Guild Wars 2

What about some sort of ds overcharge skill, you need full lifeforce to use it and it completely drains you of lifeforce preventing you from generating any for a length of time but you become invulnerable and gain stability for short period of time? Would of course have to trait it for it to he really effective.

how are you getting the extra trait points plz share with me so I can be the most op necro ever.

What would you guys say if they fixed the ai? would a minion cleric build be viable on certain maps?

Your a support necro use woc and wod, the damage on that spec is going to be sub par but you can be helpful with blinds and some aoe healing, but necro only excells at heal when fully traited for it imho except transfusion is pretty good

6/4/0/0/4 dhuum terror build Condi scepter dagger staff rabid dire rampagers carrion, 4/6/0/0/4 switch dhuumfire for path of corruption, 6/2/0/0/6 ds power build dagger warhorn axe focus on some maps staff instead of axe berserker valkyrie. Try those to start.

I know I’m not the first one to do this but I actually started using rampagers on the dhuum terror build… If you don’t get focused immediately someone is in some serious trouble

Any sort of cc completely negates a vamp build. I’ve tried them an played them for a little while now, my heart jumped a little when I saw signet of.vampirism then it was… disappointing . If your not attacking your not healing.

Or corrupt his stability and fear the kitten out of him.

I don’t play a warrior, but if I did I would never stand in a well. Also if I played a warrior as soon as I saw you pop lich I would just run away for the duration of lich come back kill you and teabag you. Shouldn’t ever rely on an elite to win a 1v1.

Stun warriors only cause me problems when its 2v1. If I can get them 1v1 on the rabid dhuum terrormancer I will kill them eventually.

Rabid dhuumfire terrormancer is still the king of Condi necro builds.

There is an internal cooldown, so only that 1 hit is proccing it. Would actually make sense if it procced per hit but it would probable turn necros into unkillable walking siege engines.

you wanted us to tell you what class to hit it with because you don’t feel like cycling through your targets or paying attention during play to see who is actually using boons or not or even what boons they are using. So a few people decided to not give you some kitten answer and try and help you by telling you your approach is wrong to begin with. I said not to lead off with corrupt boon and to figure out what player is using boons so unless your fighting 1v3+ in wvw you should have plenty of time to figure out who to hit with it. Using some “tier” of classes to govern your use of corrupt boon is wrong. I’m sorry if what people are telling you is not what you wanted to hear but its the correct way of using it.

It would help if you specified what area of the game you need a build for WvW, sPvP, tPvP, PvE, Fotm.

Well you shouldn’t lead off with corrupt boon so you by the time you really want to use it you should have been able to look through the people your fighting but typically guardians and eles will have boons up.

There was a month or two where minions instantly attacked and stayed on target… This was also before the vampiric master nerf the minions went back to the only way and I still think it was a stealth nerf to mm vamp soldier builds that in the hands of any player was good, in the hands of a good player you were godlike.

Gotta agree with crazy, we aren’t the best support class leave that to the guards. You will be more valuable as straight dps.

I have so little problems with other Condi users I genuinely get excited fighting another Condi build because I know exactly how the fights gonna go I’m gonna start my rotation he’s gonna start his I’m going to let him hit me with the Condi hits and watch for anything like a stun or fear. Once I’m nice and loaded with condis I transfer then hit ds 5 3 1 dead.

I get while people like wop I just don’t seem to need anymore Condi cleanses. If I’m dying on my necro its not from condis its from some warrior or guardian that managed to get to close to me. More likely the warrior not so much guardians. Signet warriors seem to be the only class i sometimes have problems with.

I actually like wop on power builds just not Condi.

Wow lol shows how much I know. I still think cc and the 4s is enough for me then again I have my own guildy calling me an idiot for using wall and walk. As far as wop you might be right on the highest end but even playing with guildies its impossible getting them to sit on a well. Hell even I hate sitting still.

You shouldnt need anything more that dagger 4 staff 4 and cc to deal with Condi as a necro… What well is a stunbreak…. Wop gives stability but its not a stunbreak. Spectral walk and flesh wurm are the best two stunbreak options most of the time especially in tpvp. In hotjoins in that New deathmatch use Armor. I still prefer dhuumfire over path of corruption.ddhuum terror wasn’t nerfed…. Now as long as your paying attention you can control when the flame tick goes off usually wait till they burn a stunbreak go into ds 5 3 1 very very nice burst.

Warhorn 5 axe 3 staff marks 3 2 wells ds 5 4 1 1 1.

I dunno I really can’t play any necro build without staff…

Don’t use dagger with mm.

I’m in TB on dragonbrand have no problem running with the ball in knights zerker mix, if I do go down I’m usually one of the last.

I would say krait is the best option if your going to use Condi but not using terror. If you use terror I would stay with nightmare.

The dhuum fear build is still the best necro Condi build. Anyone who still thinks its going to be hard to land those dhuumfire hits hasn’t used the build post patch. Rabid amulet, scepter dagger staff, corrupt boon spectral wall, spectral walk or armor, I prefer walk. I still go with nightmare runes but krait would work perfectly as well. I can kill most people in like 8 seconds. The only huge problem with the build is if you get focused and stun locked your kinda screwed.

I destroy mesmers on the dhuum terror build… Destroy.

Soul marks sucks. Sucks sucks sucks sucks.

I’ve been able to hit people with it but you need to real close and literally he looking straight at them.

My golem seems to really like flowers.

The problem is your bursty but not bursty enough to kill anyone before they kill you. You would be better off using the dhuum terror build with rabid.

It was better but whatever happened like a month ago or some patch made them dumb again.... I thought the same thong you did until a guildie told me about it so I tried minions again and they’re. Stupid once again.

Thank you winneh =)

There is so much fail here I cannot tell if this is unbelievably dumb or an epic troll.

not sure if agony will kill them but I think your making everything scale higher and doing less damage than a normal necro also minion ai is kittened right now

The more perfect the ai becomes the more predictable it is.

how’s that soloing stonemist going?

I’m not talking about killing the npcs holy kitten. Go take stonemist from the the kittentiest tier wvw by yourself. Against players not the npcs. You did say PvP was easy.

k ill do that when you solo cap EBG.

Andele are you seriously saying there is a higher skill cap for player vs ai than player versus player. No.

I do play wvw. My guild happens to focus on wvw and I’m not sure if your implying wvw is easier than pve because there is a big difference between following a zerg and spamming your aoe and actually trying to use some tactics to fight groups twice your size or more.

Lol silly pver doesn’t even know his class! It’s almost like pve isn’t the easiest aspect of this game… Oh wait

I’m only kidding man haven’t even tried it.

Build doesn’t work.

Yeah he says that as an answer to almost all my posts…. Maybe in a perfect world… But I don’t build counting on my party to carry my kitten .

I tried approaching it once… It immediately insta killed me with a large bat and its finisher was the anet symbol…

Sure they work…. I’d be willing to bet fully traited fully geared anything thrown together “works” its wether or not the build is optimal is what other players will want to know….zerker is for dungeons until they change mechanics from no damage to one shotting you to a more sustained damage zerker will be the way to go. Now that being said play what you have fun on man kitten everyone else.

It was my understanding celestial is getting a nerf with its crit damage , this healing power buff you speak of is siphoning? That’s already in game… If anything celestial is getting weaker than it was… I must say I have not messed around with celestial too much but if I had enough laurels I would love to try a full ascended celestial necro.

They do not effect autoattack dagger warhorn wellomancer is your best bet.
