The only conceivable reason I can concoct for this madness is that some dev thought that Chilling Darkness and Bitter Chill made Necros Vuln stacking “OP”. Were people even doing this in PvP? Was this even a thing?

Oh well. We still have Plague Sending at least (at least until they nerf that into oblivion too).

I was just thinking this, even though i only just recently discovered that trait really. This change saddens me though. Well of Darkness and Plague were the only reasons i even used the Chilling Darkness trait in PvP. We shall have to see if this really makes a BIG change for it or not.

Horror and death metal fanatic, highly empathetic and philosophical, fascinated with emotion, capable of being terribly selfish and completely selfless… Necromancer suits who I am as a human being basically, lol.

I like to suffer the pain of my parties burden by lifting their conditions (Plague Signet), growing stronger for each that I draw. I like wanting to be hit instead of wanting to get away (Spectrals). I like putting the corpses of my enemies to better use (Life Force). I like the image of cutting my palm for power and subjecting my target to the pain I’m feeling (Blood Is Power). I like waiting for my target to feel like they have a failsafe only to turn it against them (Corrupt Boon). I like blood… I like to hurt and to be hurt… You get the idea. I’m a weirdo.

This! Necromancers really are just fun.

The fact that so many Necromancers are crying over 4s of Vul is ridiculous. We should just be happy we still have it get rid of ALL conditions on us still, like so many other classes dont have.

Its still a very easy thing to get rid of for us. I dont even use it in PvP, so yeah im not really getting attacked constantly, so i can take the 4s if i really need to. And this skill wouldnt even make sense as a spectral, so idk why that idea is being thrown around.

A nerf would mean the healing of the skill would suck. They didnt nerf anything about that. It still works just as intended. And speced with Corruption its on a 20sec cooldown. Your all literally gonna complain about a 4s condition that doesnt hurt you unless someone or something is attacking you. I actually enjoy the extra condis. Just Putrid Mark it all away or Shroud it all away. Its really a simple task. I mean come on.

Hello there!
I am looking for a good community to join. I love playing this game, im on everyday.
I like to do everything, i do dungeons daily, ive done a fair share of Fractals, love the PvP, not much WvW experience. I have 4 level 80s, but my main is my Necromancer.
Feel free to message me in game or post right here.

Haha this is a pretty good idea and it totally does fit with the theme they were trying to portray for the Reaper.

Then just pop the CC and go into Shroud. Done. It so pointless to constantly complain about this one nerf. Its 4s. Just dodge and dodge after you use the Heal. There’s at least 2 secs down. I mean come on, we’re the masters of condition manipulation. It will still heal us all the way basically. If you spec it it has an even shorter cooldown. If you rely so heavily on this 1 skill so much than you’re not playing Necromancer right. I just think its ridiculous that we’re all focusing on this 1 little thing here.

Plus they buffed the Staff right off the bat. Increased the area of effect, cooldown by 20%, and damage by 10%, without any traits.

Has anyone thought about the fact the Skill 4(Putrid Mark) with the staff also gets rids of your Conditions? Use CC and use that skill. We have SO many ways of getting rid of conditions. Wether that be with Wells, Corruption Skills, Staff, Heals, Etc.

Maybe they want us to use our other heal skills? I dont even use Consume Conditions in PvP and i do just fine staying alive. Wells all day long! I mean hell, we already have 2 life pools. Crying over 1 heal skill nerf, when they buffed everything else for us. Mostly.

I play wellsteal necro and I can tell you that I know i’m sacrificing effectiveness by sticking with the well theme. Even though I have literally the entire build built around well ticks, I would be more effective with consume conditions on.

Well of blood is just crap and needs a buff more than CC needed to be touched at all.

Well they did put all the Well traits into 1, which is very nice, and their uping the effectiveness of our Siphons. Honestly we all just need to wait for the patch to come out and see how this all plays out. I mean it seems they gave us more ways to heal and help out our teammates alot more than we used to. Shroud skill 4 changes. Ive always liked the Wells for PvP. Im more of a attack everyone and stay alive, more than trying to kill this 1 person kinda satisfaction.
