Best skill use you've ever seen?
~ Dan ~
I was playing AB as a monk with my friend, and we were in the center of that 3 shrine chain on ancestral lands. A mob of 15 luxons / minions were now swarming the shrine, and so i drew a dodgy arrow attempting to point down the stairs and back round under the bridge towards the center fort. Acknowldeging this my friend then made a run for it, i protted him as he ran through. The mob all then turned to me and i spammed my skills like hell in order to survive. As my friend passed through my aggro zone underneath... BAM i hit return
Just thought that was pretty cheeky

I like to use hex breaker when I see SP sins
They tele then start their chain but they can't hit me 'cause I'm not hexed, lol.
Not very clever or anything but it works hehe.

I love whirling defense, espescially in AB, with that skill you can solo cap almost every point

i was in ab once as a You're all alone warrior and targeted a lone monk. When in full charge and was owned by him because of some assissin build he was usiing....really took me off guard. fun days

For long cast spells like meteor shower, you still have a cast time(equal or less than 0.25 sec), it is not as instant as you think.

i think the best skill ever is signet of illusions with arcane theivery you can cap and use any spell you want

I'd say my best skill usage (which was really more luck) was interrupting a ranger's dshot at 0:06 remaining in old halls, allowing us to cap and win. I was shocked that I actually managed it. |
Please don't go there.
I'm not trolling...those who are criticising my feel-good moment in AB (I've spent maybe an hour in AB total since owning factions...) are trolling to make themselves feel better.

Actually, Glyph Sac makes your next spell 1/4 second cast, so it doesn't surprise me that this could happen. Not sure if thats a bug or intended.

here's one bit of advice for wammos and other aggro holders: if you are holding aggro and a meteor storm or another aoe is going off right next to you, pull the aggro into it

d-shotted rof a few times, though this isn't always hard if you have some good timing and of course some luck.

I was a W/D, tanked a necro, ranger, dervish, and assassin at once, 4v1. I killed all four, survived. No, they didn't necessarily suck, more like, my build completely destroyed them.
I use shadow stepping to dodge things. For example, when you're casting meteor, I run back, or keep running, depending on the situation, wait until it flashes gold, then I shadow step and avoid the projectile.
I played an Echo Mending monk, and survived for six wins in the Random Arenas. I normally suck at monk, but I echoed Blessed Signet rather than Mending, and kept Mending maintained. It worked for a while.

Monks are supposed to kite and heal and stuff... not facestab you into oblivion >.<
Mo/A's are annoyingly effective in RA. Frankly, for that reason, I wouldn't call what that monksin did to you a display of 1337 skillz... If it's in RA, it's probably gimmicky niche build crap. Or Wiki. I dunno which is worse.
Another bit of "woot" for me was when I first tried playing a shadow prison + black spider strike + twisting fangs + sig of toxic shock + sig of deadly corruption sin... was shockingly effective at tearing a ranger into tiny pieces. Probably a gimmick build itself, but it felt pretty awesome dropping the ranger like that, it went so smoothly.

[skill]Contemplation of Purity[/skill], i absoluly love this skill, never see anyone use it recently except myself in AB, i use it with a Dboon+Smiters boon monk.. crazy heals, nice support.. and when those annoying mesmers and sins start throwing hexes and conditions at me i just CoP it all off to their great dissappointment.
SuperDave
In AB I'd have to go with my Blinding Flash + Gale ele. It's fun to catch a wiki ninja on his way to pwn you with Blinding Flash, and when said sin tries to retreat gets dropped on his ass. And then the fun begins.
