Archive 1 of previously posted builds

Ok, before you guys all post your amazingly bad builds, please use the following format:

{{ Skill bar
 | 1 = Dwayna's Kiss
 | 2 = Orison of Healing
 | 3 = Words of Comfort
 | 4 = Healer's Boon
 | 5 = Heal Party
 | 6 = Dismiss Condition
 | 7 = Deny Hexes
 | 8 = Rebirth
 | size = 30
 | outline = 1
 | text = hide
}}

which produces:

Dwayna's Kiss.jpg
Orison of Healing.jpg
Words of Comfort.jpg
Healer's Boon.jpg
Heal Party.jpg
Dismiss Condition.jpg
Deny Hexes.jpg
Rebirth.jpg

Unless the usage is really complex keep it short, e.g. "apply degenerative hexes and run around" or "use spirits behind door then use summon spirits to move them" File:User Chieftain Alex Chieftain Signature.jpg Chieftain Alex 13:24, 28 March 2012 (UTC)

Signet of Ghostly Might.jpg
Mend Body and Soul.jpg

Very easy. Works on any class. Secondary Ritualist. 11 Communing, 8 Restoration, 11 Channeling. When the Round starts, move right outside the door but no further, and go down the line on your bar Pain, Anguish, Vampirism, Shadowsong, Bloodsong. Click as fast as possible all in same spot, no need to move. The enemy AI very commonly runs back and forth as you are spawning them instead of attacking you, even the final boss Magni will run back and forth until you are done. Then just cast Painful Bond, then Signet of ghostly Might, and they will all die very quickly. Even enemies with AOE typically die to fast for you to care. It's very easy. Mend Body and Soul is on the list but I honestly never used it the many times I ran this mission to get all hero unlucks, horn quest item, Moa quest item, and 5 rewards for the crown. Enjoy.


This just doesnt really have any effect on the last boss lol. Doesnt work at all. This might work for some classes, but for sure not for most of them. It's also just not even thought out at all. you cant even cast that many spirits on most classes before they start to expire because of the energy lack.

TemplateCode: OQATER6WXymcX0o0vYwgwIrgvAA Come out of the gate spamming YMLaD, then hit EVAS. UB will take care of everyone up to Magni. For Magni, after EVAS, Deadly Riposte, then cycle through the remaining skills as they come up. Use YMLaD and UB to give yourself some distance and run around if getting low on health, then repeat the rotation. HanokOdbrook (talk) 20:57, 22 May 2023 (UTC)

Maintain Avatar of Balthazar and all your enchantments the best you can, and never stop attacking. Protective Spirit and Mystic Regeneration both last 15 secs with those stats so it's better to always cast them together. Against enemies with knockdowns, start casting them as soon as they're both off cooldown. Use Zealous Sweep, Aura Slicer, and Heart of Fury off cooldown for damage in that order. Not that great but I was able to beat Sogolon, Orion, Danika (took forever), Eve (was close), Mhenlo (annoying), and finally Magni with this. Ideka (talk) 14:48, 25 December 2018 (UTC)

Ranger[edit]

Note: More of a tip(s) discussion of any that exist for Rangers in the Norn arena.

Tried out a few types of builds, some do excellent results until the final fight while others complete the arena but struggle to fight enemies with any level of sustain.

Thoughts of specific status conditions: Knockdown - Great way to burst anyone except the final round. Like you can knock the boss down, but good luck trying to burst that beef cake. Cripple - Great on final round boss since they do not heal whatsoever if it is a longer duration. Otherwise, gotta have more damage/interrupt sources. Bleed - Great to pair with Cripple. However, you still gotta have some level of burst damage or Interrupts to prevent healing in previous stages. Poison - Pairs well with bleeding, but still not doing much against sustain/healing. Deep Wound - Great against sustain, but if any of the enemies you face can fight back... Then you may need some sustain or a pet to distract with. Weakness - Not great to use unless pairing Knockback with certain skills.

Builds attempted: R/A Delrimor fist galore (Lost) - I thought I had to use Brass Knuckles. I did not survive against the first opponent. R/W Hammer Beastmaster (Lost) - Great against anyone except the final round. Was using a combo to get 3 knockdowns in a row with Devastating Hammer > Brawling Headbutt > Heavy Blow as that combo tend to end the fight until fighting the beef cake. R/Any Marksmanship Beastmaster (Won) - This worked, but was barely doing enough damage or interrupted the right skill to finish each fight. The final boss is a breeze if you only let the pet approach. Ideal pet to use is high HP given the beef cake hits like a truck either 2-3 shotting the level 20 dire pet.

Any Builds you all like to share if you happened to run Ranger in the Norn arena? BB19 (talk) 23:37, 26 December 2024 (UTC)
