Ok guys... to start off with the changes:

Dervish: I decided to put recall on the Dervish because i've noticed that on our map our runner seems to get ganked when capping the obelisk flag.  This way the dervish can keep his recall on the paragon, while he runs to the obelisk flag with the flag runner.  This way he can try and spike out the other teams flag runner then recall back to the paragon to start spiking.

Paragon: Punt and I decided that it would be better if the Paragon was pure defense.  He now has "Stand Your Ground!", Bladeturn Refrain, "Never Surrender!", and "Never Give Up!".  This is really going to help with the monks energy and if we face any Degen teams.

Fire E/Mo: I decided to put the skill Flame Djinn's Haste on the fire ele so that we can two different runners if necessary.  The Fire E/Mo goes back to base when there is a Crippling Anguish Mesmer ganker or anything thats not an Melee character.  He can run either glyph of lesser energy or fire attunement.

Water E/Mo: For this E/Mo I really wanted him to be able to heal against degen.  So i decided to put the elite heal party on him as well as Healing Breeze.  I also want the Runner to keep the theif with him at all times so incase a "Your All Alone!" Warrior or  Assassin comes to the base.

M/Ele: This is the one build that i completey remade.  I made this Me/Ele to not only be able to take care of base gankers, but to have some purpose with the main team.  Its main skills to stop melee gankers is Blinding Surge with Ignorance so that the gankers aren't able remove blind with signet of malice.  Blinding Surge is also very useful up front in the main battle.  The mesmer also contributes to the spike when he's with the main team.  He uses shatter enchant and Energy burn for extra damage on the spikes.

Monks: I also think we should try using and OoB Monk because we have a bunch of skills that help when health is below 75%.  The other monk I honestly have no clue, but these are just suggestions, because I dont like telling monks what they should and shouldn't run.

Ok... so this build is a little more complicated than the original build, but i really think it will become a good build with a little practice.  I'l be on tomorrow during the day to answer any questions about the build.  If you have any questions or concerns feel free and post.

Thanks guys

Hey guy... I know were just getting back into gvg and I know were all trying to get use to this new build...  I had some skill suggestions for the paragon that may or may not help us.  I noticed both times we lost was against melee adren spike.  Usually and Axe and sword.  I also noticed that when they spike that they would knock down the monk they were spiking, which made 1 monk have to heal the entire spike.  I like "Incoming", but it seems its only helpful if it catches a spike halfway through, which is tough to do.  So here are the new skills im suggesting:

 (16 Command)

"Stand Your Ground!"- Shout. For 37 seconds, all party members within earshot recieve 24 armour when not moving.

5 Energy
0 Cast time
45 sec Recharge

- I chose this skill because i noticed a bunch of spikes are knocking down the target before they spike.  This will be a nice added bonus to "Watch Yourself" when a target is being spiked.


Bladeturn Refrain- Echo. For 20 seconds, target non-spirit ally has +42 armour against slashing damage. This Echo is reapploed every time a Chant or Shout ends on that ally.

5 Energy
1 sec cast time
8 sec recharge

- This skill may be a little over the top, but i noticed that most spikes involve either an axe warrior or a sword warrior.  This could be kept up on both monks 24/7 which would once again dramtically reduce the amount of damage a monk would take during adren spike.


"We Shall Return!"- Shout. For 10 seconds, whenever party members within earsho use a resurrection skill, their fallen allies return with 79% more health, and 53% more energy.

10 Energy
0 sec cast time
15 sec recharge

- This would really help when a monk is dropped, because when they res it would pretty much garentee them to have 78% of their energy.


Leadership- 9+1
Spear- 6+1
Command- 12+1+3

- "Incoming!"
- "Stand Your Ground!"
- Blade Refrain
- "Fall Back!"
- Disrupting Throw
- "Watch Yourself!"
- "We Shall Return!"
- Signet of Return


These are all skills that I was curious about trying in GvG....  I do realize that Johnny will probably be playing the Paragon, so its up to him if he wants to run these new skills.  What i want to do first off is make sure everyone is feeling comfortable with the class their running before we try and advance the builds anymore.  We did very good tonight and I hope to keep GvGing a lot!!!

Another thing thats really good about this paragon is its ability to help the team A LOT during VoD!  The Stand Your Ground chant is perfect for the archers to give them some more armor. Blade Refrain on the Guild lord during VoD will reduce the amount of damage from the other teams warriors/guild lord.

