nah if anything axe and warhorn but greatsword and hammer doesnt suit them they arent “heavy” in anyway if you get my drift necro maybe i guess but i would prefer hammers on my necro
DR has that we call them HoD why mess with the only stable group the server has ever had join them and wreck havok on your enemies
you do know HoD’s WvWers all transferred right?
when did they transfer i saw a dozen of them just last week. but if thats true then we need to fill up a new guild. i technically have one that is ready to go i solo’d a couple of upgrades for it “stone mist council [SMC]” we could make that a DR only guild specifically for WvW
well if you REALLY want tanky i can give you that but i would suggest http://gw2skills.net/editor/?fJAQNBJhNaknjCQ7+w2D6QDkFUobgAo0V9DpjgToEA-TFCGABkittenA6TJItq/kkyPZ1HAwRAwj9HO+BAEA4AY+yX+5Ds8yLv8yL3yLv8yLvcpAqYZE-w instead it atleast brings team support to the party
but since you asked for tanky here http://gw2skills.net/editor/?fJAQRBHhl21ITHlh2FiVIkin4AZBF6GIAKd1/wKk6pyAA-T1RIAB0pEEgTqwsPpgVV/BIlfpq/pi9HCAcAMf5Lf5L/8zP/lXe5lXe5We5lXe5lLFQXLjA-w 4k toughness condition shedding like a baws insane stun breaks and blocks extra 1k toughness for a whopping 5k toughness for 8 seconds after each stunbreak. not to mention over 1k hp regen per second with full adrenaline. you asked for tanky right?

weapon ele do exist i play as it pretty often in dungeons and once in a while in pvp. your idea is basically requesting that ele get a permanent boost to a grand total of 40 available weapon skills without using up any of their utility slots. honestly one things regarding NEEDS to happen and thats fgs and axe get merged and i would personally like to see the rest of them get merged into one skill that changes which on is summoned based on your attunement but it still needs to take a utility slot
The moderators had to do a whole lot of cleanup in this thread. I think this is a valuable discussion and we’d like it to keep going, but it needs to be on topic, and participants need to be respectful to one another.
one of the most important threads in the forums right now and gms are only interested in people being naughty? sheesh what does it take to get some real communication with the dev team around here? hell wildstar isnt half as profitable as this game and the devs are all up in the forums asking players what they want prioritized on the next patch
im so sorry i neglected to run the the forums and dig thru every single build anyone has ever posted to see if someone posted a similar build before ill make sure to edit my post for you
switching the scepter out for dagger is perfectly acceptable its a playstyle thing i personally would run this with dagger because i like the movement. and just for lulz why not check the damage on FGS 2 skill while you have this build open (66600). As usual condi clear builds mess things up pretty bad but welcome to being a condi anything build. anyway take it against a zerg and chuckle as you watch you get bags from people without any condi clears in their build long after the enemy zerg has run away. get used to seeing the number 888 btw since thats what your burn ticks are. oh and you can bleed them too thats also nice…..
-credits to that one guy who also has a similar build and happened to post it before me im sure its out there on the forums somewhere i shoulda necrod but i felt like stealing the spot light
(edited by Rangerdeity.5847)
for pvp cantrips are almost a must a few good builds that dont use them in pve they are pretty worthless with a few exceptions in WvW its a L2P thing until you get great at positioning catrips all the way after you get good glyph of storms ice bow and whatever else floats your boat
this guy is making ascended weapons and he still doesnt know the basics of sigils….. thank you sir for buying and selling gems to players who need them we all thank you
I would pay $60 for a WvW expansion and feature update given they dont do stupid kitten like remove white swords
I would definitely pay for siege skins or toys like toilet paper or paint buckets or eggs that i can throw at the enemy keep to deface it for a couple hours
just tested it in the mists honestly while it doesnt burst like a thief normally does it does put out some very stable damage about 1.5k/sec vs the guard trainer which isnt too bad for killing players since they dont have too much hp. also on target time is amazing and my survival is unparalleled i think ill play some pvp rounds with this build so i can get some decent duels done then actually buy the gear if it continues to work out
the ideal use is scrapping people trying to roam and cutting off the supply reinforcements for zergs usually just picking on upscales in that scenario since an upscale can carry as much supply as anyone really might as well kill 3 of them as opposed to 1 decent player. additionally maybe ele hunting if i get dragged into zerg fights. really need my survival there for sure. so mostely roaming purposes with a little sabotage. and the point of all the ini-gain is to make up for lack of burst with crit damage by keeping up overall dps.
