WvW build & PoV videos like Yishi's?

in Thief

Posted by: Avalanzhe.5761

Avalanzhe.5761

I just started to play my thief, and I saw Yishi’s videos which really inspired me to play a thief.

What I want is a thief that can burst down those backline fighters and those that got separated from the enemy melee train in a Tier 1 NA Blob fights and still has a lot of survivability, prolly with stealth and blinds. I saw an old video of Yishi doing this “zerg slaying” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J7OYniHrGqE and I’m still wondering if that is still possible after the recent major patches.

Thank you in advance.

My Power Necro GvG PoV

Just wanna share my Power Necro GvG PoV to my fellow necros, it’s heavily influenced with Ascii’s wellomancer build and concept but I tweaked mine a little to pursue a much better survivability and utility, so I maxed out the SR traitline. There are a couple of mistakes I made but feel free to tell me your feedbacks.

Here’s the vid https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tv9vA643H0E&feature=youtu.be

Do you crit? If yes, you siphon health from what you crit.

So if I crit on 5 target, I life siphon on all of them?

Power vs Cond my view

in Necromancer

Posted by: Avalanzhe.5761

Avalanzhe.5761

I was a condi necro for 11 months then suddenly changed to power necro for WvW/GvG reason.

Against organized guilds/zerg, conditions are easily being cleansed and it rarely last more than 5 seconds and the -condition duration from lemon grass soup and rune of melandru. If Necros can stack more condition and can stack fast like engineers, then they might be viable against organized guilds/zerg.

In PvE though, I got mixed feelings about power necro and condition necro, there are instances that one can do better than the other and vice versa.

Hi I’m currently a conditionmancer with full rabid and thinking about on changing to a much team-oriented wvw build and I was reading the whole thread and I really find your build and playstyle very convincing.

I got a couple of questions though:

1. Against an organized/gvg zerg running melandru and lemon grass, will the 1 sec blind and chill be still effective enough even with the -condition duration?

2. Does Sigil of Blood procs on multiple target when using AoE skill or it only affects the main target?

3. If Sigil of Blood only procs on a single target even using an AoE skill, would you consider Sigil of Fire for more AoE damage or Sigil of Restoration for more survivability on ZvZ?

4. What stacking on-kill sigil are you using?

Help, WvW Condi Necro on a crossroad

in Necromancer

Posted by: Avalanzhe.5761

Avalanzhe.5761

I’ve been a condition necro since beta, I like this kind of playstyle since it really lives to the name of the class but recently I’m really having strong doubts about the condition build when fighting organized guilds/zerg in WvW since they can easily cleanse conditions. Before you can secure your precious conditions ticks by using fears or even before you can stack more conditions, it’s already been cleansed. Also I feel that there are skills that has a ridiculous casting time/effect, making it even harder to stack fast and securing those conditions with fears, these skills are mainly scepter 2, dagger 5, Epidemic.

I’m thinking about that it’s time to leave my condi build. So any suggestion what path should I take? Although I would still love a strong team game presence. All suggestions aee highly appreciated.

Since the sigil of paralyzation is not working anymore, with 30 spite with 30% condition duration + 40% condition duration from food + 20% fear duration, and with a total of +90% fear duration, will I still get the 2nd terror tick?

Wishing for a New Legendary Staff

in Necromancer

Posted by: Avalanzhe.5761

Avalanzhe.5761

As a Charr Necromancer, I despised the Bifrost. So colorful and shinny, and the concept of a Charr wielding it makes me think of a Nyan Cat. And I’m only interested on having a staff legendary.

So I’m hoping for a Legendary bloody staff, probably a fleshy type of staff with a hand or anything to hold a beating heart as it’s the head piece of the staff, and then blood drips downward the staff and leaves blood trails as you move.

or just a twilight type of staff..

So here’s my question to ArenaNet, will the gift of mastery and gift of fortune still be the required items to create the upcoming new legendary weapons? If yes, then I guess I can start building my gift of mastery and gift of battle while waiting for a neat Legendary Staff that would be best for my Charr Necromancer.

P.S. Please please ArenaNet, create a legendary staff that would match the necromancer class. For example a Bloody staff, might be a fleshy long arms with a hand holding a beating heart with bloods sprinkling lightly as the hands squeezes it lightly and blood dripping. Or a Staff with the twilight effect.

Imbalances among Healing Skills

in Necromancer

Posted by: Avalanzhe.5761

Avalanzhe.5761

If CC outshines the other heals, I feel that Blood Fiend and Well of Blood should be buffed rather than nerfing Consume Condition.

Just a wild idea:
WoB – buff its healing per pulse and should give 3% Life Force per pulse only to the necro that casted it.

BF – Blood Fiend should also be able to life steal and regenerate its health per attack; also slightly increase the health transfer; and when casting Taste of Death, Necro will gain Aegis and Regeneration.

