Hey, so I’ve been getting back into pvp and I’ve been doing the dreaded solo queue.

I basically have two builds and classes in mind that I’d like to use mainly, and I’m having a very hard time deciding which one I should specialize in so to say, like which one I should attempt to master.

Basically I’m torn between glass S/F ele (Zoose’s build) and spectral power necro (a guildmates spectral oriented build). These are the playstlyes I like because they produce very high numbers on a relatively glassy character.

Which of these builds would you think would help win games more? Powe Necro has a lot more staying power because the traited spectral skills keep life force high, and the high powered auto attacks are certainly strong. S/F Ele is great for dismantling engis and rangers for its projectile hate, and is an admittedly harder build to play, that revolves more around kiting and bursting every few seconds, but has more issues with thieves than necro does.

Anyway, part of the reason why I like these builds, is that they are kind of uncommon, yet effective, and I personally find them fun. Neither is considered cheesy, and both require a decent amount of skill to perform well with.

hard to say which is better between A and B when we know what A is but only have some vague infos about B.

…but probably ele, necros are ok but after a certain skill level players just sort of learn how to handle a necro and the low mobility doesn’t help them in soloQ either.

if you can play S/F Ele, thats a funny thing, well I cant, cause cant get warm with scepter.
Can be extremely strong.

But saw power Necros with Lich Form that ruled pretty well too.

Then again as ele I have to say do that ele.

Okay thanks for the advice! Yeah the necro build in question uses traited spectral skills and a zerker amulet to be surprisingly tanky while still hitting really hard. It has a high swiftness uptime and with the short blurb about necros getting dagger semi – cleave and better defenses for the next patch made me interested. And it also does really well against most thieves which I struggle with on S/F ele.

Anyway thanks for the advice. I mean I can play both depending on what mood I’m in, just want to pick one to be my pvp main.
