Yea the idea of a Necro useing Boons is abit far fetched I know but bare with me here, I was thinking alot of the FiG and the recent changes to Stab. Trying to get a build that gives you the benefits of jumping in-and -out of DS while still have good enough dmg and also the option to stay in DS even without Deadly Perception and I came up with this:
Have bin testing it only for a short time due me needing to actually pvE for recipes aso, but was kinda fun to see a Turret Engi and a DD Ele be abit lost last night.
It gives me 5sec of Stab, 5sec of Ret, Weakness and Fury (when u want) every 7sec…
Still with Guard stax aso I will have both decent Power and Damage in this build, actually more then decent. The Dubloons in Sigil slots arent really needed but what the hell.
The other thing that could really spice this build up is the use of WoP on yourself and the effects of the Boons u get from converting the Conditions on you… havent had much time to try this out yet tho. Also since Food gives you 30% Boon Duration I think its fair to say it wont be as effective in sPvP.
There is also the option to Instead of useing V in Spite to say take X Spectral Attunement in Curses for a 14,5sec Protection Duration on Spectral Armor and then with Spectral Mastery have that every 40sec (twice with Last Gasp)
Il try some more but sofar I enjoy this build and havent lost a fight yet, tho as I said not much playtime with it.

Haha that DS looks like traited steal, i like. Let us know if it is worth the gear / time investment. Personally I’d take both spectral traits and war horn for offhand.
Why take DM 3 when you can get spectral attunement in curses instead?
It does alot for your LF, and it also takes the Stab over the 5sec mark. You can later it as you feel tho.

Spectral attunement would do ten times more for your life force, especially since you have last gasp. The 5 second mark is interesting but the boon will already last a really long time, high 4 seconds is comparable to 5, plus it’s only one stack now so I think the difference is negligible.
Just an observation. Seems like an interesting build. If you are someone who likes to record I’d watch a video of it.
I’ve tried this

Well, the stab will ony prevent 1 hard CC. Do you really think this extra second is woth it?
Well sofar the time has bin worth it, and its NOT just the Stab, It a really significant inc to Protection,Fury,Swiftness from say your Spectral Skills. I like it alot sofar. Seems to have effect atm doing a Guild Raid and I stay alive alot more, the able to avoid the stunlock and getting away from a FP hitting you has bin good.
Il test some more.
@Roe I do use Spectral Attument now in the Solo Roam version of the Build. Agree with you but dont wanna skimp to much on DM either or I start loosing Boon Duration.
