Played some PvP with Jam last night, which was a chuckle.

Jam, I think we need to take more than just eles and monks though. I was thinking about how some of the better monks were able to resist and have concluded a necro with rend enchantments will help soften up targets.

[Jamski]

Hehe, I was thinking Smite Enchantment (monk fixation lol) but an E/N would work wonders for "peeling" the monks.

[Main_Brain]

I guess you could take a monk/necro out and try it ... stand in a well of blood and cast breeze on yourself

So true. +/- 10 Arrows seem to max it out.

Rend enchantments takes 7 though I think, which helps if they stack crap enchantments to protect the good one.

I'm working on a team build for GvG. It involves a warrior with fear me, an E/Me with backfire and diversion, an E/N with rend enchantments (both are air), 3 monks and 2 pure air eles.

I think it will help.

BTW:
Life (De)Regeneration is capped at +/-10 correct?

Final result is capped. For example, if you have 16 regen and 5 degen then you'll have 16-5=11 regen, and it will be capped at 10.

IMHO if you want to use Air Eles in GvG, then better use Ele/Mes with Drain Enchantment and Power Drain{elite}. In most cases, you don't need to drain all enchantments on a target, if it's heavily defended then you just switch target and next volley goes to another one. Also, Drain Enchantment and Power Drain give you mana to sustain rate of fire almost indefinitely if you use synchronized spikes instead of just pure DPS.
Fear Me! warrior doesn't combo well with Air Spike build from my experience, it's a shutdown build after all. Air Spike should kill slow shutdown builds before they will be able to completely shutdown Air Spike, so Fear Me! build doesn't really help, it's a different approach.
Fear Me!, Echo{Elite}, For the Great Justice!, Frenzy, Warrior's Cunning build with Zealous weapon, Gladiator armor and 13 in Tactics can drain a lot at the start, but it doesn't have a good damage. Build with a better damage doesn't drain a lot of mana.

What's the name of the Mes skill that let's you borrow an ally's elite skill for 30 seconds? I have an überbroken plan

[Main_Brain]

Arcane Mimicry?

[DrSpike]

Yes, though it has a 60 second cooldown.

[Jamski]

Let's just say there are some elite skills that were never intended to be combined

[DrSpike]

Elaborate.

And tell us your current E/Me build too.

Do you mean my monk-owning build? It was hilarious to have 3 noob monks backfire to death in one battle.

[SirOsis]

You can add Jinde Seraklon.
