Guild Wars 2

hello everyone I’m in search of a commander to build the WVW, I’m still in doubt which class should I follow, which is actually more useful between necro, mesmer and war
you guys could help me with a build?

I’m a commander and I play a necro (and only a necro). However, it’s not the profession that makes the commander. That said, I’d suggest assessing what you want to do as a commander. For example, if you want to make it easy on yourself to gain the benefits of mesmer portals in WvWvW, then playing as a mesmer commander might be ideal for you. Then you’re not having to work as hard trying to coordinate portal bombs or portaling players inside a keep.

As a necro, I’d say the advantage it offers is giving you high survivability. This allows you to take a lot of damage while in the heat of a battle while typing commands or otherwise communicating your intentions to those who are following you, for example.

I agree with you perfectly friend, who does command us in the same;)
I was thinking of doing a build of cond. to the commander for more necro do not know if it would be a really optimal, could help me in this matter? build me indicating some

0/20/30/20/0 power build with knights/soldiers and ruby orbs. Staff with fire sigil for aoe pressure and axe/x on offhand for retaliation stacking and bloodlust sigil. Chilling darkness/wells ground targeted or spectral attunement/wells protection/traited marks/staff reduction/ transfusion or 50% siphon increase/ well reduction 20%. Take the healing well, 2 wells of your choice (3 wells total) and spectral wall if you use spectral attunement over well ground target. If you prefer taking wells ground target run 4 wells. Always take Plague!
The beauty is you can swap spectral attunement + spectrall wall for wells ground target + another well and it plays like a whole different build. Each has its strengths. Wells ground target is great for ranging. But if you want to lead your troops right into them then you can spectral wall (give your whole squad about 9 seconds of protection), charge, drop wells (giving more protection all around), get off axe 3 for about 15-20 seconds of retal, and then get into plague. You will have around 35k hp, 6k armor, spammable aoe blind/chill, about 100% protection/retaliation (Each enemy that hits you will take 300 damage) time in Plague. You will be a moving tank that can charge into the zerg when you want to be. You also have great range capabilites and pressure with staff which procs the fire sigil as well for about 1000 AoE damage.

I have commanded with this build and it allows me to have great flexibility which is important as a commander. Hope this helps!

ok very good friend I will test it soon and I’m anxious to see how it works
and not wanting to abuse what you use to tPvP?

you could use the ?

I think most commanders should run full P/V/T gear and be as defensive as possible. Its not your damage that’s going to win fights, it’s your leadership. You have to be able to go where ever your need your zerg to go, we act as sheep after all :-) One of the worst things that can happen to a zerg is if the commander dies.

That being said, necros can be super durable so you might be able/want to add in so other damaging stats.

Remember you can swap knights and soldiers as you feel it fits your needs. You can also swap out spectral wall/spectral attunement trait for another well/ground target wells trait.

For tournaments there are multiple builds.
Khalifa’s powermancer is good: https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/professions/necromancer/Khalifa-s-PVP-D-D-Necro-Build-Updated/first

Look around the forums and you should find plenty of good tournament builds.

thank you friend, thank you very
a big hug =)

What torqky said,beeing a necromancer commander you need to be durable and provide an advantage on your team.
The enemy will target you first as soon as they see the com icon,not to mention that beeing a necromancer doubles that aggro.
I preffer 10/0/30/30/0 and axe and warhorn to cut down enemy mobility and plague around them.

hello back, and loved to build torqky
I am wanting to use staff, ax / war but how should usalo and when?
I think it will be a good necromancer comander? and to build spvp this work?
