Guild Wars 2

Could the visual affects of Death Shroud and DS #4 not be such a huge bulls sign for us? I understand it may be a ‘balance’ type of thing -I could be very wrong it may just be aesthetics- but what happens now is CC is pretty much saved against a Necromancer for DS and if the Necro was to use #4 inside Death Shroud its the mother of all bulls-eye signs!

There is nothing wrong with forcing someone to use a CC, or to hold back from using a CC.

Not sure what your ‘conclusion’ has to do with my post, actually its neither here nor there. Name one other class ability -from any other class- that shouts focus fire me and cc me more than death Shroud and DS #4!

That is one of the things I myself enjoy about the class. I run with a few other guys from my guild and my goal is always to be the one the enemy is focusing. I can lay down tons of aoe really fast and then bunker down. hitting 4 while in DS may spell certain death for me but it also spells death for the enemies while they let my team who is more speced around damage eat them alive.

To answer your question. I am much more likely to decide not to attack classes instead of targeting others. Mesmers…. if I don’t get a mark on it early I will leave it for last. As far as classes I like aiming. If I see a necro in DS using #4 I think of the 2-3 teammates of theirs that I can kill while they sit there wasting their own survival skill. A thief hopping around is much more fun to force a stealth out of than a necro to CC. Just dodge roll in opposite directions and force it out of its aoe comfort zone.

Tome of Wrath.

The real question is why are you spending so much time in DS that it becomes a vulnerability?
