I have been tracking and playing Guild Wars since day one and have been using Guildwiki for a guide as long as I could remember. I recently made a username and have recently submitted my own build. Feel free to check it out.(N/any Army of One) I'll update my userpage whenever I have time. Feel free to leave comments on my discussion page.

Description
An Army Of One minion master uses Aura of the Lich and Dark Aura to reduce the sacrificing cost of maintaining minions and dealing a constant flow armor-ignoring damage. The Army of One minion master is a front line spammer that uses minions as a meat shield. This build is suited for PvE.

Equipment

 * Scar Pattern Armor - For energy boost
 * Minion Master's Armor - For armor boost
 * Revenant's Armor - For health boost
 * A +5 energy/20% enchanting weapon (Totem Axe or Rajazan's Fervor are ideal weapons)
 * A Death Magic +1 and +30 Health Offhand
 * Having a high max hp is very helpful in this build, so anything that increases max hp would help. (Runes, Armor)

Usage
1. Cast and maintain Aura of the Lich

2. Cast and maintain Dark Aura

3. Cast and maintain Blood Renewal

4. Spam Wallow's Bite and Blood of the Master to deal armor-ignoring damage

5. When an exploited corpse is available, use Animate Bone Horror (Minion Master should be next to minions in the front line)

6. Blood of the master is to be used to heal minions and deal damage with Dark Aura

7. Consume Corpse maybe be used for health and energy management

Counters
1. Heavy Degen

2. Enchantment Removal

3. Unavailability of exploited corpses

4. Heavy AoE damage on minions

Variants
1. Touch of Agony may be used in the optional slot or in place of Wallow's Bite

2. With a Monk secondary, Contemplation of Purity may be used for an immediate health gain on emergency situations.

3. Other minions may replace Animate Bone Horror or be placed as a second minion in the optional slot. Vampiric Horrors may be used to heal the minion master.

4. Dark Bond would fit nicely into this build in the optional slot to reduce received damage.

5. Taste of Death may be replaced with Consume Corpse for a higher energy gain, but less health gain.

6. Death Nova may be added for additional damage.

7. In order to counter heavy degen, Infuse Condition may be used. With a Mesmer Secondary, Hex Breaker may be used. Other condition/hex removal skills can be put in the optional slot.
