Guild Wars 2

i used Spiteful Spirit (upon entering Death Shroud) and Spiteful Vigor (upon healing) traits. once i want to make a build focused on death shroud with this combo. will it be viable in pvp?..

your build seems very viable and simple because summoning two minions will not make this build viable because of many seconds of casting delay. and once i want to use well siphoning trait. i used bone minions and flesh wurm in screenshot. i think and i think focus trait is useless…

That’s the combo that I use in this bunker build:

You get ridiculous healing, decent power, and perma-retaliation+perma-regen.
It’s pretty hard to die TBH.

Not that i think a Bunker build works for a necro as you have to have Life for that and most Prof can kill you before you get that life force. But anyway

Looking at your build it seems like you should get 20% staff recharge over the retaliation. After all your stacking healing, With that you would be able to keep regen up full time.

@forice: The focus trait lets me re-cast reapers touch more often to give myself 11 secs of regen per cast. This + the random regen proc from rune set give me perma regen and with the evasive marks trait, regen-on-heal and staff set marks I get even more uptime.

@Angry Flying Squirrel: Yeah, no build other than the cookie cutter condi really is going to be viable right now, but this is just a different one that I found was really fun and had decent success with so long as I didn’t get 3v1ed. Also, as stated above, I have more than enough regen to have 100% uptime.

why the bone minions? If you went with flesh worm you could have a stun break, with an escape. Or just some time to get out of focus,

How can you stack up to 25?

My maths go up to 23

Do you get retaliation from every tick of the well or just once after casting?

Did you count putrid mark finisher?

I count, 6 + 6 + 6 + 3 + 5 + 3 = 28 + 20% (from death magic) = 33.6sec

Ticks 2 times for 3sec each, so 12 in total.

I am not seeing how your keeping retal up that long. The gain Retal on heal (trait) only works on your main heal. Not on sigil’s, or regen,

Not to be a bummer, but a mesmer or guardian can do that far better. =/

Once you see what a tank chaos armor mesmer build can do, you’ll weep.

Permanent regen/protection/swiftness/retaliation, and 66% of confusion per hit.

Untill we boon strip them….

Then they bring it right back up.

I have also seen a tanky Guardian build that can keep up reflection full time.

I don’t get it, what exactly did you do to get 25 seconds of retaliation?

3seconds from the trait Spiteful Spirit, 5seconds from the trait Spiteful Vigour, 3seconds from axe #3. Then what most people are struggling with, when you use Well of Blood it’s creates a light combo field, combine this with the bone minion(x2)/wurm explosions, which are blast finishers, you get AoE retaliation. You get 2 ticks for 3sec each per minion exploded, which is a total of 18seconds. You also have a blast finisher on Putrid mark which gives another 6seconds.

Which is a total of 35seconds. The OP obviously didn’t use all of these retalitation devises in his build.
