Guild Wars 2

I mean, cmon….

/15 oneshots

Full zerk vs full zerk/no armour.

Full Zerk is not the answer.

Lich Form is.

The answer is: kittened.

Nothing else is a valid answer.

Edit: I can’t read.

Mmmm dat 18k 1 shot auto attack, Yummy, Double sigil’s on insanely high proc rates with low cooldowns most definitely are not broken, at all.

Beliebe in the Llama king, for he will deliver us from this lunacy.

Bhawb.7408:

You’re mad that a full glass cannon build used an elite transform to deal a lot of damage? The only stupid thing is that Lich was allowed in super cereal game mode like 1v1.

I’m the necro dude wtf is wrong with your brain rofl.

18 k oneshots are totally legit, indeed they are.

and it was in yolo q, surely not in 1vs1.

I blame it on waking up at 6am on a saturday.

3k lightning strike is low , I already got hit for 4,2k on my geared warrior by another warrior.

The sad thing is that Lich Form can hit much harder than that

im just surprised the title isn’t “WAkittenkitten”

Balance is a delicate process. No whack-a-mole.

Everything in that screenshot aside from the spinal shivers hit looks normal. Never seen spinal shivers hit for so much — it looks like it’s over-scaling with attack power.

That chill of death trait is just… pants on head silly when procced by a Lich.

Boon Rip, Chill, Instant 7k PROC?

Seeing as Chill of Death can’t be avoided, and even if you get hit by a fart it will still proc, like Incendiary Powder, it seems a bit wonky when used with Lich.

Maybe… Lich form should suppress damage procs while it’s active. 5k Deathly Claw autos’ are nothing to laugh at.

Elegant solution.

The proc is still stupid powerful just on a power necro in general, all it takes is for to touch you at 50%, or death shroud 1 you, and your essentially insta-gibbed, and since it’s a proc, as you said, its unavoidable damage, no dodging, invuln, or ability in the world can save you from it, which is terrible for counterplay, and impossibly hard for new players to understand whats happening to them, just bad all the way around.

However, I do feel that in general, far too much of this games power damage is now coming from procs moreso than dodgable damage.

It only does that much when you remove a full three boons with 6/2/0/0/6, zerker amulet, and some kind of +% damage runes against a full glass build. Even against a light golem, I was hitting 2.5k, with 10 stacks of might and the +% damage from strength runes. So even if the golem had boons I would have dealt more like 6k.

Not exactly skillful, but no less so than sKill Shot or other things that are basically gimmick bursts with really easy avoidance if you know they are coming. I feel like the DS1+Chill of Death proc is worse (although it doesn’t have the extra raw stats of Lich), because instead of being a pretty easily countered transform on a huge CD with a big tell, it can happen really often.

Although unfortunately if you nerf the proc, you are basically nerfing a build that already isn’t that good (and is bound to get indirectly pounded by the inevitable strength rune nerfs).

Lyssa took 2 years to nerf…
Strength runes fo eva!

Ok dudes it went a bit off lawl.

This is not a “OMAGWD OP NERF PLOX” thread.

I’ve been playing power nec as my “main” (along with thief) from beta, and it has never been viable, not a single time, and it’s not even now.

Pow nec is uber squishy, has no mobility, no reliable ranged damage and no realiable AoE damage without CDs ( wells).

It’s an over all “balanced” build relying totally to burst damage.

Point is, when that damage goes out, it’s silly and ridicolous: wells+lich shananigans is ridicolous if you stay in the circle, something like the biggest source of damage that has been coded in the game.

I just find this damage silly, and i would be really satisfied if this was “flipped” into a more reliable source of damage instead of oneshotting whole teams if they don’t stop you.

That’s it.

I like that so many people complain conditions are OP meanwhile on the power spec side of things this stuff is going on… Make up your minds folks, if you keep saying this is OP and that is OP we’ll all be throwing teddy bears at each other by year’s end.

Right, necro needs some serious adjustment. It’s too weak to compete overall, but has that 7k proc and the ability to 1-shot multiple other builds with lich autoattack…that tells me things need to be re-adjusted.

Can I have your build OP? Want to play my necro.

You made a reference to South Park. Very clever, very clever.
