Guild Wars 2

i dont realy care if i do xx% more dmg with scepter, i like the axe more. It gives good anout of retaliation and vurnability what i can spread with my epidemic

Hello.

So i just bought a Major Sigil of Earth – 45% Chance on crit: Inflict bleeding (4 sec)

Is there a bug that make this not scale with + condition/bleed duration?

Atm i have:
24% Con duration from Food.
7% Bleed duration from sigil in off hand
10% Con duration from traits
20% bleed duration from Hemophilia

Still im pretty sure my proc bleed only last for 4 sec, trying to mouse over and each time it stands 4 sec and the bleed is over realy quick. So is it something wrong here, or just another bug?

iSinner.4285:

So the bug should not be fixed, because in a set up scene, made specifically to identify the bug, you justify it by “the damage done by thief is so high, that the bug should remain” and “the damage made by necro is so low, that the bug should remain”, REALLY? get off of your nonsense.
Here is nothing to argue about, i presented real evidence, it is a bug or a feature, the devs knows better. I gave some feedback about a game bug, i hope devs will take it and fix the bug, or will admit that it is a feature.

What do you expect? You play the class many players find the hardest to survive against or “hate” the most, we have alot of bugs (maby even the class with the most bugs) and you come here an complain/report a minor bug.

Sure this community is alot bether then other Mmo comunitys but still. But we have our own game bug forum section and mmo rule number 1 is: Dont go to another class forum and complain about some bugs/op and so on. You are just going to get yelled at and nothing good comes to it.

Look at the good side, now you know about this “bug” of yours. Next time you whant to smack a necro with your 8k + instant dmg wait to DS is done. Its not hard to see when we pop DS.

Ahh i see, but staff 4 transfers conditions. And a knockdown/back is not a condition, so thats only work on fear and stun right?

Didnt know that staff and dagger 4 break stun. But can that be used when knocked down/ CC’ed? Kinda “new” to this class since i just got back to the class

Im going to run Axe/Dagger while PvE’ing. Nice AoE and im all about AoE

Hello all, playing my necro alt and i love it so far (lvl 50) but i have 1 problem, that is npc that have CC (knockback, stun and so on).

On my main (Guardian) i got used to have stability every 24 sec for 5 and a half sec, but on my necro i realy dont find anyway to get that boon.

I know we have some CC break, but that dont realy help that much when you have aggroed 5-6 mobs that all have some kind of CC.

How do you get around this problem?

Dead Water – I think all the on heal procs is only procing for skill 6.

On hand, do you mean main hand? Torch can only be used in off hand so im whondering if sigil on off hand also can proc on attacks from main hand.

Question:
Sigil of superior Fire – 30% chance on crit: Trigger a flame blast for AoE damage

If i have that on my torch, do the Sigil apply on my torch skill only or also scepter?

The flame blast, is that triggerd where my target is or where i stand?

wel.. The axe 1 x does (2x) x 170 and sectper 1 first attack do 85 and 170 bleed dmg.

wel.. The axe 1 x does (2x) x 170 and sectper 1 first attack do 85 and 170 bleed dmg.This info did i find on the gw2skills builder, so even with no gear the scepter do more dmg only on the first attack.

You send it towards your enemy. it goes into the ground and heal friendly worms and damage hostile worms. Since the worms are so deep in the ground you dont see the numbers.

TanMan.1374:

Facepalm so hard. Scepter is based off precision and condition damage, axe is based off power.

Axe is not terrible just the idiots that can’t build right.

Is this true? Scepter also gain from power right since scepter 1 do both direct dmg and D.O.T dmg.

Joshmans.8937

Eww. iPhone is an Apple product and Apple dont use windows software.

wel, the dagger dont have the range. And Ascii.9726 says that he loves the range on axe.

why did you chooce Spiteful spirit instead of reaper’s might?

Asking since im running some of the same traits you are, but whondering why might over retaliation. Is it due to your high base Power?

Jawapima.6978:

Separate stack from bleed that only our class has access to called Necrosis (insert name here). It can function exactly as a bleed does now, but wouldn’t be subject to bleed stack caps.

It would alleviate the bleed stacking issue for our class. (Or at least mitigate it. We’d still run into the 25 cap with multiple necros in the group).

Would be nice I think.

Nice ide, but it realy a half fix. 25 stack of “Necrosis” can still be easly done if its a few necros attacking the same target.

And its EVEN bether if you put 15 points in Radiance.

