Guild Wars 2

Hey guys, I recorded my version of the power reaper doing my thing in a full match. You can check it out below and take a look at the build. A Full guide will come later, if you’re at all interested in that.

just in case a random dev comes by and sees this.

GS is trash and nobody likes it.

Corrosive poison cloud definitely seems useful, but doesn’t it give you issues always have to use a condi cleanse right after or suffer from your self-inflicted weakness?

Also, after dropping Soul Reaping and staff do you ever have issues with Life Force generation. It is something I’ve been considering, but I’m worried about a drop in sustain.

I play a similar build. It’s limited, but fun to play.

Not really, not if you’re running a condi send. Also, good practice for me is to lay down CPC and then immediately CC because the projectile destruction field helps to keep people from hitting you with Head Shots or whatever.

Yes. Greatsword LF generation is way more unstable than Staff LF. You can fill your LF by 60-70% if you land Grasping Darkness->Death Spiral on several targets, but that’s a big if.

It’s funny but I actually never thought of the weakness affecting me /facepalm. Now that you mention it though, it is a bit of an issue but it’s only for a short time and the benefits of CPC far outweigh the short drop in damage.

And about LF generation, I’ve resigned myself to understanding that this build won’t generate as much life force as your average staff wielding condimancer but when you get a good roll going the Life force you have will just seem to have no end…. unless you waste it of course.
