 * Ah yes, the Pointy Haired Boss is a known mob boss that should be avoided at all costs. The worst part of this boss is that it is not limited to a single profession, but is non-proficient in all.  Known affects of being around this creature include: *energy drain *life drain *inability to use skills Rezoning is the only known way to get away from the effects of this boss.

Feedback on Build:E/Mo Protection Prodigy
I appreciate the Dismiss Condition suggestion, it is indeed a great spell for the build and improved it significantly. If you could care to take another look, try it out, see what you think of it and perhaps offer your vote, it would be appreciated. Thank you. Ps: Nice to meet another Dilbert Fan, I read it daily. The newsletters and their (true) tales of "Induhviduals" also always crack me up. NightAngel 16:52, 13 March 2007 (CDT)


 * I might give that build a whirl. I don't PvP much (cept scrimmages within alliance), so not sure how well I can test it PvP.  Since the build is stated as PvE though, after a few trips to the skill trainers, my E will try this out (when I get a chance).  I don't currently have any fire +15/-1 weapon/offhands, but I have at least 5 most collectables, so I will have them soon (currently only have one +15/-1 inscription).  I might also try it without the +15/-1 eq to see how well that works also.  Queen Schmuck 17:03, 13 March 2007 (CDT)

Well, have fun, but it's too late now, Skuld has singlehandedly succeeded in destroying it. What a .... Sigh. Nm. He has way too many friends who follow him around and he doesn't take well to new ways of doing the same thing. NightAngel 17:16, 13 March 2007 (CDT)


 * Eh, just because a build is non-favored doesn't mean it can't work good for you. I've only voted on one build, and only because it was so terrible I had to try it out on some guildies for a good laugh (my good laugh, they didn't much like it being "tested" on them).

Contest

 * Creativity:7
 * Viability: 7
 * Presence: 7
 * Unusibility of Skill: 7
 * Total: 28/40

Reasoning:


 * Creativity: Pretty standard farming build other than elite. Picked a standard choice to farm as well.
 * Viability: The morale boosts and no anti-farming code is tempting, but you're not fighting very challenging enemies. Limited in purpose (i.e., this won't work to well in FoW/UW).
 * Presence: Used to build adreniline and thus rather important, but not the life's blood of the build. Disabling of either attacks or mass enchantment stripping would hurt you more than disabling AP.
 * Skill: Picked a good skill to work with, as it's neither sucktacular nor used all the time.

So, you finished at the high end of the average. Good job.--Nog64Talk 18:57, 6 April 2007 (CDT)


 * Thanks, was just curious. I knew the Solo from Zerris kicked the crap out of my build, but it does do what it is intended to do; collect runes with no major fancy footwork needed.  Queen Schmuck 19:18, 6 April 2007 (CDT)

Hero Spiritway FTL!
Ok, so last night I went to Hero Battles to see a little of how the meta game was working since "PvP Necro Spiritway Nerf" (observer mode wasn't working for whatever reason, probably because ANet didn't want people to see that nerco nerf wasn't "fixing" spiritway at all). HAH! Spiritway Nerf my butt, I did a battle and within seconds of the other team meeting me in the middle, there were 3 spirits on the ground. Withing 6 seconds after that, there were more spirits than I could count! My Searing flames would smack them around for like 10 dmg (or they were healed that quick)! Then the human player started pommeling my team to death, doing an average of 40 dmg a hit with daggers (ouch!). Sometimes the person would only do like 10 dmg, but them the dmg would go right back up to 25-55 dmg a hit. I am pretty sure the human was using Conjure Flame, but I did not check the "dmg from" areas. Anyway, with Searing Flames Ele, 1 W, 1 D, and 1 Mo, I could not damage them enough, once their spirits were perma-up. I lost badly, as the only deaths I was able to cause were right at the beginning, 4-25 (not sure, he might have had higher than 25, but I know I only had 4).

Note:
 * the only Monk on the other team was a Rt/Mo, and I don't think the hero ever used a healing spell, might have been Hex/Condition Removal only.

If this is the way Hero Battles is all the time, count me out from that crap. I did HB one other time, right when it came out. At least then it was fun. Now it is "who can get the most spirits up first".

If this is the way GvG and AB are going, wtf? Why even play? It has nothing to do with "skill", as ANet loves to say, but only about using retarded builds that are just that, retarded. Queen Schmuck 15:30, 7 April 2007 (CDT)

When I do HB, I often bring 2 characters with Spiritual Pain, and sometimes an interrupter. Might seem like overkill, but I can steamroll just about any spirit-based build. Plus the AI likes to spam them at the same spot, a firestorm works wonders on them :) Tycn 00:13, 8 April 2007 (CDT)


 * Considering that after I wiped the team the first time, I was never again able to kill one of them (seriously, they couldn't die!), I don't think that is overkill at all. Spiritual Pain, I like your thinking, an AoE Signet of Sorrow against IWAY peeps like skill.  I never saw one enchantment on any of them, so I think it was all spirits and weapon spells.  Consume Soul and Signet of Creation (AoE spirit deaths, no benefit to me though) are also skills I will probably bring on a hero.  I'll have to remember about the AoE too.  :P  Queen Schmuck 09:24, 8 April 2007 (CDT)
