Idea
DIR By: Etaf
Date: September 8, 2013, 12:26 am
---------------------------------------------------------
Inspiration: This part of the forum seems most relevant to my
idea which I want to propose and have an open discussion on. My
strong desire that brought about this idea was from a bitter
experience of mine where my main character is a necromancer and
I would often get dropped/kicked and even in 1 case was used to
clear trash mobs just to get kicked before boss for some other
guy (I learned of this cause my friend happened to be in the
same party and he told me). From then I've had created a warrior
just so that I can do runs.
Idea
My current idea is to have profession guides on this part of the
forums to help for Fractal runs that are created/contributed by
members who have experience in the profession.
This is to aid newer members both to learn from the experienced
runners and adapt it to make it better or just use it as is
rather than being lost and asking around waiting for an answer
from a reliable source. In addition others can read these guides
so to understand what another player brings to the party when
they choose a certain profession. I hope it will bring variety
towards parties created and make much more interesting runs and
heck open everyone's mind towards other builds!
Example of idea
I will use necromancer as an example. The famous or infamous
"Well of Power" which converts conditions on necromancer and
allies to boons and "Well of Darkness" which blinds on pulses.
When to use them and when some other skills are better during
what fractals I can't really say due to my own lack of
experience. However, on the cliff side fractal where all those
cultists throw vulnerabilities at you... 25 stacks of it after
awhile... yeah well turn that to protection and the well of
darkness to make up for the well of power down time. There we go
2 utilities used where some necromancers hoping to bring more
dps would have used "blood is power" and "epidemic" to spread
the conditions to kill the cultists is mass. Not saying that the
necromancer who brought that condition damage spread is wrong
but rather I want them to know that they can bring other things
from their skill bar that may potentially be better or life
saving even. After all no other class can easily convert
conditions to boons the way a necromancer can. Even throwing in
signet of the locust for mobility in combat or at what stages to
use spectral walk or some other skill that can be combat
changing and turn ugly situations for the better. I don't have
the experience with fractals to say myself, but I am sure others
do! :D
If people like my idea and agree towards it then heck help start
make them :P contribute whatever you know. After all whatever
you contribute someone else might never have known/thought of
till you mentioned it!
Thank you for reading :)

That's a very good idea, I was thinking about the same thing
just now.
One thing I'm wondering is if we should post things here per
profession, or have a guide for every fractal specifically in
their own board.
I'll be running FotM more often starting next week, so I'll at
least try to get some info out there!
Thanks for the suggestion!
