    With HR you can literally do whatever you want. Esurge+bone minions, Signet of Illu with /Mo with smiting or /N with minions/death nova/curses hexes. Fully depends on what u want. Looking for more damage, more variation?

    Was looking for possibly more Damage but still would like to add a bit more Variation. Was thinking a bit along the KSS Mesmers if seen in your Builds or maybe every Mesmer with a different Elite. My understanding ist that Mesmers benefit the most out of the +4 to all Attributes. If there are maybe some other Builds im overlooking i would be up for that as well.

    Alright, what’s your playstyle? Do you use cons/pcons? As little heal as possible or just want it safe enough? Resses or ress scrolls?


    I’ll make you a setup or a few different options somewhere next week. About to head to a bday:)

    I use cons and pcons but not so much on para so far. Usually safe enough as i sometimes play brain-afk. Can be without Resses i think.


    Thank you very much. Enjoy!

    Alright, so for the cons version I would run these attributes. I tried getting their main attributes to 15 (+4 HR +1 Conset = 20).

    I have done the calcs below, so check it out and enjoy the madness :P

    P/W HR Boiii (or Guuurrlllll)

    OQGkgqlqpWVEAQQWPWNGPxVRMIQI

    Leadership: 10 + 1 + 3 + 5 = 19

    Command: 10 + 1 + 5 = 16

    Spear Mastery: 10 + 1 + 5 = 16

    Tactics: 5 + 5 = 10

    N/Rt BiP Resto

    OAhjEyEqBS3BVVciDTSTRTTOZM

    Blood Magic: 10 + 1 + 2 + 5 = 18 (BiP caps at +7 here, no need for more)

    Soul Reaping: 8 + 2 + 5 = 15

    Restoration Magic: 12 + 5 = 17

    Rt/P ST Command

    OAmjQqgrpOYTnZ40694gm07dM

    Spawning Power: 10 + 1 + 3 + 5 = 19 (ST caps here, no need for more)

    Communing: 11 + 3 + 5 = 19 (felt like Command deserved more points compared to 19vs20 Communing)

    Command: 10 + 5 = 15

    Me/Mo VoR Gift of Health

    OQNEILkD1642yBZATXRYIgTDj

    Fast Casting: 9 + 3 +5 = 17 (this is plenty already, wanted the heal to be very OP to recover the BiP)

    Domination Magic: 10 + 1 + 3 + 5 = 19 (again, plenty)

    Inspiration Magic: 4 + 2 + 5 = 11

    Healing Magic: 10 + 5 = 15

    Me/E Keystone Domination DF

    OQZDArwrN/AuGy30VEGC4U1B

    Fast Casting: 11 + 1 + 3 + 5 = 20 (gotta love keystone + HR ftw ^^)

    Domination Magic: 12 + 3 + 5 = 20 (gotta love keystone + HR ftw ^^)

    Water Magic: 6 + 5 = 11

    Me/P Keystone Domination Command

    OQljAsCspN/AuGy30VEGC17dM

    Fast Casting: 11 + 1 + 3 + 5 = 20 (gotta love keystone + HR ftw ^^)

    Domination Magic: 12 + 3 + 5 = 20 (gotta love keystone + HR ftw ^^)

    Command: 6 + 5 = 11

    Me/N Keystone Bone Fiend

    OQRFAbxRJ0EzPgnmnNd9gq6UlKA

    Fast Casting: 11 + 1 + 3 + 5 = 20 (gotta love keystone + HR ftw ^^)

    Illusion Magic: 5 + 1 + 5 = 11

    Domination Magic: 4 + 1 + 5 = 10

    Death Magic: 12 + 5 = 17

    Me/N Keystone Bone Fiend

    OQRFAbxRJ0EzPgnmnNd9gq6UlKA

    Fast Casting: 11 + 1 + 3 + 5 = 20 (gotta love keystone + HR ftw ^^)

    Illusion Magic: 5 + 1 + 5 = 11

    Domination Magic: 4 + 1 + 5 = 10

    Death Magic: 12 + 5 = 17

    I was thinking maybe something like this would work pretty well. Rt/E has quite good offensive AoE pressure thanks to 2x PI mesmers for Aftershock. Weaken Armor for more armor-respecting damage, 2x PI for AoE knockdown, Deep Freeze for another snare, Me/Mo Keystone for a little extra healing to be on the safer side:p

    Another masterpiece. I vote for 10/10 gwamms

    So how this build ended? Can we have codes? Do you recommend it?

    Hey Gentleman Xander , nice builds you have here!
    I was thinking of running Order of the Vampire on my necro and I am trying to find a good hero team (mercenaries included) based on physical damage.

    If you are still doing this, would you try to think of a player build with Order of the Vampire (any other skill can be in the bar) and a physical damage hero team to supplement it? The goal is to be able to clear HM content with it. Thanks 🙂

    New project:

    Anniversary Melee Dhuum Ele:

    The current setup I have in mind:

    I am feeling very sure that I am in desperate need of more protection so I might have to change the heroes around. Atleast this is the first try at it :p

    Alright, trial 1 was quite a success. I did the boss quest chain to get IAU, no deaths but still the healing feels a bit off. I think 1 AoD derv might just not be enough. I have changed a few other things across the heroes. The build really is fun and it's also fun to know that you only have each prof only once in the team :D

    Just a few sidenotes:

    • R/W: Pretty much had full energy the whole time, will try a few things out to make sure we get the most out of him (i.e. take hamstring after all and/or swap Riposte for Deadly Riposte)
    • P/W: Same story as R/W. Added in Awe (10 energy cost) which dazes KD'd foes -> PI synergy. Mostly curious to see how the hero will use it.
    • Me/N: Swapped Arcane Conundrum for Mark of Pain. I felt like the hero didn't need the extra energy alongside a BiP (same goes for Drain Enchantment)
    • D/Mo: Can easily maintain Strength of Honor on all 3 melees (can even maintain 4 with a BiP very easily).
    • N/E: Dropped Jaundiced Gaze for Dark Fury (Might be dropping points here in Blood and/or Fire and also take Curses here and drop the adrenaline stuff (or atleast one of them)).
    • Mo/Me: Dropped Shield of Absorption for Shield Guardian (Like I mentioned, the healing felt off. I think Shield Guardian might be a good addition to heal a bit better).
    • Rt/Me: Swapped Nightmare Weapon for Warmonger's Weapon (very good rupts esp on any of the 3 melees with speedy attacks) and Lamenation for Mending Grip (again; healing).

    Very bold of you to try melee ele dhuum. Respect :thumbup:

    Have you considered constant upkeep of Shelter, plus Protective Bond / Protective Spirit? The % max life protection might give you enough time to retreat from difficult situations.

    I usually run ST hero with Shelter, Shadowsong, and Disenchantment, gives more uptime for Shelter. Just an idea ;)

    The idea was to take as little as meta builds I could. I know there are way better ways to not die, but where’s the fun in that:D Also I have always preferred a protter over ST personally for the build options it offers. ST is always stuck to ST, but previously I used to run N/Mo with any elite tbh, all were viable (UA, Aura of Faith, divert hexes you name it)
