<pvxbig> [build prof=N/Mo death=12+1+1 soul=8+1 prot=10][Discord@16][Putrid Bile@16][Animate Bone Minions@16][Death Nova@16][Protective Spirit][Aegis][Shield of Absorption][Masochism][/build] </pvxbig>

Usage
- Bind Discord to your keyboard so you can force your Heroes to spike.
- Place a condition and hex on a target and wand/call it so that the heroes will spike it.
- Keep conditions and hexes on the targets for fast kills.
- Cover with Enduring Toxin.
Counters
- Extremely heavy Hex Removal.
- Heavy Condition Removal (Restore Conditions or Extinguish for example).
- Pairs of Dolyak Riders and similar monks
- Vow of Silence (e.g. Whirling Wisps)
Notes
- Ask other people in your party (if any) to take backup Hexes/Conditions.
- When soloing, take a full set of offensive Hench to compensate for lack of DPS. This setup has enough prot and redbar not to need another healer most of the time.
- Choose Hench that can apply Hexes/Conditions (like Necro/Mesmer/Ele) for backup.
- The heroes will do the job, as long as you keep calling.
- Works well with more Discord Necros.
- Try not to cast Assassin Support if you do not have enough energy to do so, you will not recover it fully from Assassin's Promise on some professions.
- This build is more effectively used by a caster, due to the fact that not all professions' builds work well with Assassin's Promise as their elite skill.
