Hey everyone!

I have this constant issue of debating which to pick, I’ve done map completion on both but there’s been so many changes I’m kind of confused.. I do a lot of dungeons was debating branching to fractals more I usually just did the 10’s and that was it.

So basically I’m having a bit of trouble deciding between necro and STAFF ele (I run the healing build which is alright I guess but disappointing numbers wise compared to necro )

( I dont like the D/D or the S/D I’m not a single target kind of person)

I run a power necro because of the mass aoe, I know the ele offers aoe too but I am a heck of a lot squisher which obviously takes adjusting. But I haven’t seen that many ele’s around where as I used to seem them ALL the time LA used to be flooded with them.

So basically my question is which would be best for general pve and dungeon runs,
STAFF ele or Power Necro?

If you have any pro’s and con’s by all means throw them out there :P
Thanks!

Unfortunately, I am inexperienced with both staff ele and power necro. However, I’d like to mention that D/D isn’t single-target- it’s a frontal/close-range AoE weaponset. If being single-target was the only thing that bothered you, I would recommend trying out D/D or D/F (which is less bursty, but brings in the ability to spot control and block projectiles). If I misread what you wrote, feel free to ignore me.

A good ele will not run staff in most dungeon runs unless range is a requirement, because compared to s/d and d/d, staff fares poorly at damage. If your choices are really only staff ele or power necro, I’d choose the power necro instead.

A remnant of times past.

A good ele will not run staff in dungeons? Is that a serious comment? Lol A LOT of ele’s bring it in, thats like saying a mesmer will never run staff, all guardians will run hammer, all warriors will spam GS #2….. Come on.

I haven’t tried power necro, but I run staff ele all the time. Great for AC, HotW maybe, but yeah, it’s pretty good for support. I never see necros, though, if that’s what you’re asking about
