How do i kill a 55 monk
Starfire Crystalite
I need a strong build for an ele/anything that can tear a 55 monk apart in solo 1 v 1. If you can suggest any pls tell me thank you

Bring anything that might strip an enchant or steal life. So you could bring an E/N with blood pumped up for Vamp Touch. Or you could go mesmer and bring a bunch of enchant stripping skills. Or necros have them too. Once the enchants are off, they're easy.
Dr Strangelove
If you can only use ele skills, probably the most humorous way would be to keep him KDed the entire time with something like thunderclap or gale, then just wait for his enchants to run out.
Or yeah, just vamp touch him.

That's the basics of killing a 55. They aren't a threat to anyone who can strip enchantments. An E/N with Rend enchantments will kill him with ease.
Don't just snatch one,since you need to know the order he is casting in, so snatch them all off at once, take the damage from the rend, and kill him.
The enchantments in use are:
[skill=card]Mending[/skill][skill=card]Essence Bond[/skill][skill=card]Protective Spirit[/skill] or [skill=card]Balthazar's Spirit[/skill]
Protective spirit is the backbone of this build's defenses. But, if he/she casts SoJ and you can't get the Prot Spirit off, then the fight will last too long. Better to Rend them all, and with his/her enchantments, his/her confidence.

Pump your blood magic up to 12
Awaken the blood
Vampiric Spirit
Then spam any low cost instant cast spell (flare for instance)
The monk has no chance, and it keeps your health topped up nicely

55 hp builds generally need constant damage (which supplies them with energy) to keep spamming protective spirit. If you apply your damage slowly, in bursts, they will feel the need to cast protective spirit, but not gain enough energy to keep supporting it. Eventually they won't have enough energy to cast prot spirit and bam!
55hp anything are just so fun to kill .

Elementalist/Necromancer, You can go like, Rend Enchantments + Lightning Strike, or Vampiric Touch at like, 12 Blood(should be like 63 damage)... Pretty much anything that removes PS/SB, or goes through it (life stealing). You could go E/Me with Shatterstorm [Elite] + Lightning strike, or whatever, too.
Zakarr
The easiest way to kill a 55 monk is to steal at least 55 life from it. One click -> dead monk.
LightningHell
Vampiric Touch.
i Valinor
degen, lifesiphon and light them on fire. or the mass degen mesmer skill. if you can stack the degen they wont last long. or keep them knocked down. thunder clap and gale.
Xpl0iter
Rend enchantment i dont mind if u die either, just take his enchantment First, lighting surge, then rend, rend removes enchantment and lighting surge gets him after 3 sec

One skill.
Gaze of Contempt. That will kill any 55, Spirit Bonder, or 135 monk if they are tanking something(Which of course if you are facing them in PvP of some sort they are tanking something). It drops everything at one time which is bad for them.
Rend Enchantment also works. You basically want anything that strips more than on enchantment because a good 55 will be able to hand just one missing

Rend enchantments + starburst or any other ele skill that does more than 55 damage. shouldnt be to hard to find
Auzi
vamp touch ftw
Voltar
probably could get away with mark of rod and wand him for that matter. who's actually using 55 in pvp?
...or is this just like a friend that's all like, "you can't kill me." if so...kill him. you only need to strip the prot spirit to kill him in one shot, rend might be a little excessive (plus it'll make you take like 120 damage) and it'll likely be the first enchantment to go (unless he has sheild of judgement on).
just like get all up on him and break prot spirit then like...flame burst him or something. stacking degen works. just too many ways to kill a 55, really.

As said before, Vamp Touch ftw.

why vampiric touch? just use vampiric gaze.
kess
if the 55 has spell breaker on, barbed signet and unholy feast will take care of it.

At 12 blood, gaze only steals 52 health, which leaves him 3 health to reheal.
Vampiric Touch or Bite is all you need - one touch and he's dead. Poof.

Vampiric Touch is a skill, so Spell Breaker won't stop it.
PanGammon
Kill the enchants you give the monk. If he does hide behind spell breaker, Vamp him........ 55 Monks suck in PvP so dont know why theres a problem........
Nero_Fayth
Burning. GG enough.
-.-
Barbed Signet or Vampiric Touch.

Vampiric Touch ftw!
at even just 9 Blood, it does 56 dmg and will kill him out right. use to love running a touch nec in AB, and finding someone who actually ran a 55 in there. one-touch-kill him 2 or 3 times and they yell at you and ragequit. always fun lol!

You have to keep in mind that there are more than one type of invic-monk. A 55 would be fodder to Vamp touch, but Spirit Bonders would not be soo vunerable. Same with the new monk build using SoA. Vamp Touch may not recharge fast enough to take the monk out.
Samuel Dravis
Spirit bonders are not likely to work well anymore, particularly against the Searing+Glowing combo of constant damage and burning. SoA doesn't apply to vamp damage. Any of these will die to Diversion though. You could also do Gaze of Contempt (right after he reapplies his prot enchant) + Mind Burn or something.

true, but you can work around that. just use the same principle of the touch rangers: spam vamp touch and bite while using your elite for energy management, but instead of OoB, use prodigy. max out energy storage and blood. slap on prodigy and spam away. they will run out of health long before you run out of energy. plus, vamp will bypass/not activate most of the standard invinci-skills: obsidian flesh and most of the earth line, spellbreaker, spirit bond, prot spirit, SoA, and most anything else im forgetting.

It's not quite as easy as you guys are suggesting; if the 55 HP guy is any good, the battle should last over a minute, and quite possibly over two minutes.
If he plays halfway well, he won't die until his energy supply has run all the way down.

55 hp - 65 hp life steal from vamp = dead 55 monk!

55 hp - 65 hp life steal from vamp = dead 55 monk! Details, details. I was assuming a more elementalist-oriented build.

Pebbles
Counters that exsist in the elementalist skill line mainly sit in the fire like.
Burning them is quite effective... I will negate most of there health regeneration. They might use healing breeze in whitch case you would need to fire off a simple AoE spell whitch hits lots of times in sucession. Firestorm/Breath of fire ect
although they don't loose alot of health from an attack if you hit them enough sucessive times with there health regeneration already dealt with.
Other than that necro or mesmer skills are more effective counters.
