Guild Wars 2

So, I checked out Reaper and now I want to level a Necro Looks like a lot of fun.

Been playing around with builds for it and I really like the tons of vulnerability stacking so I came up with this one, thoughts? So, this would be for PvE pretty much…

Gear (the staff would be a GS) and the missing skill would be “YAAW” or “NCSY”. That combo’d with Soul Spiral will be epic.

Traits would be;
Spite – Reaper’s Might, Death Shiver, Close to Death. Soul Reaping – Unyielding Blast, Vital Persistance, Death Perception. Reaper – Chilling Nova, Decimate Defenses, Reaper’s Onslaught.

Was a toss up for me between stacking so much vulnerability or might as they can do either so well, might stacking with Blighter’s Boon would also be amazingly good.

Can’t wait to try it out.. Gotta level a Necro though now lol.

Deathly shiver and unyielding blast will max out vulnerability. Chilling Force and Reapers might will max out might.

I was hesitant to use Chilling Force because I went with Valk gear and wanted Decimate Defenses for the crit chance, since it would be quite high, over 80% when in shroud. Bitter Chill can totally be dropped for Reaper’s Might. I’ll change the OP to reflect that.

Actually Reaper doesn’t really stack vuln all that much, it simply provides good access to chill and a reason to stay in DS, so it allows Spite’s vuln stacking to max out.

Using Death Perception and Decimate Defenses opens up the possibility of using Valkyrie and Cavalier gear without much dps loss, which will make you pretty tanky.

If you use berserker gear or anything that gets you close to 50% crit there’s no point in taking both Decimate Defenses and Death Perception. You’re probably better off with Dhuumfire than Death Perception in that case. Your burns should hit pretty hard with all the might you’ll get.
