SynapseX Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 (edited) Broke my 15 medal record last night, the only two medals I didnt get were 3k defender points and 300k total healing. 27/2/12 Inb4 "shockfrozen water" and also I think its total BS that someone heals for nearly half a million and gets only 4 medals, that needs changing asap.

Skitlz Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 can you post a link of your exact spec, just curious of a few things i know most are probably pretty cookie cutter. Also how is your gear modd/enehanced? you using the tank pvp gear or stalker? and in what combination of mods etc? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neurotic Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 the pve gear, is that with tank stats, or no Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SynapseX Posted February 13, 2012 Author Share Posted February 13, 2012 the pve gear, is that with tank stats, or no dps stats (+15% crit to thrash bonus), I have 0 tanking stats on gear anywhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sabbathius Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 Curious build. Keep Harnessed Darkness but ditch Wither...hmm...I kinda like Wither, but those Thrash crits are probably monstrous. Question - do you really need Dark Ward? I mean are you even wearing a shield generator? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just tried one match with the spec, pretty nifty. I do miss the slow on Wither, actually had to use Force Slow from time to time, but definitely playable.

Astarica Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 I can get 12 medals on a regular basis and I don't use water (that'd be 3 more). I don't make an effort to get the 50K guard since it's rare for the game to be close when you can get that many medals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
French-toast Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 ive hit 14 medals a couple times with a similar build... what did you use to hit that 5k hit medal? its been elusive for me and im working with 580 expertise Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lysico Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 Grats.. i am level 20 and got 9 medals was all proud and stuff.. Then seen this Good job op! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
olounda Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 Just tried this build, in full champ gear, and it is full of win. My survivability shot way up, as well as id say my dps has gone up a bit, or maybe just my burst dps has, either way, this build is pretty awesome.

I have seen shocks crit for 4200-4300 though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FRISKI Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 (edited) What charge are you using? Ps: why not take a point out of dark embrace and get death field? Edited February 14, 2012 by FRISKI Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have seen shocks crit for 4200-4300 though. I've had a few 5k Assassinates as well, though naturally I've never ever received the 5k medal for those since players <30% HP usually have less health than that... But I've had a few insane Force Lightning crits with HDx3, my highest yet is 2222 though it was only 1 tick, the highest full duration one was 2023 or similar, that'd be some insane burst if it was applied at once :< Edited February 14, 2012 by Nohkron Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SynapseX Posted February 14, 2012 Author Share Posted February 14, 2012 (edited) looks like someone is altering their mods after todays surge nerf. I only have surge on my enhancement slots and there is nothing else you can substitute in besides accuracy, which is still bad. Find me an end+power+crit enhancement and we'll talk.

RamzaBehoulve Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 looks like someone is altering their mods after todays surge nerf. Unlikely, my Sentinel has a bunch of Surge just from Enhancement slots and there is nothing better available at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koolmea Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 Im using the same spec since like 1 month or so ...except that Im using Maul and no shield skills (since 3 ticks oh lightning is kinda hard to get and shield in pvp = 0). Its a really good spec indeed if combined with Champion Survivor gear modded with crit+surge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pwnyride Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 Are you able to fraps a warzone or two so that we can see the general play style that encompasses a build like this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XParoleX Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 (edited) Would it be better instead of putting 2 points in Dark Embrace and 1 point in Dark Ward to use those 3 points in Death Field and Fanaticism?

Sherbatsky Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 (edited) Would it be better instead of putting 2 points in Dark Embrace and 1 point in Dark Ward to use those 3 points in Death Field and Fanaticism? You cant take the point out of the darkness tree, if you do you wont be able to go up the tree it seems. PS, im totally gonna try this when I get home, but to be sure, you are doing this in all DPS gear right and Im guessing survivability would go up even more if you used a shield right?

Sovereighn Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 Well i am using this build since 1.1.2 and this was always the only viable build for me. - high suvilability - decent burst - crap load of damage - enough utility i get usaly 10-12 medals. if i am trying to get more i can get sometimes up to 15. my build is a little bit different. http://knotor.com/skills#Ag4bAA4qQUlRWmpzgYmaqrLK0tuJkZqrusvS but i have tested madness and deception but with none of them i can get the survilabitliy i need. also the damage output is not higher for me with madness and deception only the burst a little bit more with deception, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bovinity Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 Surprised to see so many builds skipping out on Wither, it seems like such an incredibly useful ability in group PvP. I would think you'd at least get Death Field if you're gonna skip Wither and go up Madness that far? Obviously you're doing well with the spec though, so it works...just thinking out loud. =D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
