So... I was supposed to upload this back in May! It's been two months and I completely forgot about it! In short this team build allows YOU to be the primary DPS carry, while your team incapacitates the hell out of the enemy.
Hey there WP, I'd like to share a build that I put together while back since we are talking about conditions. There is a ranger elite called STRIKE AS ONE it is a shout that affects both you and your pet ( your next attack inflicts cripple and pets next attack inflicts bleeding so nothing major but hold up). It has 10 sec cooldown AND IT SHADOWSTEPS PET TO THE ENEMY! You pair it with BLAZING FINALE (whenever shout ends on ally it inflicts burning to adjacent foes) from your paragon. So every time you use elite and you or your pet attacks it causes burning to all foes adjacent to your pet and again to all foes adj. to you. So it's double burning and cripple and bleeding every 10 sec. if you keep blazing finale on both you and your pet. Bit micromanagement intensive I know. Then you take DODGE THIS and whenever you use it your next attack is unblockable and shout ends trigerring BLAZING FINALE again. Then you take GO FOR THE EYES on your paragon and whenever he casts it and you or your pet attacks BLAZING FINALE is trigerred again. Then as all those shouts are ending on you, you take echo BURNING REFRAIN ( Inflicts Burning condition if target ally hits a foe with more Health.) and its refreshing all the time. With other echoes you can get health or lose condition or block. Quite Then you take THEY'RE ON FIRE on your paragon (For 10 seconds, party members within earshot take 5...29...35% less damage from foes suffering from Burning.) so your team is more tanky and again it is a shout and when it ends ... you know the deal :D. And I want to stress this out that pet shadowsteps to enemy so you dont have to worry about it getting stuck or something. You can take Serpent's Quickness to cast Strike as one every 7 sec when above 50%. Maybe this could fit into this comp. Just food for thought. I would appreciate likes so the WP could see this.
~ 22:10 2 seconds of burning (from Glyph of Immolation), is that enough for an hero to use that for the 'Steam' spell to give blind condition? Steam takes 1 second to cast, so there's exactly 1 second left to react.
wow just caught up with the previous 2 vids and now there's more content? amazing. weve been going through gw1 with some friends in the past. should really get back in to it. Thanks for lighting the fire again, now ive got more procrastinating to do ;)
You've mentioned a few times over the years the idea of playing Assassin or Warrior with your team supporting you. I'm very curious about how you'd do it, as well as your thoughts about how it could handle the tougher content.
I remember playing around with this idea every now and then back in the day, but all the immunity to bleed, poison, and burning made it seem inferior to straight damage. I did forget that fevered dreams has daze now, so that should make it more worthwhile. Might be interesting to use a ranger on this as well
One build idea I was playing with couple months ago with the new elites, was 3/4 paragons in a party. One motivation with Finale of Restoration and Mending Refrain. Great heals with everyone throwing shouts everywhere. One command with the standard shouts, then I as the last para with Save yourselves and Heroic Refrain. You could have another para mix of leadership/command for the 4 but seems abit too much. But yea it worked great with heals, and dmg when you have a rt giving you Splinter Weapon. I only wish Paragon had a update to their spear skills to improve damage and maybe some AoE on couple skills.
I would be interested to see how this build fares against the various foes of the game. Guild wars conditions don't behave as they do in GW2... skeletons don't bleed, they can't get poisoned or diseased. I wonder how this would work against the elementals that are also immune to those triggers for fragility. don't get me wrong, playing it in HM is no joke in general so clearly it does well. I'd just wonder where it'd start breaking down
I was fairly interested in Reap impurities at the time, I can't remember what turned me off it in the end! Maybe it was just that I wanted to see the bombs of damage with my own hypochondrea
Nice teambuild. I was running something similar back in the days, but i mixed it with the Discord elite Necro skill. More overall team dps imho but the idea is the same : the key was still the fragility/feavered dreams mesmer.
I have been toying with the thought of going back to this game as I have never played it and my interest for gw2 ended a few months back is the a bundle for all of the pacs ? how do I get followers(npc) group that follows him
THIS IS THE BEST MMO EVER EXISTED, THERE IS NOTHING BETTER THAN THIS. AND DONT FORGET, IT WAS MADE AT THE BEGGNING OF 00S GW2 HAVE NO GW ON IT, THEY SHALL RENAME GW2 THE RESULT OF A TEAM OF EXPERTS WICH WORKED UNITED TO MAKE THE BEST MMO GAME NOW DAYS THE DEVS OF GAMES SPLIT FOR THE MONEY AND THEY ALL MAKE CRAP/BAD GAMES
Glad to see you back WP and with more GW1 content nonetheless! Didn't know if you were interested in using this for any future videos but my friends and I made a modded ReShade for GW1. Your GW2 ReShade videos were kinda inspiration - and my love for GW1 :) You can find more about it on your subreddit if you're interested: www.reddit.com/r/WoodenPotatoes/comments/gdk5lz/reshade_for_gw_original/

Love this build craft for such a nuanced, and strategy based, game that is GW. The content come back is most welcomed! :3
Holy crap its Kroof!!!!
That ending was perfect, with Norgu even laughing at you as you realize...

"In earshot": Am I a joke to you?
10/10 for being thematically appropriate
2020 be like...

Aura Slicer + Reap Impurities would be massive for the Dervish build
I was fairly interested in Reap impurities at the time, I can't remember what turned me off it in the end! Maybe it was just that I wanted to see the bombs of damage with my own hypochondrea
Great video! Though I found myself wanting to constantly move the Skills Panel out of the way xD
Have you tried 'Virulence or Discord' e-skill to be part of your conditions build? If not, why?
WP you rock! Thanks for the vids on gw1 man
Nice teambuild. I was running something similar back in the days, but i mixed it with the Discord elite Necro skill. More overall team dps imho but the idea is the same : the key was still the fragility/feavered dreams mesmer.
hey WP. What kind of softwere do you use with gw1? I see you have like percentege of damage of your heroes in the left-up corner.
I have been toying with the thought of going back to this game as I have never played it and my interest for gw2 ended a few months back is the a bundle for all of the pacs ? how do I get followers(npc) group that follows him
Really cool thank you
THIS IS THE BEST MMO EVER EXISTED, THERE IS NOTHING BETTER THAN THIS.

GW2 HAVE NO GW ON IT, THEY SHALL RENAME GW2
THE RESULT OF A TEAM OF EXPERTS WICH WORKED UNITED TO MAKE THE BEST MMO GAME
NOW DAYS THE DEVS OF GAMES SPLIT FOR THE MONEY AND THEY ALL MAKE CRAP/BAD GAMES

Imagne if GW2 had this type of depth ... travesty of a game compared to the original imo
First
