Next BWE test Reaper&Necro in Raids
Last beta weekend I had no necro. I played reaper for about 30 minutes at the end of the beta weekend. I now have a level 80 necro. I currently have valkyrie armor with strength runes and berserker trinkets. For traits I have spite, blood magic, and soul reaping. I’ll probably have to trade blood magic for reaper though. I’ll be sad to see it go but as fun as it is I don’t think it’s worth more than spite or soul reaping. More than anything I want to try a condition build but currently in PVE it’s not even worth it.
I’m probably gonna try valk gear, zerker felt overall like overkill in the last BWE. As far as traits I’ve not yet decided.
I was wondering if a half Valkyrie and half Cavalier Reaper would fare better than pure Valkyrie in raids. Or pure Cavalier combined with Death Magic for extra power from toughness.
Death Magic begs to be used when you have defensive gear, but it has 0 party support. Armored Shroud and Beyond the Veil should be applied to allies too. Granting bonus toughness while in shroud, and protection when you exit it, would be great support to party survivability.
Hopefully the balance changes are in for this weekend. I’ll be trying out a condition reaper in the raids.
my Valkyrie/Solider and Celestial sets are ready for reaper!
