Before you lies a seemingly endless forest, and far in the distance of this sea of green lies a glorious golden city. Few have proven worthy enough to brave the great expanse leading up to this place, and fewer still will prove worthy enough to pass through the golden gates of the city and become a legend.
Welcome to the endless forest that is my domain. Welcome to the Mythic rank. For many builders this rank will be the final resting place for their builds, for few builds have what it takes to reach the Legendary rank. But take solace builders, for few builds prove worthy enough to even make it this far, lost forever in the lower ranks. Know that the builds here in this rank are still among the best the Vault has to offer.
This discussion is your space to discuss the builds that currently occupy the Mythic as well as the Event Mythic rank. Everything from builds that you think need work, to builds you feel have the potential to reach the next rank are fair game for discussion.
Each week or so I'll be featuring a select few mythic builds on the front page of this discussion. Occasionally they will be builds that I feel have that legendary potential, but more often than not they'll simply be builds that catch my attention - whatever the faceless stalker of the forests decides to drag in that week.
For those of you who wish to take your build to the next level I will lend my expertise and discuss with you what you can improve to hopefully make it. Just know, once again, not every build is destined to reach legendary. The greatest mistake you can make as a character builder here is assuming legendary is the only rank worth reaching. Each rank past the Bloodworks is an accomplishment, and it takes considerable talent, as well as a reputation for quality work, to get a build to Mythic.
Tips & Assistance
There's little in the way of links I can give you to improve your presentation or help you sell your work to the public better. If you own mythic builds, chances are you're very familiar with the resources available, and chances are even higher you're already mentoring someone out there on how to improve their builds. Here's some of the tips that might help propel your work to Legendary.
Fine tune your work. No build is ever perfect. There's always something you can tweak, artwork you can swap out, or passages you can reword to make a build better. Never be afraid to look over your work and change things up to better convey what your build is all about. But remember though...
The first impression is crucial. Think of your build as the opening night of a movie. You want your build to be the best it can be from the beginning so don't post it until you feel its absolutely ready. The amount of likes you gain in the first week is a good indicator of what rank your build will ultimately fall under. 50+ likes in the first week is outstanding and is a good sign that your build will one day make it to mythic or legendary.
Trim the fat. Readers have a limited attention span, and with over 900 builds to compete with for attention your build has to get to the point rather quickly. Look over your work and try to reword your passage to be more concise without losing its attention grabbing quality. A sentence loses its meaning and significance when fluffed with too many needless words.
Be active within the CB group. There is not one builder whose work resides in legendary who hasn't made his presence known in this group at some point. Help others with their builds. Express interest in the work of others and they in turn will express interest in yours. Guys like Mason are legends around here because they were literally everywhere in the group commenting on builds, offering advice and creating works of their own.
Keep making builds. Part of what it takes to consistently produce Mythic and Legendary builds is being known for producing builds of that quality. Keep making quality builds and you'll gain a reputation for quality which will draw more people to your work.
Recommend your build. Check the Build Recommendations thread often and don't hesitate to recommend your work if you feel it fits the request. Think of it as a way of helping someone out and promoting your own work at the same time.
The Undying
He may not look the part, but as the many who have fought this warrior will assure you, he is nigh indestructible. The Undying is a Teccam's most ambitious project and a juggernaut unlike any other. Using a uniquely enduring form of Dragonhide, augmented by potions and a mastery of Alteration magic, the Undying is able to nullify a staggering 97% of all physical damage received. But the insanity doesnt stop there. Augmented by his vampiric form, the Undying is capable of absorbing 100% of any magic thrown at him.
