Let me start by saying ive never played a necro, ive never even created one. When messing around in the build editor i came up with this. 2300 condi dmg with stacks and BiP!!! Holy kitten thats a ton!!!! Just hitting BiP does 15k damage(if they keep those 2 bleed stacks for 48 seconds, which is beyond unlikely, but 15k dmg for only TWO stacks of bleeds, wtf. Im not sure how good vampiric precision is, but it sounds good, especially in solo WvW where a lot of the time its 1vX. Also runes of scavenging.Why? They give the most condi dmg(more than undead with rabid). Also more life stealing.

Like i said never played necro before, is this viable or not for solo WvW?

I use a build similar to this for running in a group and it’s very effective. For solo roaming I’ve found that a power build is better and just nuke enemies with Lich and shroud.

Ok so i Wikipedia the vampiric traits, and they only heal ~70hp COMBINED IF it crits. I also realized the +50% fear duration isn’t that great, and dhuumfire would give more damage. Also +30% condi duration, 70% with pizza, 133% on bleeds from scepter. Im still running terror, but am not sure if its worth it without the +50% fear duration.

I would wait for the next patch that helps the vampiric traits before using them in a solo build. They just heal for too little to really give you any serious amount of sustain in a 1v1 scenario.

They are ok for PVE, or even large scale zerg WvW, where your AoE’s are returning lots of little digits in siphons from how many people you are hitting.

But solo, how many times do you even hit the other guy, 20 to 30? Talking maybe 1000 health over that combat, which is a pittance compared against other sustain builds, what a healing ele or guardian, etc, can do.
