Guild Wars 2

I see the potential viability these “sub-classes” for lack of a better word, but will it change much? I see giving existing weapons to the professions changing the way we play a bit, but im not sure, especially in the Necromancer’s case. It has been factually proven that not only the Necro has no viable skills mainly in group content, but it has suffered almost every skill had some kind of class breaking nerf since launch. So with the intro to the Revenant and whatever it specialization it has, even in hindsight it seems like it out Necos the necro (Edit, almost every class out performs the necro especially the engineer.). My worry is will this specialization will even change the way necro is now, or will we just look towards the Rev. Thanks for reading.

Condition and Toughness. Not sure what to say about the third stat since when haven’t heard anything new then again that’s Anet for you.

I agree with you to a certain degree, it’s nice to be excited for the expansion but blasting Anet for giving not enough info is kinda unreasonable. I do see where you are coming from though, Anet tends to go the “we can’t talk about that right now” PR talk when it comes to certain situations and it’s annoying when they do that. Im sure they don’t want to repeat the Occupy SAB situation again, so it’s up to them really.

Your first problem was spending probably hundreds of gold on gear and runes. The meta of going to change, so complaining about it won’t help. As for the meta itself, it needs to change. Now builds will be more than Precision, power, and ferocity.

Im not sure if this bug is just for me, but its been happening for a few days now. On occasion especially in the Silverwaste the music would cut almost immediately

Hopefully the expansion fixes the problem currently with Specializations, but even then I don’t have much hope Necros will be viable again until the core issues are addressed ie; DS, Flesh golem bug and health siphoning are the critical examples.

The video-maker himself created a thread on this very subforum: https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/professions/necromancer/Nemesis-101-ranked-game-marathon/first#post4983861
So I don’t see the point of this thread ^^ .

I see, well this tread is deleted then, thanks.

Necromancer
Life Leech (Downed State): Updated the skill facts of this ability to be accurate.
Flesh Wurm: This skill will no longer activate if a valid path to the target point cannot be found.
Plague: This ability now grants 3 stacks of stability every 3 seconds, with a 3-second duration.
Lich Form: This ability now grants 1 stack of stability every 3 seconds, with a 3-second duration.
The following necromancer traits will now remain active when the necromancer enters the downed state:
Death Magic:
Minion Master
Flesh of the Master
Death Nova
Necromantic Corruption
Deadly Strength
Blood Magic:
Bloodthirst
Vampiric Precision
Vampiric Master
Vampiric Rituals
Vampiric
Curses:
Withering Precision
Barbed Precision
Soul Reaping:
Master of Terror
Spite:
Training of the Master
Chill of Death
Close to Death

Well it might be everything we wanted but it’s a nice step in the right direction. Now if we can have Dhuumfire in Curses where it needs to be……

Well, Foot in the Grave shouldn’t have been a GM trait to begin with now the devs just gave you one more reason not to use it.

Nice to see fellow necros around, haven’t seen many for a few months at least.

It’s kinda the same issue with LA still broken and Kessex Hills with the tower. I’m sure Anet wants to change them for the new players who cleared Orr, blew up the tower in Kessex and killed you-know-who in LA’s breach without taking away the experience from the new players. That being said a separate instance of the map prior to the events happening would be a bit of a problem seeing the scale of the maps themselves plus the possible file size you’d get if it did happen.

I’m not sure if anyone got this nor do I care to go back and check. Ahem, : Black\Dark Magician. Reason why I say this is we already have enough minions with their respected skills, spectral and corruption. What we really lack is the ability to create our own boons at the same creating a good amount of boon stripping. Thieves and Mesmers have such a skill, why can’t we?.

I agree with suggestion, thought I would like minion to actually teleport to the enemy prior to dying and applying the poison field instead of dying on the spot and leaving an unused field where you have to kite the enemy to that particular spot. I also would agree to take that 25% decrease in auto attack dps in favor of more control over the minions. I just restarted running MM after running a few builds including the meta powermancer build and MM seems like my personal favorite.

Wow, Anet no offense but take some notes from this guy he’s good.
