Need help for a DPS build for Necro
Another one of these posts… here’s the response I gave the last 3
Conditionmancer PvE dps spec

Variations: 10/30/20/10/0 (with blast finisher), 20/30/10/0/20 (with soul reaping/unyielding blast), 30/30/10/0/0 (with well of corruption) or 0/30/30/10/0 (with focussing crystal for maximum cond. dmg at the expense of other traits)
Gear: 5x Rabid – Dungeon: TA, Arah, HotW/Trading post: Khilbron’s/Karma: Orr karma vendor 42k

Weapons: MH Rabid scepter, OH Rabid dagger, Rabid staff
Utilities:
1) Plague signet or Bone minions or Corrupt Boon or Spectral Walk/Spectral Armour (Lupicius)
2) BiP (use with dagger 4)
3) Epidemic (use on cooldown)
Elite: Flesh golem or Plague (situation dependant)
Runes: 6 x Undead
Sigil: MH of Earth, OH of agony/of corruption, Staff of corruption/of geomancy
Rotation: Scepter 2, dagger 5, BiP, dagger 4, (epidemic), swap weapon, staff 2, staff 3, staff 4, epidemic
Additional notes: If you consistenly pop epidemic early in the rotation you may want to enter DS to build might/stack vulnerability through reapers might/unyielding blast to fill the rotation- see build variations
Some people swap mark talents for pet talents though personally I find them to be a liability it most dungeons with aoe/random pulls etc
I have recently come across a build focussing on stacking might (sticky build post) through (strength/of the fire/hoelbrak) and sigil of battle – I am still testing it out but it seems the original build I provided comes out marginally on top (I am not a heavy theorycrafter)
You can supplement rabid gear with carrion gear until you farm the necessary tokens/karma. You can alternatively craft rampagers gear though I would then adopt a more well-centric build – see Xyi’s post on Guru forums
Of geomancy on staff relies on you being close to your enemy and should be paired with blood 10 blast finisher for maximum effect
Forgot to mention, you generally want to use consume conditions, well of blood is only really useful in story mode
Thanks for the help.
