Five pieces, five locations

Unlike most other RPG games, the effects of different pieces of armor do not simply add up to reduce damage. Each piece of armor protects a specific body location. When a particular body location is struck by damage, only the armor worn there is used to calculate the armor effect. Thus, wearing a super sturdy helm is not going to help you much when an attacker stabs you in the chest.

Each body location has a certain probability to be struck by damage. As crafting material requirements (from the same crafter) for armors of different body locations always have a fixed ratio, folklore has it that this ratio also correspond to the relative probabilities of each body location being struck by damage.

The five body locations and their "crafting material percentages" are:

* Head - 12.5% (1/8)
* Chest - 37.5% (3/8)
* Hands - 12.5% (1/8)
* Legs - 25% (2/8)
* Feet - 12.5% (1/8)

I've seen shouting form a Monk in AB named Yes Urasismin about a 6 Pack Monk so I let him join my party. I almost !@#$%^&* my pants when I saw him in action. This dude could cap every shrine but the Nukers. I stood there and watched as he had 12 peeps on him comprised of nukers, wars, Necros, and Sins. The tanks were dropping fast. LMAO i emoted a double take. This dude was hitting for 30-40 Health per swing and he said one swing landed for 100. He's not a 55 as the touchers could not bring him down. It looks like a monk can tank. This dude ripped through 12 people before he was brought down. What an amazing build. Definately elite in my book. If you see someone shouting a 6 pack monk build don't laugh at him. He knows his !@#$%^&*.

What the hell is this all about? Are you saying that there is a new uber build out there and you don't know what it is? What skills was he using? What armour was he wearing (if any) More info if you can get it. Otherwise it looks made up.

First..if you are Meatball2005 you already have premium. second..this build has the same skills as a solo warrior. The difference being that the warrior has nearly double the armour. I use the exact same skills on my hero Koss. This build is better off on a proper purpose built tank. Any enchantment removals (of which there are plenty) you'd be dead very quickly. You have no stances or the like to boost your armour. Sorry to sound negative but posting 4 times is also very annoying and got me in the wrong frame of mind. oh #edit# does this build ring any bells? http://gw.gamewikis.org/wiki/Build:W/Mo_Ghial_Farmer

i highly doubt that build would take on a touch ranger unless the ranger sucks because +6 health regen=12hps+37=49 health per sec touchers steal 65 so the still do 65-49=16dps and the monk u said does ~30-40dps and a toucher is healed 65 per sec so how does that work out

(!empty($user->lang['QUOTE'])) ? $user->lang['QUOTE'] : ucwords(strtolower(str_replace('_', ' ', 'QUOTE'))): 2 Levels of Armor Upgrades 590 Health (635 Enchanted) 6 Pips of Extra Healing 6 Health upgrades corrected. insignias that add to armor do not stack....each insignia only affects the piece of armor it is applied to. So at most you would have 75 armor (60+10 from insignia+5 from offhand) see this: http://gw.gamewikis.org/wiki/Armor (!empty($user->lang['QUOTE'])) ? $user->lang['QUOTE'] : ucwords(strtolower(str_replace('_', ' ', 'QUOTE'))): Five pieces, five locations Unlike most other RPG games, the effects of different pieces of armor do not simply add up to reduce damage.

A Ranger can easily overcome that regen with conditions. Applied interrupts like Choking gas or a good long daze will do you in easily. Combine that with an enchantment stripper...and a bit of damage up front from a tank and you're dead. If you won in pvp it's because you faced some people who don't know team work or don't know some vital things to bring to counter common builds that rely on enchantments. I know that and I don't play pvp...I only pve. I'm sure it's been thought of before...that's not a real stretch to imagine... it's not worth premium because 1) you said you were someone who already has a premium account 2) you posted it to other sites just after posting it here...thus making it easily found in the community...which means it's common knowledge. 3) it's not a real great build. and I'll say /Nay just to be sure because I despise people who use names like that (YourAssIsMine). You'll get no respect from me simply because you use a name like that. edit: looks somewhat similar to this build... http://gw.gamewikis.org/wiki/Build:Mo/W ... 27s_Avatar They tried to claim the same thing you're claiming and look what happened. True it's not the same build...that one has some rather glaring flaws...but your's does as well.
