Guild Wars 2

Nice, I think well of darkness will work great. Blindness causes a mob to miss 1 attack right? Well of darkness would make ranged mobs very manageable for that 8 seconds.
I notice the melee mobs switching aggro quite a bit, but sometimes ranged mobs will attack me even if I haven’t touched them. And I’ve hid from line of
sight for quite a while waiting for cooldowns just to come out and get tagged again repeatedly by the same mob. I’m curious if ranged mobs like to target the farthest person away maybe? Or if getting close to them would make them more likely to switch targets.

Using Sceptre/Dagger & Staff I can kite melee mobs to death no problem. But when a ranger in AC decides to focus me, or a sniper/sergeant in CM they cause some problems. The snipers put a red circle around you so you know its coming, but a lot of ranged mobs just start wacking you before you know to dodge. I can use death shroud to take several shots, then heal and use spectral armor to take another and give me enough life force to take 1 more shot in death shroud, and we have the staff fear for an interrupt. Utilizing dodges, death shroud, spectral armor, and a fear, I still find myself hiding for extended periods of time, waiting for my heal cooldown. If the
ranged mobs leave me alone I tear kitten up, but I need some fresh ideas for dealing with the times every ranged mob in the dungeon gets a hard-on for me.

I would like to ask some fellow necro’s how they are dealing with ranged dungeon mobs that can 2 shot you. The snipers in cm put a red circle around you so you know what’s coming, but once your dodges are used you’re a gonner without something to hide behind. Once you pop back out from cover they’re right back on you. I also struggle with the rangers in ac. I feel like I can solo about every other mob. I’ve tried using my armor which gives me life force when shot, that gives me some extra time in shadow form or whatever its called, but I find it hard to outlast on the pulls where a ranged mob decides to target me for the fight. What tactics are you guys using?
