I made Bolt from the Wizard's Vault and Zhaitan's Fang before the beta, and yeah was underwhelmed haha
We got 3 months to see changes though!
I didn't think we'd be in a spot where I'd actually avoid using a legendary skin, but here we are.

I'm sorry, guys and gals. I couldn't help it. I wanted 1h sword on necro so badly. I even made Shining Blade pre-EoD thinking we'd get it. But now Anet has finally given it to us it is...
Another ranged weapon. Please forgive me.

and this relates to the necromancer class how exactly?
Only necros play wvw because its a dead mode.

Repairing walls and gates will no longer award event participation. This alleviates the behavior we've seen in farming Objective Scaling Rewards and "wasting" supply while defending. However, an additional side effect of this is that repairing alone will not progress achievements that require event participation, such as Keep Keeper, Nice View, or Stay Out.
Nice change for smc supply wasters, but kinda sucks for those doomed tower defences.

- Spite: The traitline is, objectively, in a pretty good spot (It could be better but, considering the necromancer as a whole, it's better to keep most of it's traits as they are than changing them).
My main gripe with Spite is that all 3 minors are only any good in solo play. I'd love if they deleted Death's Embrace (it's a trash minor that should have been deleted years ago), and put Awaken the Pain in its place. Then buff Signets of Suffering, so its in line with other signet traits, letting it grant the buffed signet bonus permanently instead of just in shroud.

Wait a minute! They changed ele’s Flamestrike (scepter 1) animation towards the 2nd animation of the axe chain. It’s the exact animation, necro’s once had on axe. Therefore, I guess the holster bug has been fixed, but necromancer are still not allowed to use the original animation?
If ANet can change Flamestrike, they can also change Rending Claws.
Ahhh, I knew it looked familiar. Couldn't quite put my finger on it though.

The duality of GW2 forum. Whining about the state of Warrior and Ele, but wishing to turn other professions into the same.
It's almost like different people have different opinions on how things should be balanced.
Much like Condi reaper with lich form, Mech is fun but in no way should it remain that strong.

At least you are honest with your true feelings on it unlike most Pmech haters who try to come up with excuses for their reasoning on making it bad. I will still disagree with you of course because I love the mech, but I give you kuddos for being honest.
I do love playing mech as well (it has become my main pve spec), but I realise how unhealthy the spec is for the game. Something that easy to play should never be that effective in high end content.

I'd be happy if they gutted mech, so it was only useful as an easy open world spec (like a minion master) but terrible in high end group content.

Let's go wild, new elite signet
Signet of Soul Branding
Elite Skill
90 Second cd
Pasive
Brand your targets soul on every third attack, increasing your strike damage done to your target by 4% to a maximum of 5 stacks. Lose all stacks upon branding a new target.
Active
Consume soul brand stacks to instantly enter Shroud and shadow step to your target, gaining 20% life force for every stack of Soul brand, your utility skills are available while in this shroud. Breaks Stun.Signet of Suffering, Utility skills are always available.
With regards to Signets of Suffering, I'd love if anet would delete Death's Embrace, put Awaken the Pain in its place and revert SoS so it could become our go-to mid tier trait (granting enhanced signet effects all the time, gaining signets in shroud and reducing recharge of signets whilst in shroud).

The year is 2023. Anet finally give in and revamp staff. It's rubbish like almost all their other necro skill revamps. People demand old staff back.

From WvW perspective, there are nercos running power builds with focus and do 8k - 9k Spinal Shivers.
That skill alone scares the crap out of me whenever i play ele.Oh that was meant from a pve perspective! Yeah Power Reaper/necro has had a decent history in the other modes.
-
If I play with a kit, it will be a single kit. I've always hated anything build that involves hopping between multiple kits for a single skill (which is why ele and engi were my least favourite classes for a long time, piano is for some but not for me). Peak Engi experience, for me, was Flamethrower scrapper in WvW. I made my first engi purely for flamethrower and it did not disappoint.

Virtuoso has 114% before runes/sigils. DH has even more than that.
Other not trash classes have more mods, more dmg, more everything.
Gravedigger dps isnt great to begin with and it requires unintuitive aftercast cancel to be usable. Reaper is starved for lf and gravedigger spam does not help.
Yeah that's what I'm saying. Guy I was replying too was making it out like my suggested damage buff would be too strong for anet's liking, which I was calling bs on.

GWEN - Guardian, Warrior (!), Elementalist, Necromancer. The necro was well/staff. It still works fine, it's not quite meta, but it's fine.
Yeah, Staff has been ditched to max out boon corruption. You can still use for more casual pug zerging, but for organised play it isn't great. Suffering/Corruption are still go-to though.

