Guild Wars 2

I always find the double range reaper wellmancer staff/axe+focus/warhorn pretty good in 1v1, though against some mobile ranged opponets liek druid or thief it is lacking alot in open field. though on point it is pretty effcient.

oh I had the worst one, when tier 3 asura guard pulled me to a cliff. yeah got trolled by a kitteng NPC

when enemy zerg passed by and you get tossed in it like a f|<ing soccer ball while you see your skill bar black the whole time.

Mikhael? you were with my guild in AG? MERC then MW?

Well, been playing power necro in pvp since launch +-
Necro can kill thief, its all about the build you use and the utilties you bring with you to the fight.

for me, if im on point, it is either stalemate(when thief is being cautious) or the thief dies(when he is aggressive). I play basic wellmancer in pvp. thing is, when the thief play cautiously, he will eventually win the fight in regular 1v1, but since we on point and when thief spending too much time fighting me on point when i have it, he is useless to his team so he may kill me in the end, but I won the battle.

In wvw, it is different story entirely, and there thief can demolish you since he got huge space to maneuver and no reason to get at you closely.

If you play build that is about dmg with no sustain and slow lf regen, dont expect to win fights vs thief. Learn how to use the right build for every encounter.

Cya in mesmer forum. Since they love them more than anything. WHAT THE actual fudge is this excuse for patchnotes.

for bound change when you dodge and stay on air the process would only start after you hit the land(that was before).and now you proccess it in midair if you do it from high enough. it is what I think.

Nothing justifying destroying the basic class mechanic nothing….

its not 2v4 it is more like 2v1,then 2v1 then 2v2. If you fail to see that…and like I said that long 1v2 is nice but I question the one you fight against I think it is not video matrial, and w/o that there is no really outnumbered fight. Which is fine but the video shows little to nothign other than effects and I think you are good at editing but you need to calm down with it and put more raw footage.

Necromancer has plenty of sustain if you trait for it. Constant Might generation will regen LF/Hp via Blighter’s Boon, Foot In The Grave will be your main stunbreak, there are ways to deal with pretty much anything in this build. PS. The well is only to be used on downed ppl for stomping/ressing. And the Spite master trait is up for debate, I’ve tried all 3 of them.

What it does lack is clear dmg spikes while out of shroud, it is more of a pressure build. Great at 1v1 situations but lacks punch in teamfights. The only 1v1’s you lose is against good thieves because they really have few boons to corrupt, and your sustain can’t keep up with thief DPS. Not to mention they can just shrug off that chill.

“good thieves”-meaning all those thieves who knows to just stay away when you on Reaper Shroud and steal your stab when you have it? yeah no need ot be good for knowing that

Yeah no, that is not a very good thief. Your most abundant Stab comes from RS, so that statement doesn’t even make sense.

You know……thief steal skill that thingy that with that trait that umm….steal boons? which they can ummm… steal and still stay away afterwards? so in your eyes good thief fight toe to toe with reaper shroud. Yeah…dont sell this BS to me, sell it to ppl in thief forum so you will kill them….

Are intentionally trolling me or are you just stupid? I never even implied that.

Yep, misread your comment sorry for that.

Khisanth.2948:

No. It causes your next hit after getting the condition to miss which is consistent with multihit skills still being able to get in some hits.

next hit shouldnt be the one you already fired tho it should be the one you fired while blind was on you.

Didnt know hwere else to put it but Isnt blind should get my next move miss? since somtimes I cast projectile and before it reach the enemy i get blinded and that projectile count as a miss even tho I fired it when I was not blinded. I know that applying logic in fantasy game is stupid but I think this is too unusual.

“outnumber” – cept for the long kitteng clip when you fight like the worst players eu(he doesnt even ress that poor necro O.o)
it is you that outnumber one guy with friend than another 1 join you outnumber him than 2 joins all after you done with the other ones than its 2v2

Idk maybe its just me, but to me this video is just effects with nothing to show.

PS: dont take it to the wrong way didnt criticzed your skill or somthing it is just the video doesnt show anything

Well of Devoures
Creates dark field which heals allies and grant life force to you based on the dmg the well does. CD 90s
dmg as well of suffering for 6 sec pulse every 1 sec

Signet of Despair:
Passive: Apply blind to every enemy in 600 radius every 5 sec(need to be in combat)
Active: Gain 10 stacks of stability for 10 sec
cd:90s

I would like to add our weapons with fear, we need more fear options.

