Guild Wars 2

Hello all, here is a build I put together that has been more than successful at both supporting my zerg and keeping me alive. I maintain around 34k HP, 2500 Armor, 2000 Power and 45% crit chance while in WvW. It utilizes condition removal and boon strip while also being able to heal my back liners who might not be able to make it to the water drop. Please let me know what you think and try it out! I am still working on getting my ascended armor and axe/warhorn, but exotic is still perfectly awesome in my book!

The 9 skill slot is open to preference. I tend to run either Well Of Darkness or Spectral Wall. Well of Blood + Well of Power make a more effective and AoE version of Consume Conditions which is my new favorite combo on a necro. Putrid Mark is a personal condition removal that i use when I have more conditions than I can count on me, pretty self explanatory. Well of Corruption and Lich Form: Grim Specter are awesome boon strips (if you use Spectral Wall and Well of Corruption at the same time you can really mess up an enemy zerg). Timing on weapon swapping is super important to get your sigil proc and also the retaliation from Unholy Feast is wicked in the middle of a zerg if u pop it before Death Shroud. Lastly, never ever ever ever ever ever hesitate to use Death Shroud. With this build you want to use Life Transfer as many times as you can for the heals and Condi Removal when you’re in Death Shroud.
All Builds take practice and a littler personal customization. Hope this is a fun build for some of you!! Happy Hunting!

I’m not a pro necro or something, but i’ve been using almost this same build (nowadays with more damage tho), only for pve (temples, world events, orr farming) and i love it. I haven’t tried it in wvw yet, but that’s only because i suffer from severe lag in zergs (yes, in pve too, but in wvw it’s usually much more lethal)
I use exactly the same traits in Blood magic, the one in Curses, and Path of midnight too in soul reaping, but nowadays the rest of my points are in Spite for more damage. Utilities are all wells for me too, but i use well of suffering, well of corruption and only switch the third well between WoP and WoD according to the situation. Though i feel WoD to be a bit lackluster compared to a thief’s pistol #5 which can be dropped much more frequently and kinda just perma-blind…. anyway, i often saw these wells work very well in zergs, especially at orr temple events where lots of mobs come at us, and dropping Well of blood and Well of darkness under people’s feet can really take some pressure off them, plus i pop into death shroud and heal them a bit more with transfusion… it might not be the best support or healing, but i’ve certainly seen it save lives and i like the build :P

Seems very interesting, I love having more than 30k HP. Didn’t think of the well of corruption/spectral wall combo, but will try it out against an enemy Zerg.
