This didn't work for me AFK, but was fantastic if I expended minimal effort with a R/Rt SoS build. Thanks for the build! Singing Wolf 02:40, 4 December 2011 (UTC)
 * glad it helped, it takes a few runs to find the optimal hero flagging setup. The weakness with this build tends to be when the backline gets alot of aggro because the aoe spells take out the spirits. other than that happening (maybe once in ten runs for me) I am able to consistently go afk which is great for getting school work done.-- Jarad 05:23, 5 December 2011 (UTC)
 * Would you be willing to put in a screencap of exactly where you flag your heroes? I can see how that might be my difficulty.  I'd like to work it out, I can get more school work done too.  =)  Or at least have less excuse to procrastinate. :D  All in all, I think this is the best all-hero build I've found yet for Glint's.

 * sure, I might make it a simply paint picture though since its hard to directly get an overhead view with all relevant points in.-- Jarad 20:44, 5 December 2011 (UTC)
 * I found the problem. I had flagged from right to left: Me/Rt, Me/Rt, E/Me, when I should have put the E/Me in the middle.  Totally my mistake, you stated that in the notes.  Once I corrected the postitions (Me/Rt, E/Me, Me/Rt), I was able to to it AFK the entire thing.  Thank you for the graphic showing where to flag everyone.  Confirmed that this build works as advertised.  =) Singing Wolf 09:37, 7 December 2011 (UTC)

I readjusted hero command settings for the e-surge one of them will of course be with the backline but I still run it in attack mode. Have you noticed any difference in performance based on that? I have always run it in attack mode so that it will go and attack enemies coming from the sides and/or behind, thereby grabbing aggro and reducing the chance the the healer/support heros do not grab the initial aggro.-- Jarad 17:38, 7 December 2011 (UTC)
 * I tried it, and I didn't notice any difference. I will try it a few more times and see.  I also made a note on the build about displaying the Dwarven Rank title.  Hope you don't mind. Singing Wolf 02:34, 12 December 2011 (UTC)
 * nope, that was actually a good addition. I remember using the title from time to time and it made the run go much smoother. thanks for updating the build =) -- Jarad 14:53, 12 December 2011 (UTC)

Blood Bond
I have started playing with blood bond on the Bipper rather than the rez. My reasoning is that it heals when the heros are simply wanding a target and all spirit attacks trigger it so it keeps spirits healthy. The rez was for when the heros pulled bad aggro and the mesmers died. Thoughts?-- Jarad 23:32, 20 January 2012 (UTC)

would just like to say thanks! this build worked great, I didn't completely afk, I bonded the mesmers and front elementalist with life barrier, then contributed every now and then with guardians, RoF and aegis - very impressed with how smoothly it went though!

Still the best
I find this to still be the best afk Glint's build. Now that I've gotten the hang of flagging and as long as I remember to have my Dwarven title up, it works perfectly! This should be in the main team pages, where more people can see it. You've done a great job, and your setup is far superior to the other Glint afk builds out there.

Thanks =) I favored survivability over speed and it still performs on par with the rest without anywhere near as much hassle. Glad you liked it-- Jarad 03:33, 23 September 2012 (UTC)
