necro has been godmode for 6 seasons now….

How? When?
Did I lost something?

In season 1 and 2 ok, there was a bunker meta and the reaper was able to kill bunkers full of boons and able to inflict high damage with Chill.
In the past 4 seasons there’s nothing to say about a “godmode” for necromancers. The easier to kill, the lowest damage, the worst mobility, needing a babysitter All the time. It was so easy to kill that in all the last tournaments the best builds was not even using traits or skills to move/survive because without an ele to heal you all the time or a engi to ress you there’s nothing to do for a necro, only die. But was chose because is the best class to corrupt boons. No other reason. No damage, no survavibility, no movement. Only boon corruption.
And is 4 seasons that is the worst 1v1 class ever.

About the guardian, at low/mid ranks it was really good the last season but at higher ranks it was not so good. If someone know how to fight a guardian there’s only few things a dh can do to win. But it’s still good. Expecially in 1v1.

you clearly are not at the level of other necros.. its godmode

While you was answering to this troll post Sind have full capped far twice.

Also, i don’t know why peoples have to run what metabattle says if they known that a build don’t have enough way to fight.. I mean, if you don’t have supporter why not drop Chilling Nova for Augury of Death (power version) and run a shout build or drop Dhuumfire for Foot in the Grave (condi)?

Look at Sind’s post history, he’s in malicious troll mode right now. Take the bait and you will wake up in the morning with the realization hitting you like a PI.

This is how the forums are to me rn tho, not a single logic thing here when they discuss balance so might as well just fokk around

Amen. I barely look at this sub-forum anymore.

I was going to respond how this is false… but then I lul’d at the trolling.

Anyone want to tell me why classes who also do ambient damage / support are able to get away with having great 1v1 potential as well?

Guards and Elementalists especially. Cuz all im seeing is class favoritism lol.

But no seriously. Explain to meh reasons.

The only class you can more or less win on a 1vs1 with out much problems is vs an engi , players of equal skill ofc, necro would have the upper hand. Against the other classes you should only win if they are much weaker than u, because all other classes can desingage better, or kite better, or dps better , or some imunity or blocks, reapers are stronger in teams fights, but in 1vs 1 they are weaker

Other classes do fine in team fights. All necro’s are meant for is boon corrupt. Then they die. Sweet class design.

EDIT: also.. whats so hard about focusing a necromancer in a team fight? It’s pretty universally known that you focus the necro first. He can’t do all the stuff you just said (block, kite, disengage, etc) as well as other classes. So they die first in the fight.

This entire community is backwards. I swear. Only necromancers who play the class know the deal.

2nd edit: I don’t think necro’s are useless. I don’t think they are bad in solo queue. I think they need some help in other areas.

I think its disingenuous to suggest necromancers are just as capable at 1v1 as other classes (other comments in the thread). Anet doesn’t balance around 1v1’s which is why 2v2’s are on the horizon instead.

My very simple beef with the 1v1 thing is there should be 1 or 2 builds capable in every class to be selfish and 1v1 viable. Anet doesn’t think so. So, what can ya do -__-
