Hello everyone,

Recently I've completed Nightfall and EotN on a lot of my characters in order to get them heroes, and I've grinded out a couple titles on my sin and warrior. But constant title grinding seems to be getting boring for me. I manage to do quite a bit DoAsc, and FoWsc, but even those don't give me enough breaks. I think its time for me to mix up my play style, and try something new. I've played monk, mesmer, warrior, and assassin alot. Any input on a different profession with some fun builds that could be interesting for me to play would be great! I understand its not alot of info to go off of when asking for help, but just any build that is fun and different, no matter the profession would be great!

Thanks in advance,
Beamer

If you want a fun profession, i'd recommend necromancer. Not only are they extremely versatile, i find they're so fun to play. Also if you get bored of using primary necro builds, they become even more powerful when you dip in to secondarys. IE: n/me can use arcane echo, to echo powerful skills like SS, or FoC. It can also take some useful energy management skills from inspiration, like auspicious incantation. Although SR is already amazing energy management.

My SS build is usually:

SS
Arcane echo
Auspicious Incantation
''You Move Like A Dwarf!''
Ebon Vanguard Assassin Support
Necrosis
Desecrate Enchantments
Defile Enchantments/Signet of Lost Souls/Mark of Pain/Barbs

MM's are usually quite fun to play, even if you do have dis/sab heroes, you can still play MM effectively and maintain 8-10 minions throughput whatever your doing (provided you aren't in an area with non-fleshy foes).

Icy veins is a widely used elite, it's commonly coupled with Putrid Bile for alot of heavy AoE damage. It has a 5 sec recharge and is useful when put on multiple adjacent targets.

If you need some more builds just pm, i have like 100 saved!

I second to necromancer.
To me they're one of the most versatile profession due to e-management from SR.
You can play SS competitively, have fun as MM or run around with 1hp BiPing/Orders everyone.
They can also run SF (searing flames) nuker in NM pretty efficiently since things will blow up pretty fast having no energy problems (minions support helps sometimes).
And if you like to get close and personal there's some blood magic builds that will kill everything around you (even you).
Don't like to do damage, go rit and push up the red bars.

Use Dervish, after running Assassin and Warrior, they're enjoyable to play.

PUG'ing is quite fun. You'll find some really crazy, fun, or odd people.

RE: PUG'ing. If you go into pugging with the proper attitude it can be lots of fun. Don't PUG if you must finish things as fast as possible and/or if there's a particular way that you insist something be done. And be prepared to stop for chests.
Some people play GW like it's a job to "get 'er done", which seems like waste to me.
