I think it looks fine, but I noticed some little things which can be perfected.
| QUOTE | Player 3: Ranger/Monk
- Burning Arrow {E}
- Distracting Shot
- Savage Shot
- Apply Poison
- Mending Touch
- Natural Stride
- Troll Unguent
- Resurrection Signet |
I don't like Burning arrow, because of it's 10 energy cost and low DPS. In my opninion Cripshot will suit best in this build.
| QUOTE | Player 5: Mesmer/Ritualist
- Energy Surge {E}
- Diversion
- Shame
- Power Drain
- Cry of Frustration
- Inspired Enchantment
- Mirror of Disenchantment
- Flesh of My Flesh |
I think you could best ditch Cry of Frustration for Power Leak. Leaking energy provides more pressure than damage. You can ditch Inspired Enchantment for Shatter enchantment. Power Drain will keep your energy healthy anyway. Shatter Enchantment is wonderful in a spike.
Also, you may want to swap your Death Pact Signet for a normal Resurrection Signet. It's not that it is bad, but I don't like a hard res on frontliner, and then definately not DPS.
Hope this helped you a little.

If you're going to run burning arrow, you cannot split like a cripshot, and should instead run a cruel spear paragon. More pressure at the stand, plus you put cry of frustration and mirror of disenchantment on it.
2 hard resses? Wut?
You may want to switch the hammer bar and change it to another axe. Because with the shaterstone ele, really the easiest way to get kills is through spikes. And Axe warriors spike better than hammers.
Not trying to turn you into rawr here, but with shaterstone in the build, you better have alot more than just that on the spike. You may eventually find that shaterstone gives it away too much, which is why I suggest the paragon, two axe warriors and the mesmer be in on the full spikes.
Anyway, guest me whenever you need a tactics caller/frontliner.

He's not posting it for the "wiki people" to steal it. He wants feedback on how to make it better. What better place to get feedback, than a forum?

Its alright Hippie, but take Rogue's advice - no point me repeating what he said.
Guest me sometime (you know my IGN).
And oh yeah, thread moved to GvG forum.

Personally I do like the build, think it would work really nicely.
Although I do agree with the others I think a crip shot is probably your best bet, I mean they're so much more versitle. Personally I like the hammer warrior as it is, knock down can add a lot of pressure to other monks, and you can allways use the warrior to KD one monk while the others spike down the other monk (if it was to have some DP)

I agree with what Rogue said, but I would definitely say keep one axe, one hammer warrior. Hammer just gives so much pressure with KDs and is helpful if you want to put it offspike as well.
And about what you said concerning SoD or RC:
It's fine as is with RC. IF you switch to SoD, I suggest switching the WoH to HB also... but the problem with this is that HB are much more easily shut down than WoH. But yeah, go with which you prefer... I still don't know which of the two monk combos I prefer (although I think I prefer playing SoD to RC, but not because of effectiveness - just preference).
Forgot to add, more than willing to guest monk (prot, typically hate heal) or flagger for you. Hate calling otherwise I'd offer myself up as frontline as well :P.

rogue, i do like cruel spears over the ranger spot, except i've got tinny in my guild who is amazing on a ranger which would lead me more to wanting to run a ranger in that spot
the shatterstone used to be a icy shackles for more snaring but when a few alliance mates looked at it and suggested running shatterstone to aid the spikes, i also like the idea of running 2 axe but at the same time i like the mage for backlining when need be
also i choose snare ele over b surge for several reasons
1 its more pressure and annoyance for warriors imo as blind is pretty easily removed
2 this is a balanced setup to what my guildees are best at running and slecks is much better snaring than on a b-surge
also, @ deathaxe i think CoF is better than pleak, its not the damage im concerning myself with its the AoE interrupt and the ability to catch things like troll unguent and res sigs
ill post revisements to the build after awhile
