At the moment I created “The Necromancer Guild” [DEAD], but if anyone has better ideas/objections let me know before it sets in, otherwise I’ll send out invites in the morning. Please be sure to have an open guild slot ready for me!
It’s a fine solution. Will be waiting for the invite!
I know this is from a different game but I find it ironic that different developers managed to make a better version of the deathshroud mechanic for the necromancer in their game.
The necro in Skyforge also gathers lifeforce/souls while outside of deathshroud/lichform, gaining a shield when entering said form and massive lifesteal to recover their hp pool. Taking lethat damage also forces the necro into lichform for a short duration to give them a chance to recover hp.
Maybe Anet should take some ideas from it to truly make us an attrition class that they intended from the start.

You guys should read the damage numbers on the tooltips of your spells because the game calculates the damage you will do based on your cond. damage and show it to you in the tooltip. I ran the numbers using the formula on the wiki 3 times for Blood is Power and got exactly the same numbers as the spell tooltip. If you don’t believe me just remove some of your cond. gear and see the numbers in the tooltip drop. Calculate from there how much cond. damage you make by adding together the damage of all the bleed spells you use and you can roughly calculate your damage. With 193 cond. damage at level 32 I deal roughly about 3k total damage from bleeds alone using 2 from scepter,5 from offhand dagger and Blood is Power to stack my bleeds on a single target once without even switching to the staff for added Mark of Blood bleeds. So I can imagine with 1400 cond. damage at level 80 you do a lot more.
