Hello Everyone!

I play games in bursts and Guild Wars has roled back around for an attempt. I think the last time I played was around March '10. I remember this game was always a-changin so I figured I'd post what I still have loaded on my Heroes in hopes that it may still be effective.

Goals/Needs:
Playing solo (Melee Assassin). POSSIBLY playing with my wife (Melee Dervish)
The ability to get me through to the end and enjoy the story along the way (I won't do any farming)
I'm not interested in standing around town in the fashion shows.
*NO* micromanagement of heroes/henchies.
Supplementing my three heroes with henchies is fine.
I don't mind dying a few times as long as it's not a habit.

What I currently have set up:
Olias - Necro / Monk
Jagged Bones
Animate Bone Minions
Death Nova
Masochism
Shield of Absorption
Protective Spirit
Aegis
Signet of Souls

Xanadra - Rit / Monk
Signet of Spirits
Bloodsong
Splinter Weapon
Spirit Siphon
Smite Condition
Smite Hex
Strengh of Honor
Flesh of My Flesh

Vekk - Elem / Necro
Ether Renewal
Aura of Restoration
Order of Pain
Dark Fury
Barbs
Mark of Pain
Enfeebling Blood
Awaken the Blood

Will this still work? I noticed I've got nothing for gear on my heroes and was getting ready to start gearing them if this still works. I'm not too far into the game and everything still seems to be working fine, but the areas I'm in are still pretty low-strength I think.

Thanks in advance for the yays and/or nays.

The builds look fine, but Id drop awaken the blood on vekk.
But why only three heroes?

But why only three heroes? It's funny you should mention the three hero thing. I just discovered in-game that there is no longer a three-hero limit. I guess that tells ya how long it's been since I played last. lol

and thanks for the blessing on the builds.

You should have a loook at gwpvx.com, and look for meta pve team builds, and you should find some physical-helping teams

Feel free to msg me in game if you have future questions about team builds

Thanks Olle. I appreciate the tips. Guild Wars always seems to be a "new" game every time I come back to it with tons of things to re-learn.

Before you do anything I would wait for the ele update. It may hit tomorrow and then Eles will find their way back into meta.
