How I saved 1330 gold in a single afternoon
One day I wanted to buy a car. But then I realized I can just use the subway.
Maybe I make a post about how I saved 30k $!
Maybe you weren’t using proper rotations if it took you so long, or you were using staves and scepters? :d maybe bad traits. I can’t believe it took you 40 min with good performance, if this took 1 hour with kitten builds and healing lupi forever.
You’re supposed to all go DS build 62006 if you want the most optimal speedrun with 5 necros (i might be wrong here)

I prefer axe over staff personally, dagger generates life force fast enough when i need it, and in those times i come out of ds and it’s on cd so I can’t range, I use ghastly claws.
But yeah, necro isn’t particularly hard, use blood is power, use focus 4 and drop your well of suffering and go spam life blasts until you get to 50% life force then exist and spam some dagger autoattacks to get above the 50% threshold and repeat.
People like to say necro is broken, but while it’s one of the weaker classes, the necromancer is miles ahead of poor mesmers, who you just bring for a few gimmicks as their practical damage is terrible. I can spam my necro’s life blasts for damage similar to a phantasm that’s on a 16 sec cd, hits a single target if its not the iwarden, and my life blasts are actually not wiped out by incidental pve aoe spam like mesmer illusions are.

It’s not a joke if it isn’t funny though!
actually, a group of 5 necros shouldn’t be so bad. none of you can do anything good for the rest, but each one of you should be putting enough damage not to spend 40 minutes.
i think 66002 is much better than 62006
And yeah, i get your point, i save thousands of gold every day i don’t buy the precursors i want.
And if anet makes the gs a ranged weapon then i am considering quitting this game. Really.
I laughed. Today. Not at this thread, though.
Signet of spite doesnt work in DS.

I feel you bro
Today, I made Lyss. I lost money.
The end.

It was twice as expensive and I wasn’t looking to make Quip. :>

If you make quip and sell it, you have both the skin and the gold :>

But I don’t have any interest in making a 4th legendary for any purpose…

Are you sure?
Part of the pull of a legendary though is having a weapon whose stats you can swap on demand without having an inventory full of different stat weapons though.
I would never bother with the cancer that is world exploration (and I did it on my slow as kitten mesmer shivers, never again I had to use runes of the centaur and mantra to keep up perma swiftness) just for a couple thousand gold. Ew.

Isn’t it lovely just how neglectful the design is? Pretty much how rangers begged them on beta to not implement pets, and they went with it anyways and 2 years in we still have that terrible piece of AI that doesn’t even scale with gear stats, cannot cleave (unless it’s a single pet family out of the entire bunch), and doesn’t benefit from foods/consumables and cannot avoid certain attacks or attack certain targets. And that’s just ranger pets, which are miles ahead necromancer minions.
But…. it’s not like the necro has any better options than signet of spite and you’re still bound to use your weapon autoattacks every so often.
I was looking at the Revenant skills and traits and I can only hope anet is going to revamp the vanilla classes’ traits and skills to the same level of potency/utility.

You use both wells and BiP for DS build

Which I mentioned? Well of Suffering and BiP. All the other wells are fairly useless anyways in most scenarios, well of darkness is of no use with a thief around and its long cd hardly justifies its use on a boss given its benefit compared to signet of spite. Signet of spite might not work in DS, but extra power is never an extraneous feature whereas condi removal/blind is.
The third slot really is up to you but in terms of damage signet is gonna beat it unless you can afford to use a minion instead on that encounter.
Well of Corruption does damage. Honestly surprised that people still forget this.
Yeah but it’s considerably less than suffering and I’m not even sure over the course of a fight it outdoes the benefit of the alternatives. It’s also stationary so if for some reason your target moves out of it you lose damage.
It’s not really much of a difference.
Its lower damage but its still considerable burst. Signet of Spite is better for dagger build. WoC is better for DS build. Its that simple.

I saved 15% or more on my car insurance….By putting it in reverse and driving away from the scene of the accident.
OP you didn’t “save” 1330g by not buying that item. You didn’t spend 1330g by not buying that item. There is a difference…
It’s the chain I beat you with until you

The plot twist in this story would’ve given M. Night Shyamalan a run for his money.

what?! if i made a lengedary and sold it on the TP, i get both the thousands of gold and the skin unlockeD?
No. If you make a legendary and sell it, you unlock the precursor’s skin.
“Memories are nice, but that’s all they are.”
And if you buy Eternity you unlock all 5 skins used in crafting it.
slow clap
By judging the first few posts I was afraid noone will understand the point of this thread. No, I will not stop whining on the forums about necros, because I want to play mine in dungeons, but as it stands it’s just so, SO bad compared to other classes. Yes, I’m bitter about it.
you are best off hoping for the content to change.
Necros will never, and probably should never excel at a top level in a meta based on fast movement and initial bursts.
welllll maybe the new specification could redefine the necro paradigm
But necro is soooo good in pvp and wvw. My necro baby wears 3 skins worth of 9,000 gold and another 3,000 gold will be soon added to her collection.

I’ve seen Necros do more damage that most average players on other classes (not uber ones, of course) but they use berserker builds with daggers <3, not conditions. You should give that a try (a serious not-laughing or being skeptical try), it may surprise you (like it did with me).

plz read yourself again, even few times. why are you here seeking attention instead of playing your necro in dungeons like u want? i play my necro everyday in high-end pve and i dont feel the urgency to whine on forums about my class anymore. ANet is alrdy quite aware of the uselessness of this class, especially now after AngryJoe mentioned it in front of Colin’s face
You guys would have cleared faster if you bought the skin.

AngryJoe only mentioned it in the context of conditions sucking, as if necro were only about conditions. Which is also a constant PvP guy perspective, that power necros somehow are fine.
