Guild Wars 2

It’s because of this and:

BlackTruth.6813:

Because playing as a DPS takes actual skill. Not like Power Necro, Ranger or Guardian with their infinite evades and instant cast offense and defense.

So basically Necromancers get an infinite supply of a useless mechanic!

I swear, if I had infinite dodges I’d actually be on level with other classes in PvP. :P

That’s like saying a thief won’t interrupt you with pistol 4 over and over…

“Dodge useless in PvE”

Let me know how you do avoiding lupi’s maggot attack without dodging.

Let me know how you do against berserker abomination that does the really fast AoE slam.

Whoever made that thread doesn’t seem to understand the concept of invulnerability frames.

Dodge is a DPS loss ;d

You are losing a lot more DPS by bringing a necromancer :p

Ok since dodge is’nt useless, what’s the REAL reason why necro are useless?(back on topic) You can say that in pve our debuf is useless in 80% of situations vs mobs/bosses.

Offense based on conditions where everyone knows condition stacking is an issue in pve,offensive based on selfish might stacking using a projectile,tank based defensive where dodge exist,dodge based defense and not evasive or block ,lack of active recovery like ele SoR,thief’s IP or SoM AKA damage from siphon sucks etc. Wanna add suit yourself.

Not useless but you can role play trinity with him, just remember not to heal him while he’s tanking. Hell I just realized they buffed IP frequently since it’s arrival went from 5% to 15% while siphon are well… I laughed at the SoV changes.

Necromancer is fine… lol
