Guild Wars 2

Hi everyone,

my main is a mesmer and i am now starting to push my fractal level beyond 30. I heard that in higher fractals a necro can be helpful so i am considering to gear up my necro alt (actually i would love to play him more in dungeons but due to lack of utility i stick with my mesmer) so i can switch between those two according to the very fractal.

Atm i run spoj’s dagger build and i wanted to ask what build is the most optimal for high level fractals.

I would be thankful for any kind of advice.

Spoj’s dagger build is the way to go unless you want conditions.

I was looking for spoj’s dagger build.

Is this the one? http://en.gw2skills.net/editor/?fQAQRBIhhu1IjW6elmxG9eCA6Ru46cMjjXm+Q5A-jAyAY/BRTRgJNgUhAl8KiGbxtIas6aMlLRUdQAjC-e

^ Yes that is the build you want.

The dagger build is fine for fractals especially as mobs have been nerfed so condition aoe isnt as useful anymore. Just keep in mind that you may want to use a scepter sometimes with my build for extra aoe and possibly an offhand dagger with it. And take extra wells when needed. It can be adapted quite easily for whatever you need. You dont need to switch to condi gear to take advantage of necros condi aoe, with might stacks the bleed damage is pretty respectable and you keep your much higher base damage.

Roll Mesm/War/Guard… I joke but that’s been my perspective lately… 30+ all I get is aggressiveness by being a necro.

Until they fix conditions also (not sure why it’s taking so long, we’ve been waiting a year+ now) we will be losing damage with our bleeds, and if you go power we still not as effect as a warrior in melee and we in cloth compared to their heavy.

i dont know where is the problem with conditions , im fine with them , lots of aoe + 18might (blood is power + the signet that sends your cond to oponents + spite ) + cond food ( which is much more efective than power food ) = better than close combat power build… , im only unhappy with poison that dmg-s only 200-300 which is ignorable…

Well when 1 berserker mesmer can ruin my entire damage that’s gets to be a problem… he spawns 3 of his pistol unload phatasms each one can crit 8 times and each crit will put on a bleed 8/16/24… so each time they unload they will delete some/all my damage.

‘DELETE’ MY DAMAGE and his supposed to be on my team? Game is broken and has been since day 1 with bleed conditions.

ok im not sure but i heard somewhere that when bleed reach limit(25) that only weakest bleeds got deleted ,so the ones who have full cond build shouldt be aware of bleeds getting deleted

Not to my knowledge it’s the oldest bleed, unless someone can back it up?

I think you are thinking of a idea someone put forward, but never got any light by anet.

Would be a bit unfair though wouldn’t it on open world bosses 1 guy going to have crazy cond damage and others won’t have any.

Yeah oldest stacks of bleeds/might always get overwritten. Its one of the reasons empower on the guardians staff is actually a very bad skill to use if your group uses fire fields. Its also why having classes which stack bleeds passively hurts condi damage classes.
