Critique my "hero way"

Sooo I'm lovin the new update as much as anybody else is. I've been running several different kinds of hero builds in VQ's, Missions, and a tad bit of some elite areas (mainly DoA NM). I've come across a pretty solid build that is viable is almost every area, and was wondering if anybody with more success with similar builds could share some wisdom on me.

I'm not sure how to upload skillbars and all that on here but I can name heroes skills:

Me: DwG Rit - PvXwiki build with Radiation Field/EVAS

E/Mo Bonder

Sabway
- 1 N/Rt SoLS/Xinraes Weap. Healer
- 1 SS/Curse Nec
- 1 Jagged Bones / Dwaynas Sorrow Bomber

1 Panic Dom Mes

1 Ineptitude Illusion Mes

1 SoS Rit

SoS Rit has Splinter Weapon for Minions, SS Curse Necro has Weaken Armor, Enfeebling Blood, as well as Splinter Weapon and Mark of Pain.

I mean, they are the typical builds from PvXwiki with a few minor adjustments.

Thanks in advance - -

Before I will review your teambuild please put all the builds in a teambuild in this application:
http://www.guildwarsguru.com/forum/p...t10391290.html

Simply download and install. Then go to New and Teambuild. Then add all your builds there and hit Make Screenshot or download this program, hit F2 and upload it here:

B4 you do this: So far it seems decent. However I don't think it is as powerful as Hero Spiritway. Try SY + HSpway + Panic + RoJ + ER

SS is not good with shutdown mesmers. It does not trigger on interrupted attacks/skills. Tested and proven.

SS stil deals more dmg than most other skill, even with Panic

Swap the Curses Necro for something else. Possibly a Smiter or a Discord Necro.

Similar to what I use. For the necro you're better of maybe speccing into blood (as well as curses) and do weaken armour+oppressive gaze. Pain of dis/corrupt enchantment/reapers mark are better elites for synergy. The main purpose of a curses necro is support, having another splinter weapon is a bit of overkill, you could go n/mo and use empathic removal if hexes are a problem.

OR Switch it for a plain aire nuker with invoke and chain lightning. Straight up dps is pretty invaluable, especially when it has AP.

Swap the Curses Necro for something else. Possibly a Smiter or a Discord Necro. This, never run SS with shutdown. I personally hate discord. A smiter or communing rit would add a nice amount of damage to your team. Something else I've started running recently is a command paragon. Never Surrender, Fall back, Go for the eyes are good with minions. And anthems (namely envy and disruption) synergize well with spirits. Main thing is to experiment and see what you like.
