Q:
Is raiding needed to create Nevermore
Raids aren’t required to make any legendary weapon; they’re required to make legendary armor.
You’ll have to do whatever fractals that drop the items listed in your collections. Some will be low level (1-10), but others might be higher levels.
As stated above raids are not required. You can see everything required for each collection here. This is the link for Vol. 1 and what it requires.

Vol 2 – 4 are linked at the bottom of that page.
Right now only up to level 10 FoTM is required.
Right now only up to level 10 FoTM is required.
Dusk requires Mai Trin for the first tier, and I think the lowest for that fractal is 25.
Right now only up to level 10 FoTM is required.
At one point you need the raven in the solid ocean fractal for which one has at least to run a lvl 20 fotm.

:Fractal requirements by collection:
Nevermore I: Fractal 2 (Swamp/Bloomhunger, may require a higher Mossman version)
Nevermore II: Fractal dailies for Stabilizing matrices
Nevermore III: Fractal dailies for Stabilizing matrices; Fractal 1 (Urban); 7 (Cliffside); 20 (Solid Ocean)
Nevermore IV: Fractal dailies for Stabilizing matrices; Fractal 5 (Snowblind); Fractal 6 (Volcanic); Fractal 7 (Cliffside, again); Fractal 8 (Underground Facility);
You can actually buy the stabilizing matrices on the TP. So other than the specifically required fractals for boss loot items you don’t have to spend a lot of time in fractals if you don’t want to.