To all Guardians and Ashara.5046

Each time i try out (make) a new build i always start with 5 points in Virtues. I feel that this so so good that no place is those 5 points bether spendt.

I see that Ashara.5046 decided to not go for that, what do you guys think. Do you see your self useing a build without 5 points in Virtues?

Ascii.9726:

http://gw2skills.net/editor/?fQAQJhwMLyoppxwlAgesruOHfAZA Would be my recommendation for the absolute must for a Power build.

Weapon depends on what you want more, Axe is much better range but Dagger is more damage.

Hmm, care to explaine abit?

Curious why you decided that well of corruption, warhorn and lich form is so needed for a power build.

aaah stop complaining! sure that trait is not perfect, but that little pet is not in the way for you. Its not like it mess up your gameplay or something..

So much drama, its going to be fix’ed when it get fixed.

Anyway, its always nice when that jagged horror take a kill shot from a warrior for me

dont get that link to work. ( tryed both clicking it and copy/paste it).

Could you use another builder and quickly place your traits please? Kinda new necro so need some advice on builds.

Extra points if you use this builder —→ http://en.gw2skills.net/editor/

:)

When i try this i always get focused down to quickly

Guess this is easyer for a Azura then a “huge” Norn :/

Ocelot.3148
Wel it is often. I Work night time and therefor i play often “alone” since friends and guildmates are sleeping. Sure i play assault group that roams around, and there is guardian ok. But like you i cant play with guildmates/friends each time i play wvw.

Webba.3071
Yeah ToW is good, but its on a long CD and waiting for the CD each time you “need” it.

Hello all.

So i got my Guardian to lvl 78 and i started to think about “end game”. I know im going to focus mostly on WvW since i never been a pve fan. But i realy find guardian lacking in WvW.

Im not saying im useless in WvW, but when i play my Necro alt (lvl 30) i feel that i bring so much more to the battle. Since WvW mostly is Zerg Vs Door i find it realy hard to feel meaningfull when i play on my guardian, sure i jump down and place my Wall and hit hammer 2 before run back into the door on defending a keep. But its realy risky and if the enemy is awake im often getting focus downed.

The lack of a “real” ranged weapon realy buggs me, most of the time i find my self rolling on the keep walls to heal and buff my team mates, while on my necro i can bring good ranged aoe dmg to the fight. Or standing behind the door spamming Staff 1. (Boooooring)

I realy dont like the staff to much since staff 2 is bugged and cant be used most of the time and i just refuce to use the scepter since i cant stand the slow orb speed and the low dmg aoe dot on skill 2.

I enjoy playing Guardian and this is the class i felt in love with at the first day, but in WvW i just feel that my lvl 30 necro with alot bugged skills and traits bring so much more to the fight.

I run with a Crithammer build, have tried a few other build but i always come back to this build. Do you guys have this problem, do you have any advice for me?

Dear Oozo.

I have one thing to say to you.

MAKE MORE VIDEOS.

This was the best Necro footage i have seen on the tube, and the first one i seen from you. going to enjoy some of your other videos when i get home from work

Keep up the good work.

Just a quick question:

So i put 25 of each haloween material and 250 candy into the forge and i got a recipe. Also heard a few other players got the same. Is it only one thing i can get out of the forge when i put those things in?

Do it proc when:

• you start revive
• you finish the revive?

And do this work on downed players or only dead players?

If well of blood scale so good, then the Blood magic 4 trait should be realy good. Creat a well of blood when you revive someone.

True. I use well mostly for another aoe and combo field.

Another question realy quick. Does well’s scales well?

Ok, so its kinda unclear how many target it spread the conditions to, how about the other questions i asked?

Hello all.

Few questsion about Epidemic:

Apply vulnerability on yourself. Spread conditions on a target foe to all nearby foes.

So:
*Is there a limit on how many conditions it can move over, or can it move over a stack of 25?

*Is there a limit on how many types of conditions it can move over?

*Do it move over all conditions or just those i placed on the target?

*How many targets do it move the conditions over to? I guess 5 but…

• Do it follow the timer on the condtion that is on the target or do the conditions get a new timer based on you con duration?

Thanks for the answer LastDay.

so what is it? Is Mammoth right or Dibrom?

yepp, that was one of the main reason i whanted to go for 2 staffs. Necro have realy few combo finishers :/

aah crap. that blows if its true

@Frotee

Try copy/paste the link. Seem slike the forum have problems with links some times.

