Most uncommon primary/secondary combos?

I had a Mo/R. She was a healer/beastmaster. God I love Disrupting Lunge.

But I deleted her for space for other chars, 'cause I already had another Monk primary

My current Mo is a Mo/N smiter or protector depending on what I feel like. But I use Mo/W or Mo/Me for farming.

My newest idea... is my "wand you to death" elementalist. XD I've killed elementalists and mesmers in roughly 10 seconds (in random arenas) just using my wand. XD It must have been depressing for them to have been pwnd by a wand. XD Of course, its much deeper than simply wand... but I wanted to check out my dps. XD

I'll let you speculate on how I manage it.

Anywho, the clases I tend not to see often, are:

W/Me (though I actually have one)
Mo/R (though I've actually made one)
Me/R
E/W (I've seen one before aside the one that I made)
E/N
N/E
R/N

Curently I tend to carry the following skills:

Life Siphon
Shadow Strike
Vampiric Gaze
Lightning Strike
Lightning Orb
Exploit Corpse
Well of suffering / Animate BH
Soc / Rez / Putrid Explosion depending on if im carrying well or not, these last two slots i tend to fiddle with depending on the mission / quest.

Monk/Necro is a very common healer type. I've made one myself recently and she's doing great.

As for Me/W, I've come across an Illusionary Weaponry build during PvP and she was pretty scary! But only until IW runs out. And while they're doing IW, they do a lot of damage, but because of (probably) Frenzy they take a lot more damage too. It was funny though, she'd run off as soon as IW ended because there was nothing else she could do.

Also working on a W/Me and she's gonna kick ass when she's got all the skills I need for my build. Basically this sucker will shut down monks pretty damn fast :P

The only way to be original is figuring out something yourself, not asking for help in a forum.


thanks

Usually there are reasons why a certain profession match is rare / underused, generally because skills or stats or roles dont mix well, unless oyu have something a bit sneaky or specific in mind.

I am using a W/Ne i havent seen many of them around although there are probably hundreds...I gotta say using things like life syphon and disease, and then running in and using flurry and a few others makes for exellent "clobberin time"

I use a Mo/R for the only reason that i need a bodyguard lol.
My lvl 20 bear can tank a few things, unfortunetely cannot stand up to the mursatt as i would much like it to.

ranger makes a fairly good class for PvE if you use the wilderness survival skills. I currently have a E/R and used to use it for the pet skills but i found i didn't have the room for them anymore. So now i focus on much firey damage with wilderness upkeep spells like troll unguent and melandru's resilience. Storm chaser and dodge are also incredibly helpful when out alone or with henchies.

If you use fragility, mark of rodgort, and conjure element, it's not uncommon.

I haven't. Happen to have a link? :P

Half of my characters are Me/N. I use Soul Barbs and hexes. I flipped a join to determine whether Mesmer or Necromancer would be the primary condition. Fast casting hasnn't impressed me. Should've gone Necro for Soul Reaping and the fact that they just look cooler.

I don't see too many N/R. like myself, but maybe I'm wrong. But any case I like the combo because you can have the pet and summon Bone Horrors. And also using Well of Blood while standing back and hitting wiht arrows.

Other Combos I don'e see much are:
W/Me
Me/N
Me/R
Mo/Me
R/W

Oh and the class I've never ever ever ever seen is Warrior-Monk, I have never seen these illustious creatures...where are they, maybe I can charm one and have it as a pet.

Me/W are very common simply because that is the mainstay for those Illusionary Weaponry builds.
My friends are all W/E...
And I, too, have seen very little if no Mo/R and Ele/R
Another rare one is N/R.
R/Me is very common because the hp degen skills combined with conditions is killer. Also, a fragility based build as a mesmer is simple and devastating.

ok now ur telling me that mo/w is good......wouldnt w/mo be better......i mean what part of a warrior is a monk primary going too use.....

Mainly Tactics for defensive stances and protection, along with the ability to wear shields. Probably the most often referenced stance I've heard/read about being used in a Mo/Wa setup is Bonetti's Defense.

I'm a Me/N, although I really don't use anything in my secondary. Every mesmer who I have been on a party with has been a secondary necro, although I've also seen quite a few warrior secondaries or primaries (illusionary weaponry I'm sure).

out of curiosity has anyone seen a Nec/Mes before because thats what i am not doing bad with it but i dont really see anyone else around with them

I have a Necro/Mes too ^^ having said that I was with one when I went through pre-searing. So they're around

What about R/W that use Swords and not Bows, I dont see many of them. Does anyone know if they'd be any good, because I want to create another ranger and I think rangers using swords looks sweet.

I've spent half an hour and can't find it. It was here in gwguru.com, try and search a bit for it. Srry...
