Guild Wars 2

Lately I’ve been checking out my death log in pvp more frequently because eles and guardians inflict rediculous amounts of burning damage and it’s fun (or sad) to see those high numbers.
Why am I posting this on the necro forum? I’m pretty sure the highest of burns are recorded in the death breakdowns of necros because their primary defense is face-tanking!
So I’m asking the community: What’s your burning high score?

I can only present a humble ~61k, screenshot taken today, most of it came from a guardian. And in this match I was using a rampager amulet, so I’m sure a lot of you will be able to surpass this number if you have more vitality in your build than I did.

Thief only has ~17k HP and you can take 60k of damage?

I think it is time to nerf you.

I’m pretty sure that he died from that, it is his death recap. And I’m not entierly sure if you are sarcastic or not so I’ll refrain from writing a long list of why we shouldn’t nerf Necro.

I did get 80k once but that screenshot didn’t get saved apparently

Had a 62,5k burn 18k bleed death log few days ago, I know I should’ve screencapped it…

You guys are lucky. If they were serious when setting you on fire, you wouldn’t last very long. Below is what 13k-16k ticks looks like. Dead in almost 3 seconds. Had I’d gone the distance and survived for 9 seconds, they would have been on pace for dealing 111k-144k burn damage.

Actully you should propably look for the highest burns elsewhere… maybe at someone that was stupid enough to load a Necro full of burning and got it send back into their face and then died from it.

I think I win….
This happened this morning with 1 vs 1 guardian on close. I started to fight him and all of sudden I was on downed

Siva Mira.3546:

It was a long-ish fight, in that time after several heals even a thief could’ve taken more than their total hp. Besides, thieves would’ve evaded most of it in the first place.

But in that case the damage ticks wouldn’t be higher and the opponent would die faster because they don’t have the same hp+lf-pool as a necro to soak it all up.
You are of course welcome to prove me wrong, but I really doubt you’ll find higher burn numbers in the death breakdown of other classes.

Nice ^^
You have the lead for now anyway.

Did somebody said highest burn ever?

Impractical but fun nonetheless lol

I think burn needs a nerf… Some of the other condis could use some love, like all of the ones Necros use.

I’m seeing a lot of poor condi transfer in this thread… -_-

48510 : 14 = 3465 on average. Where do you see 13-16k tcks there?

I don’t think 13-16k is even possible in pvp. Surely not in spvp.

Yeah, because high dmg means bad transfers? Wrong, quite the opposite actually, you can’t survive long enough to get these numbers without cleansing.

NICENIKESHOE.7128:

93 stacks? :o
The death breakdown probably didn’t have a high number because it was just a guardian’s hp gone in 1 sec. But wow…

I think the burning nerf is just a matter of time.

It’s sad btw how our Mark of Blood got a standard 2 stacks of bleeding in all game modes, which wouldn’t have been a big deal with the originally proposed 7.5% scaling. But when the June patch actually went live the bleeding dmg formula was changed to be a lot weaker. And on top of that Barbed Precision’s proc chance was cut in half.
Basically, the only reason our bleeding dmg isn’t total weak sauce compared to before is because we can combine it with vuln stacking.

Meanwhile in op-land: eles can easily ramp up 1-2k burn ticks with a celestial amulet.

44k burn in 11 ticks, and that was from 1 Engineer.

yeah… 100k. It was against a ratsquad(prolly using TS). who chain CC’d me the first time, used an engi and mesmer moa on me the 2nd encounter, then this. And before anyone trashes me for not transferring this was vs multiple and I was in plague, and i had already used my CD’s

It is very possible in spvp. Like I said, if they were serious, you will eat those kinds of burn ticks. The time-to-kill was less than 3 seconds.

So, um. Yep. Anyone can beat this? lol.

I think what’s more telling is how much dmg burn did in 90ish hits compared to how much dmg bleed did in 88 hits….

Ya. It’s definitely a dramatic difference.

I got attacked by 2 guards once. I saw burn appear on my bar, I cast dagger 4, I was dead before it reached them.

I should have taken kitten , it was pretty dumb…

Incredible.
The difference is even bigger in MAN’s screenshot:
62 burn, 54 bleed ticks – 103 vs 6.5k.

The 153 vamp aura hits are impressive too btw.
