It died in PvE a long time ago when the zerker or gtfo consensus came. It died in PvP when Anet gave out condition removals like candy instead of just nerfing necros/engies :/

IMO the closest way to make any sort of deathblossom build viable is somekind of a hybrid/celestial dd and sb build.

It still works in certain situations. A P/d d/d build still allows it but the mainstay is the p/d and you have to pick the time and place to unicorn.

As example it works great flipping camps in WvW. It works in areas with chokepoints where there restricted areas to move like the lords room in castles…stairs or bridges or if you want to get people off siege rams at your towers gates.

It can be effective if someone downed and there people trying to rez from an SR but again it very situational.

It not too viable in open field battles a 1v1 or battles where there only a few aside where there a lot of fluidity in movement.

What I tend to do if I want to go to this style is reset my util bar just prior to entering a battle. I would not build around it.

Eh alright thanks, I missed that build :[

Guess ill stick around wvw, found a cool build using shortbow and venom aura. Support obv but I like the idea of EVERYONE all of a sudden getting crazy amounts of control.
