Hi all.
I was thinking about some “new” build for my necro for WvW, havent played for some time and decided to make a new build (as for me it is new). But I can miss some information about traits, skills and how they work now, so the idea is: post build here and with help of others understand can it work or it`s useless.
What I wanted:
-staff build
-condition oriented
-some survivability
-dhuumfire trait

What I get after some tries – http://gw2skills.net/editor/?fQAQNBmWDbkRLdvcTZjfPhIp4aeGoHvnuAiRKIGjB-TkAimUN5ay0ksJbTDCWVsFB

Now I have stats:
Power 1401
Tough 1754
Crit 50%
Con dmg 1284
20958 HP

I switch utility skills sometimes, often from Cloud to Epidemic\Spectral wall.
After a few hours testing in WvW cant say it is bad, but anyway have a feeling something may be missing.
If u need any other info – ask and I`ll answer here.
Apologize for my poor English

Only if staff autoattack wasn’t so pathetic (especially in condi build) and marks have lower cooldown

I have 50% crit chance. 19% – crt dmg.
Why I wanted to have Dhuum with staff is becouse of AoE procing from marks ^ ^

Def 20% crit chance, think maybe you gave the wrong link.

From the dhuumfire wiki page:
Notes
Only affects one target at each 10 second cycle, even if more than one target is hit with a critical hit.
In PvP, the burning only lasts for 2 seconds.

As an aside, you can spread it with epidemic, but epi has a 1s cast time. So even if you’re REALLY fast, best case scenario is you get a ~1s bleed on 5 targets every 10 sec in PVP. In PVE it’s a bit better, but really to trait and gear for Dhuumfire, IMHO requires a ton of condi duration to make it worth while.

Oh, I get that. So it is quite useless trait for PvP, unfortunatly. Anyway it seems the thing that I missed ^ ^
