This is for AB but can be used also in RA.
I had a lot of success with this build especialy against casters, even SP sins and other mele. And u can also solo cap ele shrine with no problems and the other shrine except the war which is harder but it can be done.
Scythe Mastery: 12+1+1
Mysticism: 10+2
Earth: 8
Full radiant setup and Dwaynas Grace
1.Victorios Sweep
2.Mystic Sweep
3.Crippling Sweep
4.Watchfull Intervention
5.Heart of Fury
6.Mystic Regen
7.Vow of Silence
8.Dash
Usage: Cast watchfull out of combat and let energy regen. Then cast the other enchants with vow of silence being the last, dash to target, cripple, hit etc. If VoS runs out recast it. After the second VoS runs out u should be at full energy, recast all enchants in the same order.
The only class I have problems with is ranger, but only if they are good. Oh, and touchers and wars who focus on tanking etc. but they can't hurt me so I just cripple them and switch targets.
Is there something that I could improve, change a skill, equip?
Pls don't tell me that I get owned by chilblains or some other aoe skill that is not even used by 95% of palyers.
What do u think about my build

Though u can death charge first and after that use VoS but I'm not sure if it's effective.

You do it all the time as a VoS forge runner.

I don't see very many people use vos in ab at all. The popular one is to be a balth warrior. but really the build looks good and yoiu don't really need to use vos you could up your mysticsm and use an avatar, I am very partial to these, such as dwayna because your spamming of attacks. Though you do lose a little regen with mystic.

In AB you normally take alot more damage from attacks than from spells, so the vos could be working against you and not letting monks heal you. I would use reapers, maybe EDA.

not sure about that..
I can see a lot of necros, some mesmers, a few air/water eles, chanelling rits, deadly arts sins and the ele shrine, necro shrine, mesmer shrine. VoS=imunity to hexes, dmg spells, enchant removal, blinding flash etc. Also on that map with the fort it's so much easyer to blow the gates and enter the fort.
Dwayna and the other avatars are good but they have to much cooldown. I guess EDA is good. If I want to counter mele/rangers then use EDA, if I want to counter casters I use VoS.
And from what I know, monks are pretty rare in AB. If I have one in my team and we are against more physicals then I won't use vos, if there are more casters I use it and the monk can focus on others.

Nice build Imo, I know how annoying it is to Solo cap the ele shrine without eating all that lightning hammers and orbs, Good Build Overall

I see them, but i see alot more touchers, MMs, standard warriors, gladiator's defense warriors, dervs, rangers, thumpers, beast masters, sins(this does shut down "black" combo sins), AoE eles, and even the occasional trapper.
Sir Pandra Pierva
hmm Usually in ab I run up against sf eles, touchers, silly sins, and wammos

But still....I don't think replacing vow with reapers would help that much in killing them. I have enough dps with just 2 attack skills and 33% IAS. Deepwound is good but the skill is elite...
About EDA let's say it is better than vos, but does that mean every AB build should have EDA? And how good EDA really is? Blind does not affect some of those mentioned in your list(touchers, trapers, fire eles, MMs).
Unless you bring wild blow EDA is not that effective vs wars and rangers who have a block stance on them before u get the first hit. And no more ele shrine caping. But it counters very well dervs, sins and paragons.
I also have a question. Can a fire ele cast aoe spells that require a target(meteor) on a derv with vos?

EDA completely ownz. It is by far my most favourite elite to run in AB. Most rangers there are too stupid to put up a stance before you hit your 3/4 sec attack skill. I use [skill]Unseen Fury[/skill] ~ no rangers can block, no monks can block.. etc. Also, by blinding an ele, put up [skill]Armor Of Sanctity[/skill] and you have damage reduction, thus making blinding damage dealing casters useful.

NEVER underestimate a deep wound. reapers is a guaranteed ~135 damage on foes below 50%. that with a follow up of mystic sweep should finish off any target.

Doesn't deep wound also cut healing down by a bit?
Utaku
by 20 percent.

I was wondering how much it was. Reapers is really powerful in RA.
