Guild Wars 2

I’ve searched but really haven’t found anything so I’m going to post here hoping you can help me out.

My brother started playing a Necromancer and I’ve converted him to it full time. He has fallen in love with the Staff and Wells.

What he wants is to use them both in a Power Build. I’m not really sure how to accomplish this. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I use 30/20/0/20/0 d/w and staff. Pick up the traits for ground targetable wells and reduced cool down on wells(36 sec). I use corrupt boon, well of suffering, well of corruption and flesh golem. In sPvP with knight amulet and berserker jewel. Runes of the thief. I feel very comfortable in any situation with this build but a lot of people can’t live without greater marks. You could go 30/20/20 and pick up greater marks and the 20% staff cool down reduction. Also grab the 10% increased mark damage in the first tree.

I also like 30/30/10 with scepter/dagger and staff but as a power build. Thief runes still. Berserker amulet and jewel. Same wells and then whatever other utility. I like flesh worm in this build because its so squishy so being able to cap points and then teleport to a higher level when you get focused is helpful. Wells plus staff marks and a golem knockdown does a LOT of damage. Scepter/dagger seems odd for a power build but scepter damage is decent and the bleeds are extra. You use it for the 900 range because you’re so squishy and using dagger mh would be tough. I’ve had 5k feast of corruption crits in this setup. Life blast usually crits with no outside buffs for 3900ish. It seems like a weird setup but if you kite and time your wells you can do massive aoe damage.

https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/professions/necromancer/Juggermancer-Final-Blog-Link/first#post772683 try this as well. Im mostly using that but for jewels Im going for sun/moon ascended rings and solaria necklace. Because you cant just stay pure power build. The wells and staff skills work better with a bit of condition damage extra on you. Also D/D Staff for weapons. Dont like how the focus looks or its skills. I prefer the condition transfer skill of the offhand dagger than the silly chill of focus

^ wells scale with power. The only thing condi damage helps is well of corruption if it coverts boons to damaging corruptions. Condi is always helpful though. The main be benefit with focus is not only the 1200 range chill but the #4 provides decent burst and gives regen. If you’re 1v1 someone it’ll bounce between you. I prefer warhorn over both of them for well builds though. I use the wells as burst so I need to do as much as I can as quick as I can. I can well bomb, warhorn #4 daze to interrupt the heal and warhorn #5 cripple to keep them in the wells/in front of my dagger spam.