Immediate weakness is clearly conditions. Other than that is has amazing survival and simply excessive dps and gap closing. Very tough to land enough conditions to be a problem as far as i can see. Now im sure you are wondering why i have d/p s/d instead of d/d that is for the combo field/finisher of blackpowder shadow shot then heartseeker until smoke dissipates.
So my lovelies rip me a new one and tell me why i couldnt possibly use this to roam in WvW or for pve for that matter (and no i dont desire to pvp with this do to the lack of stun breaks)
I play transferred off a dominant server to DR because i wanted some fair fights and i wanted to be able to face zergs with a much smaller team and laugh my way to victory. nothing is sweeter than killing 50 with 12 in the open field
How is that for tanky for ya?
Tank doesn’t just mean toughness, based on your link yolk have around 14.5k health.
26k health is a waste honestly if they can get 14k of your hp out then then another 12k isnt going to help you anyway. besides focused more on additional methods of mitigation if you look at traits
I honestly just want an elite signit and a good ol’ buff to the glyph of elemental prefered buff method is three fold the elementals stick around as long as they are alive just like necro minions its only fair its not that powerful like really not that powerful at all. and two give the poor thing some vit and toughness in WvW a havoc squad of 5 will kill it on accident no focusing required. finally make their skills ground targetable with the exception of the stun which is clearly meant to be targeted at your current target
Did they take away the tornado elite from Ele’s?
nerfed it. honestly its only real use atm is forcing people off point in pvp and stability for WvW when trying to get thru a gate.
I run overwolf with this game constantly and i would sell my necro’s soul for a build editor that stored my builds Please anet make the info public thats all you have to do this community will do the rest. all we ask is for the info to be released
How is that for tanky for ya?
Try that not a great roaming build but kitten will it get some scary burns onto the field not to mention a few bleeds. dont be afraid to use fgs just for movement and its 2
http://gw2skills.net/editor/?fFAQJArdhcMqb23wsBdEBCACxrJDFYcvdFLFH-TJRHwAEOBAw2fAZZAAPAAA
still not perfect but you have more endurance now and you have enough power to still deal damage vs condi clear builds and you have life steal on weapon swap every 9 seconds now so a little extra poke and a little extra healing. your great weakness atm will be lack of condi clears so you know keep an eye on who your fighting.
solo engi is slightly easier than d/d ele. however a super duper skilled ele will out do more people than a super duper skilled engi because of the higher skill cap. however in a small team dd ele for the win no contest
alright just questioning since i was kittening around on the builder and it doesnt show the +400 toughness on the skills like it does with ele
GWEN /15characters
This except now ranger is part of gwen … sorta
+400 toughness while channeling…. ok do any of our skills actually channel tho?
cele ele are still pretty good at all game modes just dont tell your dungeon team your not zerker
i chose axe over hammer because movement and range. while wielding either axe or sword spam switch back and forth between lighting and the other elements. I personally prefer lighting rod tho use it with earth shield or lighting hammer while running scepter focus and you can keep an enemy under perma weakness.
…….. so kitten roamers. I dont even roam but i know i dont like the idea of not having roamers floating around
WoC, WoS, Lb, dagger 1, wh4+5, all staff attacks, ds5+4. Certainly seems like dps to me.
meteor shower lava font ice bow 4 dude stop your playing necro like an ele play necro like a necro
Can we get some GM input here?
