Do you think it would be worth it to get one Me/N and a E/W, put as many conditions up as you can, put up fragility, and then use crystal wave?
It wouldn't have to be E/W i just thought that the W part could add about 3 conditions.
Basically go up with a sword use sever artery, gash, ham string while the Me/N put up Fragility and Virulence then use crystal wave.
I'm only asking because my current computer's access to Guild Wars isn't very good right now so I haven't been able to work out the efficiency or damage count for it.
The way I think you could put up 7 conditions on a person and by what i remember fragility does about 20 damage for every condition stripped
So when crystal wave is dealing something like 100damage I think you could do around 240 damage with one crystal wave plus the bit of degen before youcast CW and each of you could have more damage skills to make up the remains.
Does anybody think this would be worth it?
I think its a good concept but you shouldn't rely on it you should have more stuff to do damage.

The problem is that E/Me can't put up that many conditions so it would be completely dependant on other classes. You also got the issue with a monk removing the hex or conditions.

Well, you are half right. You have to put up Fragility first, lay down the conditions, then use Crystal Wave.

Well no you don't.....I don't see why you would
Read fragility it does damage when they recieve a new condition or are cured of a condition.

This is true you would have to depend on certain circumstances. But an ele warrior could put more conditions than an E/me and i dont see the point in being ele/mes here except for more damage after crystal.
This is all true so i wasn't planning to base the whole build on it so it could still do decent damage if CW doesn't do what its intended to do.

Not a bad idea, but you'd be getting rid of deep wound too.. wouldn't that negate the spike value of it?

Over all I think I did a sloppy job while thinking about this because I had no way to get to the skills and debate with myself...yes i do that but im not crazy
