MiteeThoR's Ultimate UW Solo - getting things as efficient as possible...

i see an energy prob there...i think it's time for 2 man runs....good aswell...
The Fenixxor
Energy problem? your gaining +2 every time your getting hit and +5 with bonettis, unless ur game is bugged and ur breeze costs 30 energy to cost, and even then, i think your mistaken.
Ara Dax
I have trialed a build with grifs and trolls., you do not even need bonettis. I have ditched it and moved all my att points back from tactics to smiting.
My energy does not fall below about 15-20, even when spamming skills with zealots.
With the 3 running enchants, you still have 1 pip of energy, plus the energy gain from attacks, as Fenixxor has pointed out., Healing breeze and mending gives, wot, 12 hp regen (8+4).
I think it's easier without Pro Bond.

I agree, the neccesity to recast protective spirit is more of an advantage that a hinderance due to zealots fire. bonetti's can probably easily be replaced by channeling (mesmer) and then maybe replace essence bond with divine boon... but tbh the build i mentioned works very well.
Witchblade
Bah ..didnt run lotsa tests..Bonnetti s still a good blocking skill.. 
i aint sure about removing it

I am currently running with RoF instead of Bonettis, every hit gives X amount of health back to you, with a 3/4 casting time and 2 Sec recharge. Happy days.
Making it another spam skill with P/Spirit and H/Breeze.
Seems to work for me.

Devine boon is probably a better option as it will increase the HP you receive when u cast spells aswell, plus it has a lower CD.

That is true, but with a 9 in divine aura, you get +29 hp for each skill you cast anyway. And with D/Boons -1 Regen, I decided not to use it.
And on a 55HP build, 29 is quite a lot.

yeah, i suppose there will be different variations. Swings and roundabouts.

Well, they did quite effectively screw over the spirit spam build (thank god for that)

Yea they get it right sometimes but cmon, it was obvious people would use prot spirit instead.

Droknar Collector wand 20%smite reload replaced with a +20% ench weapon

Use the +5 energy sword from maguuma stad and put a +20% enchant upgrade on it.

that was the idea

I can confirm that Protective Spirit is quite an effective replacement. It's not nearly as safe as the Prot bon build and your bars move around quite a bit but you can take pretty large mobs with a degree of safety. I just tested and could do 7 darkness at once and 5 ataxes at once and a mixed ataxe/darkness group.
It's also nice you can get a lot more energy because you don't have to pay the bond costs for each hit. But you are very busy casting now. Pretty much just cast as soon as anything is available so you don't let anything run out, because losing your spirit is fatal.

Bloodyblackthorn
Yes, but wouldnt a Mo/N version of this work?? Blood Ritual could give back the lost energy of prot bond.......
Therm
Fenixxor where exactly is that +5 en sword? Cant find it neither inside nor outside of maguma.
The Fenixxor
Anyone tried Mo/N build with aura of the lich?
miteethor
I've been toying with the idea. The only thing that bothers me is that I can't use AotL and Spiteful Spirit at the same time, and I would want them both to be a good necro. Also Bonettis does wonders for dodging interrupts and it's hard to give it up especialy for a bunch of 2-second cast time spells that will most likely never get cast because of interrupts.
Bloodyblackthorn
Use protective spirit??

It may also be from a collector at Maguuma but you can get one in Henge of Denravi for 2k plus 4 Steel and 20 Iron.
The Fenixxor
Oh sorry i didnt notice your post, its on the weaponsmith in maguuma.
Edit: Omg whats my advice doing today

Just a wild thought.... has anyone tryed Mark of Protection along with Protective Spirit?
I know its an elite, but SoJ could be changed by something else....

Its pointless using a healing spell that has a duration significantly shorter than its cooldown, your gunna end up diying before you can recast.
If by some miracle u can survive the gap without diying its likely you dont need it.

Too bad prot bond can't get to 1 energy anymore. gg.
yearninglemon
I spent allot of money on this build, and they nerfed it 2 days after 
got 2 ectos 
..... But now p-bond is at 3 
... But still figured out a way to solo it

Sorry Fennixor i didn't make myself clear... you use mending at +4 and watchful spirit. Then prot spirit...and mark of prot when the going gets tough. You can be right,of course but can't it work?

Silly, neither BR nor BiP can be self-cast. They are both Target Other Ally

Mending +4 and watchful spirit (+2) is only going to give you +3 regen (due to bleed), thats not enough (when your taking 5 damage per hit) to keep yourself alive. You would end up using mark of protection right at the start and then ur a bit buggered later on. the key to the build is healing breeze, mending +4 and breeze should be enough to keep yourself alive, if you find yourself steadily losing life you may want to put a few skill points in devine favour so that when you cast protective spirit (which has a low cooldown) your healing yourself fully. Again i say a spell like mark of protect has a cooldown that is too high and therefore wont work effectively, your better off using something else.

just dropped two skills from my Mo/W 55hp build and replaced them, hint is....two friendly spirits :P Works perfectly, cant take on giant mobs like i used to, but its like being back with the original 105 build, have to take things a little slowly and only take 3-4 aataxes at a time
good to see its not been completely nerfed, already gotten 2 ectos on this run

I'd be interested to see if a elementalist monk can solo UW. Prot spirit, mending essence and balth spirit wud be a good place to start, then with something like firestorm or meteor shower... anyway i dont have an elementalist so if anyone's tried it i'd like to hear about it.
Therm
It wont work becouse of huuge racharde time of meteor shower and a fire storm is very similar to balths aura but the aura got shorter recharge time i think
The Fenixxor
Ah well nevermind then.
Therm
But im wondering if not trying to use this +3 prot bond... Essence bond gives me +1 each time im taking dmg and the balthazars spirit gives me some enegy too but i dunno the amount of it. So i only have to find another energy regen spell to become invinci again... Anyone know how much energy flows from balths spirit?
SwitcH
Ok...Getting to Mineral Springs will be a problem for me unless some1 will run me for free

Why do you need to goto mineral springs? If its for SOJ (shield of judgement) i find SOJ a bit useless tbh, balth aura is much more useful
Tal Lightbringer
Fenixxor: I'm just curious what you are using for damage skills. Or only B.Aura. Thanks.
