Guild Wars 2

Thanks so much for your advice guys

I’ve never been very good at the scepter but I will give cele a go. Just wondering where the cond pressure comes from besides speccing deathly chill, since it uses dagger and no dhumfire. Also why is corrupt boon not part of the meta anymore?

I’ve been enjoying the new Reaper in spvp, currently I’ve reached sapphire in league. Would like some critique on my current build.

I feel like no matter how much boon strip I take, rev, mesmers and ele reload their boons instantly so I just focused on cleanses and took close to death.

The build has perma swiftness and hold points extremely well, but cant do anything against bunker druid, Mesmer, ele.

9/10 @ NovaanVerdiano. Elegant while maintaining the necro theme, I like it. The weapon choices add to the elegant feel and goes well with sylvari.

7/10 @ Ropechef. Quite unique, the helm and dagger gives off the vibe of a dark cultist. However the rest of the outfit is a bit plain, but can’t quite see the whole outfit due to bad angle of the picture.

You can summon fiend and shadow at the start of the match and then swap the 2 skills out. The 2 minion deaths will give you 22% lf.

This is what I usually do:
When you see them flying at you initially, either dodge or use well of darkness, or spectral grasp. Getting a chill and poison in before they stealth will help alot to slow them down and counter their regeneration. (Use hydro + doom sigil, or staff 3).

When they stealth, go into DS and use 4 and 5. If you managed to hit, they will be immobilized. This let’s you hit them easily with a life blast and DS 2. Then CC them once again with DS 3 and hit them with another lifeblast. By this time they are pretty dead or at least on the defensive and you can finish them off out of DS. If they are tanky regen build, its a lot harder but try to spam poison and chill. Currently I’m using dhummfire which seems to help as I can do good passive damage without landing all of my life blasts (which is very hard to do if they are not CC’d).

TL;DR, Don’t try to go head to head with dagger, use aoe and CC.
