Both of those sound really interesting. Can anyone go over them briefly? I'm sorry for my constant questions... Thank you. A bonder is someone who maintains Life Bond on everyone and usually uses Blessed Signet/Balthazar's Spirit to keep up energy. However with no DF, you'd have to rely on Soul Reaping and OoB, probably. For the first build, not so sure, but probably something like this. Tainted Flesh {E} Necrotic Traversal/Putrid Explosion/Consume Corpse (bloodstained boots) Reversal of Fortune Guardian Mend Ailment Shielding Hands? Protective Spirit? Smite Hex/Convert And probably tons of SR since the elite is taken up with Tainted Flesh.

I never realized SR helps energy regen in PVP, I thought it was so minimal that it was just disreguarded. So for this build I'm probably looking at Death magic, SR, and Protection Prayers?

So for this build I'm probably looking at Death magic, SR, and Protection Prayers? I had a N/Mo condition remover. 1 version ran Prot and Healing with Plague Signet, the other was Curses with Plague Signet. 12 Healing Prayers 11 Protection Prayers 3+1+1 Curses Reversal of Fortune Guardian Orison of Healing (the weakest spell in this build) Healing Breeze Plague Signet Draw Conditions Vigorous Spirit or something, I forget now Res Sig The curses version you just run your favorite curse build but use Plague Signet as your elite and Draw Conditions from the monk side. In this version you run some Blood skills for utility. Mark of Pain Suffering Vampiric Gaze Plague Signet Draw Conditions Strip Enchantment Rend Enchantments Res Sig 12+1+3 Curses 12+1 Blood rest +1 in Soul Reaping

Keep in mind that the kind of build you use is only a small part of the equation - the rest is up to your personal skills and knowing how to use that build. Some of my favorite builds are absolutely useless unless you know how to use them. On the other hand, some people have some very effective builds that would probably be useless in my hands - at least in the beginning - without knowing how to play them.
If you just want to run a copy-cat build without much PvP experience you'll likely be pretty disappointed. If you want to understand your style of play or the rationale behind certain builds the best thing I can suggest is to just play lots of PvP. - why not? it's free. Put simply ... owning a Ferarri doesn't make you a professional driver. If you don't even have a learner's permit you can't expect to win races.

I can handle using elementalists and mesmers in PVP but I have never used a monk in my life so I have no idea what I'm doing.  Only way to learn is through experience, thats what im going to do. |
