Sir ? what about necros ?
Dev: Whats a necro ? oh wait yeah yeah i remember now…. lets give them 180 vitality
On a serious note… can we get blocks atleast ? as a bare minimum ? on some of our skills ? or something ? Mobility maybe ? so we can hit people with our melee abilities ?
would be nice if i actualy could do something againts the obvious Burst dmg that is coming in my way the moment i see any other class runing in my way…..
or something that helps us get away from people ? seems like everyone else can teleport/Jump/dodge/invis through half the zones if something goes bad except us…
also can we maybe just MAYBE not get anymore Nerfs on our ONLY existing Defense ?
you know… Shroud ? THE shroud that suppose to replace 4+ other defensive mechanics alone ?
I feel your pain … The only defense is shroud which is also our offensive burst (kinda)..
When you look teleport wise: there is the jungle wurm and a few secs on spectral walk to tp back…
Tried jungle wurm.. Never was able to teleport me properly, always pathing issues..
The spectral walk works well as a quick retreat but the cooldown is just bonkers.. 50sec? seriously? should be 20 without traiting for it
Meanwhile Guardian: lol, let’s leap and block and cleanse and pop invul
Meanwhile Warrior: lol, look at me gap close with sword or GS or bull’s charge or pop a few stances for blocks, invuls and stab
Meanwhile mesmer: lol, portals and blinks everywhere
Meanwhile Thief: lol, i’ll just go wherever the kitten I want and you can’t even see me doing it and if you i’ll just perma evade, whatever dude
etc etc etc
At least we have shroud 2 to gap close (as long as the opponent is on full cooldown with his mobility skills because the distance travelled with this skill is not enough)
Good thing that’s only on a 7sec cooldown…. owh… wait.. 10sec, it’s 10 sec now..
No matter how many posts in here or reddit or social media crap I feel Necro will forever be left behind… I hope not but it looks grimm..
seriously the moment we get a Shield as elite spec it will be the Meta for all necro spec with no exception and all elite specs will die that was before it…
inb4 they don’t add a block ability on the necro shield in the future….
The Shroud excuse for why Necromancers can’t have nice things has always been a bit flimsy but with how fast players and enemies can spike you to hell now it’s completely a myth. Shroud will melt in an instant if you get focused and then what? You die.

the majority of classes that have burst can take down shroud in seconds after they jump on you…
Necro? They have infinite health and highest sustain in the game! If we give them block, evade or mobility other profession will find them unkillable. So this would be gamebreaking.
No core profession should be balanced around an optional elite specialization.

Gs systain:base 200 and 260ish per sec with a relatively large investement to healing.
Ranger systain:360 per sec base with only requirement to have protection on.
Theres only 2 explanations on why anet balance is doing this.
Edit —->A:they are plainly mentaly logicaly and mathematicaly impaired
B:they are doing it on purpose
My money goes on A but they certainely wont come out to admit either.
Maybe we should call angryjoe again because the only time they ever did something to improve the class was when they got bad publicity.

If you see a gear above my head……run
If you see me Offline,its totaly not a trap
Since no one seems to care, I’d like to thank ANet for the reworked Speed Of Shadows.
Has saved my ass countless times already and is already feeling like a mandatory trait in WvW. No more more getting perma-immob’d by Druids and no more getting Chilled/Crippled or Immobilized just before a zerg runs you over. The lengthy Swiftness is just the icing on the cake.
Why play a class if its bad for the content you want to play? There are 8 other classes to choose from. When it comes to wvw raid time I choose to play reaper because its so good. When I occasionally feel like playing spvp I choose reaper because its so good.

Reaper only good in spvp if its babysitted…
I find it hard to believe anything you say after your quip about not being able to land Gravedigger. Yes, the reaper has flaws. No, its not to the extent you describe it at. I’m sure you don’t play at ‘pro’ ranks and neither do the people you are up against, and in those situations the reaper is completely fine 1v1.
I don’t get babysat every game and I win at least half my 1v1 encounters.

go play in diamond then come back and say you landed a single gravedigger… or that necro is fine or that your winning your 1v1 encounters…
or hell just try to land anything againts good mesmers and thiefs hell even freaken warriors can just ignore and walk away from you with their better mobility even kitten Engis when you want to do anything usefull dmg wise on a power build….
yes its at the extend as im describing it…..
there is a reason necro is number one target…. because its kitten easy to shut it down.. kitten easy to avoid its attacks and kitten easy to take down….
and you think thats fine lol
our only single defense can be bursted down in seconds by a single good player that knows how to burst… then he can just stay away from you mostly and before that 10sec shroud comes off CD you are allready dead with the second burst he gonna do….
thats how most of the good players take a power necro out…. no ammount of Vitality or Toughness will counter it trust me in that…

and i aint going condi.. i HATE condi both animation and gameplay wise…
i down leveled myself to a WvW bot at this point… and just waiting for balance changes to happen to Power reaper…. until then Spvp does not even exist in my eyes on this class….

at that level people abuse their classes mobility like a madman on steroids….
and power Reaper you know the mostly melee Necro does not have mobility….
im either hitting someone with an Axe at range and hope they dont Dodge/immune or outrange Axe2…. or let the enemy dance me arround and only come it for the HIGH BURST while i desperatly trying to hit someone with my melee abilities….
you have a GS pull and a shroud leap and thats all and both is so slow and obivious animated that they both will get avoided majority of times…
so axe 1 and 2 left… yaaay for power necro…..
Devs designed a Melee class without mobility or enough tools to counter some of the burst atleast GZ for them…..
the only times Power reaper feels usefull in Spvp when your with your team and the enemy blown majority of their stuff in the fight THEN you can go on the point and release hell….. but allot of the time even then they still have enough mobility to stay away from the reaper like seriously….

