Guild Wars 2

With conditions becoming theoretically viable in PvE now, has anyone worked out a good condition spec to try later today?

My initial thought was:

However the soul reaping line is kind of lackluster for conditions, as is the blood magic line. Soul reaping will be more useful once reaper is released, as will some of the chill traits, but right now what will people be taking other than curses?

Dhummfire is just sad, and not worth it at all, but I don’t know what to replace it with.
Blood magic supplies some much needed party support, but does nothing in particular for conditions.

I took MoC over terror since without the reaper chill on fear no one will let you use fear in PvE.

Thoughts?

I think choose Unyielding Blast will be better. And Spire still good because of the extra vun and the signet mastery.

That is going to be a tough choice once reaper is available… do you take spite for the vuln/chill or do you take Soul Reaping for the vuln and fear/burn?

I guess for now i’m just in a holding pattern until reaper is out… A second look at spite seems like it might be worth it over soul reaping atm. or take SR and Spite depending on the viability of the group support from BM.

Why should anyone want a PvE condi Necro if they can have a PvE condi Engi?

Anet’s master plan its transfer a lot of the necro community to the eng. We just dont get this yet.

Well if so then they should make a “change class item” so i can turn my lvl 80 necro into a lvl 80 engi please. (I’m kidding, I won’t change my necro…not even with that bullkitten they are pulling).

Seems pretty solid, i’d only change terror for MoC so you can transfer back some torment stacks and reduce cd on 3 of your skills and Soul Reaping line kinda meeh for that but we don’t have another choice.

Maybe i choose change “rending shroud” over “chill of death”. I was using Rune of the Noble, but now CC get more 33% cd. I’ll try krait probabily, now cond duration its realy good.

For pve krait seems a better choice, so maybe we can break the 25 bleed stacks mark. Your party will proving all the might you’ll need anyway. I think rending shroud is superior than chill of death because constant vulnerability while you in shroud applying burning over a couple seconds chill, boon removal is meh for pve and around 1kish dmg.

Good suggestions guys, I’ll try them today.
