Anyone been experimenting with these yet?

I’m thinking 0/20/10/20/20 is the way to go, picking up well traits and the usual sceptre/staff combo for weapons.

I suppose the aim would be:

1) Get regenration up 24/7 with excess used while regen not available
2) Use Well of Blood for heal
3) Figure out the optimal rune set.

In terms of sigils, what do people think? This isn’t going to be a crit build, so I guess it’s Geomancy, life or some other non-crit based rune.

Hmm.

Sceptre/focus for the regen and boon strip, then staff…

Geomancy. Definitely geomancy.

What are u going to use tha build for? PvE, WvW, tPvP?

Why 20 in SR? Do u plan on taking terror and master of terror? or do u want to go with soul marks?

What stats do u plan on using on your gear? Which wells will u take? do u want them for dmg (WoS, WoC) or support (WoD, WoP)?

Could u post the core build that u have in mind? We need more info before we can make any suggestions…

Ideally, I’d like a build which will work for PvE and WvW.

Soul marks. Terror is useful, but MoT means no SM so that’s out.

Settlers.

Well of Blood, Well of Corruption, not sure baout ht eothers.

Also points in SR for the 15 point major trait.

BM needs the MoB on dodge, and the well cooldown. Well of Suffering is a bit moot, and I tend to keep the third utility slot for movement (WvW) or rez (PvE) or AoE (PvE events).

So WoC, WoP, WoB. That’ll make the well traits worth picking. Avoiding the 25 point talents cos I’ve got no crit and no power, so 100 power ain’t gonna help.

Terror, targeted wells in curses

Larger marks in DM (or prot from wells? that’s 9s of prot…)

MoB on dodge plus well CD from BM

DS ability cooldown and soulmarks. Or perhaps LF decay reduction and soulmarks. Depends how long you wanna stay in DS.

Then focus, sceptre, staff… with geomancy and sigil of corruption.

Question is though – what runes? Undead?

I’ve been using this in WvW.

Full settler’s gear.

I’m not particularly sure how I feel about this set though. The healing is nice on Well of Blood, but the healing power co-efficient on Consume Conditions isn’t high enough to justify its use with healing power I feel. Obviously it does nothing for siphons.

There is also the fact that Well of Blood is not zerg friendly. Commanders want fire fields and water fields. Drop this down in the middle of a fight and it will mess things up for people trying to blast finish for might or healing.

Stuff goes here.
