What gives?

It seems to me that heroes in general are sucking more lately. I just went out to try and Vanquish in Deldrimor Bowl and my party couldn't kill one monk. I couldn't make it past the first mob--not because they killed us, but because we couldn't kill them. I called the target (a Shiverpeak Protector) over and over and saw absolutely no damage coming in on my target over the span of about five minutes.

Now I realize that if I'm running Sab's build (or any MM build in general), the first couple mobs should be the hardest, since you gotta get those minions rolling. But I've never seen anything like this in all my hours in GW. Has anyone else been having similar experiences lately? Did Hero AI get downgraded to the level of single-cell organisms while I wasn't looking?

I had a similar issue whenI first setup my heroes (barely after NF was launched) however i've not had any issues in that area after updating my heroes builds. Maybe try more caster hate? I know casters in hard mode are insanely powerful, well melee are too, but as a Monk you can help mitigate that.

The builds aren't the problem. I've run this build with trememdous success in nearly all PvE areas. It's not the build, it's the execution. Seems like they're not acting like they used to. I've never seen them not be able to take down a single monk before.

It would help if you tell us what the builds you're using are.

Even though I don't know what Sab's build is, I recommend either getting a domination hech if you're worried about monks or take a look at my build I just posted, it works wonders against casters & mobs.
