User:Curse You/sandbox

Yay sand! I decided to move my sandbox to PvX, since it's much easier to transfer builds from in game.

''Note: Most of these builds are in no way intended to be good. Many of them are outdated.''

Anti-MM / Minion Thief
[build prof=necro/monk deathm=12+1+3 soulre=9+1 healin=9][grenths balance][veratas aura][veratas gaze][malign intervention][taste of death][veratas sacrifice][blood of the master][heal area][/build]

This is the exact build I used to counter MMs in Alliance battles. This was the first instance that anyone had figured out to use the skills Verata's Aura and Verata's Gaze to counter a MM in Alliance battles (to my knowledge). As such, this would make me the father of all "Anti-MMs" found in Alliance battles today.

This build has since been retired, due mainly to the decline in MMs in Alliance battles. As well, it has no proper attack power, and so is useless without an enemy MM.

Knockdown Axe Warrior
[build prof=warri/assas tactic=12+1 axemas=10+1+2 streng=8+2 deadly=2][dismember][iron palm][lacerating chop][disrupting chop][balanced stance][auspicious parry][healing signet][resurrection signet][/build]

The rune application really is just how I usually have it on my warrior. The main idea is that this is a knockdown Axe Warrior that is able to knockdown on cue and cause bleeding, without getting exhaustion like a shock/gale warrior. It would probably work well with a condition ranger of any kind.

Doppel's Bane – Warrior
[build prof=warri/any streng=12+ axemas=11+][frenzy][shield bash][sprint][penetrating blow][executioners strike][optional][optional][optional][/build]

Designed to kill a warrior's Doppelganger in about 15 seconds (in Normal Mode). Simply use Sprint to run to the Doppel, Shield Bash when you start fighting, and any attacks when they charge. Do not use Frenzy, it will make you take too much damage, and is only on your skill bar for your doppel to use.

Repeating Strike Spam Assassin
[build prof=A/? cri=12+1+1 dag=10+1 dead=8+2][Golden Phoenix Strike][Repeating Strike][Optional][Optional][Asuran Scan][Way of the Empty Palm][Critical Eye][Critical Agility][/build]  slots:
 * for a decent killing attack.
 * and for rather effective spike that chains back into Repeating Strike.
 * for a high damage attack with AoE.
 * for a decent heal and damage.

The main idea is to deal out reasonable damage for no cost with no cost unavoidable attacks. The idea is to spam Repeating Strike until the target it near dead then quickly finish them off with the other attacks.

Equipment:
 * Barbed Daggers of Enchanting, with +15% while enchanted.

Stone Tank
[build prof=eleme/mesme earthm=12+1+3 energy=5+1 illusi=9 inspir=8][shockwave][sliver armor][sympathetic visage][ancestors visage][stoneflesh aura][stone striker][aura of restoration][mantra of earth][/build]

Can tank any mob, as long as they don't have an enchantment removal skill. Works well for killing groups that would otherwise intrupt you.

Equipment:
 * Geomancer's Armor
 * Galigord's Stone Staff, or its equal

Firey
[build prof=R/E exp=9+1+2 wil=11+1 mar=8+1 fir=8][Incendiary Arrows][Kindle Arrows][Triple Shot (Luxon)][Conjure Flame][Distracting Shot][Whirling Defense][Troll Unguent][Sunspear Rebirth Signet][/build]

A build I made up. The main reason was simply to give Triple Shot a use.

Signet Randomness
[build prof=Me/any fas=12+1+2 ins=12+1][Keystone Signet][Signet of Clumsiness][Unnatural Signet][Signet of Humility][Signet of Weariness][Signet of Disenchantment][Symbolic Celerity][Mantra of Signets][/build]

A build I came up with simply for the reason of using mostly signets. Why signets? Because no one ever brings a counter to them in PvP.

