With req 10 and 15 armor it would have been the perfect 1 off shield 😂

Wouldnt have expected anyone else but you to comment that😜

this is probably meme-build territory, but have you tried a team build to max out the effect/targets of the rit anniversary elite?

I have thought about it and I didnt like the idea. The weapons you will get are completely random and therefore have a very high chance of just being "meh" or straight up useless:p. Besides, to fully take advantage of the PvE Elite, you'd have to run a physical focused team that can be quite easily stopped by either: a lot of conditions, a lot of hexes, blocks, "general melee hate" (aka Shadow of Fear, Shared Burden, you name it). I dont know how well hero AI will use stance removals or whether they see it as just another attack skill. I know that foes use them as general attacks over using them as a stance removal.

How about derv hero with like avatar of Dwayna ?

Edit or frenzy 100b koss with deaths charge !

I dont really like hero AI with Dervish Avatar skills, they only use them during combat and are therefore rupted quite often. Besides that, I'd assume that if I'd take a melee hero (without death's charge), they'd probably be useless if they'd get snared and not cleansed with this many mesmers. That's why I decided to go for a Barrage ranger as it provides the most targets without losing time from running towards the mobs. I could also just take another mesmer but I thought that this might be an interesting way to change it up a bit^^

Okay, so I tried to make a Rit Heal build with a team. Kinda came up with something interesting imo^^

So the R/Rt brings Rt spirits for quite low energy cost thanks to Expertise (Life (4 energy), Rejuvenation (4 energy), Recovery (5 energy) without cons (3/3/5 with cons)). I choose this as a half support half offensive hero since I had a free PvE skill slot and thought GDW+Barrage might be a very good combo on a hero. Theoretically, the damage you lose from dropping Marksmanship and investing in Restoration is negated out by the damage buff from GDW with an additional chance to KD the targets. I also threw on two rupts for those extra fast attacks, since Barrage should be the main attack skill of this build.

The rest of the hero builds are rather normal.

As for the player build, I decided to go Rt/Mo for some prots and the best skill in the game; Selfless Spirit. Since I have the R/Rt bring all the Rt spirits I want/need, it freed up another slot on my build.

Let me know your thoughts;)

I summon Blind Was My Fury to help you with your struggle.

8 rit team build is the way to go beat those record times

I mean… I kinda helped him with the builds 👀

Edit: And I have done a VQ with the Rit Squad. All I could think it that it felt painfully slow compared to most other team builds I played :p

And here it is.... 9/10!!!!

Great. Which class is left ?🔥🔥🔥

Ritualist is next. Haven’t found a build that I want to play on it so far. So going for a 2nd Warrior GWAMM while figuring it out. I refuse to play braindead spirit spam and ritualist really doesn’t have that many great elite skill options. So it will be a bit of a headache haha

And here it is.... 9/10!!!!

What kind of kamikaze build are you running 👀

Bump from a train.

Will contact people this week regarding items with sufficient offers. Took a bit longer than expected, apologies!

Never seen this high amount of gold drop from a boss in NM :o

Or should I go a kind of different route.... I call this "Main Character Syndrome". A full supportive team to give the Main Character a bigger ego

Do it but you might need scan !

I was thinking of running that for the areas where it would really be necessary (for example if there are a ton of rangers/warrior with blocks), or running Wild Blow to just cancel the stances themselves. I doubt I'd have a lot of trouble against Enchantments that block since I can always add additional Enchantment removals

Something that I did notice a lot while VQ'ing on my Necromancer. I am not sure if there are any differences between Hero AI and Merc Hero AI, but I have noticed that my Rt/Me Hero LOVES to cast Splinter Weapon on Shrines (EotN) or Priests (NF), even if they aren't even close to the group. Anyone encountered something similar? :o

Or should I go a kind of different route.... I call this "Main Character Syndrome". A full supportive team to give the Main Character a bigger ego

Alright, tried to compact it a bit more and dropped Orders since I felt like there were other better options. Not too sure about the Me/Mo (I have tried the rit build but it felt lacking for some reason) and maybe the Shared Burden Mesmer... I do think the first 3 heroes are as solid as it gets. It's just a matter of finding those last few missing pieces :p

Just finished the last NF VQ, Lahtenda Bog, with probably my best time yet 362 foes in 26mins

Haha yeah it was a bit confusing but figured it’s always safe to atleast post it and see:p

Will keep it in mind tho

Helloooo

I think I got something new :o

Helloooo

I don't see it :0

q8 highest dmg we have 9-40 and 10-35, whilst minimum is 8-21- so it does seem to me to be in the scope. do I miss something? thanks for posting either way

Display More

Well for minimum q10 you seperated 8-31 and 9-30 so I assumed you might also do the 10-xx^^

Helloooo

I think I got something new :o

Here's a small adaption of the W/D Magehunter's Strike Build that I will be running for my next GWAMM project. I thought it was only appropriate to run this build after creating the armor set. Both Magehunter's Strike and Protector's Strike have a cast time of 1/2 second making them extremely fast on a scythe (they also recharge very fast, so after using both adrenaline attack skills, you can go back to smashing 1-2-3-4 on a loop if you hit enough targets). This fits very well with the Executioner vibes that the armor gives off

And one more to finish today off;) 242 Foes Mehtani Keys in 17mins

Can I get a bump?

Will consider current offers next bump!:)

How about this one... A mix of Elite Sunspear, Elite Kurzick and Kurzick armor:

Alright so I have been working on my Warrior setup a bit, since I am almost done with NF VQs. After that, it's pretty much only Skill Hunter left:)

So this is what I have so far:

The last slot will be one of the following ones. I just can't decide on what I like more. If I go for the Me/Mo PI, I will change the Me/Rt PI Domination to either Hex Eater Vortex or Esurge. The most useful I think will be the Rt/Mo since I am using scythe, Splinter Weapon will only last 2 attacks (if I manage to hit 3 targets each time) so having a 2nd one will increase the chance of having it on you. The Water Magic E/Mo is nice as it also provides snares in addition to the knockdowns from PI.

Fun fact: If you "pre-cast" PI on a hero (aka give it a green tick), the hero will use it on your target as soon as it uses a skill^^

Here we go:) Can finally skip shrines for Bounties, since I will max title with the amount of VQs that are left^^ I can feel the Speed Force returning!

279 Foes 24mins

I also dont think you have to be in compass range for the pet to level up. I have had instances where it leveled up and I was nowhere near it. Not sure though, been awhile since I had a low level pet xD

Yo!

I got a q3/11 blue inscr one. Cant remember if it’s Defender or Tower (or if one cant drop that low q or not). Just let me know 😜

Edit:

Now these are times that we are used to xD

And another clean fast one (291 foes; also best bounty route)

And this will make it all come full circle;)))

Maybe need to contact the developer to make desolation masks so we can delete the wurms from the game \o/

Kill them with fire before they lay eggs! 🤣

Joko's Domain is always a painful one. Atleast a clean run Time to get Basalt Grotto:D

Here's a bunch of new Player Builds! Remember: Missing skills are Elite PvE skills^^

I think I might actually go with this one. It just looks cleaner and also fun to use a helmet you rarely see anyone else use^^

Arbor Bay used to be a nightmare... This was my cleanest yet. Bonus: 3 Gold Greater Sage Blades dropped

Bjora marches VQ. This happened. No favor... What are the odds O_o