I also used scepter/dagger on my necro when i played him at release, but i realy dont like DoT to much. Staff i realy enjoy and work nice with combo field i get from my Wells.

I also like the ide to quickly trow out 8 marks

Hello again.

I rolled a Necro at release, but at lvl 30 i decided to roll a Guardian and have played my guardian since. Now im lvl 80 and i miss ranged attack in WvW so i decided to give my necro another try. Played a few hours yesterday and spendt a few hours on a calc

Remember its been a wile since i played a necro, but here is what im thinking about:

http://gw2skills.net/editor/?fQUQJAWWjMaV6Zaea87JAJFPj90DvHX8IFHPMA;TsAg0Cno0xojQHrOOdk6swYgxOAA

So its a Staff/Staff build that focus on well’s.

Why 2x staff? Wel i realy like staff and i was looking for combo finisher for my wells.

Going for Power/prec/Crit dmg on gear and lifeleach for surv.

I get life 30% on crit (sigil), Wells give me life when proced, Vampiric Precision and Vampiric also give me some hp. So what do you guys think?

This build is going to be used in PvE and WvW.

Quick question:

Does Wells scale with something else then level?

Tryed 2-3 times now and i cant get to the royal tombs. Got a few DC but when i get to the tombs nothing happens.

Any ETA about this bug? Seems like it has been a issue for a long time. Also reportet it ingame.

wel.. it might take 9 days for you. but i havent finished mine yet and still a few days before i am finished.

wel.. it might take 9 days for you. but i havent finished mine yet and still a few days before i am finished.Not all play the same amount you know. Its kinda hard for Anet to balance this when someone playes 24/7 and some are casual.

I love crafting, have always been a crafter since the good old Starwar Galaxies days.

But now i struggle with continue my crafting skills, had a blast with crafting a launch and rolled 2 alts just to have more crafters. But when the Tradeing post whent live i felt like it was realy no point to craft anymore.

I have only crafting on my main now, but i have also stopped crafting on him.

So i ask, is there realy a point to keep crafting if i “dont need” the xp crafting gives and not going to go for the legendary?! All i can craft i can buy cheaper on the AH then it cost to make it. I realy think ArenaNet should made some of the crafted gear BOP (Bind on pickup).

again. now i cant edit my post so i guess a free bump.

I find the mace to be my favorit weapon when it comes down to how my character swings the weapon.

to Ynna:

Wel.. i love the hammer in PvE also.
*I use the knockback to pull extra mobs (or not to loose agroo while im getting more mobs)
*I use hammer 5 after pulling a group or 2 mobs and smash em while they are trying to get to me. also a nice panic button if you need to wait a sec or 5 to get your heal up.
*zealot embrace is a nice “aoe” in pve, its easy to line up the mobs.

Ynna.8769:

Depends on the weapon and the situation, really.
In sPvP, I love the Hammer, but when I do solo PvE, it’s rather boring, because I don’t need all the tools it provides.
Sword is pretty fun all-around, and so are our off-hands.
Mace is a bit too passive for me, but I still find it pretty fun in groups.
Scepter is boring, but everyone already knows that.
Staff is weird and inconsistent, but not actually boring.
Greatsword is in a weird spot.

edit: cant quote since what i say showes up 5 times. when i edit the post its shows that its only posted once. Another forum bug?

Hello all, i have playing with a skill builder lately and was about to go for 30% boon duration true runes. That takes up 4 rune slots.

But when i started to look what that gave me, i started to strugle if it was worth it.

“Stand Your Ground”
5, 1/4 sec stability
5, 1/4 sec Retaliation

With the boon duration runes
6, 3/4 sec on both boons instead of 5, 1/4 sec.

http://gw2skills.net/editor/?fUAQNAS5NlYgyC3FyKkCJXg9BCCTBGBfXPcIMkhA;TsAg0Cno6y4lwLbOuuk5syYIyGEA

Here is my build, i plan on playing with alot of boons both to my self and my team, but 4 rune slots for 1,5 sec longer boons seems abit to low for me.

What do you guys think?

Just startet useing this. And it is amazing! I was blownd away about the dmg it did when i placed it infront of a door in WvW. Now i whant to trait it for it to last longer and on a shorter CD.

Been mention on forums and videos a few times. The only problem is: its kitten boring with all that one button to rule em all.

Remeber that we dont have a problem stacking might and might scales poorer with high power. So maby its bether go go for less power and more of your other stats?!
