Guild Wars 2

Hello Everyone!

Here is a generell topic about Power necros in Spvp/ Tpvp. Im using this power necro build for 2 days now ( http://gw2skills.net/editor/?fRAQNBmQDbkjmWarpx4GOcTcLUQHADwLEVGQ9bkGRLA-TJBFwACuIA12foaZAAPBAA ). I guess this is meta.
I need some generell tipps for this, besides not stand in the middle of teamfights.

- What is strongest rotation in lich form?

- What is best utility, spectral walk or spectral armor?

- Change Sigil?

- – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – -

And here are the thoughts about the new trait line systhem and reaper in combination with power nercro.

Since Wells ground target gets borderline, we dont need the curse line anymore. however we can still use it to maxemice dmg output. Also the warhorn traid is in curses, reduced rechargtime and longer swarm is very strong.
The option is death magic, for more substain and bigger marks and unblockable marks.

at least reaper could also nice synergies with power necro’s spite and soul reaping traitline. but reaper shroud forces us to join the enemy in meele and thats not very good.

whats your thougths about all this? Pls all your tipps about power nerco in sPvP.

I’d be inclined to replace the trait Death’s Embrace with Reaper’s Might .
And strongly recommend switching out one of the air sigils for energy.. that could be your life saver.

As to the spectral utilities, I’m favouring spectral armor at the moment. As Necros, we’re just focused way to often!

Lich Form? 111111111111 shirley!
Joking aside.. Deathly Claws is the one that gives you the highest damage … but … skill 5 Grim Specter is a huge lifesaver .. massive boon strip and massive condi clear if it hits.

When I’m not in ‘see red berskerer’ mode, I’ll usually start with (3) Chilling Wind to slow them down, followed by (2) Marked for Death for the 8 stacks of vuln, then 1, 1, 1, 1, 1… till downed.

Okay, thx for the fast answer!

On Warharn/dagger ill switch air with energy, bc staff is for ds and loosing the bonus dmg on crit is smt i dont wanna loose.

okay spectral armor. doesnt it disapear the time i enter ds or will it stay? if it stays, it would be awsome.

the dmg while downed also helps me getting up with 1, and atm im often down.. it feels stronger than might on ds1 since im not using hoelbrak runes anyway

thx for the lich rotation! im just smashing all cooldwons on lich till only 1 is vailable till know :s i hope nit will improve my gameplay

I would advise going the other way with your sigils. The staff and DS do not hit enough times to get the air/fire procs off regularly. Staff is better when you need to make space, where the energy sigil is better.

1 – Just press 1 till the end. If you see a target full with boons, use skill 5, that will help out your team by a lot. Save skill 3 if someone is going for stomp or ress.

2- For powernecro i rather use spectral armor. Give you a nice protection uptime and regenerate a lot of life force and your strongest point is death shroud.

3- I use sigil of rage on my dagger along with sigil of air. Can setup some nice burst after dagger #3 skill followed by wells.

Tips:

Position yourself really well or you’ll get focused and have no place to run.

But you need Death’s Embrace beacuse you’ll be downed a lot, and it lets you win 1v3 downstate wars with 50% boosted passive procs!

Try this, if you do it right you can proC 5 total hits when they get to 50% health. Almost like insta death. if your gonna use this build in a 1v1 switch to blood sigils

I’d like to throw in some more support for Spectral Walk/Wurm over armor, a lot of times with armor you still can’t escape and just last a couple more seconds, whereas the extra mobility from the first 2 allows you to flat out avoid hits/rotate better.

Armor is still great, I’m just surprised it’s used so heavily over the others.

i use it because id rather stay in the fight then have to run. just dont rotate somewhere your gonna get jumped alone.

1) 1111111 in lich form
2) For Swalk vs. Sarmor it really does depend. If you are up against a power heavy comp and you know you will get focused 24/7 take Sarmor. If you know juke spots, have a good understanding of maps and know you will be able to move around a bit use Swalk.
(I personally like Swalk better because of no fall dmg and wurm stomps. ALSO life force should never be an issue on power necro since LF on AA)
3) Take an energy sigil

other tips:
Use locust swarm in Lich to clear blinds.
Avoid fall dmg with Swalk (double tap)
Dark Path > Doom to close the gap
Dark Path > Dark Pact > wells for surprise burst
Sarmor in DS is invuln pretty much
Use wells on downed
Spam LB to be successful
:D

Hope this helped!
