One thing im starting to get annoyed at seeing is the overuse of generic builds used in GW. go to an outpost and all you see is LF "echo nuker" etc.
In an attempt to combat this, id like for people to post any "different" builds they have experiemted and whether or not they worked.
One of my favourite is a N/R curse using bow wielder.
Cuses - 14
soul reap - 6
marks - 9
wilderness - 9
Parasitic Bond
Spiteful Spirit
Mark of Pain
Dual Shot
Troll Ungent
Res Sig
Ignite arrows
Apply Poison
i found that using MoP/Ignite/Dual shot on crowds can deal a nice spread of dmg in PvE and then using SS afterwards justincreases your dmg output. also spamming parasitic bond on foes and using poison arrows on tougher enemies makes everything run smooth.

It's thinkin outside the of the box,which is always a good thing.Unfortunately,take it to any PvP arena and you'll be met with the usual 'omg l00k teh n00b necro uses a b0w' inanities..

heh yea i tried a wierd build once of a W/R usin a bow and stances to take dmg it wasnt to bad but i wouldnt recommend for full time sorta big bulky to use i guess you could say
isamu kurosawa
Currenly i only use it for PvE, but my guild will be testing a PvP build based of it sometime soon.
we'd rather try something new and loose than go AWAY.....
also, im looking for a 15%Vs hexed stormbow(or 2), so if anybody has one for sale then feel free to contact me.

Used a similar build, but with the AoE update, Ignite Arrows and Mark of Pain will make the mobs scatter. Kind of ruins the build, since then I've been looking for a new way to be N/R and actually use Ranger skills.

Ive never realy had a problem with the update, although recently ive peen trying it with a pet.
I'd still love go get my hands on a 15% Vs hexed stormbow tho, most people tend to class such a bonus as junk, so its proving difficult (only one ive seen was a shadow bow in Int ascalon, but they wanted 80k for it
)

At least, that's what I've been called in the past:
- Lightning Bolt
- Lightning Orb
- Blinding Flash
- Gale
- Ether Prodigy
- Backfire
- Diversion
- Res Sig
Played right, you can keep two opponents from being too useful (blinding attackers, backfiring casters). Ether Prodigy when your energy gets low and just keep tossing out those lightnings when you're not doing anything else.
Mesmers tend to eat me alive though.
