Guild Wars 2

and yet specc into Soul Reaping seems to gone from 33% down to 15% and cant figure anyway to compensate, even with Vital presc. u get forced out isntant now.

??? can u explain what youre talking about? if youre talking about the 30% lifeforce increase we lost due to the changesfrom soul reaping: 15% of them are now baseline and 15% of them are in the grandmaster minor in soul reaping

Yeah please clarify, I can’t log on but I’m reading your post like taking sr is somehow making your lifeforce pool smaller and that can’t be right.

everything is working perfectly i cant find any problem (dont mention the signet bug...kitten it)

I think he is asking why you only get 15% lifeforce from the soul reaping line when you got 30% before. If that’s the case they added 15% more lifeforce baseline for necros.

It says Next to Power in your Charcter Screen LF Pool 15% either its a tolltip or they not showing the Baseline, but Iam specced into Soul Reaping and I can tell u I NEVER bin thrown out of DS this fast before

thx for the clarification although i still have no idea what youre talking about...do u mean your life force is draining too fast? even with vital p?

I think he means that even with traits he only gets an additional 15% life force compared to the 33% the traitline gave before, and he wonders whether or not the rest was made baseline or not, because he feels he is getting kicked out of shroud faster than before.

so first of all it was 30% more lifeforce before the patch. secondly life force drain is % not flat so getting 15% more life force doesnt change that. and lastly i picked vital persistance and it was working perfectly. are u sure u have it equipped? are u in pvp and have only changed it for pve or the other way around?

Vital Persistance aint working or something just is Hugely nerfed with Life Force and DS

Ravezaar.4951 im telling u its working i tested everything its working ok? have u checked that u actually have made a build? are you in pvp and only have a pve build? are u in pve and only have pvp build? nothing was nerfed (ok that was a lie rip unholy fervor/barbed precision/consume conditions)

I have 5000+ hours on Necro alone, Iam just saying its a feeling. And believe me something is up… we will see in a few days I guess.

before patch it was 30% from the line. Now its 15% base and 15% from traits so in all its a net gain % lf compared to before. Also its only showing the 15% since the rest is baseline. Base lf is now 69% of your hp pool and with full soul reaping its 79%. more than before by like 1%.

May or may not be relevant here but I noticed my traits changing today, from my initial set-up. Banshee is what I noticed most, but VP as well. Went and looked and even had a different path (no Banshee). A few traits changed in the paths that stayed the same as well.

Don’t ask how or why, but changing back to what I first selected seemed to fix it.

Maybe he’s just taking more damage than he was before?

yea I dont know what it is, stuff dies faster for sure… maybe its just a feeling. Ok tnx for responses anyway.

There’s just way more damage flying around.

Everybody hits so hard because of the power creep.

“Soul Comprehension: Fixed a bug that caused this trait to affect all life-force gain instead of only life-force gain from deaths.” – developers say.
There was no bug, its bugged now; it generates very little life force. DS takes longer to build up, that was my impression and i am and was a DS build. Of course if there are lots of enemies it does not matter but it took me 2-3 enemies to build up DS. It only took 1 before. Ravezaar is not wrong. The rest you probably did not have vital persistence on or got hit hard.

This. Power creep.

When people get stronger, death shroud gets weaker. This will become a problem and I’m not sure if ANet agrees with that judging by how they seem to perceive the necro’s power level right now.

You have the same amount if LF, but everyone in the game can do more damage, so you get knocked out faster. It’s not you,, it’s them