Warriors are head on fighters which deals heavy dmg to single target and can burst couple of targets . but targets with stab protection or aegis would be harder for warriors to compete while necros have the option to corrupt those.

Wait but you said yourself boon corruption is dead.

you also have more sustain than warrior if you manage your shroud well.

Also more sustain then warrior? I doubt that.

How do I achive sustain? play with my teammates, managing my shroud and using build which benefit my teammates and me.

That’s an answer that says absolutely nothing.

boon corrupt is dead cuz every 2nd player in spvp takes herald. and I am not talking about 1v1 here this game is not about 1v1. I kill heralds 1v1 fairly easy managing my stab and dodges against thier CC but the problem occur when you have 3 guys on point one is herald one is random other class and you now need to corrupt more which is ridiculous and when you do they just regain it so basically in pvp match if you up against herald yoour corrupt skills are useless unless you fighting against classes which are not herald. and you rarly see no herald in spvp match.

And what i said is answering your question managing your shroud+having teammate for example tempest to provide swift protection regen and w/e can give you alot of sustain I once held off 10 ppl in wvw with tempest 2v10 we won and i have it on record even. And I was almost full berserker.

Suggestion:
What if we will have health regen on shroud? I mean it is kinda stupid that mobility classes can just run away or hide behind obstacles when we are on shroud, they need to have the urge to fight us when we are on it…..

stability should be a given for any necro because their defense is based around hitting. Condi necro will not suddenly be OP with stability. Condition cleanses are a thing, which is why I had no sympathy of whiners in season 2 because the majority of builds then had less cleanses then the accepted condition food pre-hot engi. I’m not sure about season 3 since I took a break then.

The reason why power necro suffers is because it lacks a role, they don’t synergise well with boon corruption which is basically the only competitve aspect necro has left. Lack of stability and focus fireability combined with lack of a decent ranged option will mean they will be even more simply singled out.

That is why when you add stab jsut to power aspects, power necro will have a role.

with what? Boon corruption is strong enough to be a role on it’s own in a boon heavy meta and is very difficult to replace. What will power necro role be that is relevnt and can’t be replaced easily by something which another class can do better.

When you add stab to the already sustained power necro you can be affective as bunker busting while staying on point. This will make power necros a really somthing to be feared in close range and not some ball you toss around.

if you havent noticed, boon corruption is dead. since Heralds.

And how will the power necro achieve this? with unblockables or what mechanic? With which build? What’s preventing another class like warrior to take this role?

Also sustain and power necro? how do you achieve that especially in group fights?

Warriors are head on fighters which deals heavy dmg to single target and can burst couple of targets . but targets with stab protection or aegis would be harder for warriors to compete while necros have the option to corrupt those. you also have more sustain than warrior if you manage your shroud well.

Lahmia.2193:

In WvW, backlining with staff/wells is extremely fun, especially when you are sniping enemies for 10k with your homing Life Blast (now only does the higher tier damage rather than having it split between >600 and <600 with piercing baseline). But yes, for pve there are almost no cons unless you are in an area where melee is impossible.

Hey guys,

In the last 2 weeks I try helplessly contact Anet and complain about this(yes im that desperate).

Thing is, I think they balancing Necros in general according to condi necros rather than looking on the bigger picture. Which means that power necros get no attantion at all, which result in potencially losing the power side of necros for good. I started to worry about it when they nerfed “Rise!”, which to me is only because condi necros been too strong with it.

In my opinion, the thing they can do to balance out the power vs condi necro is to add to power traits such as Decimate defense, close to death, deadly strength or even Vampiric rituals and/or to add to greatsword/axe skills. What comes in my mind is to add stability on some of them for example nightfall on GS should tick stab on yourself.
Or make trait that wells gives stab to your party or just to you on use.

What do you guys think? does it make sense to you lot? or you think it is not enough? or you entirely think this is not the way? if so what is?

My only wish that they give us more stability options. that is all really. But it wont happen since condi necros exist and with the added stab they will be unstoappable.

Thing is, this is the opposite of what thief was desgined for since weapon skills should have no cooldown.

I’m not talking about before change. It was really ok. After nerf it’s not. Or you havent encountered experienced players.

