Guide talk:Permanent Shadow Form

I'll add more later, unless someone else wants to do it.-- Fire   Tock  's Button leads to Gwiki. 12:33, 27 May 2008 (EDT)

Sorry no account, but this is horrible... I dont see a A/E or A/Me or Me/A using frenzy anytime soon. You dont need at least 4 air magic. You might want 4 air if you want an improved recharge on Sliver as well. Stuff thats usefull A/E -> 10 ranks SA is enough with sup rune. A/Me only needs 10 points total, so 6 rankes +4. 10 ranks total for mesmer.

i was gonna say, why bother putting in warrior skills when your core skills are those of an assasin primary, and then either a mesmer or elementalist secondary, unles you've used the 3rd proffesion hax, you need re think it... ~PheNaxKian  (T /c) 15:38, 27 May 2008 (EDT)
 * Yeah, umm, i already had A/E/Me so i just put warrior in their if anyone could do something with it.-- Phail [[Image:Lord Belar Epic Fail.jpg|19px]]  Tock  A guide to this user. 16:41, 29 May 2008 (EDT)
 * as far as i'm aware only A/E or A/Me can Perma shadow form, warriors can't that i know of.... ~PheNaxKian  (T /c) [[Image:Phenaxkian_sig_phoenix.jpg|19px]] 16:44, 29 May 2008 (EDT)
 * Right, that's why you need a third proffesion.-- Phail [[Image:Lord Belar Epic Fail.jpg|19px]]  Tock  A guide to this user. 16:47, 29 May 2008 (EDT)
 * You do not need 4 points in air magic. 0 lets you perma shadow form. Lord of all tyria 16:48, 29 May 2008 (EDT)

You can't Perma-Shadow Form
with a Warrior secondary unless you use a very specific build (Air of Superiority, Essence of Celerity), so I don't see any point to having anything other than Mesmer and Elementalist Secondaries, unless you change the Guide name to just Shadow Form. -Mike 16:59, 29 May 2008 (EDT)


 * see above, we've discussed this ~PheNaxKian  (T /c) [[Image:Phenaxkian_sig_phoenix.jpg|19px]] 19:32, 29 May 2008 (EDT)
 * I noticed, but I'm suggesting changes to accommodate a Warrior Secondary. -Mike 21:02, 29 May 2008 (EDT)
 * If you can find a way to maintain it permanently with a warrior secondary fine, but that i know of there is no way for a warrior to do it.... ~PheNaxKian  (T /c) [[Image:Phenaxkian_sig_phoenix.jpg|19px]] 07:47, 30 May 2008 (EDT)

Asassin/Ranger
can do it with Serpents Quickness and an Essence, therefore, we can add in traps.-- Phail   Tock  A guide to this user. 00:11, 30 May 2008 (EDT)

 * well you can either lay taps and lure them onto them, or if your not gona take damage just trap with them around you, using barbed trap first, then use tripwire, that cripples, bleeds and then knocks down the enemies. then you can take some other traps for more conditions, though i ahve to say ti's a rather time consuming way to do things.... <font color="#4F94CD">~PheNaxKian </B> (<font color="Red">T /c) [[Image:Phenaxkian_sig_phoenix.jpg|19px]] 09:55, 30 May 2008 (EDT)

Delete?

Interesting Fact
with 16+1+3 Shadow Arts, an enchants last 20% longer weapon mod, and deadly paradox, there will be a 10 seconds of delay to keep it from rechargin, is there any way to get it to last forever without having another proffession?, just 10 seconds is needed, from making it last 10 seconds more, or having it recharge 10 seconds faster.--‎<font color="Darkgreen">W<tt>i</tt>n  <font color="Lightgreen">T<tt>o</tt>c<tt>k</tt>  Rules! 19:52, 15 August 2008 (EDT)

 * Some farming builds use Air of Superiority (and the Scythe build you submitted uses consumables). That 10 seconds can only really be avoided if you use Arcane Echo, Arcane Mimicry, Glyph of Swiftness, Quickening Zephyr and such. I assume you're referring to your Shadow Form Scythe build? I don't think there really are any ways to do it just through the Assassin profession skills and no consumables. =/ ــмıкε  нaшк  21:05, 15 August 2008 (EDT)

 * I'd like to see how you get 16+1+3 shadow arts O.o. And in the article, it says you need at least 12 pts allocated in Shadow Arts to perma. You can perma with 10+1+3. And air magic isn't crucial at all. And... well, this is from 15 seconds of looking at the guide. Someone want to fix this? --<span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: &quot;Matura MT Script Capitals&quot;;"><font color="Black">Gah <font color="Black">The  <font color="Black">Epic  20:37, 9 December 2008 (EST)
