I’ve got a few roaming videos, but I’m on mobile so I don’t have the link. Basically you should run mostly marauders and zerk (sometimes I’ll throw in some celestial). Also DB makes it much easier, though it is deffinetly not necessary.
Side note: Miguelsil, I’ve seen you vids, I want to duel u

Oh its on now :p sure u have dueled me before on my main account and reaper i think;) pm me at Mikhaelz

LOL dude necro EVERYTHING is slow asf. Only a few shouts etc. I dont agree with slow casts above half a second in any class it limits the skill lvl.

watch my vids and see how i do it with GS on core guard;) also check DoNotD core roaming vids he s awesome.

watch my first core gaurd video and second

build in description

i thimk condi damage should never be as efective as power because theres so many ways to avoid deny power damage unlike condis. know the classses and their rotations cleanses etc and you can get condis on people with100% duration that will burn them easily while you focus on defending urself or runnings away.

i guess thats why myself and most people say condi builds are cheese and easy mode, but sad truth we are being forced upon it.

honestly its PVE you should play what you like and get in a guild non kittened that doesnt care about killing NPCS in the short amount of time possible.

The more i watch ur vids the more i think elementalists need the nerf hammer. Entertaining vid none the less with good gameplay.

Hey. Yeah im thinking of getting exotic trailvlazers since i can get ascended yet. Thats what i am aiming for and get vipers trinkets aswell ill try to make another video of burn again soon but anet made it very hard on roamers with these zerg patches.

should be instant grab on oponent and able to place oponent on our targeted area dealing massive aoe damage where it lands.

Its very stupid that you need crafting for this reason. Imo crafting something should make it cheaper because im the one making it, just like going out to dinner or making it myself at home. I can make the same dish just as good for much less Money spent on the ingredients. So a vendor in wvw could have another 100 tolens needed for all i care as long as it would nt MAKE me craft. So i dont want crafting i pay more money and its ok. The end

None. I use hydro and agility to make sure i hit fast and have a nice litle aoe extra from hydro. But im talking about wvw maybe you want to know regarding pve?

Condis do get blocked if the skills that apply them are blocked.

IMO, the problem is when those skills are unblockable, spammy or apply too much condi too easily. It’s a problem with a few broken, unfun builds. Fix those and people would stop complaining so much.

I heard rumor that some players actually use dodge when they fight against condi specs. Of course some players just stand in one place take 8 skill combo, Wonder why they have big condi stacks and come whine forums.

I ve heard rumor ofmost classes having only 2 to 3 dodges available so 8 skill combo will still get 5 in

I believe rise to be good in 1vs1 or 2 because they need to be atacking not blind cced or killed. Now if it were damage spread among minions regardless of them hitting or not that would be ok. On a smaller duration ofc.

I use this as a tank power reaper.

I ve used it on spvp and got me to t3gold t1 plat.

;)

I believe racial elites should have a shorter cd because none r used in any way due to 180s or 240s cd. Who cares if that race has something better in damage if the other has something better in other things. More diversity and race importance should matter

Instant cast marks. This class is unc9nfortable in almost everything except shouts because of cast times.

Ok guys you win. You are right and i am wrong.

It was to my understanding when the game came out that we would not have dedicated heallers dps etc to end the holy trinity of mmorpgs and now the game has that. Everyone should be able hold their own and have means of viable escapes without depending on others wich was what gw2 sell out as coming out.

That was a crap ideology and I’m glad they’ve changed their view on it. Specialization is not even remotely a bad thing, and neither are healers.

Thats not they told/sold when launching. You like it but truth be told many people left precisely because game changed too much from where it started and what they promised. My Guardian was suposed to have these amazing spirit weapons to aud me in batle and they promoted them as much as possible on launch. Instead of fixing adjusting core problems thet just ignore and move on with disregard to what old players wanted since beggining of the game.

Fashion Mage.3712:

What is it with people and wanting to homogenize everything. Stop pretending that every class is the same and that they deserve the same.

Famine.7915:

That is like a necro asking for an instant cast Flesh Wurm.

that would help necros mobility issues alot. right now they just stand and die with no chance of running from a zerg.

The whole point to necros is that they’re really strong but they have weaknesses (mobility being one of them); thus they typically have a support with them to make up for those weaknesses, and that’s perfectly fine. I’m not sure if an instant cast flesh wurm would be a crazy change or anything, but they shouldn’t get mobility even remotely close to something like Blink.

Tbh any new map is welcome for wvw because 5 years of same maps is just boring. Just as long as its not a underwater one its fine.

