Guild Wars 2

Hey all I am a returning player from well over a year ago and am looking to roll a new toon. I am posting here becauce obviously im interested in rollling a necro for solo pvp mainly.

My main question is for 1v1s and solo pvp, and I would like to roll a class that can not only heal a decent amount in pvp but provide some tankyness and decent condition damage etc. So that’s why I’m looking into the necro class.

Can this class if speced properly and geared right maintain a good amount of lifetaping heals to keep yourself alive during solo pvp compared to other classes, or is it mainly pointless to go that route. I’ve always enjoy playing classes with some utility and heals and other options.

If not are there any classes currently running around with the above description you may be able to recommend please.

Thank you guys for your help.

Hi and welcome back. First, please do remember that it takes maybe 5 mins between character creation and hopping into PVP with full gear so don’t be afraid to try new characters! Necros come with decent self sustain through shroud and if you trait for a very good team heals (here is an example of a build with AoE 7k heals: http://metabattle.com/wiki/Build:Necromancer_-_Settler%27s_Minion_Master)

That being said, you may enjoy rangers (druids) since that is a healing class, or Eles (tempest) as that is another team support build.

enjoy
