On the rare occasion I do pve and can't run an AP evas ruby djinn spamer.
I run HA bars on myself and on heroes... This always works very well and I was wondering if anyone does the same?

In before "blank skill bars win PvE" / "PvP > PvE" answers popup.

Just kidding, but yes it is doable, most cookie cutter PvP builds should work fine anywhere... even though it won't be optimal without PvE skills etc.

The reverse is true too... you could go PvP with a PvE bar (even with unusable PvE skills) and win matches in PvP. Even PvP can be won with terrible bars, blank bars, you just need to be 'carried' by a decent team.

Bottom line, everything is doable, it's just not as optimal as it could.

Yes, people run HA bars in PvE. There's an example.

Anet did use adh builds for pve mobs in the past.
For some builds 1+3 bars just isn't enough though.

Not even that, you can just pick up 5 random guys that leave after zaishen and farm uw for epic fame with 7 npcs.

Works against random, rtl & fail guilds.
(target calling npc pressure ftw)

Might take a while though and is not worth it during main eu/am times.

i think a lot of pve bars are boring. sure theyre effective but boring. i have more fun running primal rage axe than i do dslash/sy! in pve, iunno.

that's the good thing about general pve you can run anything you want and still own face, including pvp bars

It works, and half the HA builds are better than what pugs bring...

meh, if ur any decent at pvp, u should know how to play intelligently and this can make many builds effective. and if ur in NM, then any mildly effective build will own.

Not going to keep up with that anymore

HA builds have a slight resemblance of "strategy", even though they are usually pretty lame. In PvE, strategy is a waste of time. You want to blow stuff up.
