Guild Wars 2

Question time

I play a 0/30/20/20/0 Sword/dagger Thief , my crit chance is usually up to 60%-65%.

Should i use Omnomberry ghosts? I mean, are they worth it or just too weak for a build which is glass?

Looking forward to read your answers

Omnomberry Ghosts are okay.

They won’t keep you alive on their own, but they do add some decent health and damage with a high crit build.

If procing every second it will do up to 341 DPS and HPS where the damage is unaffected by armour.

It’s not as strong as before the nerf (Where there was no internal cooldown so multi-hits could all proc them and skills could heal 10k+ per activation as well as adding that much damage) but they’re still usable.

Omnom Ghosts suck now that they have an internal cool-down, due the whiners that are destroying the game.

You can still get a bit of healing and damage bonus every second or so but they are far far weaker than they used to be, you’d most likely gain more by using food to up your damage further statically instead

I still use them sometimes. You can’t rely on them (you never should have, that is why they were nerfed and deserved it), but they are nice to supplement your long-term survival.

steal life isnt extra dmg. just heals you that part :P so if every hit you do does 1000 dmg and then you pop a ghost….now you steal 200 life per hit too….you still do 1000 dmg but get healig200 hp. i COULD be wrong but long time ago this is how everyone explained it to me!

No it does the damage as well, if your doing 1000 damage a hit and you proc the life steal on crit effect of the omnom ghost/pie you will do 1000 damage + 200 damage from proc and gain 200 health.

they are decent
comparation :
mango pie wich can provide you 70 hp /sec = 2100 -30 sec
hide in shadows – 6000 /sec
omnomberry pie /ghost 325 /2 sec – 4875/ sec if you use them at maximum potential

4875 a sec from omnom pie? wtf?

that would be 4875 over 30 seconds they missed out the 30 in the last 2.

Though the omnom pie cooldown is 1 second not 2 so if you managed to trigger it every second you’d get 9750 healing + damage over that 30 seconds, though with only a 66% chance on crit your unlikely to hit it every cooldown.

Mango pie is 85hp/sec
Basicly I use only health regen food (either mango pie on offtanks or omnomberry on high-crit proffessions). Omnomberry ghost is pretty good, you can’t really complain on that and with your critical chance sure it’s work using. You should give it a try and decide yourself.

is the internal cool down 1-2 secs because i am hearing 5 seconds in game

1sec referring to GW2 wiki.
With my over 50% critical chance and pressure attack it’s around 330hp every 2 sec.

if your running 0/30/20/20/0, instead of the real 30/30/0/0/10 build, and still have problems surviving…

Then you need to work on your playstyle.
