Basic idea is the top 5 fight at the stand, mesmer runs flags, bottom 2 gank. Mesmer can also join gank if not needed at the stand, in which case the assassin runs the flag. Res use preference should go to the paragons first (ie don't waste sigs). Dervish should have Recall on the rit at all times.

I suppose if it needs to split, the assassin and mesmer can go off with the ele.

Not so original KGYU idea stolen from Be Team [be]

2x Conjure Cripslash

Cripshot (same as Burning Arrow)

R/Rt Flagstand BHA - Barbed Arrows, Broadhead Arrow, Savage Shot, Distracting Shot, Debilitating Shot, Antidote Signet, Natural Stride, Flesh of my Flesh

Me/N Tainted - Rotting Flesh, Tainted Flesh, Leech Signet, Mantra of Inscriptions, Signet of Humility, Putrid Explosion, Mirror of Disenchantment, Res Sig

SoR water flagger

LoD & RC monks

The name of the game is mass condition pressure. Between bleeding, poison, and disease, everyone will be stacked with degen and cripple will hamper mobility. The build can split off the Cripshot and a Cripslash if needed, but it prefers to fight 7v7 and overwhelm with massive pressure, and leave base defense as much as possible to the flagger. Dual cripslash means usually the warriors pick seperate targets to pressure and degen, converging to finish low ones off. The only off-monk defense when the flagger isn't around is cripple, so the cripshot needs to be practiced, and a cripslash may need to switch in "linebacking" duties by hitting a warrior with cripslash when adren is charged. The mesmer has a very impotant role of taking out those pesky monk elites, especially restore condition, so the degen can do its job.

Just thought it's something we might try given none of us know how to call adrenal spikes (without giving them away) yet.

We had some major success with this AB build today... though it may have just been the weak opponents. Its not very good at splitting either which makes it questionable for our hall, but I'm posting it here for reference at least.

A "simple" build from RUS for us pressure cooking newbs

1) W/E - Hammer, earthshaker, hammerbash, shock.
2) W/mo (sometimes also take E) hammer - Devastating, Heavy, healsig, holy veil.
3) D/X - Avatar of melandru dervish with wearying strike.
4) Ranger/monk - broadhead arrow ranger. (can drop res sig for purge sig)
5) E/mo - mindblast elementalist with aegis and glyphsac reschant
6) E/mo - mindblast elementalist with aegis and flame djinns haste for flag running.
7) Mo/A - Rc prot with return
8) Mo/A - lodinfuser with return

"Just put a hammerwarrior on each opponent monk, while the dervish hits stuff and calls spike. The damage is insane and more than once you will ROLL people."

You do realize that the purpose of this thread was to promote people to create their own GvG builds, not just copy/paste what other guilds are doing?

Right, but who here is going to do that?

Can stick these in another thead if you like, they're just the "hey here's some cool builds, maybe we will use em maybe we wont use" thread. No problem making another to do that if you want..

[Lurker Wyrm]

I don't really mind, I'm just trying to give you a kick in the pants to try and come up with something original. You don't need to re-invent the wheel or anything, you could even just take a build you saw that you liked and redo a few things; if they used an air ele for damage and you wanted a fire ele, or changing a mes from dom to illusion. Then you adapt the other builds to work with it (i.e. cripslash works with illusion and evisc works better with dom) and the next thing you know you've got your own build. If nothing else it'll help you become a better player since you have to look at how builds work together and compliment each other.
