Hey All,
I have not been on for a while and it is mostly because my 55 monk doesn't work- I need a way to farm and its all I have right now. I was wondering though, if someone knew if they changed the skills as far as how long they last? I had mine on in the north shiver peaks and the skills kept turning off- like a regular skill would. Is this normal or a result of something I was fighting or something else entirely? Dazed and Confused :p
 
Northern Shiverpeaks? Some Stone Summit thingies up there have Desecrate Enchantment and stuff... and shatter enchanment I think...
 
I don't think they changed the skills, but rather how mobs react to area of affect damage.

Update Oct 25 said:
Improved Monster AI
  • Monsters no longer run from AoE damage when they are very healthy, or when they think they’re very close to killing their opponent.
  • Melee monsters are more intelligent about keeping themselves spread out, so that they don’t put themselves into a position where they’re highly susceptible to AoE attacks.

EDIT: I could be way off on this.
 
My IW 55 mes still works just fine. Just keep clear of enchant strippers.

I just made a mesmer so i could try out the 55 mes, I have capped IW and have been experimenting with different builds. What skills do you use, and where are some good places that you use this?
 
well... as for the Build... I don't know.

I could find out... but I'm too lazy. besides, my mesmer has to get IW first...
 
Skills for 55 IW Mesmer

Protective Spirit:
Illusionary Weaponry[E]
Mending
Balthazar's Spirit
Retribution
Sympathetic visage
Healing breeze
Zealot's Fire

Illusion: 16
Fast Cast: 6
Healing: 9
Protection: 9
Smiting: 1

Gear:
Katana of enchanting, energy+5
-50hp Grim cesta

Basically I use it in places where there are alot of warriors. Avoid anywhere there are necros with desecrate enchantments or mesmers with shatter enchantments.
 
Illusionary Weaponry still works because it doesn't do AoE damage, it just takes down one mob at a time.

Here's the 55 mesmer build I use on Hydra's outside Augury Rock. If you dont want to get a second set of armor with all sup runes on it, try this Me/A IW build.
 
My 55HP Build

My 55HP Monk build is workin pretty darn sweet. He's called a Spiteful Smiter. He uses Spiteful Spirit as his main damage spells and hits em with zealots fire as well. Working pretty awesome, but I do still need to get myself a Totem Axe. The Axe will help my Mo/R Droks runner too, but I've got more work for him before He'll be ready!

For those of yall who understand the templates, here's my 55HP Monk:
ADVxhbmDfG0i6BSBmH9JPR+Q

And here's my runner: Currently:
AjMhbgMmDkHxjTcL6y/BQA

Course equipement is important as well, and as I'm waiting for GW to update, I can't check out what they're running equipment wise.
