Looking for Necro direction

in Necromancer

Posted by: Tarnsman.8092

Tarnsman.8092

Recently came back and am looking for direction for building a solid necromancer. Currently running a kind of mm/well bomber mix match with soldiers armor with berserker accessories and weapons.

Eventually I’d like to run some raids once I get ascended equipment built for this guy once I get a good build nailed down. Appreciate any advice!

Here’s my current build.

NPE, a Dont-Play-too-fast prevention?

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Tarnsman.8092

I started a new character last night to try out the NPE and feel I level faster than before so far.

Finally tried the NPE last night.

I haven’t leveled to 80 yet. I plan on doing that with this new guy. 1-80 with no “cheating” from my other characters to contaminate the experience. I’m looking forward to the journey since I haven’t leveled a character to 80 in over a year so it will be fun to get back to some of the areas I haven’t visited in a while and see what has changed in the environment as well as the leveling.

Was trying out the new leveling system last night and noticed my Asura thief now blurs and flips when he dodges. Love it! Not sure how long it’s been like that but last time I tried it did not…

I was skeptical till an in game friend told me I should try it and I must say the NPE (bugs aside) is much better than leveling an old character! You level faster and feel more rewarded. As a veteran player it’s mildly irritating not having an offhand weapon or weapon swap till later but I definitely feel the new NPE is great.

Aside from trait acquisition. That still sucks…really, really sucks. Dear lord please change the trait acquisition.

You forgot about Destiny.. I’m so torn over it because I’m still trying to get my friends to play GW2 with me, but it looks so legit. will probably get eventually.

FYI so far Destiny is great! It not really a true MMO but we will see how it goes.

With the new feature pack GW2 has taking a back seat for me. I’ve got a lot invested in GW (been playing since GW1 launch) so I doubt I’ll drop it but it’s not my go-to anymore for sure…

Your best looking character.

I know what you mean. In addition to that they make these back pieces that stick out over the left shoulder which clips directly into my shield. I’ve resorted to just hiding my back piece and went through the trouble of finding weapon armor combinations that don’t clip…

Sorry can’t fight..
Created an overflow, filled it up and Dc-ed when Teq spawned.

Will try again when the worldbosses are able to be activated trough guildchallenge in a private overflow.

Cheers!

This! My guild kills Teq nightly. We used to get in the map an hour early so everyone could get in till all the PUGs picked up on it and eventually I’d get home from work log in and the map was hard capped already. We moved to a new set up spot and still can’t get in the map most of the time.

I like these hard boss fights but something has to be done about coordinated groups getting into maps together. PUG’s work occasionally but by and large they just want to zerg rush and end up failing the events.

I’ve gotten to the point I don’t even try to get in the wurm event anymore and Teq only sometimes which I try once and then bail when I end up in an overflow without my guildies.

I’d love to see the Shatterer made into a real event but with the current system it would mean I’d be sitting in an overflow most of the time which means I’d quit doing the event like I have the wurm event and soon teq as well if it doesn’t get any better.

To a middle finger.

Seriously, I quit playing my necromancer for over a year cause…well they have problems with minions and that’s what I like to play as a necromancer. Flesh golem used to work under water…kinda.

I come back to my beloved necro with high hopes and minion AI is still broken and I only have one under water elite…one that I don’t use. As if underwater combat didn’t suck enough.

Are there even any plans to fix this stuff?

Weapon Clipping in General

My most current frustration with clipping is my sylvari necros weapons stick out so far from his hips that they are sitting in the middle of his arms with sheathed.

I realize it’s not the highest of priorities but the weapon clipping makes me crazy.

Anet, if your not going to fix the weapon clipping issues (and there are some pretty horrible ones) can we PLEASE get an option to disable weapon sheathing so I always hold my weapons in my hands? Please?

Seems like the wasp logging tools animation is way too long. I have used the chop it all on my other character and the wasp tool takes way longer to come out of the animation after it’s done logging. Please look into it.

At this point I have pretty much quit using reflects and any other CC in my optional skill slots. I find it frustrating as hell that sometimes my skills work and sometimes they don’t cause anet has decided that a particular monsters projectiles can no longer be reflected, or they can not be immobilized, or whatever skill they want to randomly disable this week.

I grinded my way to my legendary about 6 months ago…then quit playing for 6 months. I have to say the whole process for acquiring a legendary is not “legendary”. Came back, made my ascended equipment, and now I’m happy just playing the game casually and hopefully one day I’ll make my second legendary but I find the game to be much more enjoyable not worrying about how much gold I make per hour…

Can we get more asura boots skins! Having just finished my ascended armor it’s kind of silly that my asura’s toes stick out the side of my boots. I’ve only seen a couple of proper boots, the cultural armor that has ridiculous clipping issues and the aetherblade gem store skin.

