Guild Wars 2

So i’m building a staff necro focus on burst like well of corruption, well of suffering etcc.. and there’s not a lot of condition damage skill on the staff except #2 which is a bleed and damage on bleed kinda suck, the poison is there for the healing, so i’m deciding whether to get carrion set or valk set. Should i put condition on my armor and traits?

if you’re focusing on burst then why are you even thinking about condition dmg?

na staff is perfectly viable for power builds also the mark of blood also gives you and your allies regen and frost is universal the auto atk damage aint that bad and transfer conditions is always a good thing.. oh yea fear is nice too !

Staff is actually more for control than dmg but if you want to get more dmg out of it I guess power would be a better bet even though I do not recomend it at all.

For staff i would recommend power, if you want to go conditions then the scepter/dagger is the way to go. The staff’s main attack also fills your death shroud bar enabling you to go into death shroud to use its main attack more often, which is obviously more powerful if you have more power. Marks themselves also do damage the moment its broken, where the damage increases if you have more power, and you can trait into spite (which improves power) to make marks do 10% more damage as well. Staff works very well with power builds, go for that!

If you want to use wells, for armor go Berserker with Emerald accessories.
