Worth working on this build? - Guild Wars Forums

Is this worth working on? I know the base principle have been used alot of times, but this just seems more bullet proof and powerful that the classic Life Barrier monk setup.

What do you think? This is pure speculation

Is this supposed to be a joke? Are you trolling or are serious?

In case you're serious, you have 8 skills in bar and you can't take the same skill twice. Whirling farmer

Those are 5 bars - lol

Sigh, please post a coherent build for people to comment on. I have no idea what you are asking for in your original post.

Well for starters the prot bonds won't stack so there is 0 point in ahve 3 of them. 1 ER can prot bond a whole team. Then 2 skills do not make builds. For example in the whirling bar...w/o question you would need shroud, but it's not there. Combining the mop and eoe is not a good idea either. If you are going to try and mop on a target that has aggro on a whirling farmer, it'll be better to have a long range jump (shadow of haste/recall...etc) to loose aggro jic. Depending on the foes it might be necessary for an aoe cover hex as well. And lastly I just dont see the point in 5 ppl when 3 can do the same thing.

Protbonds energy denial does get split however. Ebond then would pay for it. I'd take Life bond and balth for the occasional stuff that doesn't trigger ebond. I guess you could work on it, but solo usually is just as ez.

@ Snow - Ofc 2 skills dont make a bar, but no reason to post an entire SF bar, most people know how to run it anyway

Also, i cant see why casting mop and running away is very different from casting SS and running away, as we've done in years.

And as mentioned above, protbonds does stack, and having essence bond on aswell results in 0 energy loss - im not sure if a single Emo bonder can withstand the energy loss from 10-15-20 foes hitting at once (?)

an emo can definitely take 20 enemies.

Thanks for the information. That opens up for bringing an Emo Bonder instead of 3 heroes.

You sir, are wrong and have obviously have not EMo'ed before or you're tanking mobs outside of ascalon.
There is no way an emo can hold 20 enemies that are triggering prot bond by itself.

Tanking ~9 foes at a time can prove difficult without a full conset, personals and help via extra enchantments.
