The PvXwiki community finds this to be an excellent build. If you disagree with this rating, please discuss it on the build's talk page. This build has been designed for the following use: |
The Cyclone UW Solo warrior uses high powered AoE attack skill along with mesmer skills to reduce damage and drain energy to allow you to complete a smite run as fast as 9 minutes, being the fastest and most efficient smite run possible.
Attributes and Skills
<pvxbig> [build prof=warri/mesme axe=12+1+1 strength=9+1 illusion=9 inspiration=3][Cyclone Axe][Whirlwind Attack][Triple Chop][Physical Resistance][Bonetti's Defense@0][Ancestor's Visage][Sympathetic Visage][Enraging Charge][/build] </pvxbig>
Equipment
Armor :
- Full Knight's Insignia's.
- Superior Absorption Rune.
- Vitae Runes.
Weapons :
- A Zealous Axe of Shelter and Enchanting.
- A 'Strength Shield with +45hp/-2damage (stance) inscriptions.
Usage
The Chamber
- Use your IMS and take the quest Clear the Chamber and run back to a safe position.
- Pre-cast one of your visages and use Enraging Charge as an IMS to pull the Grasp's to the center shrine.
- Auto-attack and use your attack skills to build up adrenaline.
- Once charged, use Bonetti's Defense followed by one of your visages and Physical Resistance.
- Use your attack skills in this order:
Cyclone Axe<
Whirlwind Attack<
Triple Chop<
Whirlwind Attack. - Re-apply your visages and Physical Resistance whenever needed.
The Run
- Once you have completed the quest, run along the right side to the open gate, being sure to break aggro with the three or four nearby Aatxes.
- If there are enemies in the passageway, this is a (mostly) safe point to stop and wait. Be careful of the patrols nearby.
- As soon as the passageway is clear, run through it. Try to time your run so that you will not be seen by the Grasping Darkness patrol, as even with Enraging Charge you cannot outrun them and will be forced to fight. Use Enraging Charge just as you leave the passage, and head to the left.
- If you can, try to run all the way past both groups of Aatxes in one shot. If you can't, break aggro and wait in the big room (avoiding patrols) until Enraging Charge has recharged, then run past the last pair of Aatxes.
- Be careful, as you may have to wait till Enraging Charge recharges to break their aggro. If this happens, you will end up directly in the middle of the Smite Crawler group, and will be forced to fight.
The Smites
- Switch to your weapon of Enchanting.
- Use the same techniques used above on the Grasp's.
- If a Smite casts Shield of Judgment stop using your AoE for about 15 seconds and keep reapplying your visages.
