Are There So Few Enchantments Used by Prophecies Monsters?

Are there very little enchantments used by monster in Prophecies? I almost never see my mesmer hero use shatter enchantment. Would you say that hexes are a lot more common among Prophecies monsters compared to enchantments? Thanks in advance.

heh wait till ure in shiverpeaks those wretched stone summit dolyaks!

Yes, not many enchants are used.

The only enchantment I ever encountered in Proph that I remember is [Mark of Protection] on those damnable Dolyak Masters. Annoying.

Ye, I'm vanquishing/was doing HM Missions in the Shiverpeaks for the last time, I was kinda afraid of these Dolyak Masters, because I remember them from my GW past (Proph only, Sorrows Furnace etc...good times), but they arent a big deal now imo, much better Ench removements nowadays, just equip a SS with Rip or something and micro manage it

they all should have mending.. though this would result = noone beat game.

Wouldn't [Mark of Protection] + [Scourge Healing] = win?

Most Elems will use an Attunement and/or Aura of Restoration. Several Necros will use Orders or Death Nova. Lots of Monks use Retribution, Holy Wrath, Healing Breeze, and even Mending, plus the Centaurs like to use Life Bond. Ranger and Warrior have no enchantments, so they obviously won't be using them. Mesmer has a few, but not many of them are used.

Wouldn't it be awesome if that set up some kind of infinite feedback loop which killed the enemy instantly? It should work decent if you really want to put a smite monk in your group just to counter a single enemy though.

EDIT: nevermind, it wouldn't work at all because scourge healing only has an effect when direct heals are used, not heals through enchantments.

The thing is, out of all of those skills the only one that really does anything at all is [life bond] and you can just kill the caster in that case. Everything else you would be better served just using a damage skill

Which would you say is used more by Prophecies monsters? Enchantments or hexes?

Methinks you need to play more GW and play less forums

Me don't care what you think. Me asked a question and me just want the answer. Though me would agree with you on your statement. Me is just OCD and wants to know the best mathematical solution for playing this game.

Which is used more, hexes or enchantments? That depends on where you are at. Desert has a lot of Windriders that love to hex. It also has Centuars that love to Life Bond. Those 2 monster types are not found near each other very often. So adjust what you give Gwen based on where you are playing.

Me is too nooby to have it yet.

Well, I was wondering about the entire Tyrian continent, on average, that is.

It works against Inner Fire. Dunno about Mark of Protection though.

No, you were not wondering about the 'average for the whole continent'. The best mathematical solution will be based on each area you play in. Adjust per area. The 'average' will vary based on personal opinion. Someone who has recently spent time in the Windrider parts of the desert will say hexes are more prominent. Someone who just experienced the dwarves and their Mark of Protection Dolyaks will say enchantments.

Same answer as that given in your conditions vs hexes thread. The different areas are too varied to give you an answer(or even an average). Just adjust the builds as you play.

The best solution period is to just play through the game, experience and hopefully learn first hand how things are and what you need to do to adjust and make things go smoother.

There is no real answer to your question. You can load up on enchant strippers in the Shivs and make life for you entire party easier while at the same time that's going to do absolutely nothing, but waste space when you go to the jungle and start running into Wind Riders who are going to load you up with hexes.

I hope you found what you're looking for because it isn't going to get any more definite than that.
