Guild Wars 2

So with the revenant lifesteal out of the box it feels like anet doesn’t care about necro anymore unless you spec into healingpower you can’t get more personal lifesteal/hit on necro our lifesteal numbers are lower then revenants baseline plus with the 1sec ICD Assasin’s Annihilation and staying behind/side of a target is not that big of a limiter, the only thing that’s remotely unique about necro is multiple fear’s witch is not even effective in PvE

i’ve mained necro since headstart for once i’d like to feel like we’re getting something nice and not just relentless nerfs

Necro Life Steal: Signet of Vampirism + Blood Minor Trait 1 (only affects player) + Lesser Signet of Vampirism (Blood Adept Trait) + Vampiric Aura (Blood Master trait) + Well Life Siphon (Blood GM trait)

Revenant Life Steal: Enchanted Daggers (only affects player) + Devastation Minor Trait 3 (only affects player) + Devastation GM trait (only when attacking from flank/rear and only affects player)

So, that’s BS. Necro has MUCH more access to lifesteal and a good portion of it affects the party where as it’s an offensive survival mechanism for Shiro Revenants.

Devastation GM trait only works when attacking from flank. Also other 2 GM traits are too good to pick life steal.

Don’t forget Invigorating Howl and Steadfast Rejuvenation

Revenants are going to have the ability to have a LOT of incoming healing, that’s for sure.