Epic 3 hour Lord room fights with 3 way zergs would end really quickly if this is implemented. And as long as a group is parked behind the lord, no one would want to attack the tower. I would understand if this is just to scale the HP. But imo scaling damage would make the lord too OP once there is a group together with the lord.
these fights happen like once every 4 match ups and while i would miss them a little. I would miss watching the lord get melted in an instant by 20 players even less.
I meant that in a wvw capacity
eh i find in WvW well of corruption weakness and poison spamming is the most useful we can be go place some poison fields and start blasting also spamming blinds never hurts.
I agree upgrades should also up their difficulty.
This has already been discussed at great lengths and the general idea is yes the community accepts it however the GM’s well they dont seem to read these forums.
Your trash and a disgrace to your server please leave WvW if you think everyone who is better geared than your rare stacked kitten is hacking
I would like to see the lords room mobs scale in power and hp based on the number of people within the towers walls. Similar to champions in PVE maps. This would improve the chances for low dps builds to tag the lord and increase the time it takes large zergs to cap a tower while not inhibiting small teams.
Your idea has been dismissed by the community please stop trying
Support necro just fails compared to other classes… it’s why we go dps or go home.
necro dps fails compared to other classes too…. both our power and condi builds fail comparatively to ele and other classes. All necro is the best at is face tanking
Now that is some nice feedback. The unholy matry was indeed to remain in DS longer and honestly im pretty good with tracking on life blast. The purpose with using this over an ele is for the superior tankyness of necro over ele, as for guardian I just dont like the way I need to get right up next to an ally to heal them makes it hard to heal the backline
0/10 effort guys if you visist the thief forum you’ll see someone necro’d a 2 year old post. truely we have skilled necro players in all parts of the GW2 forum.
would you rather they necro an old thread to build contribution to it or start a new one? honestly you people whine if people start a new thread without searching for an old one and then whine when they search for the old one and try to talk about it some more
you have to consider not everyone who plays the game posts on the forums. there are people with 2k tpvp wins and 0 posts.
true but 1/3 posts in the ele sections is about how kittenty our elites are i thought a possible solution might get more attention
I like this kinda of builds and i always thought that was the most interesting aspect of gw2 to let ur favorite class do whatever you want (in theory).
Anyways, woudnt dagger be better for wvw instead of axe?
the auto attack yes but axe 2 is a good burst and axe 3 gives retal and a nice large radius cripple which is really nice when you collide with the enemy havok squad
Alright now I know healers get a lot of hate but in a good team they are amazing and after looking at all the classes only ele necro and guardian have anything reliable for heals. Ele has horrid CD on waterfields but kitten can they be effective. guardian has a lot of small heals but wow do they have a lot of them. necro has The most spammable of all heals given your aim is good enough to hit allies with it. This build should be unkillable as long as your positioning isnt absolutely horrid too so feel free to overextend for a life transfer. 25k hp 3k toughness oh and your still a necro too so go hit that second hp bar as often as you like since your building it up pretty quickly anyway
Let me say this for WvW. Three cantrips or GTFO is motto.
kitten please i can run 4 signit 4 glyph 3 cantrip 4 weapon builds in WvW lurn2play brah ele take almost no damage or hard CC due to their positioning
Really no additional thoughts on this? The community has been looking for a good Ele Elite i think this would be a possible solution
i tried building for it once didnt work very well …. i gave up EVERYTHING for a few bleeds and burns on the plus side fgs 2 was suddenly very effective if i immobilized my target before using it
Free transfers are bad. Cost to transfer being dependent on your current server is not. Transfering to a lower tier server than your current server should reduce the cost while transfering to a higher tier server should increase it. Transfering to a server in a lower rank within its tier than your current server should also reduce the cost while transfering to a higher rank server within its tier than your current server should increase the cost. Maximum cost should be about $50 while minimum cost should be about $5
Explain exactly why free transfers are bad. Or more importantly what makes you think a fifty dollar (anet your filter is garbage) transfer fee is anywhere near reasonable?
your not a very big reader are you? is a scale transferring from the lowest bronze to the highest gold should be $50 thus the term MAXIMUM, while transferring from the highest gold to to the lowest bronze would be $5. my god people do you even read?
