Working on a well/staff build for sPvP. The goal is to do well in small group fights and control the battlefield with AoE and conditions. Not really sure what to do for gear and some of my traits or even my secondary weapon set. Here’s what I have so far.
Key traits:
- Focused Rituals: Have to be able to put my wells where I need them.
- Chilling Darkness: Turns well of Darkness into a snare which is important for keeping enemies in my wells.
- Staff Mastery: 20% more mark spam.
- Ritual Mastery: 20% more well spam.
Key skills:
- Staff Skills: AoE conditions/damage to compliment wells.
- Well of Suffering: Big damage.
- Well of Corruption: Damage and stripping/debuffing.
- Well of Darkness: Damage mitigation with blind, snare with chill.
Now what to do with everything else? This is what I want suggestions on, I’m not confident in my choices here but here’s what I chose and why.
- 20 blood magic for spiteful marks, extra power, and extra condition duration (specially for chill duration).
- Pick up spiteful spirit for a little more survivability and transfusion for group support with undecided trait slots.
- Plague elite skill for great battlefield control and some extra survivability. Chilling darkness doesn’t seem to work with the blind plague though. Maybe flesh golem would be nice to knock enemies down in well stacks.
- Well of Blood as healing skill since the cooldown will be better and with a little healing power the tick healing is actually decent (if you target it away from you, you still get the personal healing).
- Scepter secondary for wearing down single targets and AoE cripple.
- Dagger OH secondary for condition transfering and AoE weakness.
- Force weapon runes cause extra damage is always nice.
- Divinity and Celestial gear because every stat seems to help me in a decent way. I definitely want to switch the divinity gear but I kind of like the celestial.
- No idea what to do for underwater skills since obviously I can’t use wells or the staff.
Also, the trait to make them siphon does such little damage that it’s useless.
