Guild Wars 2

is it me only that think that necros stab went from non to one of the most I play teef and I cant seem to cc them most of the time because of their 1) trait stab 2) pulsing stab at reaper 3) shout

I mean what meta build other than condi necro has 3 stabs like that other than rev " but that’s something else cause most are glassy while necro is bunker as balls" mixing that with the almost perma weakness it gives and converts, condi bombs, transfers and stuns etc
I am thinking that if they nerf they nerf slightly so the community doesn’t flip

If someone is running the traited stab they are giving up damage. The elite shout is on a 90 second cd and can be avoided (blinded) to give them no stab. The pulsing stab is good, but as a thief you should use your steal skill on it then you will have stab and they won’t.

Most people don’t run the traited stab, and the other two sources are necessary because Reaper’s aren’t that mobile, don’t have invluns and don’t have extra dodge rolls or blocks. Stab is one of the least OP things about reaper.

meta is the stab trait

Pretty sure meta is Dhuumfire right now.

Definitely not

Anyway, as a thief you can pretty much kill a necro by spamming headshot, which says really much about “necro stab balance”

As a reaper, stability is absolutely not overpowered. If you want to kill a reaper just kite them..

No it isn’t. It was okay trait pre-spec patch, but either other options outclass it now by a mile. It’s one of Shroud dancing traits that aren’t too amazing untill new E-spec supporting them shows up.

Nerf necro’s stab? You crazy..We’re already thrown around like a ping pong ball as it is when focused and we’re usually focused first most of the time and with our lack of mobility and blocks etc…not going to happen

Foot in the Grave is certainly not meta. Also, and I say this with all of the care in my heart that I can muster, if you are a Thief main and you can’t kill a Condition Reaper, then reroll.

Funny seeing teef qq about Necro…
