WvW Viper Necro Roaming [Video]
sweet stuff. I haven’t tried a viper build yet (really like my minions :-) ) What are the tough builds to beat with this or the counters?
Also, a lot of the players in your vid seemed pretty dumb. Do you find 1v1’s more equal when playing better players, or do you still think it swings in your favor with that build?

This is just my opinion about the build so bear in mind people might disagree.
The build in a strictly, is this even close to the best necro WvW roaming build sense, sucks. You are playing a class which has minimal true evasive abilities and few options for defense (outside DS/RS and good kiting/positioning) and you are taking close to no defensive stats on the armor/weapons. I firmly believe that any player who can pull of this build in WvW in roaming can certainly play any necro build well and also could probably do extremely well with any meta build out there.
On that note, the biggest positive of the build is that it does some damage. And by some I mean categorically insane amounts of damage.
The worst matchups for this build are warrior and thief. If either of these two know what they’re doing you have to really know what you’re doing to last a decent amount of time.
The best matchups are probably other reapers and scrappers. You have enough condi transfer to mess up other reapers and you have the boon corrupt and damage to cut through scrapper sustain.
With regards to better players giving closer matchups, yes definitely. It depends on the player I am up against if they can address and counter the strongsuit of the build before I cut through their defenses. Few opponents are able to do this however. The mean fact I have clips on clips of 1v3+ indicates that it is fairly rare. Additionally since I don’t really seek out 1v1’s in a more formal sense, most of my 1v1s involve additional factors like who got the jump and terrain usage add to this the simple truth that few players even want to 1v1 instead of having buddies pile on makes it difficult to say what 1v1s look like truly. However, I can count on my hand the number of 1v1’s I lost while roaming this past weekend.
In no way do I believe this build tilts any particular matchup in your favor more than a more tradition (tankier) WvW roaming necro.

Another video is out. Included a fair chunk of TS just to have it be something different.
