Hi necromancers,

Returning player here, played at release and on / off in the last year. I’m looking for some advice on my gear.

I play mostly WvW in bigger groups, since the people I used to play with all quit I just tag along with whatever commander is active. Using staff / wells mostly for blanket AoE.
At the moment I am using Carrion armor and crappy (green / yellow) trinkets, but with low toughness I feel squishy. I’m thinking of getting a full set of Soldier armor / trinkets, or should I consider Apocatery? Secondary weaponm is either scepter if I get more condition damage, or axe if I go Soldiers.

This is my build:

Any and all advice / thoughts are welcome, please critique my build if I’m doing something stupid ;-)

Thanks necromancers!

Soldier is a very solid choice. I personally prefer Knight’s Armor, because I feel that Necro’s benefit much more from armor than from extra health, and I like having higher critical strike chance.

But I would say if you are mostly going to be playing with wells that you should avoid condition damage. And while healing power can be good for well of blood and transfusion, it just isnt worth losing so much damage. Healing power scaling in this game is pretty terrible in my opinion.
