Guild Wars 2

I just want to gauge the feeling out there. I don’t feel like I fare very well, but that’s my opinion.

Are you “Faring quite well”?

I fare quite well after swapping classes.

From a fractal perspective we are in a good spot. So much so that dying in fractals as a necro has become a meme.

From WvW perspective we were fine to begin with and we didn’t receive any nerfs regarding our place in PvP. If anything I might dust off my power build for PvP.

I don’t know what to say about Necro in raids as I am not that experienced, but they may still be needed in places they were used (Sloth, Matt etc).

I may sound like I am ignoring the nerf but it is apparent that balance patches has hit a nerf trend – I am just glad Epidemic is still the same as it was and there wasn’t any other nerfs.

wvw necro is the same as it’s always been, yes. a ragdoll made slightly less so because of reaper shroud.

And you know, the 2nd best zerg profession. Behind the god that is Guardian.

WvW Necro is fairing very well. Death is our core theme, so naturally we should be the best at dying, right?

I do not care about meta and dps, so yes, my tanky Necro with my own unique build is “faring quite well”, like always…

Quite sad about horrors, but I’ll live.

I fare quite well after swapping classes.

Yep.

My axe damage went up and I mostly use an axe to solve disputes, so I’m faring quite well.

Some stability would be nice, or some stun breaks worth using as utilities.

Yes, I am.
But then again I know why I picked necro, and I customized it to fit me, not rely on a meta build that apparently relies heavily on a single skill that’s on several mins cooldown.

I don’t play condi, I play power necro, so I do quite well. I also play pve 99% of the time, and power necro in pve is great.

My power necro never fared well in group PvE, nothing new here.
