can't find any.

Pretty much every N/Rt in any PvP aspect of GW has been running that bar you've given (with a few different skills)

So I'd say it's pretty well known.

I have no idea where you are getting your information from, but you're completely wrong...

And here's another screen.

But enough about that.

I almost laughed.

Stop posting SS's.
You got glad points using a build everyone knows about.
Nobody cares.
The build was much better pre-SR nerf.

Preservation is a pretty horrible elite.

everyone has been using N/Rts for ages.

i'm not sure why you use Vital Weapon AND Weapon of Warding because Weapon spells don't stack..

posting all those screens means nothing, i'd use a monk over it any day, it's just for bad players that need to abuse Soul Reaping because they fail at using their energy completely.

also, it's just not versatile at all, once the spirits are down and you face someone decent that knows how to keep them down or how to prevent them being cast in the first place..

i'm glad you took union out btw.

Quote: The build was much better pre-SR nerf. no. you can still abuse it way too easily.

grats on your gladpoints i guess, shame they were lamed in RA. :>

Lol yoooouuu guys
Omg he didn't know a build was popular and he posted it and how succesful it was on a forum that apparently had no posts on it before(?) so let us all flame him, even though theres nothing selfish at all about him typing it all up.


Thanks for bringin the build to my attention I will try it out soon.
I might be coming back to guild wars, its summer time and I've been looking for ways to just mindlessly waste time with builds i didnt make lately....

Here is another Glad farming build for necro. I got my last ~40 glads with it, so it works quite well. How to play it:
use reckless+price of fail on warriors (has anti synergy with adrn so it is most beneficial on warriors), if no warrior use it on dervish. After you put the above skills use insidious on sin, if no sin use it on dervish. Use corrupt enhance on the most beneficial enhance remove. For example: follow the sin with insidious, if he keeps attacking wait till he put some regain enhance and then strip it to make sure he is killed. Or you can use it as the fight start on a conjure warrior. You can use it on the monk if he uses guardian or regain elite.
N/E
corrupt enhance
reckelss haste
price of fail
insidious parasite
fainthart
parasitic bond
GOLE
res sig

Notes: Use only minor runes, you want be able to take tons of damage. Use p-bond to cover and to regain health.
Most troublesome melee is a warrior with purge-sig, trick him to use it before you use your shutdown hexs or you will be left with no energy soon and a dead party. Time your corrupt well and you will win the fight. No need to kite hexed melee, let them kill themself.

Quote: Preservation is a pretty horrible elite. True, but there aren't many good Ritualist Elites for me to take. I think about going Rt/Me with Expel Hexes though.

Quote: everyone has been using N/Rts for ages. I'm not sure why everyone keeps bringing up this argument. In every team I've been in I have been the only N/Rt. This is RA, and not HA. They are in no way related to each other, RA is the second lowest form of PvP while HA is the second highest.

Quote: i'm not sure why you use Vital Weapon AND Weapon of Warding because Weapon spells don't stack. I know this. I added Weapon of Warding later on, and I just kept Vital Weapon on my bar.

As a Monk I never have any Energy problems. The only problems I have with a Monk is that I can't get many Glad points with it because either A: I get interupted too much B: My team sucks big time. And about SR: I absolutely don't agree with you. Taking SR makes it possible for me to take an additional skill because I don't need any E-Management. (oh, and it's passive, too) Quote: also, it's just not versatile at all, once the spirits are down and you face someone decent that knows how to keep them down or how to prevent them being cast in the first place.. Good point, and I would've agreed with you on that if it wasn't RA. But it is, and most people have no idea what to do against spirits. Ranger Interrupts can be annoying, it's just that most people use them to early to be a threat. Cancel button ftw? Quote: i'm glad you took union out btw. no. you can still abuse it way too easily. grats on your gladpoints i guess, shame they were lamed in RA. :> I don't have a competitive PvP Guild and I don't like TA (too much gayway). PS: Red Orc, almost every N/ in RA plays that, just with SS/RM.

I think about going Rt/Me with Expel Hexes though. yeah, i was thinking that too, but you went N/Rt in the first place for energy management, and if you go rit primary it really is game over in RA. shame the prímary attribute is trash. :< but, weapon of remedy can be quite nice, even if it's just a fast dazed counter. and it's so funny when you can solo wammos. :P (hey, as you said; RA afterall ^^)
