Guild Wars 2

I’ve been messing around with numbers on the builder and wondering if specing into death magic for dark armor and deadly strength is a good idea to supplement damage instead of going into spite. Each channel (in this case Life Blast) give you 650 toughness, part of which converts to power with each attack. I’ve only tested it out in PVE and was pretty happy with it, but haven’t done anything besides veteran zergs and a few champion fights.
Anyone else tried this out or crunched the numbers ?

It kind of depends on what purpose or role you intend to play out. I’ve used the DM line for several of my builds that were very specific to a particular cause. If you are happy with it, roll it.

Life Blast is not a channel.

Life Leech, Life Siphon, Ghastly Claws, Life Transfer, Frozen Abyss, and Wicked Spiral are the only necro skills that are channels.
