Current Balanced
Runs a fast caster snarer, change mebe? Frosty No U! 14:47, 15 July 2008 (EDT)

mebbe swap current mesmer build for ineptitude? seen a lot of the top guilds running it instead of your current one
- Ineptitude mesmers are for shitters who suck at using guardian--GoldenStar 20:10, 11 August 2008 (EDT)
Missing elementalist
The Elementalist build and build code is missing in the lower part of the build. --Deathwearer 15:21, 25 July 2008 (EDT)
- Someone changed it to 'Change to Fc Snare' so i have for the fact a build there is better than text saying change, not sure if fc snare is balanced though.Funking Hostile 15:58, 29 July 2008 (EDT)
Waste not Want <> P-Drain
Seen most ppl run Waste since they dont need to swap targets etc, not sure thou whats best - Pdrain = 16enj 20sec and u must interrupt while Waste is about 9enj each 15sec whit just hitting a warrior who is snared..Massive 06:11, 14 September 2008 (EDT)
- Hitting pdrain is hard, makes you camp monks and position bad. It's just not beneficial as me/e. Take want not waste not. —ǘŋƐxɩsƫ 06:04, 26 September 2008 (EDT)
- Imo the hottest combination is that ether phantom drain delusions beauty. not the best emanagement but an amazinggg offesne effect.--Dark0805(Rant/Contributions) 18:42, 28 September 2008 (EDT)
Willing to buy a screen shot of somebody actually running power drain on the fast cast mesmer bar. I've honestly never seen it, but apparently somebody thinks that's the standard. Pluto 19:37, 6 October 2008 (EDT) edit: pref. somebody that actually counts too, not just a screenshot of yourself running it.
- You just need to know that it is an energy management skill that can't be interrupted or stripped. Which is pretty strong in my - no wait - everyone's opinion Jonas 20:40, 29 October 2008 (EDT)
monks attributes
hex breaker says 25 and 30 secounds with only 2 and 3 dom magic. Unless there has a been a recent change in the last week your duration is messed up. 3 dom is needed to keep hex breaker at 15. other than that this build is fine. If i were running id drop recup for life, but preference is preference.
- Check AN, its a known bug --Frosty 20:36, 29 October 2008 (EDT)
Aegis or Hex Breaker
Leaving it optionall...Massive 17:16, 22 November 2008 (EST)

typo
in the flagger's build's name was written "caretaker's charge", but at the top of the page and the elite was actually "hidden caltrops", i fixed that :D

Yeah my ass Lingering Curse comes under:
A GvG team capable of adapting to many situations and outplaying gimmicky opponents through player skill and good tactics.

Ling curs-way actually sorta isn't that balanced, it's just blowup degen(according that your ranger spams hunter's+savage well). —ǘŋƐxɩsƫ 07:48, 31 December 2008 (EST)
- The definition of balanced would be an adaptable build that can perform well in pretty much any situation, changing the water mes to a necro doesn't change that, it just gives you more pressure at the cost of some defense. Tab 07:49, 31 December 2008 (EST)

- Corrupt is pretty amazing. --Crowels[슴Mc슴]Mootles 10:11, 28 June 2009 (UTC)
- Also Life, the fact that bleeding is a condition means it will probably just get RCed off for redbar. CE is amazing because it can either cover an important hex, be the only hex on somebody and be a wasted remove, or deal a fair bit of degen (and with poison it will be maxed out) --Crowels[슴Mc슴]Mootles 10:15, 28 June 2009 (UTC)

Water Ele Taken Out?
Can someone explain this change? The water from before could still aid spikes but help snare and hex up frontline. Is going pure damage going to help more?--Xamoro 19:28, 22 July 2009 (UTC)
Crybuild?
This build isnt balanced any more,its Crybuild. Balanced should be able to win vs. anything but this build isnt(dual para).

@Raping the runner attributes. Is there really nothing we can do to save the poor... guy? ---Chaos- 17:26, September 19, 2009 (UTC)

- distortion, dwayna's touch, and immolate all got nerfed, and but splits are still fairly common. not all teams run draw, its just a better stand skill, which is what most teams run (dual ranger or dual paragon). Gringo 01:50, November 17, 2009 (UTC)

Patient Spirit nerf
I think it killed this build. I just watched #23 almsot get stomped by a triple Ele team, the #23 of which was using the typical 2 monk backline and a Mesmer with WoH. Mayhaps it's too early, but I'm so very glad the meta is finally shifting. 141.165.171.149 06:27, January 20, 2010 (UTC)
- wat --Frosty 10:31, January 20, 2010 (UTC)
- I've seen this build, almost invariably, played by every Guild under 100 rank and it's gotten boring. Now with Patient Spirit's healing reduced, it's not the same skill it used to be and this entire team build's structure suffers for it. The example I mentioned had to compensate so much for it, that it was hardly recognizable. #23 had taken a hench into a ranked GvG match, if you need any other proof of it. I'd be glad if this finally died. 141.165.171.118 19:17, January 20, 2010 (UTC)

Updated 1/31/10
--TahiriVeila 20:59, January 31, 2010 (UTC)
- Dual Axe and LoD? Definetly should mention at least having a Me/E instead of the LoD or a MoI Ele. --Frosty 08:22, February 5, 2010 (UTC)
- I think that some sort of other defensive midline instead of the LoD should at least be mentioned (FC Snare,Bsurge Water hybrid,MoI), as I've seen some guilds running Bsurge Snare and other builds and I've got to say it works quite well and not necceserly worse then LoD.Dino Dave 16:17, February 13, 2010 (UTC)
Update
Warriors definately need a large update, the first one anyway, maybe the second one too. what do you think of the axe build with Soldier's Stance? Dino Dave 12:02, February 26, 2010 (UTC)
