Keep in mind for the future that you can't rate builds while they're in the Trial phase (when the box on the build page is orange). -- Mafaraxas 22:43, 14 April 2008 (EDT)

plz tell me you don't actually use Word of Censure.  Antiarchangel  TROLL  19:29, 2 May 2008 (EDT)
 * Yup! Then again, I smite, not heal.  It's a great skill, decent damage, spammable, and smiters rarely have energy problems. [[Image:EkkoWord.jpg|50x19px]]"Ekko (Brother Starr)" [[Image:EkkoEscape.jpg|50x19px]] 19:33, 2 May 2008 (EDT)
 * .....  Antiarchangel [[Image:Antiarchangel No U Sig.png|19px]] TROLL  19:38, 2 May 2008 (EDT)
 * What? Not allowed to use that other attribute?  Is that like paragons being bad? [[Image:EkkoWord.jpg|50x19px]]Ekko (Brother Starr) [[Image:EkkoEscape.jpg|50x19px]] 00:25, 3 May 2008 (EDT)
 * General concensus here is that Paragons are actually overpowered. - Star Seeker  |  My talk  19:35, 3 May 2008 (EDT)
 * I know. "Paragons suck" is an absurd and ignorant claim.  Kind of like "Never use Smiting Prayers/Other unpopular attributes."  Thus, the comparison.  [[Image:EkkoWord.jpg|50x19px]]Ekko (Brother Starr)  23:53, 3 May 2008 (EDT)
 * cause there are some gud smiting prayer skills, Balthazar's Pendulum, but there's mostly bad smiting prayer skills, IE most of the do damage to target skills.  Antiarchangel [[Image:Antiarchangel No U Sig.png|19px]] TROLL  17:14, 4 May 2008 (EDT)
 * Ironic. We have exact opposite definitions of good skills for a smiting monk.  While Pendulum and Strength of Honor etc. are great support skills, the smite monk (a monk focusing on Smiting Prayers) is in it to deal damage more than support.  For them (and me), Word of Censure/Smite/Spear of Light/etc. are your standard skills, and Smite Hex/Condition or Judge's Insight are filler and support skills.  Smiters are *not* primary support.  They're mainly damaging characters (and I've had eople tell me my monk deals more damage than their ele).  Damaging Monks are uncommon, but still viable.

Help!
I've seen some builds format a skill link (in the page, not the build template) so that mousing over it pops up the effect of the skill at a given attribute. The code they use is something like 50x19pxEkko (Brother Starr) 13:51, 10 May 2008 (EDT)

Obby 600/smite
could you change you vote please your explanation is bad because it can farm cof and soj was put in there buy some else who vandalized my build Iainmac79
 * Ah. Looking over the build, and knowing the update was vandalism, I'll change my vote.  I appologize for that misunderstanding. [[Image:EkkoWord.jpg|50x19px]]Ekko  (Brother  Starr)  17:12, 30 May 2008 (EDT)

I think
I just saw you in RA; I was playing a bad warrior without equips except for a hammer and you hexed the shit out of me. Oh, you used reapers mark and then your warriors raped the shit out of me, thats unfair. stop hacking guild wars. Brandnew. 16:53, 4 June 2008 (EDT)
 * Today? No.  I failed at HA with some guildies.  My character would have had "Starr" in it's name, btw.  Yesterday, it's possible. I ran a Soulbind/Wastrel's Worry melee shutdown build, and someone else on my team might have brought Reaper's Mark.  And, I don't hack guild wars.  I make it hack itself =P.

New Sig!

Your Signature
Unfortunately, needs to be fixed. Right now it doesn't clearly state your Username, and it's also messing up line spacing on talk pages. &mdash; Rapta   (talk|contribs) 20:57, 5 June 2008 (EDT)
 * OK, I'll go and change it. As for clearly stating my username, doesn't Ibreaktoilet's signature say "Tab" on it?  <font color="Green">   Starr    [[Image:Ekko_Spyrokirby.jpg|27x19px]] <font color="LightBlue"> smite!  22:21, 5 June 2008 (EDT)
 * Is this better? (If possible, I'd like to have it say Starr instead of Ekko in the green text, but I'm fine if I can't) <font color="Green">  Ekko   [[Image:Ekko_Spyrokirby.jpg|27x19px]] <font color="LightBlue"> Starr!  (Stupid sig didn't work)(Again!)
 * Half the problem is fixed. The text is still disrupting the line spacing. &mdash; Rapta  [[image:Rapta_Icon1.gif|19px]] (talk|contribs) 23:19, 5 June 2008 (EDT)
 * Heh. Thought I fixed that as well.  I'll have Sig version 4.0 up soon.
 * Here it is. Hopefully, spacing-error-free.  <font color="Green"> Ekko  [[Image:Ekko_Spyrokirby.jpg|27x19px]] <font color="LightBlue"> Starr!  00:06, 6 June 2008 (EDT)

Bleeding Weather
There are thunderstorm watches all over SE Wisconsin, and tornado watches (and a friggin' warning) just went by. This doesn't bode well, especially as the storm's heading over Lake Michigan. Gah. <font color="Green"> Ekko  <font color="LightBlue"> Starr!  16:49, 6 June 2008 (EDT)

Meta Question
In the GvG/HA meta, is enchantment removal (on a large scale) common? In other words, would a team that uses a lot of enchantments be OK to run in the current meta? <font color="Green"> Ekko  <font color="LightBlue"> Starr!  20:33, 7 June 2008 (EDT)

I Have Returned!
Yay! <font color="Green"> Ekko  <font color="LightBlue"> Starr!  12:13, 29 June 2008 (EDT)

Why I'm Happy
I logged on and found a pair of max, req. 9, inscribable Demon Fangs in my storage today. I had them for a couple of months, and only just now realized that I could mod them up and sell them for well over 100k.

This, Had to

 * ''I will never give a build 3 0's.

''Innovation never deserves a 0, because if they copied another build, it will be WELLed, and you don't need to vote. ''
 * Not necessarily. Meta builds are not considered original. Remakes of old builds are not considered original. Builds that take meta elites and change it's purpose like putting Icy Veins on random necro bars is not original, but it is different and not worth of WELL.


 * Builds only get a 0 in Effectiveness if they are counterproductive or cannot be used. 

Frenzy+Mending as a farming build, for example, lets the monsters farm you 


 * This is kind of true, but it really doesn't matter.


 * Builds only get a 0 in Universality if they cannot be used 

''A build designed to farm UW with no way of dealing with the Dying Nightmares (and one that is vulnerable to them), for example. ''


 * Universality really means how flexible the build is. If your build fails if the foe isn't suffering from a hex, condition, enchantment and a knockdown, your build is pretty inflexible. But if your build has interrupts, ability to spike, pressure and requires nothing more than being able to use your skills, it is very flexible. Your example is effectiveness, not universality.

That I'll be able to come back to Guild Wars soon. WoW just can't compare. D= Unfortunately, I think my old guild basically died out. If anyone has a fun guild that's recruiting, drop me a line! Ekko Ekko Ekko Ekko    22:10, 3 August 2009 (UTC)
