Hi Guys!

I’m looking for some advice about WvW Necro build.
I’ve intrested about necro power build, but I saw that all of that ones had low toughness and health, so here my question: in WvW, could power necro build works even if I have low toughness and health?

I would run this one: http://gw2skills.net/editor/?fRAQNAW3djc00SbNNO2whbiahC66MAmho6AqnjwoaB-TFDBABCt/gvKBzR9nuUaokSsFMxhlyAAuAAecQAUR3AFPAAGOCAkCYUlRA-w
but I’m not totally sure…

Can anyone tells me anything about these builds?

It can work, especially so on lower servers or smaller groups where there is less random AOE around. But you need to focus on your positioning quite a bit. Very powerful when used properly, but very squishy when you’re lazy about where you are in comparison to the enemy and your allies.

You have high damage with the Death Shroud crit traits.

For running in a large group or a zerg, you seem a bit thin. Relatively low vitality due to trinkets, no stability from foot in the grave or plague form, no condition reduction food. But this can be easily tweaked to your comfort level.

For small groups you could be alright. The only thing is necros (along with rangers who have more ways to evade attacks) tend to get focused. On the other hand, you might kill them 1st!

edit: You do have stability from Lich Form but Plague offers blind (+ chill with chilling darkness) or weakness/cripple and is less obtrusive, while Lich tends to single you out for some reason.

You got 2 wells but nothing to make them stay in those Wells? In a zerg this would be fine but if you’re gonna roam I would reccomend taking dagger for the 4 sec immob. For the rest it’s pretty good. And i would classify rangers as more squishy because they don’t have a 20k life force bar

I have used this plenty of times in the past and it has worked out fine for me. Avoid the train and you should be fine.
