Guild Wars 2

Hey everyone, new to the forums here but just had a question about the signet of undeath. I am only in the 40s right now and have not yet done a dungeon with my Necro (have done them with my 80 warrior) but it seems like the active effect of this signet (revive 3 allies in target area) is pretty powerful.

Was just wondering what people´s thoughts on this are. I guess if you have good strategy there should not be as much need to revive but at least in my experience, there are a hell of a lot of deaths in dungeons if you dont have an experienced team.

It’s very awesome. Passive Life Force + AoE Rez? Absolutely! I sometimes end up slotting it in WvW just to bring some extra defense for both my group and myself.

I dislike the long cooldown, but I understand it because it’s a very good skill.

I found it very useful from time to time. For example some benefits are that you can use it while moving, so you can easily revive allies while avoiding dangerous areas, as it already been said, you can revive up to 3 allies and range of signet can revive allies without you risking getting close and getting yourself in danger. There are some downsides to that – first of all huge cd, second small radius of revival, your allies have to be hear each other so you can revive them all. That said at first I was skeptical about this signet, and still won`t use it anywhere besides the dungeons, but in dungeons it was a lifesaver from total wipe quite a few times.

I put 10 points into Spite just to get Signet Mastery’s 20% off CD, just for this Signet.

When I don’t need it for party support, I switch to Reaper’s Might for some extra damage in DS.

Does ritual of life work with it? It would be awesome if you could get ranged revive plus extra healing

yeah it does. if iyou mean revive an ally and put a well of healing on them yea there’ll be a well.

So, there will be 3 wells if you revive 3 allies?

That’s a good question! Why don’t you try it and see!

If I had to guess it wouldn’t surprise me of the revive trait only worked in instances where you bend down and revive someone, or that there would be a short internal cooldown for activating it.

It’s a good one. It’s not in my regular rotation for utilities but when Epidemic or Well of Suffering isn’t going to cut it for a tough encounter, it’s a great one to bring along to pick up an ally or two in trouble when they may need it most.

1 well that revives until 3 allies inside it.
