After about a 4 month break from the class I am looking to pick up the Necro again.

I ran S/D with Staff as my swap and I’d just gather up mobs,melt them down and move on. Is this still a good way to go? I know there have been a lot of changes in this amount of time so I wanted to check. If so what gear stats am I looking for?

I’m talking mostly PVE leveling. Once I hit 80 and want to do dungeons I might look into something else.

Yep, still good.

I main Ele and Necro, though I have an alt of each profession at level 80.

Everything I say is only in reference to PvE and WvW.

S/D and Staff will probably always be a good build.

0/30/0/0/30 putting the last 10 wherever (depends on build) is still a solid condition build, and 30/20/0/0/20 is also really strong. They are still the standard condition/hybrid builds that use staff and S/D

Hey take a look at this build i came up with and let me know what you guys think.

The focus here is on spreading Blindness, Chill, and Weakness coupled with good toughness for surviveability.

Then good conditions and bleeds to take down people.

I was also considering taking Terror and Master of Terror for some added damage (even after nerf its still good) and then i would swap out Corrosive Poison Cloud for Spectral Wall

Would look like this.

I think you need a good stunbreaker in there. CC warriors are everywhere these days.