Ah that is different I have yet to play it competitve after the patch
“Not easy to land backstab without this nerf” seems straight forwad though

bearshaman.3421:

Thank you for pointing this out. I feel like people decide if a patch is good or not based on their particular tunnel vision. By that, I mean if the skill or trait or whatever that they want buffed RIGHT NOW doesn’t get buffed, the patch to them is garbage regardless of any other positive changes.

Yep, Tunnel vision. Right. You know, seeing the half full glass ignoring the empty one is just as tunnel vision as it gets. While they buffed very certain thing in the general term called NECROMANCER they nerfed somthing that is shared amongst this general term. I think it is much much harsh nerf to be just swept away with very specific build buffs

And the nerf to Rise? Really? What made them think that was required.

Why do people keep complaining about their 50% damage reduction skills being “over nerfed”? Can no one read?

All professions that had a skill that reduced damage by 50% got adjusted to 33%. This isn’t something specific to Necromancer. Rangers were crying about Guard being adjusted too. I would understand if it were only a few professions but it was all of them that had a skill with this kind of effect.

I’m really disgusted with these forums today. I know people always complain no matter what happens but this was a good patch and people are treating it like it’s going to be what makes them quit the game. For me, it’s probably going to be what makes me quit coming to the profession forums. Sick of seeing people who don’t know how to be grateful.

Why some ppl are so ignorant ?! did you even read the rest of the rise nerf ? if it only was the 33% reduction. they actually add a factor that the minion need to hit somthing AND the factor that the minion die much faster than level 80 firefly

Just because condition necros are strong doesnt mean power necros are! you keep nerfing necros in general CAUSE ppl complaining about condition necros! nerf the conditions not necros. Prolly wont be seen by any dev. that is too bad. Well, I heard thief got nerfed too lets rejoice.

So, they actually nerfed us more this is very sad. instead of giving us baseline vital presence, or give us another source of stability they actually nerfed us more. why not lets kill power necros cause the condition necros are strong

Holl.3109:

Mhhh yea power reaper is weird, you have no active defenses and really need to micromanage your posistioning and shroud use to survive.

1. I legit can’t win versus DH’s. Idk if it’s just me but it just feels like a complete counter against power reaper. It’s wayyyyy easier with condi reaper. Anyone else feel this way? :<

2. I don’t agree with what Ragion said concerning trading blows. Reaper has gotten a lot of dmg mitigation. Easy frost aura’s, almost perma rise uptime with shout trait and on top of that you take 10% less dmg from chilled enemies. Add shroud and spectral armor on top of that and you can pretty much be a tank while in full zerker gear like I do. On top of that, kiting and knowing when to engage/disengage will make it even harder for enemies to kill you.
Unlike condi reaper, to play power reaper you need some skills.

3. And thanks Ragion The greatsword has been a better weapon than that I first assumed. I love the pull (when it doesn’t bug out), and one proper gravedigger can change the tide of a battle…

Posting another GS zerker roaming video soon

I deal with DH, tough fight, but managable for me, I usally use nightfall on point bait thier block and dodge thier heavy hitters like spin to win and the beam-me-up-shorty-longbow skill, I usually beat them but the key, for me at least, is managing your reaper shroud agaisnt them. putting the stab on the right moment, and attacking them aggresively. My knowledge is from dueling DH countless times(about 100 times no joke).

PS: that nerf bat is reallll
PS#2:I’m glad you like the greatsword now I need to get you to use focus offhand

Problem still there, after playing 3 and half years almost I cant play this game no more.
Tried everything, ISP saying nothing wrong, arenanet saying nothing wrong, even went far and did format(among other reasons) and still unplayable. it is so frustrating. Im on middle east-Israel.

It just seems to me you dont really have dmg on him as s/d like on d/p and I know d/p does more dmg but the gap in dmg is not like when I play for example.

That was dope the last song so catchy though

I already went on several steps with Customer support over this and nothing has worked, tried to replace my DNS server which resulted with me having 0 ping and cant do anything but to move around(no even guilds are shown-likei m guildless) and cant write in chat and use skills ect.

Before that it been 2 months now im having betwin 100-400ms in daylight and about 3k-4kms at evenings. This is extremely annoying and I cant do nothing.unplayable.

It wasnt like this for 3 years im playing and I only changed my GPU and CPU in the duration.

Im really frustrated by all this. Have tried everything except using router settings which I dont want to nor can.

Agemnon.4608:

It’s actually the best weapon set because you can dodge, strip boon, and attack all with the same move. You also get stealth and the ability to daze a target if you keep on them, with decent damage too. As if that wasn’t enough you get an extra shadowstep preparing an escape or gap close.

