weapon dmg no lnger matters?
If you use the Reaper Shroud, there’s no difference between any weapon you’re using.
If you use the Death Shroud, the weapon you’re holding influence your damage.
We’re asking for a fix in the DS from years but no one listen. ANet chose to put a lot of the basic fixes that the necromancer need into the Reaper, making it the only viable version of Necromancer in sPvP and PvE. Only in WvWvW the AoE power damage of the basic Necromancer is highly apreciated in zergs.
Well reaper shroud did this from the beginning (i think it uses an exotic hammer as weapon dmg). Only death shroud used your equiped weapon but if it was changed for death shroud i would call it good. Our shroud should not depend on the weapontype we have equipped for damage.
However it maybe should depend on the rarity of the weapon to ensure compareble damage.