Malicious Decapitation
[build prof=A/W axe=10 tac=10 cri=11+1+2][Decapitate][Malicious Strike][Critical Chop][Optional][Asuran Scan][Critical Eye][Critical Agility][Way of the Master][/build]  slot:
 * to take advantage of Tactics for additional critical hits.
 * for occasional faster adrenaline gain.
 * for decent additional defence.

Designed to spam Decapitate without having problems from the loss of all energy, by taking advantage of assassins' Critical Strikes attribute. Points in Tactics are to allow use of a shield.

Prepared Shot variant
[build prof=P/R name="Shouting Shooter" mar=12 comma=8+1 lea=10+1+1][Prepared Shot][Read the Wind][Keen Arrow]["Go for the Eyes!"][Screaming Shot][Anthem of Flame][Aggressive Refrain][Resurrection Signet][/build]

Focused Anger variant
[build prof=P/R name="Shouting Shooter2" mar=12 comma=8+1 lea=10+1+1 wilder=2][Screaming Shot][Keen Arrow]["Go for the Eyes!"][Anthem of Flame][Serpent's Quickness][Focused Anger][Aggressive Refrain][Resurrection Signet][/build]

A surprisingly powerful build. It is simply based around using a bow on a paragon.

Embrace the Lightning
[build prof=E/any name="Embrace the Lightning" air=12+1+3 wat=9+1 ene=9+1][Chilling Winds][Glyph of Swiftness][Ride the Lightning][Winter's Embrace][Lightning Touch][Lightning Javelin][Air Attunement][Resurrection Signet][/build]

I'm not really sure how well this could work, it just seemed interesting. Your basic 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, repeat casting pattern.

FA Order of Apostasy
[build prof=N/D curse=12+1+3 soul=10+3 earthp=8][order of apostasy][rigor mortis][barbs][parasitic bond][gaze of contempt][masochism][mystic regeneration][signet of lost souls][/build]

Result of random ideas. I eventually realized that FA is just not the place for Order of Apostasy. I only kept this because the idea was interesting, maybe I'll eventually get it to work.

Dark Aura Duo
[build prof=N/D blood=12+1+3 soul=10+3 earthp=8][Touch of Agony][Wallow's Bite][Signet of Agony][Foul Feast][Contagion][Armor of Sanctity][Mystic Regeneration][Resurrection Signet][/build]

[build prof=N/D death=12+1+3 soul=10+3 earthp=8][Dark Aura][Putrid Bile][Virulence][Signet of Pious Light][Armor of Sanctity][Vital Boon][Mystic Regeneration][Resurrection Signet][/build]

Yet another random idea of mine, based around Dark Aura. Inspired by my own Team - EoE Death Cult. Most difficult part is finding elites that work with the concept.

Spell Blocker
[build prof=Mo/E divine=12+1+3 prot=12+1 air=3][Spell Breaker][Glyph of Swiftness][Aegis (PvP)][Protective Spirit][Shielding Hands][Dismiss Condition][Glyph of Lesser Energy][Blessed Aura][/build]

A build intended for the Kurzick side of Fort Aspenwood. The idea is to maintain Spell Breaker on Gunther for as long as possible, while using Aegis to fill the 5 second gap. Unsure how well this would work.

To achieve total spell protection, use the +1 Divine Favor focus when using Blessed Aura until you get 38% instead of 37%. This will give you 1 more second of Spell Breaker.

Equipment:
 * Spear of Enchanting
 * 20/20 Divine Favor Focus
 * +1 Divine Favor Focus

Chilling Embrace
[build prof=E/Any air=11+1+2 water=12+2 energy=6+1][Chilling Winds][Winter's Embrace][Lightning Bolt][Freezing Gust][Glowing Ice][Glyph of Elemental Power][Aura of Restoration][Elemental Attunement][/build]

My attempt at making a build using the new version of Winter's Embrace. It uses Chilling Winds to make Winter's Embrace last longer than its recharge, allowing for permanent slow and punishing movement. The rest of the build either also punishes movement or takes advantage of the "permanent" hex.
