Guild Wars 2

That is a good point! I hadn’t considered water with a MM build. My condi build doesn’t seem to suffer much in water. I don’t spend a lot of time in water, but that would be a vulnerable spot in a MM build.

I think I’m going to stick with my Condition build, but drop the blood magic in favor of the Reaper. I’ll tweak it as I go.

This is my first ever post on these forums. The Necro has been my main ever since GW1. I mostly only PvE. Currently my build looks something like this: http://gw2skills.net/editor/?vREQNArdWn0ICV3gd3AO2Ac4gDchaO2NxSAHgAoFibdHMCA-TBSAABXqEUhTAA2K/i+IAIt+GrV/BgHBQP7PQKgFVWB-e

I’ve enjoyed it, but with my playstyle/build several aspects are severely under utilized namely Death Shroud & my Elite skill. My Condi damage from my weapons & utility skills are so effective that I never need them. I have soloed champs in the Silverwastes without ever using DS or my elite! It’s fun, but I’m looking to the Reaper for a build that would utilize more of the Necro’s mechanics.

I loved MMing in GW1 & made a MM Reaper in the beta that was ridiculously fun, but I also love “spreading the disease” with conditions. My question is in terms of HoT what do my fellow Necros like Condi Reaper or MM Reaper? Both builds seem viable, has anyone tried both? Which was more fun?
