Guild Wars 2

Hi !
Don`t you think that necro should get new weapon or weapon skills rebuild . Staff is good and scepter /dagger is wonderfull for condi necro. But other weapons just suck .

A nice power based axe offhand or something would be nice, and a power weapon with 1200 range would be nice too, hammer perhaps?

Ever play Heroes of Might and Magic VI? Vampire Lords. That is all.

All I have to say is there are 2 Necros in game that have Greatsword and Hammer. I’m sure in the future we will be able to use a GS. Having more weapons is a lot of fun. Which is why Necro and Warrior are my most favorite classes.

Scythe for me please.

I really hope for greatsword with 1200 range because staff is quite boring . But still something on necro there are maybe 2 usefull builds .

I’d bump axe up to a 1200 range weapon and if greatsword were added make it a melee cleaving type weapon.

I would prefer shooting Great Sword as another distance weapon . Axe is good but I prefer scep/dag

Mace mace mace mace mace

Edit: Hammer could work if you want to add a two-handed weapon instead. But I think mace could be an interesting choice and a weapon you don’t see on that many classes.

I would like to see Greatsword as a Vampiric weapon, with a teleport for distance closer.

Axe with more range and cleave. Should be perfect in builds without staff

I like the mace idea. A nasty spiked mace would fit a necro nicely.

I just don’t see greatsword as necro-ey. Besides, if we got a greatsword, you know we’d end up with one of the skills being called Hundred Bleeds, which would be 75 2-sec bleeds (25 on up to three targets) and the last 25 on us, plus a 3 sec self-daze because we’d get dizzy from spinning around.

Scepter/Dagger combo and Staff are good, but the other weapons aren’t bad either.

Focus is very good! Warhorn is… okay.
Zerker builds tend to use Axe.
Axe is probably the weakest Necro weapon but it’s quite nice.

Dagger mainhand is my favorite Necro weapon.
It deals high damage, has a decent channeling skill and a long duration Immobilize.

There are many weapons I’d like to see in the future.
Scythe (I can wish :P), Greatsword or a Hammer for AoE melee damage.

A 1200 range power weapon with a good auto-attack.
Rifle sounds weird, but it could work… As could Great Sword.
(Or even crazier: Using a hammer as ranged weapon by pounding the ground and causing undead hands to emerge from the ground near the target.)

A Torch. Burning + Epidemic = fun times!
Also maybe set yourself on fire and use Well of Power for Aegis anywhere.
Make the flames from the skills green and it fits right in Necro’s theme.

My weapon sets are Dagger/Focus (mostly for soloing: decent melee damage, vampire health, and some nice conditions) and Staff (mostly for party: good conditions, nice ranged damage)
