Thanks for posting this. I didn't even think of it which is odd because I used to bring a bonder with my 55 necro or monk to help me take on larger groups of stuff you normally couldn't 55 easily. Thanks for sparking the memory. Also if youwant to put some point smiting you can cast SoJ on yourself before you run in. The knock down will give you sometime to cast your initial spells without getting interupted (SS frequently get interupted depending on what you are fighting) or spell breaker to give you some time to take out the mesmers.
Hmmm I wonder if you could run holy wrath and retribution to get started then drop the enchants when they start getting low and then use the SS to take them down all the way. I need to start playing around tith this inpreperation for the weekend.
Ooh, did someone say free smiter? :P Woot, good idea. I tried setting up hero as bonder (assumed they be able to handle not doing anything) but they wouldn't keep the enchants on. I shall try disabling them first and do it again!
i was going to say why not add holy wrath and retribution unless they flee, then realised its not 600hp and you cant do that anymore (only deals 5 dmg back =( )
anyway, sweet guide man (and nicely presented too)
Does this build work with a non-55 Build?? It's probably a dumb question but ive been wondering if a ranger could do it?
Not this specific build but he is mostly showing us how you can use heroes to maintain enchantments then get out of the way, allowing you to free up skill slots.
For example with a ranger if you are farming with barrage, u could have the hero maintain mending and live vicariously on you, then you go in and farm. This way you could have 16 healing prayers for your live vicariously and an extra skill.
/sigh.... this isnt a farming build guide as stated, its to show you that you can have a hero maintain enchantments, freeing up skill bar slots to take along a better range of skills. i just had my 55 necro build in there as an example like i said. thanks for reading all of it
you can use balthazar, succor, mending, and watchful spirit for a good amount of enchant help...giving you 6 health regen and 1 extra energy. that means you could possibly limit healing even more on yourself or be able to counter higher degen easily enough