Yeah i'm already missing GW..... but I have more time to sleep and chill wit muh ho fo sho.... lily wait on rank 9 u sack of shit... or atleast make sure im in vent or i will be pist off!!!!


Peace guys

I know that Energy Management has been nerfed so i decided to try and make a Paragon that can help monks with Energy and Defense.

Energizing Finale- For 10-30 seconds, whenever a Shout or Chant ends on a target ally, that ally gains 1-3 Energy.

Energy- 5
Cast Time- 1 sec
Recharge- 5 sec


Lyric of Zeal- For 10 seconds, the next time each ally within earshot uses a Signet, that ally gains 3-10 Energy.

Adrenaline- 6
Cast Time- 1 sec
Recharge- 5 sec


Aria of Zeal- For 10 seconds, the next time each ally within earshot uses a Spell, that ally gains 3-10 Energy.

Energy- 10
Cast Time- 1 sec
Recharge- 20 sec


Angelic Bond- For 10-35 seconds, all damage suffered by target other ally is divided equally with you. This is an elite skill.

Energy- 5
Cast Time- 1 sec
Recharge- 5 sec


Anthem of Flame- For 10 seconds, the next attack skill used by each ally within earshot also causes Burning for 1-3 seconds.

Energy- 5
Cast Time- 1 sec
Recharge- 10 sec


Blazing Finale- For 10-35 seconds, whenever a Chant or Shout ends on target ally, all foes adjacent to that ally are set on fire for 1-3 seconds.

Energy- 5
Cast Time- 1 sec
Recharge- 8 sec


Flurry- For 5 seconds, your attack rate is increased by 33%, but you deal 25% less damage.

Energy- 5
Cast Time- 0
Recharge- 5


Res Sig




This Build has Defense, Energy Management for Monks, and Damage.  The flurry is just for gaining adrenaline faster.  The last skill could really be anything, but this Paragon is spec'ed in Motivation and Leadership.  Angelic Bond would of course go on soft targets (probably monks).  Blazing Finale would probably go on the warrior, which would spread burning to a lot of people.  Energizing Finale would go on Monks while the paragon spams Lyric of Zeal as often as possible.  The only thing im curious about is if monks get the 10 energy if the sig is canceled half way.  I was hoping a monk could cast Sig of Devotion and move to cancel and still get the energy.  Either way, I think this will help monks manage there energy a lot better.

Monks... please tell me if you think this build would help yall out... Thanks

This is a pretty crazy build.... but I think we should try it.

I think the all warrior build would be fuckin awesome!!!  I'm down i think the last thing should be a Rit/Me or Rit/Ran and also have that weapon spell that makes it so attacks cant be blocked or evaded to help out one warrior.

1 Bull's Charge Warrior (Sword) (Flag Runner)
1 Dragon Slash Warrior (Sword)
1 Evicerate Warrior (Axe)
1 Anti-Warrior (Hammer)
1 Devestating Warrior (Hammer)
2 Monks
1 Rit (Spirits) (Natures, Tranq, etc.....) or (Expel Hexes)

The Chest Running Build for Hells Precipice is pretty simple...

W/A

Death's Charge
Charge [E]
Sprint
Heal Signet
Dash
"I Will Survive"
Endure Pain
Ressurection Signet

If you guys want to start earlier there are usually groups chest running all the time in Hells Precipice International District 1...... so if yall ever want to hit it up then feel free to.  We will get a group going eventually... cause if we can get around 4-6 person group going we could definately make some money.


The easiest way to make money is to sell your rares for 1k a piece to people searching for there UNID title.  Make sure to check for weapons mods on bows,swords,axes,hammers and so on.  Wands and staffs don't really sell for that much money any way so i usually don't identify them and sell them for 1k each.  By selling your rares for 1k each then you automatically make back the money you spent for keys and then you try and find more uber shit...

The Life Bond does seem pretty crazy, but I really think it will help on Alter maps keep the ghost alive longer.  Vital Weapon will be kept up on monks 24/7 which of course is an added 148 Life! Draw conditions for relic runs/deep wound on monks/Condition builds.  Sig of Creation is used on all three spirits that the Rt/Mo has to keep them up as long as possible.  Earthbind is an added bonus for the Wanderlust.  The two painful bonds will be put on two different targets.  Most likely it should be put on warriors attacking the rit or his spirits.

I honeslty think that this build will work very good in HA.  If ran with the right people I think the build would be very hard to stop.  If you have any suggestions feel free to post and tell me what you think.
