I currently run a 30-10-0-0-30 power build on my necro with full zerker gear. After the ferocity update, I’m going to change it to 30-30-0-0-10. As the game is, I think a pure power build deals the best DPS in pretty much every PvE situation (PvE and rarely WvW is all I ever do). After crit damage is nerfed, will power necro still deal the best PvE damage for the most part, or will a hybrid gear swap build give me a sizeable upper edge? The “gear swap” part means that I have my zerker gear for power and can switch to carrion (my condi of choice). Suggestions for trinkets would be helpful, but I don’t want to be switching trinkets, I just want 1 set (zerker?carrion?rampager?rabid?dire?) that I can wear all the time.

I know that nothing about the anticipated “balance” update is set in stone, except that it’s happening. I would just like suggestions.

there was a thread like a week ago discussing possible hybrid builds…zerk will still be top dps after ferocity change…the nerf is 10% less dmg if i remember right, and zerk will still be more dmg than hybrid

Im 99% sure zerker will still be better for pve. But I will be checking things and updating my guide if needed when the big feature patch hits.