I main Necro but also play Engineer as support in my WvW guild.
11 hours ago, Longpoke.8290 said:Oh ok, didn't realise they nerfed it.
On top of that, WoD removes boons, WoC corrupts them. Oh that enemy has uncovered stability and is using a skill? Now the stab turns into fear and interrupts them, proc'ing Sigil of Absorption, causing another 3 boons to be removed, and you're a scourge with Feed from Corruption, so you gain all 4 boons.

To go on top of 20% damage buff trait to foes below 50% hp + combining rune of eagle, + soul barbs buff... Full beserkers with 25 stacks of bloodlust, 5% damage sigil, 25 stacks of stronger mights
Yeah sure they will lol
currently we have a total of +65% damage modifiers on Reaper without including sigils/runes on top of might and crit damage/ferocity bonuses and yet we're out dps'd by Quick dps builds in PvE.

I don't think I played on the 7th of july 2020 so, I don't how it could have affetcted the entire WvW mechanics. Maybe it affected people that play Gw2 Forums.
Then clearly you have no idea how bad your idea of buffing wells are. They're already the perfect wvw utility and have been (quite literally) since GW2 came out. No joke, they were meta since meta in wvw began. And they have been throughout almost the entirety of WvW, only being dropped during the Epi meta (when Well of Corruption was still taken, but Suffering was dropped). They need no buffs, whatsoever in wvw.
8 minutes ago, Longpoke.8290 said:1v1s: who uses wells in 1v1 anyways... Necros would usually use they spectral walk instead of well of power, and their ridiculous l wurm teleport.
That's because their best use is against large groups. Not every skill has to be good in every situation.
10 minutes ago, Longpoke.8290 said:A focused and well organised veteran group will always bring support and abuse the boon generation. Hence why meta builds are made.
Well you will be happy to know Firebrand is getting nerfed, so boon spam should be slightly less, therefore removing the need to increase boon rips.
13 minutes ago, Longpoke.8290 said:Well of corruption isn't as powerful as people think it is.
There's a reason it has never left the meta.
14 minutes ago, Longpoke.8290 said:Winds of Disenchantment has a 10 player cap,
Well of Corruption has 5.
Check the WvW skill split again. WoD has 5 man cap.

I wouldn't mind changing its current instant recharge function for something else, as its the one aspect of Greatsword I'm not 100% fond of, but I don't trust anet to not mess it up like most other necro skills they've redesigned (which is why I normally only advocate for number increases). That said, something simple like a personal damage buff after hitting a foe below 50% health with it, would be sweet.

Wells should have cooldown reduction imo.
I'm going to hazard a guess then that you didn't play wvw during the 7th of July 2020 patch then? Because they had to make a next day emergency patch, nerfing the cooldowns on all wells (after buffing them the day before - and giving darkness damage), because of how dominate they were after only 1 day of play.
53 minutes ago, Longpoke.8290 said:Boon stripping in WvW should be more effective.
There should be a Rune of Strip to add an extra boon with every strip/corruption. Just like rune of antitoxin.
Considering Anet is about to nerf Sigil of Absorption (well in their own words, fix the currently non-existent cooldown), I doubt they agree with you on that.
56 minutes ago, Longpoke.8290 said:Groups that abuse boon generation are the ones here crying about boon strips.
And here you are doing the very same about boon generation. Funny that.
57 minutes ago, Longpoke.8290 said:Strips are only noticeable in small fight scenarios where there aren't enough supports.
Spellbreaker elite bubble does so much more to boon strip than necros as it prevents them from gaining boons.
A focused and well organised bomb from a veteran group will tear the heart out of most groups, well of corruption being a keystone skill in a bomb (hint - its the only skill that has remained in the WvW meta since day 1, even during the Epi days).
And spellbreaker bubble only reduces boon duration by 33% now, it hasn't prevented boons for months. And also it can only remove as much as well of Corruption, must be placed in melee after 1.5s cast, rather than 900 range at 1/4s cast and has a 90s cooldown vs 40s cooldown

These patch notes look like condi reaper buffs to me. We appear to be back in hot era of reaper balancing, where the aoe power mellee class turns into a single target condi class.
Anet refuses to let Necro have a good power spec. It's condi or nothing!

Wells did have a cooldown reduction and it almost broke wvw (when Well of Darkness gained damage). Anet won't make that same mistake again.

I agree with Dadnir, plaguelands is already the pseudo elite well.
Yeah, it is a corruption skill. But besides the self condition, it acts exactly like the wells.
It's just a shame Flesh golem out dps' it on a power build. I'd happily settle for it otherwise.
Necro Legendary sword effects

Yes please. The silly throwing sword effect put me completely off using my bolt and shining blade skins on necro.
