Re: reset – it wasn’t the ‘entire server’s blob’:

And, as you can see on those screenshots, we were outmanned all evening :/

Maybe we should take off our guild tag when sticking to other commanders between guild raids, this “RiOT blob” talk is really annoying.

Chillblains also creates a poison field, drop Putrid Mark on top of that and you’ll have the same aoe weakness you’d get from Enfeebling Blood.

Though this is true, using staff#4 just for it’s blast finisher is a waste. You will want to save it for when it matters (aoe condition transfer), and the odds of a poison field being down at that exact time is low.

I usually spam staff#2&3 on cooldown, and keep #4&5 for the right moment.

Necromancer can basically be summarized by Corrupt Boon. We’re the poor bitter pauper children who get nothing except that one move that curdles the milk and tarnishes the silverware.

One word: Epidemic.

Tough yeah, some might argue that staff and wells are pretty cool AoE stuff.

Oh, in dungeons? Signet of Undeath is a nice addition to the team.

Kidel.2057:

it would be like 56g for 1 poi and 2 vistas…

It would be 56g for world completion. What is that worth, for you?

But I am glad we agree: world completion is possible, it costs a bit of gold though.

Kidel.2057:

The only way to get 100% map completion for me would be to PAY to change server 2 times (so around 20 dollars).

This seems a scam. ANet makes that is impossible for my server to get that map, so I have to pay ANet to get my last 4 Points of Interest.

I have already asked this to other people complaining about completion, never got my answer: why don’t you buy the gems for these two transfers with gold? Why is world completion so important to you? The only reason I can find is for the Gifts of Exploration… which are for legendary weapons, which cost so much gold that the 40g required for the transfer are nothing compared to that.

FYI, keeps flip a lot during resets, did you try your chance at those times?

I don’t understand. PVE players want world completion for their legendaries, right? Those things cost tons of gold… buying a few gems to transfer to an appropriate server and back again costs 40g, can’t they afford that?

(Not that anyone cares, but I got 100% completion, except for the two skill points north of BLs, too far out of the way, without even trying.)

Try this Build :

Yes, wells are awesome. So awesome you might consider IV (Ritual of Protection) as your Death Magic master trait. That’s a 12 seconds aoe protection.

You can also use the 10 points of SR, which don’t seem to serve any purpose, back in Death Magic to get both the trait you chose and Ritual of Protection, or put them in Blood Magic for Vampiric Rituals. That’s what I run.

But yeah, concerning the healing… with perma aoe regen on staff#2, regen on focus, aoe channel heal on ds#4, well of blood… I see plenty of green numbers. If you find yours too low, consider investing in some healing power gear maybe?

You can’t really compare ele and necro, they are so different in every way…

Also, there are plenty of alternatives to well builds (epidemic, …), and many skills bring a lot to wvw combat. Signet of undeath, for example.
