Guild Wars 2

Hi guys!
Jake Demoni here with a new version of the power necro we all know and love (or hate) without any further ado, here is the link: http://gw2skills.net/editor/?vRAQNBIhZakjGapxaawzG4wxBuQNH7ToKopRb8swrOAWAA-TZBFABiXGohDBADnAgS2fAgnAAA .

You’ll see that I’ve done a couple of small changes that I think really brings the build up by a few levels of play. I replaced Spectral Armour for Plague signet, This allows a direct ability to combat condition based rangers or guardians, along with putrid mark. It is also a traited 24 sec stun-breaker, which is almost half the time of spectral Armour.

On the traits side of things, I changed 3 things:
I changed spite 1 into bitter chill, as well as added an hydromancy sigil on the d/w so that each weapon set (staff, d/w, ds) can benefit from this trait. (dagger is reeeeeeeealy nice with 4 stacks on vuln on the target when you START attacking)
I changed Spite 3 into signets of suffering, rather than the flat 20% damage under 50%. This allows some interesting counter play instead of direct damage(same reason for marauder instead of zerker), which I’ll discuss later.
Finally, I changed Blood 1 into Blood Bond. This combos with signets of suffering rather nicely, allowing you to simple mark, dodge roll and corrupt two boons. Followed with plague signet, will give you a good change of corrupting stab or retail.

Tell me what you guys think!

I think I need to see some footage to get a feel for this.

Yo Jake Demoni, I fought with/against you in ranked several times last night, and I’ll say that you’re lich plays were quite impressive!

I was the necromancer (Near Light) that ran minions, and other random hybrid support experimental builds that sucked a bunch of times, and I was queueing with a burn engi friend whose burns you probably used to kill my team

But yeah, you’re a solid player man! Although wells aren’t really my playstyle at all, as I pretty much take flesh wurm as gtfo button on every build I have.

Giving up closer to death seems strange considering you are running Wells and only one signet.

I like new builds, I would be interested in seeing how this one plays.

Well done for trying something different as well. Too many people just do the norm.
