After toying with some crazy sin builds (I enjoyed my Water Sin) I decided to play A/R.
I got a basic "Run as One" for a mandatory speed buff and, well, since I put 12 points in Beast Mastery, I decided to get a pet with Disrupting Lounge and... Heal as One.
I will not dabble if Heal as One is overpowered or not, but it surely make my old Sin heals look weak. I surely won't be using Shadow Refuge or Heart of Shadow anymore.
Fun Fact: With my crazy build I got my first glad points in TA. 25 consecutive wins!
Heal as One is craaaazy

So.... your point?
Heal as One is the only proper heal for a Ranger and it's not overpowered.

Rangers don't need to be any harder to kill than they already are.

The skills in Beastmastery come with an extra helping of awesomesauce.
Please don't tell anyone. ^_^

Heal as One is balanced by it's recharge time and pre-requisite of either yourself or your pet having <75% health, not to mention the fact that it's an Elite.

Well, as for Heal as one being over powered, I disagree. 25% health is a small window which to activate it in a lot of cases, especially when you're being knocked down or spiked. It's balenced.
But when it comes to an effective Assasin, I can see something like this in RA.
12 pts- BM
12 +1 pts- Dagger Mastery
3 +2 pts- Shadow Arts
[skill]heal as one[/skill][skill]charm animal[/skill] [skill]Otyugh's Cry[/skill] [skill]shroud of distress[/skill][skill]golden fox strike[/skill][skill]fox fangs[/skill][skill]nine tail strike[/skill][skill]resurrection signet[/skill]
~Edit, Otyugh's Cry is innacurate. It prevents your pet from being blocked with a +24 Armor Bonus.

But if I *really* wanted a perfect build to maximize my win ratio I won't be playing Sins to start.
Before the shitstorm starts I am not saying Sins are bad, or can't win a lot, I just saying I think there are better classes to farm glad points.
To whoever asked about the build...
I didn't post my build because people would jump and say "RA builds should be posted on the PvP forum" or something similar, but this just show you really can't win some battles.
The build, however, isn't my point... I am just saying Heal as One is a impressive heal (elite or not), and Beast Mastery has some interesting skills to boot.
It's important to note if a Sin try to make a different build, it is instantly labeled as a bad build, but if he goes with the classic "shadowstep + LOD" he is a 1234 noob wiki-sin.
Again, can't win.

I've always felt that HaO is one of the most worthless elites in Guild Wars outside of Hero Battles.
After reading this thread I still feel the same way. However, I am glad to hear you are happy with your success. All I can say is don't change it if its working.

Shock on a Monk? Get serious, use Crip Shot like I do, the can't kill ya if they can't catch ya.
If you got 25 win with that build I'm going to guess you had team mates that were upset with having to drag you through them. Thre are a massive aray of better heals to go with a Sin than that.
I hope your 8th skill was a rez.
Yes your being flamed for being out of the norm, but come on. How many other win streaks did you/do you get with it? What were your team mates proffesions and builds on that run?

You even have a classical ad hominem, in which you value your maturity pointing the apparent infantility of other players. Kids play RA/AB, I am not a kid because I don't play it.
The irony of being "mature" by playing a game amaze me.

Best threads ever. PVP people crying about who has more skill in Guild Wars of all games. Love it.
