Factions

Kisai - her bar would be really excellent with Chain Lightning, though I can see you want factions only skills :/

Su - Bone Fiend + Vamp Horror - enough energy to manage both? (I presume you've hero tested many of these builds :) )

Eotn

Lina - Shielding Hands is usually used better by the AI than SoA, it lasts longer, heals and has 1/4 sec activation.

Odura - Why Lightning Javelin over Signet of Clumsiness?

All the rest of the bars are pretty decent considering limited skill choice. Chieftain Alex 18:53, 27 January 2013 (UTC)

For Kisai it is indeed a shame Factions does not offer any good OC spells and that Lightning Orb no longer inflicts cracked armor, else i could have made her build much more effective. But yeah the lack of Chain Lightning is because i only went for the skills that are available in Factions. For Su i hesitated if i should give her Bone Minions and Death Nova and give her a bomber build or Bone Fiend and Blood of the Master for a backline damage, i went for the latter.

About Lina's build i might change that and Odurra, she still needed a secondary profession skill so i gave her Lightning Javelin to give her a form of unconditional AoE damage and anti-martial skill, it can easily interrupt multiple foes. But Su's build may still be changed as well as Lina's build. If something else is on your mind about these builds just let it know. Da Mystic Reaper 20:54, 27 January 2013 (UTC)

Iv'e double checked a few Factions builds, primarily those of Jamei, Kisai and Su and they play their builds without much problems. Su can easily maintain 9 minions, and altough she does hit 0 energy occasionaly she has no problems maintaining her minions. Jamei also has little problem with her energy, if there is a second healer present, alone she does have energy problems because she will use Jamei's Gaze much more often. Kisai still remains somewhat of a concern, primarily because her low level does not allow her to take Lightning Hammer and thus lacks a source of cracked armor making Shock Arrow useless for her, in case of overcast i have not seen many cases where overcast reaches a high ammount. If foes are fought in short intervals or the fight drags on she does have energy problems, but due to a lack of better options i'll leave her build at that (why didn't they update LH into a bar compression skill having both OC and CA >_<).

Is it feasible/practical for Stefan/Reyna/Orion/Alesia to available in Pre-searing? And assuming Anet updates Monks in a meaningful-way, it'd be awesome inf Alesia was made into the first "Smiter Henchmen". --Falconeye 01:14, 28 April 2013 (UTC)

Well only for EotN Alesia could be added as a smiter hench, for Proph not because then Proph would no longer have a healer hench. But i gues you want to see henches in Pre for those quests right? There already is 1 problem, Orion is already present as an NPC in Pre so you would need to find someone else to fill that gap or reduce the ammount of available henchmen to only 2. Let's say Alesia as a supportive healer and Stefan stefan as a sturdy tank taking in the damage (without Frenzy ofc), that would be good enough already. Da Mystic Reaper 12:25, 28 April 2013 (UTC)
