Regarding your gameplay, it seems to me you’re not doing enough of one thing to contribute enough (I guess that’s the life of most Necros, myself included sometimes). Direct damage is decent (2-3k on your Axe chain), Condition damage is okay (94 per bleed tick), but it seems like this version of the hybrid doesnt quite cut it. Have you considered going full power or conditions? I use a hybrid build focusing on conditions but my DS still can hit for 1k on #1 (on >50% LF) while waiting for cooldowns. 1k is not a lot, but it can be enough to force the enemy to heal when I’m in DS, saving my #3 to interrupt, thereafter unloading all my baggage on him.

Some tips, if I may:
1. Use terrain and LOS – especially in that fight against the ranger and guardian.
2. At 5:24, there is a stealth stomp going off on the downed guy. You could’ve saved his kitten with Staff #5, which was off cooldown.
3. I don’t use my Staff #5 at all, unless it’s one of the following: a) Enemies at the edge of a ledge, b) I’m being chased and I need some space, c) Fearing a thief out of Subterfuge (EARLY), d) Stopping a stealth stomp, or e) Delaying an enemy res.

I’m not pro or anything, it’s just my experience in WvW! Otherwise it’s an enjoyable video, great job!

Edit: It’s easy to judge a battle on hindsight, but the clues to #2 were – a) presence of a thief, b) blinding smoke, c) downed opponent. If CnD is used, you’ll still see black wisps.
