PvE Mob Eating build. Victory is Mine is in full force if you can nail a mob around your Warrior with both Shadow of Fear and Enfeebling Blood as well as nail your Mark of Pain Target with the Dismember/Axe Rake conditions... ^_^ The Mark of Pain Target should be the last one standing after the whole mob goes splat which will happen if you and your whole team is using bows/weapons on your Mark of Pain Target [u did target call right? ^_^]. In a one on one conflict, this build would be the equivalent of using a sledgehammer to kill a roach, effective, but overdoing it. Hard Heavy hitters [like those damn Ettin Mobs] will be effectively neutered with the curses skills in this build...

for pvp [cast time and sheer speed considered]
same attrib points...

6) Enfeeble [Curses] (5,1,5) Spell: Target suffers from weakness for 15 seconds.
7) Rend Enchantments [Curses] (10,3,30) Spell: Target foe loses 7 enchantments. For each Monk enchantment removed, you take 40 damage.
8) Plague Touch [none] (5,1,0) Skill: Transfer a negative condition from yourself to target touched foe.
With Rend being the only easy to counter and slooowww skill in this list, this warrior is all about piling on conditions to fuel VICTORY which again keeps you alive and gives you more energy to, pile on more conditions [see the domino effect here? ^_^] Yes I know conditions can be removed, but damage can be healed so what?
This build supposed to REALLY disrupt a target making them near useless for fighting [enfeeble] and spell casting [disrupting chop] with a dual snare [Axe Rake + Sprint] to ensure that you're on your target's ass like white on rice... This PvP build supposed to shut out a key player on the enemy team... [be it a disruption controller like a mesmer or a monk healer...] If you're dealing with an angry mob of melee users, then Enfeeble should at least make one of them less effective... Cast times are fast too and cheap to boot!These are the retirement builds of the Blood Magic Warriors out there who discover later in game that dot and hot skills just don't cut it, like I discovered very recently... Those skills start dying near lvl TEN for God's sake...
