Guild Wars 2

Metabattle doesn’t seem to have up-to-date builds for necro in terms of pve anymore, most guides are either outdated, or plain bad. Some had updats, but half of it is still out of date.

Googlling only brings up stuff from years ago

If you’re looking for builds for open world, then the ones you have found will most likely work.

I run the qtfy.eu fractal build with blood variant in open world and its fun, and you get the faster runspeed on dagger without having to slot a signet. I sometimes switch in parasitic contagion just to be beefy.

For open world you can pretty much do what you want for skills, pets, wells, etc.

Just what I run, i am no means an expert but its fun to epi a group of mobs or reaper #4 to rez people.

they should fix or update fractal reaper with dark magic trait since there are no minions under skills :S
