Your vote on FA Stone Sheath Support
If you could, please fix your vote. The build is based around both sides, as are the majority of FA builds. I believe the only ones that are for single side use only have it noted in one way or another (title, name, usage, etc.) Just something to take into consideration.

 * A person, who doesn't think return is good, trying to see logic. You trust too much in other people Vince. --Silven Shadow 13:14, 22 January 2012 (UTC)
 * I actually haven't had the time to fix this. I've been busy with an APCS test, an APCS lab, Pre Calc test, aaaand lots of reading. :< Anywho, this is much more than a 2/3 rating. Especially seeing that your whole reasoning is based off of the kurzick side. If asking for proper positioning on the kurzick side is so much to ask, the majority of the builds in the FA category wouldn't be here. It seems you also seemed to be biased towards shockwave, which is decent enough but that would become much similar (and will make the build less focused) to the Stoned Spammer build. While some edits need to change, I believe you should really review the conceptual aspect of FA and how builds there work.

 * Also, I've been a major fucking fan of the stuff you wrote about on the old wiki. Vincent Evan [Air Henchman]  [[Image:vincels.jpg|19px]] 16:51, 22 January 2012 (UTC)
 * Haha I totally forgot about those old posts. For some reason, I couldn't remember my password and couldn't get my account back. But about the build, I see this as more viable options:

Build:E/any PvP Stoning. It even covers a lot of things you're talking about. All it really needs is the ward. As for reasoning, being able to spam the EH -> S -> Ash or EH -> GlowS -> S combo is just so powerful that not having it or trying to use Stone Sheath to do it is hurting your build. That an of course, turtles are assholes. Granted, the Stone Sheath works a bit better on the luxon side, but not by a terrible amount in comparison to other options.--TheGatesAssassin 20:59, 22 January 2012 (UTC)
 * You're still able to pull off weakness when it still matters. You can reap the benefits as such with proper positioning. I've used this enough to know when I can and can't cast it. It's limited by that, but your rating makes it so this build is "trashed" rather than good, which is breaking the vetting process. Besides, ebon hawk is subjectively worse. As a projectile (which would be followed by another projectile, being more obvious) it's slow and can be kited easily. As for Stone Sheath, you can simply cast it on yourself or by anyone that's getting trained. These are two separate skills which different mechanics and shouldn't compared together. At the very least, its worth a 4-4 rating. Vincent Evan [Air Henchman]  [[Image:vincels.jpg|19px]] 03:33, 23 January 2012 (UTC)
 * Still waiting for a response. Vincent Evan [Air Henchman]  [[Image:vincels.jpg|19px]] 19:23, 25 January 2012 (UTC)
 * Ebon Hawk is anything but slow. The only downside is you can't hit through walls. Dodging Ebon Hawk and Stone requires not only good situational awareness, but timing and not casting skills. The problem is that the ability to put weakness on things right now is dependent on something out of your hands (Enemy and ally proximity) or something arguably dangerous (walking into range). Of course, shockwave does the exact same thing, but it adds in a lovely blind effect and that bar has Ebon Hawk, allowing you to choose when you do this. In the end, it's the same result as my GG Endless Spike build, it's just a variant of an already existing build here on the wiki, but missing some of the key elements. Ebon Hawk is a staple skill for earth eles, as is stoning. --TheGatesAssassin 00:33, 26 January 2012 (UTC)
 * Gates does have a point with the variant, Stoned Spammer is tagged for FA. You have three optional slots for Stone Sheath, WaF, and utility; where you replace Ash Blast with Obby Flame (which I totally agree on in FA). That much should satisfy you vincent. My own testing with Stone Sheath wasn't too productive because of the damn turtles and it doesn't helped your suicidal teammates at all.-- Relyk 00:48, 26 January 2012 (UTC)
