Oh, please. If there’s anyone that needs to apologise, it’s you. Well of Darkness mixed with Chilling Darkness is one of the strongest utilities necro has right now. It’s because of abilities like these that justify us having such low damage. If you’re going to spam create topics every time you don’t like something, at least know what you’re talking about.
Putting aside the fact minion AI is a disaster right now, I would avoid using any form of build that uses minions, and to an extent, even the Death Magic tree entirely, because of Reanimator. As soon as someone is downed, anyone with half a brain will just slap one of your minions or Jagged Horrors to death and rally from it which can completely turn the tide of team fights. Or if they even unintentionally tag a pet with an AoE and it’s then killed or a Jagged Horror just dies over time while they’re downed, they rally off that, too. This also includes your Lich Form “Mark of Horror” ability. Until Anet changes it so people can’t rally off killing pets, you’ll end up being more of a liability to your team than an asset in a lot of situations by using pets.
I used this spec while leveling. Designed it purely for mass aoe killing as necro is really strong at kiting with the slows from staff and scepter. Basic rotation would be pull one of the tankier mobs with Blood is Power, followed by Deathly Swarm to transfer the extra bleeds, Enfeebling Blood next as these bleeds are the second longest of the rotation, then Grasping Dead, weapon swap to staff and use your Mark of Blood, then cast epidemic, move in to the centre of your pull and drop Well of Suffering, then enter Death Shroud and cast Life Transfer. Once life transfer ends, everything should be dead. If not, just swap back to Scepter/Dagger and use another Grasping Dead as it’ll be off CD.
Scepter of Superior Agony/Dagger of Superior Debility+Staff of Superior Geomancy
Consume Conditions/Well of Corruption/Well of Darkness/Plague Signet/Lich Form
Still playing around with various builds, but aiming to hybrid condition/support as I only play with my team. Would never use this in pugs. It’s still pretty good at 1v1’ing, just takes a bit longer. Can usually beat most class’, but most difficulty with Warr and Thief, and at that, the main point of the build is to turn the tide of team fights via support rather than damage. If there’s a potential kill target, blow your signet if you’ve enough conditions to secure it, otherwise save it and prioritise Consume Conditions if you’re under pressure. Well use is obviously situational, you just need to keep an eye out for buff CDs to use Well of Corruption and try bait them to stack for Well of Darkness.
Well, it was in the patch notes that this quest was fixed, but I’m still getting the exact same issue. Once Tonn destroys the final tower and you clear the beach of undead, all the objectives become ticked off and nothing happens. No cutscene, nothing to progress, Tonn just stands there.