How about requiring a friendly targets to clic on like JI even if hes out of reach you can still teleport?

I havent tried core burn guard in wvw yet. Just DH burn

hey guys new core roaming video hope you like it and have sugestions for more videos

Mace is one of my favorite weapons for wvw.

Check out my first video https://youtu.be/tsw-x54xSj0

i ve used it in my core guardian video aswell on the channel, with mace you get some nice melee range options but will leave you open to be kited if you dont swatch back to a more mobile weapon or ranged one

Hope it helps

At least the area required for an ally to teleport should be 600. Its just not usefull as it stands.

I agree. Altho it will not happen.

I have personally tried condi the last month and its kitten easy conpared to power reaper wich i prefer. There are no ways to avoid damage or have high burst that LANDS ON ENEMYS , no stability in amy way efective no evades blocks imunitys to cc. Power reaper is a free lootbag in most fights as to the new condi reapa puts up a fight and actually does very very well. Give a power trait that provides evades on skills resistance etc and maybe we wont get 1stun dead or 1imobilize dead.

Ele sustain and healls bother me just as much as necros burst condi damage right now.

Good gameplay nevertheless

No one cares what zergs of 50 do and has never been a good judge on healthy class participation.

You have it backwards, no one cares about smallscale (I can make huge generalizations too) it is all about zergs.

Wrong! I care about solo and small scale WvW play. Maybe that’s why I’m not having much fun getting zerged down 40 to 1 when fighting one player (actually decent fight not ganking) and he calls the server over.

Hey ANet look at my account and then look at the server I’m on. Tell me how in the world it’s full? Then tell me how in the world are we still a primary server? We barely have enoth players to fight link let alone T1 coverage servers when even with our links we have bottom tier coverage. Really drains all of the fun out of the game mode and the game.

Missing the days of the fights and decent solo, small scale action.

Im with you dude. Zerg fights r nowhere near as fun as solo smallscale and its ruined.

Lazeris.1725:

I mean despite the OP…..Condi Reaper is really crazy op right now. Not sure how anyone can actually defend that class right now.

Because they play reapers most likely. Helly is a prolific viper reaper player and he made vids about how obnoxious reaper is atm and people still tell him hes wrong/ reapers deserve this meta blahblahblah. Not even someone who is an expert on reaper can tell the masses that reaper is ridiculous in wvw.

What makes reaper so strong right now is the impact you can have while being a complete and total braindead player. Regardless of if this/the other thread conveyed this, a totally new player can have the largest impact in small scale and zerging fights by making a reaper getting reaper runes and full dire and just spamming abilities. It snowballs fights well, requires minimal thought behind skill usage, and doesn’t have diminishing returns based on how many reapers are around you.

The heart of the problem is the lack of diminishing returns for deathly chill. It doesn’t matter if its 1 necro or 20, they all are applying the 3 bleeds per chill application. This promotes the meta we’re seeing now with reapers being one of the most popular professions especially in zergs. This meta simply isn’t healthy for wvw imo whatever aspect of the gamemode you play.

Altho i agree deathly chill is very strong if anet does not NERF ALL condis in game leave it be. Necros were not the strongest class regarding condis as the class sugests. Also regarding diminishing returns i do think they should exist but in all forms pf hard CC stun daze knockback.

alain.1659:

Well thanks! I have spotted the problem I guess. My stats are a little bit too tanky to deal damage, and my burst is not strong enough. You are literally playing like a s/f FA ele I shall try it. My only question is movement speed. Isn’t it a torment to run without %25?

Its a bit boring running slowly but i spam gs3 and teleport to get around or just use travelers runes. pack r just for fun and huge dps increase

try watching how i do it. im not perfect and dont use metabuilds i think.

https://youtu.be/kLk20_B3ij0

i also have a video with hammer/longbow if you insist in using LB, altho most DHs use shield sword.

any question dont hesitate

miguelsil.6324:

I much rather see ur vids half comentary and hf awesome sonngs. Maybe do one more directed towards ur signet build and why u changed sigil to torment? Good job

I was probably gonna do one just explaining some thought process behind the builds and why I might use one over the others depending on what I’m fighting.

I think it’d be nice to have a bunch of necro players doing commentaries even if they disagree just so more resources are open to other players.

And how about that torment sigil? I have tried it but seems to not make that much diference. Is 1 stack worth it ?

I much rather see ur vids half comentary and hf awesome sonngs. Maybe do one more directed towards ur signet build and why u changed sigil to torment? Good job

Any queue thats makes me wait more than 5m after i log in to play in the only gamemode i want to is too much. didnt buy the game to wait for permission to play and my server was not full to beging with.

