Revenge of the Mantras
You’ll have to explain to me how a mantra build is great as I’ve only seen one mantra casted at the beginning of the video. The rest of the time I see stuff that can easily be emulated just by wearing zerker gear. Given the fact that you were rarely attacked directly and almost always had several people with you, I fail to see how your build influenced the outcome of these fights. The only thing I can properly contribute to you are some well-placed pulls and well-timed combos. The rest were greatsword auto-attacks.
And you might want to use a less offensive song. Seriously. While the beat was decent, the lyrics felt childish.
Why the bar at the bottom?
reminded me of listening to ’It’s Friday’ for the first time
I just added the bar at the bottom for artistic effect, this is my first vid ever so I was kinda playing around and may have gotten carried away lol (I’ll be sure to keep it out of future vids, or just put it over the chat log.
@Crossplay: Dude calm down, for one; Mantras only show animations when they are being charged, aside from that they are insta-cast and don’t show anything except the outcome (EG: Mantra of Pain- you just see a guy get ticked for xxxx dmg). the benefit is that they can be cast instantly at anytime. I’m not arguing that you couldn’t emulate it with Zerker gear because every class has a glass cannon version, I was merely sharing mine. Yeah I suppose you’re right these clips do show me with more backup than necessary, i’ll keep that in mind and try to get some solo-roaming in since it seems that’s what people are interested in seeing.
The lyrics were written for a guild on Blackgate (Imperial Coalition – ICoa) and were more intended to add an extra effect to having a guild video made with a guild song. Wasn’t trying to be offensive to everyone, try to think of it more as a parody on rap battle-esque style songs. Suppose i’ll stick to instrumentals from here on out hahah
Honestly, this was rather underwhelming. The bar on the bottom was unnecessary and obtrusive. The music was horrific. The mantras were not even charged half of the time (as you could see through the bar). The gameplay consisted of large amounts of greatsword autoattacking interspersed with a couple random illusionary waves that didn’t really seem to serve a purpose.
You’re running the full glass cannon (I noticed 15k hp) 4 mantra greatsword nuker build that gets knocked over if something so much as sneezes at it. Sure, you’ll do decent autoattack damage….but I don’t really see the point of the build.
Nice video please have one of you 1v1ing a BM roamer ranger atleast R25+
If WvW is your method one with a “champion hunter” or a “Avenger” title please and thank you.
For science of corse.

you have no pressure when fighting in this video at all. Anyone can run with a zerg and press buttons, and watch people die. Even if all the damage came from you, he is outnumbered and not even focused on you. This is game is all about pressure, and if you arent under any pressure, you will always win.
