Guild Wars 2

Necros can survive just as well as a guardian or warrior on the front line in WvW, but we cannot give AOE stability like Guardians can. The support for a necro is better if the Necro is standing off to the side of the fight.

If ANet would give us a CC/support Hammer, there are many different builds that we could use on the front line and be successful. We are successful now on the front line, but we could offer so much more if we had Hammers.

AOE immobilize/stun in a well.

I would bet that Necros would be more popular in tPvP as bunkers as well. Hammer and dagger/focus – wells, DS, Plauge Form. That would be one scary Bunker.

I just want to see how many people want this as well.

sounds good, but the question is will the warriors consider it OP and demand nerf and be given that and getting buffed at the same time cuz there is no love for those poor kittens spamming 100b

I always thought the legendary archdiviner from the cliff side fractal was a little like a necro with a hammer. And since it’s already in game…

I’d like hammer, would look pretty odd though.

ANet doesn’t want to give us Vigor/Stability or access to much protection.
They say this would just make us a guardian.

Thus we will still be left with short burst’s of time when we can’t just be CC Chained/Trained.

As for extra CC, It would very likely just be different way to apply chill. With a long CD Fear.

So I’d see it working out to be a single target, meele only staff. If they want to keep it with the rest of the necro vibe.

I also don’t really see necro being strong enough to swing that baby around. I think if we get new weaps, it’d have to be something for someone who dose not lift. Pistol maybe.

I totally understand. I have a Guardian and I do see the concern. I think if they gave us a hammer that gives a 3 second stability/chill well it would be very necroish. All the other skills could be Chill, Vuln, Imobilize, Weakness.

Make it a Death hammer with a small amount of stability. I dont think this would replace Guardians at all.
