Sm's op! how to kill SM!!

MR work's fine for me....

 

For me , the sm is one easiest 2 kill ><

 

True true ... it depend's on your build and Combo.... :wink:

 

well guys.. lets not forget Sm is bug.. 1 of our buffs dont work 200 MA/MB/Supression for 2mins... woulden't like to use that on u glads . it only has a 12 second cooldown <3. + Our water spirit buff gives a 200+ MA buff for 30 seconds sack that on the 200ma/mb buff = 400+ Ma and sm is Ma build so ur looking at 2220 ma without buffs but if u use those 2 buffs with shorts cd then your looking at 2600 Ma. with the spirit wall buff + the 200ma/mb... or 2400 ma with just the 200MA/MB buff...

so mr is pretty useless against strong sms.. But mr will help if your fighting a noob sm.. who doesent use buffs or lacks ma.!

 

yeah,,better get them fast before they fear bomb u,,still its possible to kill them even when u got feared and debuffs by them..
click GRS + 2nd wind knock them out! booomm!! paper,,

 

SM's are afraid to the Gladiators, they are afraid to the gladiators.
yea yea and dont need for an MR set, just Crit/Attack will do.

 

And yes im sm but ill agree. Glad can kill sm quiet fast... like 5 seconds... i dont really fear. only if it's 1 vs 2+ i dont fear glads, i just pretty much silence them so they cant use skills.. really no need for fear unless u lack MB.

 

haven't seen a PRO SM vs. PRO Glad..
any video on it?im to lazy to search on youtube,, lol!

 

ask a sin to signet silence him to death.. then, you're free to pass and kill other classes..

I took this one like last month, the SM is kinda weird when I ankle snared him he just glide on a uphill lol. Extend is must for glad when dealing sorcs and sm, but a glad with WOC2 would take them out nice and easy, too bad I don't have one.

 

lol at every1 saying "use silence and kill him", you cant rely on a pottable 10% RNG stone. instafear and go cry in a corner.Fear works even when resisted and they have at least 5 things to cover body root with, its a counterclass ffs.Also he was probly asking how to kill him alone and not order a personal sin/sorc/ranger slave to use his pottable silence on the poor fearmaster.

Mres seems most effective yet even with 2.1k they have only 10% resist

 

well no matter what we say/or advise him, if he ain't skilled enough to adjust/learn from his mistakes. from what and what not's to do. then it's actually quite pointless.

 

c pointless

 

practice pvp with a SM friend..as wat they say.."practice makes perfect".
"but nobodies perfect?why practice">?lol!

 

.

 

This makes me sad, Grrr......PRNG, brother. You know this.


All that is needed to beat a SM is pressure. Use ranged attacks every time they are off cooldown and keep your bow auto attacking until you get close enough to melee. Allocate your Strengthen Wings and Charge accordingly, even stacking them if you need to. Reuse your running scroll when it's rended from you, and try your best to use your Greater Healing pots only on Body Root. If a fear is used, you can glide the moment before impact and resist it. All that is needed to defeat a SM as a Gladiator is a two or three second window. Between Ankle Snare, Tendon Slice, Strengthen Wings, Charge, Greater Healing pots, running scrolls, possible bow stuns, possible ranged knockdowns, and possible silence, it's very possible to make that happen.

 

bugged when u try to ankle snare a kitting character..root etc..
it happend to me also many times,, XD

 

In that video
1. The SM was silenced the entire time.
2. You locked down the SM.
3. You Crashing Blowed him without it either being a finishing blow, skill CD, aether hold ending or a KD in place.

In all seriousness as a glad, SMs are one of the biggest pains in the ass. SweetNoms made an excellent point about keeping damage on them, using a bow will help you move worlds past the SM. They are one of the few classes that has no skills to get out of a root, if you can get an ankle snare on them, they are pretty much stuck there. In a perfect one on one situation, lead with the cleaves and bow, as soon as they start to slow you use your Strengthen wings before their sigil of silence hits. As soon as they take your running scroll put that sucker back on and you should still be relatively fast. Charge always helps to keep that speed up, but make sure they can't just simply debuff it off of you. If you are in a highly mob populated zone, tab target bow one if you think the fight is going to last a while. That mob will break the root that most SMs will take advantage of you with. Their damage stems from DoTs, which do not infact break root. If you have used your GHP and Strengthen Wings, you are just stuck sitting there for 20 seconds with 2k damage being taken from you every 3 seconds (12k damage before out of root). If you are charging after the SM and they use instant fear, you should be in luck because your charge will allow you to outdistance the SM who is already rooted for another 2-3 seconds, and gets their major skill out of the way. After that it's a simple process of getting to them and keeping them with you. If they try a last second fear shriek when you charge in, don't be stupid and just either glide away (cannot be feared in glide) or stay out of their 25m radius. If they just use a simple fear, just use another cleave set combined with your bow (anything to break down their shield before you get to them) and crushing blow as soon as you get to them. Depending on how fancy you want to be, you can either continue with the DPS to kill them, I'd suggest using an earthquake wave followed by a severe weakening blow and a tendon slice, or you can immedietly get back into glide for when they try to remove shock fear you.

^ Perfect SM situation, but these are just a couple strategies you can use when approaching them. The real thing to keep in mind when fighting them is choosing your distances and utilizing your roots. It's like those god of war bosses, know when to run in and hit them and know when to jump around to try to get away from their heavy hitting skills.

 

Try to keep them stumbled or silenced. Disable them first.

 

haha gm pls fix sm's buff, they will make a hell hole in gelk, stay behind the front line and debuff, fear, cursed cloud and run, i think the best way to kill a sm is "5vs1", just stay away from them u know =))