Hey guys me trying out condi builds and both DH and Reapa feel bad… i think all kinds of conditions should be suport damage and never as efective as direct power damage!

Anyways enjoy

https://youtu.be/QYVHmLWO2ug

I ve always had poblems with this and maybe my english isnt as good as i think but… INVULNERABLE means fakyn INVULNERABLE and nothing should damage something or someone INVULNERABLE.

Its not the players fault that servers are full its anets for allowing transfers and pve being involved in this. If transfers didnt have any money cost it would be ok but having people pay more and more amd more its wrong.

Or see how my power build works.

https://youtu.be/2mj20SB3p7U

Don’t want to take anything away from your skill but the guys in those fights where terrible.
The thief watching for 90% of the fight and only stealing on the odd occasion, warriors that got stuck on a fence while you auto attacked, and an AFK mesmer that only tried to fight back at 10% HP.

Again, not taking anything away from your skill or build. Simply stating that you can’t use those guys as an example of a build… i run into guys as bad as that maybe 2-3 times a week and i solo roam ALOT.

True those guys were bad. One warrior has more thaan enough to deal with a power necro but that was for video selection. I have recordings of me fighting better players on druids mesmers etc all classes and fights could take up to 2 to 10m in some cases and it is boring to watch also almost every video of outnumbered fights means the other 2 were terrible. No one should beat a 1vs2 in gw2 if they have half a brain. Still my build focus on having breathing time and lots of stun breaks and entering and recovering LF as fast as possible. For that efect its efective.

Spirit weapon need to SPIRITS so no damage or cc to them at all. Plus they should not disapear till the comand ability is used. Also they need faster movement speed to catch up to moving targets

Or just make it deal the aditional damage always with no hp % requirement.

Its a player that has seen his favorite gamemode being brought down to shame patch after patch. Its a player that reads each patch notes with a botle of liqour near him because he knows everything he asked for has been ignored and quite possibly the oposite has been made.

Delete game and rebuild. Balance will never be achieved. I like all your ideas. But nerf all damage too. No more one shots in any way please.

Marauder’s is also good with zerk/valk accessories.

Marauder is trash on necro. I wish people would stop recommending this crap.

You lose power AND ferocity for precision, the only stat a single necro build doesn’t need. When you could take zerk/valk peices instead and have more power/fero/hp with less precision.

Marauder is suboptimal on necro. End of story.

Hell even WoodenPotatoes frost gun build was suboptimal because it was using rampager.

Thats why i use full zerker :p

Black Frog.9274:

People justifying AFK on the basis of “not being able to get back in” are crazy. The reason there’s a queue is… because people are AFK’ing because they’re afraid they won’t be able to get back in. Since the dailies encourage casual players to pop in to get their 3rd completion and leave, let them get in and leave. The queue will drop. I was on at 10 to 12 central last night (after primetime), yet the maps were full of regulars and there were minimal queues. Because the casuals were done for the day. Geez, leave the map and let the others cycle through. This is one of those problems that people make worse with selfish thinking, like people who try to pass everyone in a turn lane and cut in at the last minute, trapping everyone in the main traffic lane behind them while they wait for someone to let them in.

Do you think i should wait 2 hours to back in again jist because pveers want to farm? They dont wait to pve do they?

Gandalf.1537:

I only need about 55 more hero points to unlock reaper, what’s a suggested build to use until i fully unlock reapers?

My sugestion is go with whatever. Joon a comander in pve and farm those hero points like crazyone hour and ur done

Relax, once the initial hype dies down WvW will return to what it was before the patch. Rewards got buffed but not crazy enough to keep the PvE players interested for very long.

This. All maps were queued in T4 last night, but not so much so people couldn’t get in. That’s day 1 of new content. Day 14 will be a better test.

Spvp stuff this month will draw people’s attention there.

Not so much that people couldnt get into borders? How about over 2 hours queue on the only game mode people wanna play and only have those 2 hours a day tp play?

In T4, for my server, there was never a queue that prevented people from getting onto some map last night. Typically this was green Borderlands because they were too much on the offensive last night to attack them. While there were queues in the 30s for the other maps, it fluctuated. If you want to play wvw you could.

In a week, this will translate to other servers.

You are lucky since in my server and other higher ranked servers 2hours wait period is normal now. They are basi ally saying" dont play till farmers get their stuff" wich translates to wvw beimg left even more empty after all the hype is gone.