Q: Well's AoE Limit?

in Necromancer

Posted by: Avalanzhe.5761

Avalanzhe.5761

I can’t seem to find an answer about the Well’s AoE limit?

When you cast a well on a zerg, will it limit to the first 5 target hit by the well and the other player entering the well will not be affected?

or

or is it per pulse? It can hit more than 5 targets in the whole well duration but each pulse still follows the 5-player AoE limit?

Remove Corruption Skills Casting Time

in Necromancer

Posted by: Avalanzhe.5761

Avalanzhe.5761

Imagine if these corruption skills doesn’t have this 1 sec casting animation, you can utilized those skills specially with your Reaper’s mark. The problem is that these corruption skills eats up a second before it is casted wasting precious seconds/ticks from your inflicted condition.

Blood is Power + Corrupt Boon + Epidemic + Reaper Mark is really a powerful combo yet it is easily countered since it takes you 3 seconds on casting BiP,CB,Epi before you can secure those conditions by interrupting your target with Reaper’s Mark; also if you can make your fear last 2 seconds or more would really make this combo more powerful.

It is really disappointing to have tons of ways to remove conditions in zerg fights and the lack of ways to secure your condition stacks is really frustrating at times. and I just hope Anet could read this.

Necro epidemic or wells for wvw build.

in Necromancer

Posted by: Avalanzhe.5761

Avalanzhe.5761

I think the bigger issue is considering wells with a condition build…. the condition damage from wells is not notable, even with corruption flipping boons, the effects are short duration. WOS is complete and total garbage in a condition build. If you do run wells, WOP/WOC and WOD are all okay…. but they are more utility at that point than anything, which would work in a power or condition build.

If you run full conditions, run epidemic. Yes its countered hard, yes its hard to land, yes its downright painful to use in ZvZ, but pets don’t always get cleansed, and not every zerg is as coordinated as the next, and in a condition build it is still your best option.

However, in ZvZ or WvW large scale fights, Power/zerker gear, then the use of WOC/WOS is going to get far more mileage as was mentioned. It cannot really be countered other than getting out of the wells, which if use in conjunction with guardian walls, works great…. 2-2.5k per tick…. aoe….

Wells – Zerker – Good
Wells – Rabid – Bad/Situational (Utility wells)

I really have to agree with this post, to fully maximize wells, you must lean on the power stats, but if you are a conditionmancer then corruption skills are your best utilities.

With regards to epidemic, I just hope they remove the 1 sec casting animation time.

New Legendaries / Rework

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Avalanzhe.5761

Avalanzhe.5761

We still plan to do both new legendary weapons, as well as a clear path (on top of the current random chance) to gain precursors which players can see their progress and understand how much work they have left to do to gain it.

It’s highly likely the precursor concept will involve playing varied different content all over the game to gather numerous content specific materials that are combined together to make a precursor.

We do also want to maintain that chance you could get lucky and earn one earlier through random drops, so when we add the new system we will not remove the current one to ensure players have multiple ways to gain the items. Also with the upcoming update to WvW, there will be a chance players can earn precursors from the WvW rank reward chests as well.

First thanks for replying and giving out some hints that you guys are really planning to release new skins.

But I would like to know if you guys are planning to release a legendary staff that could match the dark-themed nature of Necromancers. I really want a 2-handed weapon for my Necromancer and Bifrost is no where fits a necro. I was hoping like a twilight-like staff or a bloody staff better for a legendary.

Cheers Anet!

Suggestion: Rework Plague Form

in Necromancer

Posted by: Avalanzhe.5761

Avalanzhe.5761

I really love Plague yet really not satisfied the way it is now, specially that you transform to a virulent cloud that gives condition but still vulnerable to conditions. And I don’t get how someone can be immobilized when they are in gaseous form. Just like an elementalist capable of manipulating the elements, a necro in plague form should also have some kind of advantage over conditions while under that transformation.

My Suggestion
1. Combine the 3 current skills with its passive; plague now passively gives poison, bleed, blindness, weakness and cripple in an area around it.
2. Add this skills that manipulates condition received while in Plague Form:
a. 1st Skill: Convert all condition to stacks Might and Regen (stacks depends on number of conditions taken)
b. 2nd Skill: Spread and Transfer all conditions received in an AoE around you
c. 3rd Skill: Consuming conditions creates an explosion in an AoE around you; dealing bonus damage per each condition on you.

So feel free to give in your feedback.

Just had a wild idea and thinking out loud, why does a necro in plague form still takes conditions from enemies? It should be immune or somehow makes it more powerful as it receives more conditions as it is a walking condition during on plague form.

Lets say,

Passive: Every 3 secs converts all conditions to Regen, Stack of Might, vigor, retaliation

Before I suggested a signet that passively converts 1 condition to 2 stack might (10s) every 15 secs then when activated grants 5 stack of might (20s) and cools down for 60 minutes.
