The better of the 2 monks

Broad Head Arrow, Choking Gas, Savage Shot, Apply Poison, Throw Dirt/Dust Trap, damage
Me/N
Diversion, Blood Rit, Power Block, Gaze of Contempt, Drain Enchantment
E/Mo
Ward Against Melee, Ward of Stability, Ward Against Foes, Heal Party, Eruption?, Res SPELL(omgzorz!)
Monk
The not-quite-as-better monk
Runner
E/Mo
Armor of Mist, Blinding Flash, Heal Party, Blurred Vision, Frozen Burst, Maelstrom?

I've seen ether prodigy on most Ele's. Can't say I'm entirely sold on it though so I will leave this up to the Ele's.

General advice:
Do NOT put conditions on a W/N, they will have plague touch.
Runner, run the flag. We will tell you if we need your help.


We have to be agressive against their monks right away. I would suggest killing ones enchants and putting the choking gas ranger on it, while the other gets hit with the shock war and assassin and runner(can't cast heals if he's on his butt ).

Also, set it up in the party window the way we want to split. We may send the top 3 to take care of some NPC's at some point.

I know experimenting with an assassin can be tricky, and if it's not working after a few tries we can always switch in a 2nd shock warrior.

[Khunlin]

I'm probably best suited to Monking ATM... I can do either Ele if they don't use Ether Prodigy, but in a pinch I can just throw Khuril out and make one of the Eles.

Monking is my first choice, though.

Look I'm not a walking GW encyclopedia so here's the new rule: If you post something involving builds on these forums then every build needs to be posted in the appropriate build forum. That's why they are there I assume.
So, wtf is a shock warrior?

[Khunlin]

Hehehehe... I don't know either.

I just know they use Shock. And they're Warriors >.>

I do agree, though. I think we should have some builds in our build sections.

[Delor]

We need to practice. We lost to 3 good guilds, VERY good guilds. The Spearmen win halls a lot, and the other teams just outplayed us and capitalized on a few mistakes. I think we need to do at least 1 night GvG each week. Also, watch more observer mode, you can learn a lot.

[sybarite]

I agree, we need more practice. Practice practice practice. We also need a build with a fair amount of offense. We can't win unless we're killing.
If people are feeling particularly masochistic we should rotate roles so people can get a chance in the hot seat and perhaps discover unknown talents. I'll try target calling sometime if everyone on the team has their expectations set to "low".

Also, could someone post up the design goals of a GvG build? I would like to think about it and make some suggestions but I need to know what ingredients should be incorporated. Thanks.

There are two really good links up in the Helpful Links thread in General Guild Chat that should be just what you're looking for.

Damage was not the problem...after the first match. We didn't have an overall coordinator. I think we were all waiting for someone to step up, and since it was my build it probably should have been me so I appologize for not doing it. Maybe next time we can get Malae to come along. Also, get busy capping Blessed Light you monks. It makes WoH look like crap. I will put a link to a cookie-cutter version of the Blessed Light Monk in the build forums.