Nope. Just nope.

warrior dmg is far superior than thief. the balance patch didnt changed that, thief got more burst but warrior does more dmg overall. Warriors are in good spot atm not on the future nerf bat and not in the out of meta spot.

If you read my original post on the 1 vs 1 aspect of it yeah warrior can beat a thief but thats not gonna be a actual role on teams. If you make a 1 vs 1 warrior can you beat a ranger/necro or rev of equal skill level? Answer is no

Also being on that list of classes that wont get nerfed what does that mean? This game has pumped 1 class and killed another and all i simply want is multiple classes having multiple options to play at a high level.

For instance before HOT and right before the conjure weapons nerf i was in the AG tourney and the team was on had a ele who used staff with the shield/frostbow/fiery great sword weapons. I played staff ele with cantrips and we did great. This is when the OP D/D ele was still there and we were able to overcome it.

You didnt have that last PvP season when playing non meta builds. This season will be different but saying wait for the nerfs of other classes isnt what i truly want. Warrior and other classes need to have multiple working builds that dont have to be OP but capable of having a impact on the game.

But it will happen and that is how anet works so nothing to do about it but to sit and wait. Like I said warrior is still in better spot than other classes saying you cant beat necro on ewual skill on point is false since CC zerk warrior can and just look at thief that can do nothing alone againstm ost of the classes and bound to +1.

Who are you playing because this is not true. Magic toker and caed during the last PvP season and in the ESL leagues won 1 vs 1 vs bunker mesmer/revanent/ and DH.

Once again if you read my previous post if your playing a zerk warrior how does it compare vs other zerk builds? Im sorry but maybe a bad necro loses to a zerk warrior which is why we saw so many to counter the necros in the ESL league, oh wait they were not there.

Maybe im wrong but with the boost to necros and thieves and these classes were already really good in the hands of really good players only got stronger and you keep saying warrior counters necro when its simply not true and watching the necro streamers of the game show it.

Where have you seen that I wrote warrior COUNTER necro?
Although havent seen ESL, I cant belive MT and Caed took down good bunkers players 1v1 before balance patch.

If you have any sort of corruption now you should be able to crush any Rifle Berserker now. Force the Berserker’s Stance, corrupt, pile on the condis.

If you don’t wanna go down that path that’s your choice, but now Necros/Reapers are back to almost hardcountering many Warrior builds.

A proper rifle warri wont use berserk stance,that means he has sig of fury prob,that means he has full adren at the start of a fight and able to pull of a gunflame early.other than that its a matter of using rush to get out of range so gunflame can recharge and then blast again,most necs are easy to handle on gs/rifle even without any cleansing.

A proper rifle warrior would not run this kittenty one trick pony signet.

Best way to deal with them is to keep 1 stun break and hold your RS untill you get high stack of vournability(above 9) this is when they use it, if they use it anyway it is prolly after they use the rifle barrage attack, so wait for b arrage attack and wait 1 2 sec then use RS#2 and if they change to gs just get out of shroud and CC them or build your lf again.

They are more important issues with that skill.

Zerg surfing was a term made by thieves, basically the x/dagger thieves which were C&d-ing ppl in enemy zerg, which usually ppl are mindless there and dont care somone C&d-ing them on the way. This is what I rememebr this term originated from.

I have it, I love the weapon, but it is much cooler on ranger as the bouncing Astralaria is sweet looking. Too bad ranger axe is arguably worse than warrior axe which is saying something.

Vid? please? anyone?

when the reaper released I didn’t give much credit to the greatsword that came along with it, but after really trying it out (20+ matches with a fitting build) I’ve fallen in love with it It turns out to be much more than the ‘clunky weapon’ that I thought it was.

It’s about time.

Want to see it on vid If I may?

Yeah no. All of those blinds have animations you can see. The only blinds that don’t are currently not used in PvP due to other parts of the skill being weak.

All I’m really getting from your arguments is that you want the skill harder to avoid because you don’t have good awareness.

You will know what im talking about. Eventually. Awareness got nothing to do with it. But my awareness is not at highest since I mostly play after work and during but that is by no means the problem since blind applies before you can react and somtiems comes after you have bunch of other condies it is hard so yeah I dont have super awareness like you do. Care to comment on the 2nd suggestion?
