Guild Wars 2

What are our reaper shroud skills underwater?

No seriously, i want to know, are we keeping the current edition of death shroud underwater? or are we getting something totally new, Necromancers are known to be a menance underwater, and i like the current DS version, it’s honestly the strongest profession mechanic underwater

Here’s a fun idea so DS is on par with RS on ground, The AoE “wave” fear from underwater DS on land to replace terror, it does 2-3k damage and aoe fears in a frontal wave, it’s pretty nice, although doom is currently really good, looks to be a question of instant vs cast with a better effect, thought i’d plug it here.
Thoughts?

It has been asked. There is no answer, yet.

Given that underwater combat has been officially abandoned, I doubt they spent any development time on it. So my guess is a clone of current underwater abilities.

Has underwater combat been officially abandoned? Really? It’s fun… I wish they would just keep underwater combat for non-competitive/pro-focused pvp. Underwater combat is fine for unranked pvp and WvW and PvE isn’kitten

Its not like the new DS skills cant be made into direct underwater copies. They are actually quite similar to existing trident and spear skills. And i expect them to do this.

Even if they dont want to develop underwater combat further. It still exists in large parts of existing open world maps and some dungeon and fractal content. They cant completely stop supporting it.

Or could be that we revert back to death shroud underwater….

wanna bet xd

Ele might be able to out-do Necro underwater, but a lot of that damage is from stationary effects that take time to work and are easily avoidable underwater. Necros are the PvP gods underwater and do quite well in PvE as well.

soo…anyone done some underwater pvp lately?

A bit in WvW. No other option to.
