But we have a infinite amount of second health bar which synergyze well with life force generating Spectral skills and life siphon!

Every time I read the profession balance subforum someone brings that up and I roll my eyes.
If it’s so balanced to have ‘two lifebars’ then why am I asked to switch to my guard or sit out the fight?

I know.
That’s why I brought up the Profession Balance Forum because there are actually some players there that think DS is too powerful.

the main problem is that the necro design was carried over from gw1 where the necro was a party support multi-tool who did a little bit of everything and was very versatile. However with the gw2 combat system the multi-tool aspect becomes useless and the class is struggling to find a new identity. Anet is trying to find a way to give them a new role without fundamentally changing them.

I find it to be a different problem. They stripped most of what made the necromancer in guild wars one.