I think SPvP is not fun because after 5 years it lacks too much infrastructure to support the team play dynamics. Sure, as a necro I get focused, but if I don’t I can easily wreck havoc, so its justifiable I’d get focused. I find the issue is that they dont have any basic tools for you to communicate to your team, basic tools that GW1 had, and that just makes it frustrating.
I’d take infrastructure updates to necro buffs anyday. I can always abandon playing necro altogether. But that said, I play 6 of the 9 classes regularly.

Thats it mate thats my set of tactics right there. I come in all chest puffed out when everyones half health and depleted… feelsgood

Any DPS spec when not focused wreaks havoc.
You let a mesmer or ele freecast on people and see what happens.
Issue is people can actually shut you down as necro, so they do it.
Necro needs to have a mechanic where the more damage/closer to death it gets, either they get tougher or do more damage so training the necro carries real risk of retaliation.
In spvp usually I join fights when foes have already start fighting to “safely” support my mates (blood magic) and they depend on me like I depend on them.
I really enjoy fight when I have a good thief cause I can ask for stealth while passing across me in his rotation (very helpful for ressing and repositioning).
Boonstrip, heal, ress and cleanse on shout: i’m more helpful for my team running a power support build with blood magic than running spite or curses, greatsword traited to have a poors man blighter boons (running reaper’s onslaught) along with Axe/WH gives me enough blinds/boon corrupt/life force generation to not die easily if focussed.

so:
babysitted
tanky build
and not killing anything
and joining fights where your enemies allready used majority of their burst and Utilities….
if all this is needed to not get focused down in seconds then the class has issues dont you think ?…
meanwhile most other classes running glass cannons more tankier then you Faster then you with more boons then you with more utility and with smart play can almost instantly take down others….

yaaaaaay Balance……
Really I usually babysit others (but this isn’t only on necro), tanky build it’s necessary for every support class, usually I’ve not trouble 1vs1 if not when starting with very very low life force or if the duellist it’s very skilled, I offer great fight group presence and I can secure stomps. Waiting foes to waste CDs on people who can block it’s just being smart.
GS and Soul Reaping alone can help to survive focus.
I’m not saying that the class it’s fine as it’s now and that others class can’t kill you near istantly (if maybe catch you by surprize), but usually you can manage others boons pretty easily and react to others burst. We have the tools to do it even if not as good as others class.
Of course you’ll have to play a build that let you do it, not the Itotallydependonourelementalistwhocaresaboutselfsurvivalionlyhavetocorrupt metabattles build.
Said so, if we could have a real useful teleport skill or at least a defensive ability other than blind or movement imparing to try to “kite” in a weapon set it could be very helpful for the class. But it should be avaiable for core necromancer, not tied to e-spec.
At least it sort of seems like the devs at least tried with Scourge…
You should see what the poor rev’s are getting.
Renegade is a good joke, I can’t even believe that they dared to take the racial skills (that revenants can’t take) and put them altogether into an elite spec.
No core profession should be balanced around an optional elite specialization.
Question to you guys:Is condi gonna be king stat? or vitality now?
If scourge uses vitality for shield then we will be forced to have vitality for shield right?
I’m not sure what part vitality plays for barrier/shield but the current formula is (0.75 * Healing Power) + Base Barrier Value from Skill according to wiki. So it seems heal power would be a better investment.
Surrender and serve me in life, or die and slave for me in death.
If necros have to take healing and forego all expertise then i imagine only reason for that is a bunker necro tank healer hybrid type?
We might actually be tanky enough to tank fractals maybe? hmm interesting idea.Or we might simply be a tanky support class who can debuff buff and heal.

Yes. There is a cap on how much barrier you can have at once equal to half your max health. So, increase your max health, and you can receive more barrier.
Not so important for the Scourge, though, since with no Vitality investment, you will have a cap of over 9k.

Its sadly true that other classes are rather overbloated. I cant think of many ele skills that do just “one thing” on its own, despite ele having much more skills to begin with. I mean the shade skills for example, you have a skill doing JUST a barrier. Another skill that does JUST a fear, and a third one that JUST cures conditions. The F1 does nothing on its own. Also the Utility skills are soooo boring.. i mean leaving a trail that gives speed and burning? A skill that does nothing but gives a bit of might and lifeforce? Either its just me, or these skills have a lot of wasted potential compared to other classes.. i dont know if they value the “corrupt a boon into cripple and torment” so high but man. That feels SO wasted. I know Scourge has a higher target cap with the shade skills, but come on.. we loose our entire deathshroud for these 5 skills.. they feel lackluster. The utilities feel lackluster too. Its like WTF?

welcome among the necros
the only class that got left out of the Powercreep
what im laughing the most tough is that the Necros new Elites spec do not fix ANYTHING on the Necro XDDD
its like devs totaly ignoring the Necro Player base XD still no Block/immune/Invis/Mobility/evades or some realiable healing regen or something anything XD
they even removed the 15k-20k shroud and replaced it with like a 6k shield that scales horrible with healing powerand degenerate Ultra fast XDDDD sure you can stack it but Players will hit you way harder then you can stack it XD
Given Reaper is the best thing to ever happen to Necro in PvE, I’m not sold on Gee focusing purely on PvP.
…..What?
Reaper was meant to be a power focused specialization with the greatsword and reaper shroud.
By accident due to how a grandmaster and shout works, what would have been a useless power build and weapon elite spec ended up being a slight upgrade over regular condi necromancer.
Reaper shroud is useless in PvE outside a condi reaper using the whirl, and greatsword is garbage. So are most of the shouts which have specific PvP centric functions as unblockable attacks are worthless in PvE and so are chills and boon corruption.
