This build is not favored by the
GuildWiki community.
The general consensus among users of GuildWiki is that this
build is not viable.
This build was voted unfavored for the following reasons:
- Build is no longer worked on.
- Fails to put Power Block into proper context
|
This is a Mesmer build centered around the use
of the elite skill, Power Block. It is
meant for PvE to face casters
and is particularily useful in Missions from Droknar's Forge onwards. It can also be
used for PvP if the team build
requires a strong anti-caster.
[edit] Attributes and Skills
- Use Arcane Conundrum to increase your chances of success with
Power Block. Do
not target Protection Monks! Their skills usually cast within 0.5
seconds even when hexed. Especially Curse Necromancers and Fire
Elementalists are very easy targets.
- Use Drain Enchantment on the call, especially
when the target is below 80% health.
- Use Shatter Enchantment as a finish-off for
targets below 30% of their health.
- Use Power
Drain and Shame for
Energy management and interrupts.
- Cry of Frustration is your allround
interrupt against groups of mobs and non-casters. Reserve for
skills like Healing Signet or Troll Unguent.
- Always be aware of your enemy. Only your Power Block can
interrupt targets with Mantra of Resolve.
[edit] Counters
[edit] Variants
- Use Diversion
or Energy Burn
instead of Cry of Frustration if your team build already includes
interrupts.
