Does this build exist?
Soldier ammy. I use something that basically ignores condition use: http://gw2skills.net/editor/?vRAQNBIhZakjGapxaaw1G4vxxvQNvhM4IoZxXEswvMA+AA-TZRBwAbOEA02focZgFnAAAPBAA
I use spectral grasp mostly for the LF gain on hit, but being able to pull an enemy down from a ledge and interrupting them/increasing their cool downs is also nice, though you can use pretty much whatever you want in that slot. Other than that, it’s a pretty standard Wells build, I think
It looks like the perfect build for me, I like using wells and I can see how the stun of the the dagger can work really well with spectral grasp to get some really good AoEs on the enemy.
What stats should I build and in what priority?

Yeah, typically I follow Grasp with either the immobilize or daze, though I try to hit both to set up for wells. And, I believe the link shows the stat set and everything in the armor panel, but basically:
Soldier Amulet: Power, Vitality, Toughness
Strength Runes
Dagger: Sigil of Force
Warhorn: Sigil of Bloodlust
Staff: Sigil of Force
Sigil of Hydromancy
If you play a soldier well Necro you dont even need CC or grasp. You can go all wells and bomb caps.

Not sure how true that is.. In my experience, being able to control your opponent a bit makes it so that you get the max effectiveness out of your wells. Because otherwise it’s pretty difficult to make them work as best as possible. Spectral Grasp -> Wail of Doom -> Dark Pact is a hell of a CC chain.
Throw in weapon swap to staff to trigger the Hydromancy Sigil and then cast Chillblains -> Putrid Mark is even more potent, though at that point your hard CC is gone and that’s your burst gone as well. Which is when you switch to shroud, ideally, and through out Tainted Shackles -> Doom and life blast a bit while kiting as best as you can.
Edit: Also, the other two wells aren’t stellar. Well of Power is good for personal sustain (and a little team assistance) But Well of Darkness is… lackluster. So, realistically, you want a spectral skill in your third slot (or, hell, take a signet there if you want. Again, whatever suits your style in the third slot)