Just came back from a break and didn’t know about these…must say it kind of makes me angry. I bought the unlimited gathering tools the first go round cause of the convenience. If it were new tools with new graphics that would be ok but the fact that you get additional special resources from a gem store gathering item is definitely P2W…

Hope these items never see the light of day again.

Disappointed with dyes, not doing it again

Posted by: Tarnsman.8092

Tarnsman.8092

Every time I read these I snicker cause like the OP I once bought a few dye packs and got nothing and felt angry. Then I decided to let my wallet do the talking. I buy things from the gem store…guaranteed items. I don’t buy ANYTHING that is random. If I want something that comes from one of their boxes of random crap I save up the in game money and buy it with in game money and make sure it never comes from my wallet.

Speak with your wallet it will get you farther. If people didn’t buy the random lotto tickets they would quit making them. Hopefully.

Wheres New Content?? (State of the Game) [merged]

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Tarnsman.8092

Tarnsman.8092

Try being a WoW player. 8 months without new content, and 8 more until their next expansion!

But someone will point out that a new player will be able to play that 8 month old content for the first time while here, our living history passes and a new player can only experience the after affects rather than participating in the events that led up to the current state of the world.

In the first case the amusement park keeps adding new rides on top of their existing while in the second the amusement park keeps replacing some of their rides.

Truth. Came back after a long break and not only is there no living story going on but all the old “content” is gone so guess it’s either back to the same ole same ole or take another break…

Pace of new content - TOO FAST

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Tarnsman.8092

Tarnsman.8092

Agree with most everything in this post. It’s too fast for us and it looks like it’s too fast for Anet as most of the first week of new content is buggy and needs constant fixing. SO you get new events every 2 weeks that go away and they spend the first week patching the hell out of it cause its broken…

Look at the recent update. SAB achievements are broken, I’ve gotten stuck in objects, etc…issues I never had with the first one. Not to mention you practically need to buy the infinate lives coin to get through all the content. I’ve already sign off of playing this update (mainly cause the needing the coin or grinding baubles for lives) and hopefully Anet will listen to us and slow down as well as polish and qa their releases better.

I have been complaining about this since beta and figure they just don’t care…doesn’t stop me from “bugging” them though. I encourage everyone to submit a bug report for clipping, hopefully one day someone will take notice.

Possibility GW2 Never Gets Full Expansion

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Tarnsman.8092

Tarnsman.8092

I wouldn’t mind more living world content as opposed to an expansion but they need to either:

a) Put more time into it. Currently 2 weeks is not enough time to get the content created, polished, and published. Most of the content has been buggy to say the least and is getting worse with every release. I love the current content but you can tell it was released far, far too early.

b) Add more people to the team to create it. See above.

It is clear that Anet can not put out quality content with the current development time / people working on it. Hell, even the last holographic image was junk. The head clipped through the girls hair and looking up the jawline was seperated from her face…

Like what Anet is doing but they need to think quality over quantity…

I’ve personally farmed at this event a couple of times now and I’m more than happy to fail and repeat.

However, the second I see someone abusing another player in map chat for completing the event I’ll help finish the event just to spite that kitten.

I do the same thing as well. People will cry for hours on end about how they were trolled by someone ending the event instead of just joining the group and killing other champions.

Where's my custom icon?

Something struck me last night as I was flinging blazing blue tennis balls from my eye on a stick…where’s my custom icon for the Eye of Rodgort? It’s no normal scepter; it deserves it’s own icon!!

Of course this is just an example of something I think Anet needs to work on…the little things in life. Incorrect icons, weapon and armor clipping, etc. Granted there are bigger issues but these type of little issues that are left alone irritate me. It’s looks like someone didn’t take the effort to “finish what they started”.

With an increasing amount of mobs being immune to….well everything why would you not go all out dps? Take the queens gauntlet for example. Mobs immune to immobilize, hits though aegis, not affected by stability, etc, etc…not to mention all the one shot kills.

I like my build but seriously considering just saying screw it and investing in some zerker armor and joining the masses of zerkers…or maybe you guys can come up with some proper mob mechanics…

I love the dungeon update. I never run a path more than once per day so I am making more money than I ever did before for doing dungeons. Plus the champion drops are causing people to stop wanting to skip them.

Good job Anet as far as I am concerned!
