Q:
Help with my terror/condi build SPVP
A:
Dhuumfire hits like a truck, it’s totally worth it.
What’s absolutely useless is Lingering Curse. Don’t get me wrong, it’s awesome in PvE. But players in PvP have this tendency to use condi cleanses, you wont be able to stack 25 bleeds on anyone.
The most common build used in sPvP right now is: 30 ins Spite (Dhuumfire), 20 in Curses(Terror), and 20 in Soul Reaping (Master of Terror). Flow already pointed that out with some good suggestions for trait choices. You have a bit of leeway in your choices as long as you go for Terror, Master of Terror and Dhuumfire. I also agree with Flow on your choices in Soul Reaping.
The combination of burning, fear, bleeds and torment hits really hard. Also give the Golem Elite a try. While Plague Form is quite a beast, the golem will allow you to put opponents flat on their behind every 40 seconds. With runes of Lyssa, that will also buff you up on a 40 second cooldown. Between your 4 sources of fear Doom in DS, Reapers Mark on Staff, Spectal Wall, Corrupt Boon(turns stability into fear ) and the golem knockdown your enemies will have their hands quite full.

First suggestion: use a different build calculator :P
This one seems to be outdated, Greater Marks is now a master trait.
Other than that it looks ok, just take Staff Mastery instead of Greater Marks.
If you want to run the condi build that almost every necro uses these days: Go 30 in Spite (30/20///20) with Spiteful Spirit, Chill of Death and Dhuumfire. The 10/20 traits in Curses and Soul Reaping are spot on.

Is Dhuumfire worth?
What about runes? i can’t decide trough Lyssa, Unded and Necro….uhm…
Do you suggest a fear build or a pure condi one with Emophilia and Soul Marks in Soul Reaping?
Thanks for Helping
Yeah most people use Dhuumfire because of the extra burst damage, but that’s not to say your build wouldn’t work! Well, you can’t take Greater Marks with 10 in Death, but you could put those 10 points in SR for Foot in the Grave, nice counter to all the hammer warriors running around. If you’re only just starting out in pvp you might actually find it easier to learn with cause it’s a bit more defensive. The only thing I would say is a must-have trait for a condition build is Terror, it’s a lovely trait. Try them both, see which one you like best!
Thank you all guys! i’m now using 30/20/0/0/20..very effective actually

I use Terror build always in sPvP and the best way I found for me to use it is that way, if an opponent doesn’t have much access to Stability I’ll swap out Corrupt Boon for Spectral Walk. Any who it is pretty much self-explanatory
