Guild Wars 2

Hi, Necromancer main here.

Just posting a suggestion for a trait change. Currently Spiteful Marks increases the damage of marks by 10%. Marks are mostly condition damage and utility, though, and this trait gives you barely any benefit at all. Further, Staff 1 is fairly weak for power builds. This means is that power-leaning necromancers have little options with regard to 1200 range DPS; the only option is to spam staff 1 and staff 4. (it has a reasonable nuke on it)

My suggestion is to replace Spiteful Marks with a trait that increases Life Blast’s range to 1200. This solves two problems. One, it makes the accumulated DS from spamming 1 in long range mexican standoff situations useful. Two, it gives non-condition damage necromancers a bit of love in the 1200 range department.

Thanks for reading.

Actually a really good suggestion. I agree.
