Guild Wars 2

I’ve seen a guard do that.

It’s rather uncommon, but it is very effective. Strangely, most Necros I’ve seen roaming have been human or sylvari, and I have never actually seen this tactic used by anyone, but it definitely works.

hell yeah i do it all the time. I am a norn necro, and use it to gtfo when I need too. Esp when you have to get away froma zerg, or when you kill someone, and need to go. Love it, and you dont loose much imo, by using it. If not, i usually run with our friendly non-responsive linebacker, skinless looking minion that usually stairs there. The knockdown is good though.

Looks like I got a plan for my my 80 tombs of knowledge >.>

It is definitely possible, and works really well for condi necro since lich/plague aren’t important for you in-fight, and Flesh Golem is iffy sometimes.

Shhh ! before this gets nerfd

You can always do what I like to do. Though, it doesn’t always work it’s rather hilarious when it does. Drop Flesh Wurm at max range, activate Spectral Walk, port to Wurm, run until the second before SWalk ends then use Spectral Recall and you’re now behind whoever’s chasing you and way far away from them in the opposite direction.
Works basically the same as juking with regular SWalk but you get more distance out of it and therefore puts more distance between you and whoever you’re trying to get away from.

But as for your question, yes, it definitely works and quite well. Though, since it has a bit of a cast time to activate you better be prepared to press that button when it matters.

Yeh it’s great as a oh kitten button or if you want to surprise attack

I would rather die than play one of those kittens…

It was already nerfed. Norn stealth then dash used to be incredible, then they nerfed the speed of the dash and now it’s just ok. Such a shame norn necro looks so lame or else I would have kept him.

Yes dash get nerfed a 1/2 of year ago or some this time, when they change all charge skills (like charge with banners, golem, etc.). For now it looks like a dash stop on 20, 30% of the distance. I still have my norn female necro for this elite (norn female looks almost like a humans) but not use it last time (it dont help now to escape vs most pll with some mobility skills)

Still works great, but I still use Plague 90% of the time, mainly for pushing blinds to relieve some pressure and when you don’t really need it, pop it for stability for a stomp (which may seem a waste, but when you’re doing 1v2+ on a necro that first stomp really matters)

Holy cow, this just inspired me to make this build: http://gw2skills.net/editor/?fRMQNAW7Ylc0oxml3w7GcyNBuQB9AEARbkZwEQZbMGA-T1SAABKcBAo4gAQjuBpfAAQpkZLlQAcEAg2810KBvS5Q17Pq/QKAYWWB-w

with 100% condi duration and the amount of bleeds wolf 1 pumps out, you can get 25 stacks of bleeds in TWO seconds…. not to mention another fear (terror mancer ftw) that also can proc extra perplexity stacks.

Talk about a condi spike

Dump Hemophilia, Master of Terror, and the Sigil of Agony. 100% condition duration is the cap for everything, so those don’t do anything at all.
